Okay, on one side, we’ve got the brainiac superhero who, if he’s prepared, is seemingly invincible.
On the other hand, we have the guy who, no matter how crazy the odds or what stupid things he does, always manages to come out on top.
So, the scenario: Ash is wandering the woods trying to get away from some unspeakable evil and falls into an underground cave. It’s dark, scary, and there’s evil in the air, but he’s got his trusty boomstick and chainsaw with him, and of course, his everlasting bravery :rolleyes:. Meanwhile, Batman’s been wandering the woods trying to understand what’s been going on in this crazy town, ends up falling into the same cavern at another end. Covered in mud and dirt, Bats turns the corner and comes upon our hapless hero looking like something terrible, and the fight is on.
Ha! This is a battle Batman cannot win! He cannot prepare for it. See, even if Batman had brought Golbat along, he’s got a far inferior PokeMon to even Ash’s Pikachu, which has learned the advanced thunger attacks and has some good moves like Agility to evade attacks.
I think Vlad Dracul’s got the right sequence. The important thing to realize is that Ash only kicks ass completely when his enemy is truly evil. And Batman isn’t that evil. On the other hand, Ash is the guy with the gun.
Ash always wins by some sort of deus ex machina. For the sake of realism (heh) we have to assume that at the last minute, something will turn up allowing Ash to squeak out a victory.
A battle between TWO guys who always get the crap beat out of them in the FIRST round… but then, come back and win the SECOND round.
They would, therefore, beat the holy hell out of each other in the first round, slink away to tend their wounds and attend their equipment, and then, upon meeting again later, each would then triumph over the other.
Okay, maybe it’s just too late, or maybe it’s this cold, but I have absolutely NO IDEA why I used the word “humor” up there. That’s gotta be one of the biggest brainfart in the History of the SPOOFE. I meant “damage”.
Maybe my fatigued brain is telling me to go to bed. Or maybe I just find humor in the idea of Batman kicking the crap out of Ash, but Ash just keeps coming back with a witty one-liner… ultimately, the witty one-liners will cause Batman to laugh, which will make him crack in two.
