:::::::6. Now, this is were it gets foggy with Trinity. I'm pretty sure her match against the Feraligatr Trainer is the finals and she ended runner-up, since why else would she be standing next to the winner? At the start of their match, the announcer didn't make any mention of a round, he only said "moving on to the second round of the day", which could mean anything. Since I perfectly explained how Misty vs. Trinity was Top 16, and her match against the Feraligatr Trainer is probably the finals, that means they skipped the fourth round (quarter-finals, top 8) and fifth round (semi-finals, top 4) matches of Trinity, which as such probably took place off-screen. This makes sense to me, because why should they have showed them? She's a minor character. Concluding, the multiple mention of "semi-finals" could also not be an error, but a deliberate choice. For the Whirl Cup, the semi-finals is probably a combination of the quarter-finals and semi-finals, although we will never be sure. In the Silver Conference, the word semi-final was used for the round-robin tournament (top 48), while the top 16 were called the final rounds. | :::::::6.

(:)Wouldn't it be more objective and neutral to just mention how exact ranking of Misty in Whirl Cup is unclear(whether she was top 8 or top 16). Due to so many contradictions and weird ranking system seeming to take place in Whirl Cup? | |||
You mentioned how there were no of screen battles after battle with Ash, but fact of not all rounds being showed in Whirl Cup does give indication how writers may had skipped one of rounds in which Misty participated before facing Ash without being mentioned or covered up. | |||
There also exist various information in Whirl Cup contradicting each other. For instance why would announcer mention both before Misty vs Trinity how winner gets on semi finals and confirming so once again after battle ended? Even Ash, Misty and Brock further confirmed on that through dialogue when saying how they will be cheering for her in "tomorrow semi finals". And logic says how semi finals would mean best 4 trainers facing each other(at least that's how ranking in most tournaments works). | |||
We could apply this to errors, but than how can we know how mention of Misty facing Trinity in "third round" of Whirl Cuop wasn't error too, and semi finals was accurate state of things? | |||
Especially when Misty herself said again to her friend Sakura in episode "Espeon Not Included!" how she came '''Bold text'''top 8, while Ash ended among top 16?'''Bold text''' | |||
There exists too many uncertainties that we can't be 100% sure what place in end Misty reached there varying between top 16 and top 8. Because there exists evidence for both of them to be true.--[[User:Pokemon fan 132|Pokemon fan 132]] ([[User talk:Pokemon fan 132|talk]]) 07:02, 4 July 2015 (UTC) | |||
