You're never going to believe this but after all the backlash to the X and Y ending, his growth over the course of the season, and the strong possibility of the current anime ending soon with the new direction, this time around Ash...
WON.
Yeah, even with the leaks that was a firm, "I'll believe it when I see it," but just watched and he pulled it off.

So is this finally something major that he won? Not just a brass ring that the Orange League win was 2 whole decades ago?

I'm glad. Sun and Moon injected so much life into a stagnant series, starting with the new animation style where they don't all look like they're wearing plastic masks that barely move in the sloppier episodes, a lot of humor out of Bewear and Mimikyu, etc, so actually bucking the status quo is damn nice.

They need to finally complete the anime by having Ash turn 11-years-old.
Or Mr. Mime reveals that he is Ash's father.

I do find it hilarious that the only leagues he's actually won...have been in regions comprised entirely of islands(and funnily enough, the Orange Islands basically laid the groundwork for Alola, being a chain of islands with an unusual way to its league qualification in the form of island-specific trials, and some of the Pokemon on the islands adapting in new ways to survive there).
Wonder how many people are going to be salty that the first official(as in, it was in the games too) league Ash won is in the show a lot of people didn't want to watch because they thought the "animation" sucked(aka, they didn't like the art style, because if they bothered to actually watch the show they'd know the animation is smooth as hell, Sun & Moon was legit one of the most consistently well animated anime over the last several years).

Just saw @sportsnation twitter tweet this. I haven’t watched the show since Krabby evolved, but this still put a big smile on my face.

I have to feel this was down to the vitriol they got from the ending of the X and Y saga of "No really, we're having him win this time... SIKE"
