It's a cool Pokémon, but it was not a good idea, especially since the other two in its trio got less than nothing. Plus, the connection to ASH of all people didn't help. AND it's stronger than a Mega and has Legendary like stats. It would've been cool, on any Pokémon other than the already hugely popular and, though I dislike using this word, overrated Greninja that DOES NOT NEED A BOOST IN POPULARITY WHEN IT WAS ALREADY THE MOST POPULAR OF THE KALOS STARTERS. Delphox and Chesnaught's popularity was never even slightly close to that thing. Battle Bond should've gone to a Pokémon like Pikachu or Talonflame, which despite being decently popular, are not part of a trio they can overshadow. Seriously, at least Venusaur and Blastoise get slightly weaker or slightly less important versions of the things Charizard has and are decently popular. The Kalos starters are a mess.

I'll just clarify again- Greninja and Ash Greninja are pretty cool Pokémon when you ignore that they're part of a trio. Regular Greninja is pretty awesome and I understand why it's popular. But it quickly became a Kalosian Charizard with way too much popularity, especially when compared to the rest of its trio. Poor Delphox and Chesnaught didn't get anything at all. Even Blastoise and Venusaur are popular, are used regularly, and tend to get a similar upgrade or power up eventually after Charizard gets one. But in Kalos, Greninja just got everything and the other two were ignored in everything, seen as ugly and bad, and had no popularity with both the fanbase and the Pokémon company.
