"It's Occam's Shuriken! If the answer is elusive, never rule out ninjas!"That's an easy mistake to make when a game is complicated enough that it seems like every individual piece has a completely different ruleset.

Hope shines brightest in the darkest times

Obviously, that's the point of the episode, but again the reason it works out for Ash is that the writers can write that he wins. The actual rules of battling don't matter.
