>>33409586>show is about Ash being on a journey to become a "Pokémon master">Pokémon master obviously just being a vague term so kids will continue to follow the show and buy their products>if the term was ever explained kids would just do the task and lose interest>they can't backpedal anymore because other characters seemed aware of the term>can't retire Ash either because Pikachu is the mascot and they can't replace him>Ash is forever destined to lose the pokémon league and learn everything from scratchI am really glad the manga exists, at least they were smart enough to change protagonists before entering this awful limbo
