>>53778576Can you blame them? There's Misty who had the "first girl" title and she was the most reoccuring character of all time. And that went nowhere, even getting cucked by Pikachu in the final MPM episode.
And then there's Serena, who was having it bad for him since Oak's summer camp, crossdressed as him, literally baked shit for him and his Pokemon to their hearts content. She fucking kissed him for fucks sake and that went nowhere.
Ash is a fucking loser. Having a career is atleast a better distraction for them than wasting their time on a kid who doesn't even know what data is. Especially after traveling with a science geek and having a classmate of a geek back-to-back
