>>39497971Okay replace Sandshrew with a charmander. Would you be okay with putting a restrictive harness on it and tossing it into a pool? No? Then you shouldn't be okay with a Sandshrew that swims through the earth not water because its a Ground type, water HURTS it.
Also his training wasn't just rigorous, they wer keeling over over from it all while wearing those harnesses that they have strain against to keep moving or being bunched up in a ball. His training is probably causing them injury, Ash is right to think A.J. is a piss poor trainer because he is. Hes basically Giovanni in larval form
