>>58263569>I've been thinking about having this "faller side plot" where a character Ash knows turns into a faller, loses all of their memories with Ash, and the latter just can't seem to help, almost making it look like his actions are worthless; dunno who should be the victim though>maybe May for being the one who hasn't seen Ash for the longest time, maybe Dawn because she's the one who saw him win the championship live, maybe Lillie because lol Alola (Anabel too, but she'd be too predictable and only knew Ash for a few days)>Ash meets Cynthia at one point and is reminded of that one phrase she told him "when two trainers meet, their lives change">that's the ultimate event that helps Ash crawl out of his hole, remembering the fact that he changed so many lives for the better>he faces Imp for real and pays her back for everything she did>he also gets back at Banshee and basically goes "cry about it">eventually, he makes amends with Brock and Misty, apologising for his crashout, and they also apologise for not considering Ash's feelings too>but ultimately, he doesn't know what to do about Face's argument, and starts coming to term with the fact that he may have been right all along>when they finally meet again, both make peace with each other, and Face tells him, "don't give up until the very end">so perhaps he should resume his goals, maybe he'll be able to forgive evil Pokémon and become their friend>he wants to still create fond memories with people and Pokémon alike, he wants to be happy because that’s what matters the most>and if not, who's to say he won't find something else too if/when he needs a job? That's the cool part of adventure, there's always something of worth to take from it>the endAnd that is all the autism. I can't summarise for the life of me, so if you made it this far, I dunno, read Immortal Hulk or something, it's good capeshit.
