Ash's first team in the Indigo League will forever be his best team.
>Pikanigga was better in the Indigo League when he had personality flaws like his pride but overcame them with training and experience
>Caterpie being Ash's first ever caught Pokemon only to be heartwrenchingly released as a Butterfree in the iconic Bye Bye Butterfree episode is kino in its purest form
>Pidgeotto was Ash's second catch and useful in and out of battle until it poetically parted in the same way that Butterfree after the league
>Bulbasaur, the straight-laced mature one of the group, was won over despite having a history of fostering abused and abandoned Pokemon and harboring a long-standing grudge against trainers
>Charmander stuck it out only to learn that Damien was a faggot, had his rebellious arc after evolving, and became Ash's powerhouse and the reason why Charizard became so popular and is constantly shilled
>Squirtle and his homies were delinquents who were double crossed by Team Rocket only to get saved by Ash's constant efforts to win it over, eventually succeeding and becoming a regular that BTFOs opponents despite being a cheeky 1st stage little shit
