So I've caught up with SM and here's what I've noticed
Ash hasn't really been reset. Sure he acts like a real kid but so did Ash when he first arrived in Kalos. He and Pikachu can still kick ass, even if Rowlet is kind of useless and not very strong.
What does bother me, is that the first few episodes aren't going anywhere. We get introduction episodes from (almost) each classmate, but Ash hasn't done a whole lot. He hasn't caught any other Pokémon and his Rowlet is still useless. I'm sure that'll change after the Hala episode(s) and I hope the series gets a little faster paced.
I like Ash's classmates, especially Lillie and Mallow. The only one I can't stand is Sophocles, he's literally just Max with Clemont's talents. I hope he won't have too many episodes.
KIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
