>>46755215>he just though she was hotEven so, she STILL remains the girl Ash liked the most "romantically", "as a girl". That makes her special. Just like Ash, she aims for the League. Also, her Pokemon are Ground Type which makes her good rival material for Ash.
>how she treated PokemonShe treated her Pokemon decently, just like Ash. Her issue was being a condescending alpha bitch towards the beta classmate kid and even Misty got beta'd by Giselle. That has nothing to do with mistreating Pokemon
>she was only in 1 episodeThat's a bad thing, she needs more media exposure
