Quoted By:
Ash is a massive piece of shit. He doesn't really miss any of his friends after they split up, nor does he really make any effort to meet them again. He just casually bumps into them sometimes, but he really doesn't care about them more than on a superficial level. He also doesn't make any effort to support them unless they're his current companions. He never stopped to watch, I don't know, May winning a festival through the TV. Meanwhile, you have things like Dawn traveling to a whole different region just so she could watch him live, without currently being his companion.
