>>41706742Odds are Gou was treated like shit for being a Pokemon nerd by everyone but Koharu, hence her aversion to Ash. She could potentially be wary of him as Gou probably had "friends" who quickly distanced themselves from him after time. The Gou/Koharu background that deals with Gou and his/Koharu's friends will be a big plot point.
>>41706883It's a slow burn kinda thing, like how it took Lillie 30 episodes to be able to touch Pikachu.
