>>24630879>why do people always think that every mention of the manga implies its canon?Nothing in my sentence said anything about canon.
>So? I just said that Red continued to do shit, not that Ash should do the literal same thing.He went to Mt. Silver and trained. Only thing he participated in after winning was fighting off Team Rocket.
>Already did, losing Kanto is acceptable because its unexpected, losing Jhoto is kinda jarring but he at least got a closure to Gary, losing Hoenn after two leagues of experience makes no sense.What does experience at other Leagues have to do with anything? He was fighting with mostly unevolved Pokemon, against some Pokemon he didn't know about, and against legitimately experienced trainers that weren't just a series of rivals he's fought during his journey.
>As you said, Orange islands doesnt count.When did I say that? I said it's different from other leagues because it's just gym leaders then Champion. Do you have bad reading comprehension?
>Which happened 10 years ago and is meaningless since he never showed being elite four level after that.Sinnoh took right after that, and he was a pretty impressive trainer in Sinnoh, so yeah. His first lost after the BF was against Gary and his Electivire.
>Not to mention that it wasnt, you know, the actual pokemon league which is the driving thread each season.And? The Pokemon League isn't the only way to decide strong trainers. And iirc Agatha, an Elite Four, was the one to encourage Ash to compete in the Battle Frontier.
>le opinion card>no argument>But you are the one who doesnt allow people to hate on the show, not meHow? Who am I to stop you from hating on the show? How have I stopped you from hating on the show? What have I said that has stopped you from hating on the show?
Nothing. Fuck off.
