>after trying to get away from the Spearows, Ash hurries up to the famous point of his fall
>what the show doesn't show is that his fall was actually much worse
>falling head first on the ground and bleeding from his wounds, Ash assisted powerless as the Spearows pecked his precious little Pikachu to death, gouging out eyes, piercing its body
>as the poor little animal drew its last breath, the menacing birds turned to the human lying on the ground
>overwhelmed by sadness and with his neck fractured, Ash blacked out as the Spearows rushed to him
>Ash was in fact rescued right at this moment by some strangers and is in fact rejecting the death of his friend by imagining a world in which he can live with it forever, living heartwarming innocent adventures far away from the cruel world
>And every day, his mom comes to visit him. But he doesn't respond to anything, eyes staring wide at the ground, with a bleak looking grin, murmuring from time to time the name of his deceased friend
