ITT things you want to see in the pokemon anime

Give pikachu a mascot competitor for Ash, so instead of it being Pikachu everything it'd at last be Pikachu and ____ pokemon everything, and it might freshen up the yellow little shit a little if it had a rival. Some other token pokemon that has to be included into everything and forced down our throats as much as Pikachu, and featured constantly instead of hanging around in a pokeball and to be used once every 10 episodes while Ash mains Pikashit in everything
