>>44985349Surprisingly, a character whose media runs weekly for years on end has done more than a character who was protagonist for one region and then mostly relegated to cameos and battles against new protagonists. Also, reminder that Red to date has the highest level pokemon of any NPC trainer with his level 88 Pikachu. Ash is also not immune to doing dumb shit even now, such as using a poison move on Kukui's Lucario and having terrible movesets even by ashnime standards on his Riolu and Farfetch'd.
>>44987472>Uses 6 pokemon in a 3v3 matchJust pretending Ash v. Roxie wasn't a thing, huh
>throws a pokeball at a trainer's pokemonAt the very beginning of his journey and only in Origins.
>RhyhornHeracross jobbing to Darkrai despite learning Sleep Talk was even worse
>Edgy kid on a mountainAnd Ash fucks off back home just to be followed up with embarrassing losses to Gary and his Electivire or Trip and his brand new Snivy.
>loses to a newbie trainer each genMixing up canons. See Trip above as well as Paul's Elekid, needs Froakie to save him from team rocket at the start of XY, and fails to beat a wild Chikorita at the start of Johto with both Bulbasaur and Charizard.
>Gets his as destroyed by a rookie 10 year old in AlolaNot true. You can't battle Red until you're the Alola champion, not anywhere close to early game, and you can only battle Red OR Blue. Suffice it to say champions of 2 different regions would be at comparable strength. Again, if you want to see losing to a complete noob, try Ash vs Trip.
