Ash rarely, if ever, went out of his way for Serena. They are friends. Then again. You’re the same person who brought up Serena forcing a kiss like it somehow demonstrates a consensual development. Ash at least blushed and flustered over Latias, Serena kissing Ash tells us absolutely nothing about his own feelings.
