The poor boy simultaneously loves them but doesn't really know much about them. You'd think it would be like little boys and dinosaurs, where he would have read all the books and so forth, but then the audience does not learn with him I guess.

Season 1 is weird
>Trading is a core part of pokemon design, and the reason the games are even made the way they were
>strong emphasis on how trading pokemon allows you to get rare pokemon, or develop a stronger bond with your friends

>pokemon anime
>Ash sees a guy win a fight with a route 1 shitmon
>DUDE LET'S TRADE
>Ash gets remorse IMMEDIATELY because he traded away A FWIEND
>DUDE I MADE A HUGE MISTAKE GIVE ME MY POKEMON BACK (while we're all gonna die due to a sinking ship)

ash's never said he wanted to "Catch 'em all!" That's just the whole franchise motto pushed by the intro
he wanted to become a pokemon master which of course he didn't but that's another thing

Given the intentionally ill-defined nature of how to become a Pokemon Master, pretty much everyone conflated "Catch 'Em All" with the notion alongside becoming Champion.

He traded a Bulbasaur for a Raticate, so it was a bad trade, and the lesson there is more nuanced than trading is bad. It's also tinged with a little bit of
>the easy and quick way to power
And as we see with Charizard, that can be disastrous. It's for the best he got that Bulbasaur back.

Not to mention, didn't Bulbasaur have serious issues with who it wanted to be its trainer and specifically choose Ash? It's kind of fucked up to trade him after that, and I feel like Ash's remorse more effectively emphasizes that Pokemon are living creatures.

When did he trade Bulbasaur? Wasn't it Butterfree he traded?

In Electric Tale of Pikachu, iirc Brock and Misty are referred to as Pokemon Masters, so Ash might be one considering he's strong as shit now.

Oh, my bad.

That still makes a lot of sense though, because Butterfree was his first catch and is better than Raticate.
