As someone who never consistently watched the anime, Pokemon Chronicles was fucking rad. Anime should've been arcs based on random trainers and their mini adventures in the Pokemon world instead of focusing on ash 100%.

shitty plot device to make ash lose

I love Richie

Watch it again please. Brock episode was good though.

I don't know. It's nice to see Ash actually become more competent over a few seasons but I do think it's been too long.

Anthony?

>>26396457
He's developed so much that theres not much interesting about him anymore.

>>26395135
worse than cameron

>>26395228
Team Rocket made Ash lose by kidnapping him.

Still no reason they had to make him honor the match when he had been kidnapped and needed to use his pokemon to get back in time.

Kanto League a shit.

>>26395228
It wasn't him. The writers fucked up majorly.

Squirtle is put to sleep by Butterfree and is declared unable to battle (horseshit).

Pikachu is already worn out, KOs Butterfree, then is taken out by Charmander. (acceptable)

Charizard's pre-established character is ignored. Instead of wanting to win because it's the League, he only fights against Charmander because "it's another fire type". Charizard lays down against Pikachu and is declared unable to battle. (horeshit)

I was never sure if Ritchie was a boy or a girl.

>>26398134

A boy, obviously. Even tomboy girls in Pokemon are still pretty girly.

>>26395135
He reminded me more of Red than Ash did tbqh.
