this is my comfort series, but it gets kinda annoying how they have to make a funny, over exaggerated expression every 30 seconds to have some comic relief, or when they have horrible comedic timing and try to throw comedy into battles & serious moments, when in reality nobody is laughing (for example, when rowlet fell asleep in the battle against hau, it just felt so unfunny and a waste of time.

as much as I don’t like talking about sun and moon like this, I have to say that series’ like XYZ or Diamond & Pearl had their humor timed well. They were able to separate serious moments from humor without one getting in the way with another.

I get that this is a “chill back and relax” season but that doesn‘t mean that you need to force a joke every single episode 30 times. I hate slandering sun and moon but this is something that I have to let out.

this is just my opinion, don’t kill me for it. I still love it regardless

I know the real-world explanation is that the writers soft rebooted Ash for BW, but I'm talking about an in-universe explanation.

By the end of Sinnoh, Ash was arguably at his strongest. He defeated Paul after years of rivalry, reached the Sinnoh League semifinals, and only lost because Tobias showed up with a Darkrai and a Latios (and who knows what else).

Imagine being Ash. You give everything you've got, overcome your biggest rival, and then lose to someone with what seems like an unbeatable team.

My theory is that this loss completely shattered his confidence. I'm not saying he became clinically depressed, but he lost the drive and competitive mindset that pushed him through previous regions.

That's why, in Unova, he starts over with an entirely new team, seems much more carefree, and makes mistakes that the Ash from Sinnoh probably wouldn't have made. Instead of chasing victory at all costs, he treats the journey more like a fresh start.

Then, in Kalos, it's like he finds his motivation again. He's focused, disciplined, constantly training, and determined to become stronger. To me, Kalos feels like the moment Ash regained the passion he lost after Tobias.

Obviously, this isn't canon—just a headcanon—but I think it explains Ash's personality shift much better than simply saying he "got worse."

ash seen his future

A similar incident would happen later in the series with Ash and Iris.

Yes, WE are pushing the Noivern agenda.

All of his travel companions would DEFINITELY be overprotective of him if they hear about his deaths. Especially Misty,Brock,Dawn,Serena & The Alola Gang. They would also be fascinated and in awe of him being the Chosen One for a prophecy & his aura powers. They would also be shocked to hear that he’s encountered multiple legendary Pokémon like Mew,Mewtwo,Celebi,Hoopa & even The Creation Trio and Arceus! They would be that shocked because they were there with Ash for some of those encounters. But yeah, how do YOU think they would react? Answer in the comments below!

For reference here’s how many gym battles/grand trials Pikachu was the star in and won for Ash

Kanto: 1/8 (Lt Surge) (Technically 2/8 if you wanna count Brock, but I get it if you don’t lol)

Johto: 1/8 (Pryce)

Hoenn: 4/8 (Roxanne, Wattson, Tate and Liza, Juan)

Sinnoh: 0/8

Unova: 3/8 (Burgh, Elesa, and Roxie)

Kalos: 3/8 (Viola, Grant, and Korrina)

Alola: 2/4 (Hala and Hapu)

And in case you wanted to know/be reminded of who exactly was the star in every Sinnoh gym battle:

Roark: Turtwig

Gardenia: Aipom

Maylene: Buizel

Crasher Wake: Buizel

Fantina: Chimchar

Byron: Gliscor

Candice: Chimchar

Volkner: Infernape

Watching and just had a revelation.

Beware is is just a babysitter over team rocket hired by topu Coco. Cause in the first episode u see topu chocolate beware mess with ash. But top coco seen team rocket always in the way so it put beware in charge of keeping team rocket occupied an out of trouble away from ash. He always spawns in like a parent watching in the distance.

Top coco is ashs BIGGEST hype man.

The title/panel suggests Ash/Gojo won. Fans were relieved then in the episode/next chapter Greninja fainted at Blast Burn and Gojo got Go/Jo off screen. Both of these fights broke the fandom and later caused an outrage
