Hmmm. I love the photo, Katsu. Pikachu dressed up like that is made of win. Isn't that from one of the contest when they're cheering Hikari on? *Still working on downloading and watching the D&P Raws*
That's from the Battle Frontier Ending. Pika dresses up to cheer on May in the contests.
Why do you think so many people seem to dislike Satoshi/Ash? Is it because of the way he treats his Pokemon and his naivety or are there other reasons as well? And if there's one of Satoshi's character traits that you don't like, what is it?
Long topic xD
Well I know that firstly, a lot of people have a problem with the fact that Satoshi doesn't switch and use his other Pokemon very often. Especially those from the Johto Region actually... and the fact that he doesnt train up his pokemon to the final stage of evolution and power. That's what most find irritating about the anime, the lack of power that could be shown.
I personally dont mind what he does, but I do wish he use Cynda.... xD
There's also the fact that he's been around since the beginning, some are feeling that he's becoming "old" and it's just pathetic watching the same storyline each episode.
Ash and friends are travelling...
TR tricks them somehow and tries to steal their Pokemoon
Ash at the last minute, beats off TR and they blast off.
Ash and friends carry on....
Another point could be that, he's always so focused on just getting badges. He's ignorant of everyone else at time, and especially during AG, he just moves from Gym to Gym earning badges in hardly intense battles.
The way the writers have tried introducing a "new" side to Satoshi, from the end of BF, when he entered a Pokemon contest for the first time to verse May and then entering in the first Shinou contest when Hikari also entered, only to be defeated in the semis.
Um.. yeah, I'm just gonna stop rambling on now...
