Why Doesn't Ash Ever Use His Aura Abilities?

because it's movie only and Ash has powerful pokemon he doesn't need his weak aura.

It's not movie only. Let's not forget that he actually USED some of his aura abilities in a few episodes of DP.

Ash never talked about aura around corni.

Twas a bit sad :/ Movie stuff is never canon to the main anime, it seems....

corni?

Just as an FYI, Ash actually HAS used aura in some of the episodes of DP. In fact, the episode where Spiritomb appeared was a result of him trying to hone his aura skills. Aside from that tidbit, Movie 2 was directly referenced during the Whirl Islands arc by both Ash and James, and I think Movie 9 was even mentioned by Ash with the Phione episode, and Movie 10 (and by extension Movie 11 and Movie 12 since all three were directly connected to each other) had Dawn literally using the Lunar Wing she got in that movie in one of the episodes (specifically the one involving Darkrai). Even the Genesect Movie was literally foreshadowed with one of the specials, same deal with Movie 1 and Mewtwo Returns. The only movies explicitly confirmed to be non-canon are Movie 20 and 21 (possibly 22 if it takes place in the same AU as those two movies). This isn't like Dragon Ball where there haven't been any canon movies until Battle of Gods and any movies that came after it.

He hasn't caught a Riolu/Lucario yet (and I doubt that he ever will).

And this has to do with Ash using his aura abilities... how exactly (besides Riolu/Lucario having Aura themselves. Cameron has those Pok?mon, and he's shown absolutely NO proficiency in Aura.)?
