How would the perfect Pokémon Anime be for you? From characters to storylines

I'm not even a big fan of XY, but you are literally blinded by your hateboner of XY if you think it's not.

>h-he's too "serious" and cool. The characters don't criticize him enough aiiiiiiieeee

Yeah, he should be at that point by now realistically after traveling through 6 different regions, especially when traveling with relative newbies. You might think it's boring, but it feels like a natural step from DP > XY.

>reddit spacing.
Go back to discord XYfag. Literally as bad as the SMfags from Twitter

Of course, Guzma was so based that not even Tomiyasu was able to erase all his chad energy.

Utterly pathetic kek.

Based

The which Ash is the best debate is one of the dumbest debates of the fandom. He is the same exact character in Johto that he is in AG, DP, and XY. He had a character arc in Indigo that ended once he won Charizard's respect. Ever since then his character is largely static and doesn't change.

Imagine being an adult and arguing about a children's TV show.

I think XY Ash's biggest issue was that he was a bit 'too much, too soon'. It would've been better if BW didn't hit 'reverse' on Ash's character so hard, but it felt like he became too calm and mature after how he was in BW. Watching XY Ash, you'd think the dude had a completely different journey through Unova than he actually did.
Still, much rather have that portrayal than whatever the hell they did in Unova and are doing with him nowadays. The show's borderline unwatchable in its current state.

The final fight of the league was so bad. I didn't really felt anything

I don't think anyone denies that was is completely flanderized in JN. Even the way he describes his strategy is awful. That's why it's jarring as fuck to see Serena come in an act like a character he USED to be, even down to using his quotes.

Mate, lmao I was on drugs the entire BW series if you couldn't tell. I only stopped them when I started hallucinating an alien abduction plot in BW133. Been cold since then.

Ash is an idiot and has always done idiotic things in each series.

that he is*

Keep enjoying your empty puppet i guess

Ash is roughly the same character in XY he was just on noticeably better behavior around Serena

I wasn't even the person you're arguing with

Keep pretending that a static character is magically different. Whatever helps you sleep at night.

It's the Dragon Ball Super effect.

In XY his idiocy was more down to things he said over things he actually did. There were many times where he said something and caused Serena, Clemont and Bonnie to face fault, or get exasperated. May not be as fun as him actively doing something wacky I guess.

FUCK THE ASH DEBATE, YOU’RE ALL DEBATING OVER THE SAME FUCKING CHARACTER
CAN WE ALL AGREE THAT KOHARU IS SHIT?
