Hey! Did you know that Ash's last name has to do with the intro?
Gotta catch 'em all?
Gotta Ketchum all?
Eh? Eh?
I don't think so.
Whatever. I'm DopeLeafeon, and this is the Truth Behind Ash "Idiot" Ketchum.
So, the Pokemon anime is represented by Ash Ketchum, ladies' man, owner of 42 Gym Badges, and Battle Bonder. And to think, he's only accidentallying himself through all of this. His Pikachu is LV. 100, but he loses to LV. 5s. He's such an idiot. But there's a reason for this.
Marketing?
Well...yes, but...
I knew it.
No, not really. Ash isn't the kind of idiot you see every day. Ash is an actual legit idiot. Rotom, shall we?
Absolutely!
*ahem* DURRR SO IT'S A GROUND TYPE AY?
Yes! This Geodude is in fact a Ground-type!
PIKACHOO YOOS THUNDERBOLT!!!
But I just said it was a Ground-type!
PIKACHOO USE THUNDERBOLT!
Ash, you better get your act together!
THUNDERBOLT!
PIKACHU, USE THUNDERBOLT!
POOKACHU LIGHTNING BOLT!
PPIKACHUOHFIEOWFIUIPEJUTTTTHUNDERBOLT!
Yeah. He's that dumb.
If I tell him it's a Ground-type, he uses Thunderbolt!
Wait, you've met him before?
Yeah! I was in development in the Sinnoh region, when he and his friends decided to check me out! He wanted to own me, but he was an idiot so I said no!
Um...okay? But whatever. But have you seen Red? He travels alone, he's the champion of Kanto, and he beat a rival with the type advantage! He's also training atop Mt. Silver to become the very best!
Like no one ever--
NO! Anyway, you'd say that Red's much better than Ash, right?
Yeah?
So that's our answer for today. The reason why Ash is such an idiot is because they want to make the player look cool. You may think losing to Blue once is bad, but when you look at Ash and see how he's doing, you think "Hey, I'm not so bad" Ash prevents the player from rage-quitting, because at times when you THINK you're bad at these games, there's always that one person who's worse than you. And that's today's lesson. Hey, I'm DopeLeafeon...
And I'm Rotom!
And we hope you all have a fabulous day!
