red: completes the kanto pokedex, beats the pokemon league, disbands team rocket and catches mewtwo then sets off to catch mew in the space of 4 episodes ash: has caught around 40 pokemon, only came second place in the /third/ league he challenged, is plagued over and over by the most kindhearted and incompetent TR members and has never caught a legendary despite encountering them six dozen times in the space of 18 seasons of his anime
You haven't watched the anime since the Kanto arc, am I wrong? <3
#spoiler: ash isn't *trying* to catch them all (the motto is a dub thing)#he didn't 'fail' to catch any legendaries#lugia latias giratina reshiram/zekrom keldo and genesect only let him ride on their backs because they trusted him#latias and meloetta fell in love with him#and so on#i think that's cooler than coming to bully mewtwo in the cave where it retreated to hide and protect itself#... maybe idk#enjoy your white screen character and your gary stu'd projection of yourself instead! <3#but don't tag your bashing in the anime tag please? <3#LALALALA POKEMON
