i’m sorry did they actually just say “lmao ash can’t possibly be wanting to actually use oshawott in this league battle, i bet it’s his throwaway for this round” as a quick gag. damn the anime really did shit all over team oshawott while it was airing

#snivy: got a really good personality and is consistently shown to be one of the better battlers while also being a good character #and its evolutions are also shown to be extremely competent and terrifying in the anime #tepig: got a really good abandonment trauma story (if rehashed) that was consistently handled well and is considered to be #one of ash's best pokemon in this gen #oshawott: lmao this thing fucking sucks. imagine ash actually using it and it being good. cringe.#isnt it also hilarious when we show it being beat up all the time. isnt it funny that its like a romancer and it starts all the conflicts #and the pokemon consistently agree its the most annoying and worst team member and make it the butt of every joke #even when we set it up to have some sort of good payoff we rarely actually do that bc we gotta keep the Funny (not funny)#also we're gonna debut samurott late in the anime and it's going to one of the worst recieved characters #im a little annoyed can you tell.#also im just realizing that they maybe added palpitoad so ash would have a ''legitimate'' water type to use this gen #i dont exactly have proof for that but suddenly im getting that vibe. suddenly i like that palpitad even less #echoed voice #pokeani lb #even as a kid i remember the way they treated oshawott upsetting me. especially in decolore they basically just make it piplup 2.0 #where the joke is ''ha ha we beat up the small blue thing all the time and its funny bc its small and cute and its edgy to do that''#au where oshawott like. actually had that arc in operation tempest that i mentioned earlier #i like all thte unova starters im glad the other two at least got decent rep in the anime but the way they treated oshawott #literally like inspired ppl to say i was stupid for picking oshawott bc ''its weak and dumb in the anime''#like. man justice for oshawott
