Cause I’m bored :D
Britt: Hello everybody. For no particular reason, I decided to make a list of Ash's traveling companions ranked from favorite to least favorite. These are just my personal opinions, and I’m bored. So here ya go!~
I’m also putting this on Tumblr instead of DeviantART because I talk about Pokemon characters waaaay too much over there haha....^-^”
ALSO, I respect anyone’s opinion who’s different than my own as long as you respect my opinions as well :D
1. Dawn-
Tumblr media
I loved how Dawn was a co-star to Ash and got entire episodes dedicated to her and only her. I also found her contests more realistic and exciting to watch than May's. 
2. May-
Tumblr media
Other than May's contests, I'd say she was a pretty relatable character. She just wanted to travel the world, and she didn't care for Pokemon at first (like how people in real life don't really like animals.) I also liked her relationship with her brother (despite me not liking Max.)
3. Iris-
Tumblr media
Oh, the horror! Iris is a favorite of mine! But in all seriousness, I loved Iris. Tomboy characters are usually the ones I favor over the more girly characters, but Dawn stood out to me more and that's why she's my #1 and not Iris. I also thought Iris was bad-ass. Her calling Ash a kid got old and annoying fast but that's the ONLY reason I see for why people don't like her, and I think outside of that she was a pretty unique Pokemon character.
4. Clemont-
Tumblr media
I liked Clemont the most out of Ash's male companions, because he was the first one who felt like a best buddy/bro to Ash. Brock and Cilan felt more like mentors or older siblings he couldn't really relate to, but Ash and Clemont I'd say, bonded well and felt like they were closer to equals (even if Ash was worshiped by damn near everybody in XY.) His gag got old, but pretty much any character who has a gag got old super quickly.
5. Lillie-
Tumblr media
I think Lillie has had some good character development. She got over her fear of Pokemon and stood up to her mother. Plus she seems like the only female in Sun/Moon that the writers are bothering to put any effort into. I also like her character design. I haven't played very many Pokemon games, but when Sun/Moon first came out, Lillie looked like a spoiled rich girl. I'm glad she didn't turn out to be that way.
6. Bonnie-
Tumblr media
Honestly, I just thought Bonnie was a less annoying and more competent version of Max. Her gag got old (just like everyone else's), but she didn't piss me off like Max did, plus she seemed a lot more mature than him despite Max acting like he was "mature" when he clearly wasn't. She also had her own Pokemon, which gave her the responsibility of raising her own. Plus, she's adorable :)
7. Lana-
Tumblr media
Again, the Sun/Moon girls don't have a lot going for them, but I like Lana. She's cute and I like her personality and her quiet voice.
8. Brock-
Tumblr media
Tbh, Brock doesn't have a lot going for him (to me) other than nostalgia. Just like everyone else's running gag, his got old suuuuuuper quickly. And the fact that he was with Ash in 4 different regions made it worse and annoying. He's still better than Cilan, though. And he could be funny, and he was like Ash's older brother.
9. Kiawe-
Tumblr media
I dunno how to feel about the Sun/Moon guys, either. Honestly, it feels like Ash is taking the majority of the screentime like he did in XY, so I don't really care for anyone else besides Lillie and Lana. Kiawe's pretty alright I guess, though. 
10. Sophocles-
Tumblr media
Same for Sophocles. I dunno how to feel about him. I thought he was similar to Clemont by a lot, but Clemont has a charm to him that Sophocles doesn't. Idk :/
11. Mallow-
Tumblr media
Mallow is just kinda boring to me. She doesn't do much of anything at all in the show. Even Lana does more than her, and Lana hardly does anything, too! It's really sad. I hope the writers pay more attention to her eventually.
12. Cilan-
Tumblr media
Cilan annoyed me more than Iris did, yet people still found Iris to be unbearable while giving Cilan a free pass. My favorite thing about Cilan was his voice, cause I really like Jason Griffith. Otherwise, didn't care for him that much.
13. Tracey-
Tumblr media
Imma be honest, I almost forgot he existed lmao (like most people do.) Tracey was alright. I didn't hate his guts for replacing Brock like most others did, and I liked that he was an artist (like me) but he was kinda just...there. He didn't do much of anything. He was boring and plain.
14. Verity-
Tumblr media
She's ok. Felt like a mixture of Misty and Dawn. Didn’t get a lot of time to know much about her or Sorrel.
15. Sorrel-
Tumblr media
Meh. His Luxray died cause of him. Kinda sucky.
16. Misty-
Tumblr media
Probably not gonna make many friends putting Misty so low on the list, but eh....I don't really like her. Same with Brock, she doesn't have much that makes her "better" than the others other than nostalgia. She used to be my most hated companion of Ash's till Serena came along, though. I don't hate her anymore, and I don't even dislike her as much as I used to. But I don't think she's all that great, either. People harp on Iris for teasing Ash and calling out his stupidity when he SHOULD'VE been a lot smarter than he was, but then they'll let Misty get away with hitting both Ash AND Brock, and yelling at Ash for being a complete noob. I personally don't think that's fair, but hey. What do I know? Plus, once she got Togepi, she was boring and lifeless.
17. Max-
Tumblr media
Max was annoying and he did a lot of things that I hate about kids. He acts like a know-it-all, treats Ash and May like they're retarded, and whines all the time. I hated it. He made fun of Ash for losing the Johto League, and then cries and steal's Ash's badge from him when he beats his GYM LEADER DAD at a gym battle! I just couldn't stand this kid. He had a more realistic relationship with May than Clemont did with Bonnie, but that's probably another reason I didn't care for him. Younger siblings suck. I thought he was OK in the Jirachi movie, though.
18. Serena-
Tumblr media
Aaaaaaand lastly, Serena. Along time ago, Misty would've been here instead of Serena, but Serena's fans have made me borderline despise her. I already didn't care for her character, and her worshipers put her in an even worse light for me. But I thought Serena was a boring, girly, passive stereotype who's only "unique" quality is her crush on Ash, anyway. I didn't dislike her immediately, though. In fact, I went the first couple episodes actually liking her and I thought she had great potential. But, that went away. Fast. Plus, her goal...was not that great. Felt like a sexist rip-off of contests. And her "rivals" were incompetent. She beat them every time (not including Aria.) Plus from what I hear, showcases are based off of Japanese idol culture. If that's true, Serena wouldn't get to date Ash anyway. Too bad :/ At least she’s the prettiest I suppose.
I'll add the characters from the 21st movie once I've watched it :)

I really liked Ash’s companions in the new movie.
Sorrel/Souji had a compelling backstory that puts many of his actions and dialogue in a new light after you learn it. Verity/Makoto had a great personality and the implications about her motivations have potential for a future story.
Tumblr media
I hope they return in future movies and become Ash’s default companions when it comes to the movies; kind of like how Lina Inverse from Slayers had different companions/sidekicks depending on wether it was the anime or the movies and specials. As a plus, movies wouldn’t have to adhere too much to the anime from now on.

Pokemon: I choose you! *Warning this may contain spoilers!*
I have finally watched Pokemon: I choose you! (the Movie) and got to say, that movie was EPIC! <3
To be honest, before I watched the Movie, I really didn’t understand what the movie was going to be about? I mean, haven’t we already have a story of how Ash started his journey 20 years ago? But this movie have so many surprises, and they aren’t bad. For one, I’m glad they rectified the part how Charmander, after evolving, obeyed Ash and still carried that same personality when he was a Charmander i.e. loyal and loving towards Ash, because I have to be honest, I didn’t like how Charmander, after evolving in the original anime disobeyed Ash like that because that really did scarred me in a subconscious level >.< Like, every time his Pokemon evolved, I always worried that they will become like that, but I guess Charmander was a “special” case from the original writers... (One I didn’t appreciate though). I don’t like it when Pokemon disobey Ash, so how the Movie changed that, and have Charmeleon still obey Ash, I LOVE it!! <3 And as a bonus, we have Charmander running towards Ash after his victory against Jigglypuff, being so happy with the win:
Tumblr media
And then, it evolves into Charmeleon! And just look at that smile(and happiness)! <3
Tumblr media
And not just that, but we even get a hug between him and Ash! <3
Tumblr media
Aww ~
Tumblr media
Thanks, directors, writers to this Movie! Because you not only brought back the art-style I LOVE so much, but you also rectify something I didn’t like in the original story when Charmander evolved. Now I can finally say I like Ash’s Charmeleon XD
Aside from this part, I was actually surprised that Ash (in Kanto) gets to meet so many other region Pokemon, like Sinnoh, and Alola, I mean, Incineroar, Lycanroc in Kanto?! A Piplup, and Entei too?! Seriously?! But I guess this is where the surprises is because I wasn’t expecting that! <3
In this Movie, I have to say that I actually love this other trainer i.e. Sorrel (which I believe his Japanese name is Souji, though I watched the movie in English XD), because I love trainers that are serious, and despite his age, he’s actually pretty mature and dependable <3 I love how he actually have Lucario as his partner, because Lucario is actually among my favourite Pokemon! <3 And when Lucario appeared with Sorrel to battled against the Legendary ‘Entei’,
Tumblr media
Even though it lost, but I still did fangirl when he used Aura Sphere! <3 That’s one of my favourite attacks (along with Bone Rush) coming from Lucario! <3 <3
And the part when Ash “died”, that whole scene was very emotional, I mean, I knew Ash won’t die, cuz he’s the main protagonist :P He can’t even grow old, so how can he die?! But I still did cry on my end in that scene, the whole part was an emotional moment, where Ash wanted to protect Pikachu:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Which he’ll use his body to block the incoming Pokemon’s attack to protect his Pikachu:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And how they were trying to reach each other:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Ash even asked Pikachu to get inside his Poke-ball so he can stay protected that way, even though, he understands clear well, Pikachu hates being inside his Pokeball, he still asked Pikachu to, because this is the only way he can stay protected:
Tumblr media
I mean, Ash is, human afterall, there’s really so much attack he can take as a human before he “dies”, and him against all those Pokemon’s too:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Ash is so courageous and brave, and will risked his safety to save a Pokemon’s life, I mean, this isn’t the first time he did it, this type of behavior is what made me fell in love with his character. He’s selfless and cares for all Pokemon, and if a Pokemon needs saving, he would put in 100% of his heart in doing so, so ofcourse when it comes to his best buddy, Pikachu, this comes naturally for him. But Pikachu refuses to go inside his Pokeball no matter what, he even attempted to jump in to protect Ash against all those incoming attacks:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
But ofcourse, Ash notices this, so
Tumblr media
he grabbed onto Pikachu and shield the attack for Pikachu once again, and this attack, finally did it for him :(
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Even when Ash asked Pikachu again why he doesn’t get inside his Pokeball, and Pikachu actually told him the reason, I was actually absorbed in this scene so much to actually laughed at the fact that Pikachu actually spoke ‘human language’ i.e. “It’s because.... I always wanted to be with you”, I decipher that Pikachu meant what he said, he didn’t just want to be in his Pokeball to be with Ash, he wanted to be physically, side by side with Ash without any object(Pokeball), no matter how dangerous the situation is, he wanted to always be with him, and I find that so sweet because it truly shows the the strong bond between Ash and Pikachu <3 I mean, in the original anime, you see the bond between them grow throughout the journey they’ve been on, but in this movie, you get that strong bond in that movie length! <3
But Ash still did it, in his last attempt to protect Pikachu, he sends him back into his Pokeball just in time so he won’t get caught in this attack.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
And when Pikachu came back out of his Pokeball, he realized Ash was fading away, omg, the feels man!! T_T He no longer can hold onto Pikachu or the Pokeball T.T
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I was seriously teary in this scene when Pikachu attempts to put the hat back on Ash’s head, but it didn’t work, because he’s fading/faded away :(
Tumblr media
Pikachu didn’t want to accept the fact that Ash is gone forever, and his strong electrifying attack represents how much Agony/sorrow Pikachu feels at that moment (because Ash is gone)
Tumblr media
He even holds onto Ash’s hat because that is something Ash left behind for him, something that still have Ash scent with Pikachu,
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
It was even enough to wipe away the darkness and the other Pokemon’s control, returning them back to normal where the darkness has lifted.
But Poor Pikachu :(
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I can say that this scene can be compared to the Mewtwo First Movie, when Ash was turned into a rock, and in Lucario & the Mystery of Mew, when Ash was gone, and Pikachu was crying, it’s a very emotional and powerful scene to show how much Ash means to Pikachu and I LOVE this! because I love seeing the strong bond between Ash and his Pokemon <3 <3
Well, I’m not going to go into any detail anymore, we all know Ash isn’t going to die, and he have returned by the Movie’s ending, but seriously, before watching the movie, I was like “What the heck?” at the part when Pikachu talked (lol), but when I watched the movie, and being so indulged in the Movie, I didn’t feel it was weird for that scene because it explains how Pikachu feels and why he doesn’t want to be inside his Pokeball is because he always wants to stay by Ash side, to be with him, and most of all to be able to see him. I can read subtle moments on my end, so whether Pikachu talked or not, it doesn’t matter, but honestly, I don’t mind that he did because I appreciate the unsubtle scene when he did because it was direct and left no doubt how Pikachu feels in that scene <3
But because I love Ash & Pikachu so much, I couldn’t end my post with a sad note, so I’ll end it when Ash returns to Pikachu, I mean, just look at them:
Tumblr media
Just look at HOW HAPPY THEY ARE!!! <3
Tumblr media
Go Ash & Pikachu!!! <3
There aren’t any negatives for me in this movie, but if I have to say if there’s something I don’t like, that would be Cross, Charmander’s original trainer that left it there in the rain like that! I mean, I never liked Damian (I believe that was his name in the original anime), but Cross, just ANNOYS me even more because of his arrogance! I got to say, he’s a little similar to Paul with his training method, and how he seeks the strong Pokemon.... And Charmander there, being similar to Chimchar? Wow! But at least Paul never do anything so stupid and selfish on his end like Cross did by taking Ash’s Rainbow Wing like that, because while I know this just adds more drama to the story, but I didn’t like Cross on my end... He did redeem himself in the end, but as far as my feelings for him goes, it’s neutral... 
But that’s the end of my review to this movie. I definitely will watch this Movie again on my end! <3 Definitely a fun Movie to watch! <3 And I find it shows a contrast because in Pokemon 2000, Ash is the chosen one, but in this Movie, where he meets Ho Oh, he’s the Rainbow Hero lol. Nice!

In this scene of the movie, I felt like Ash dreamt of a reality where he was the main character in a slice of life Japanese grade school anime series.
Instead of Pokémon, he loved cars (as seen in his room), Gardener Oak and Agatha-sensei work in his school, Sorrel-kun and Verity-chan are his best friends, while he stares outside his classroom window and on top of the school’s balcony like a true schoolboy protagonist.

I love this scene in particular because the Pokémon didn’t want to be in their Poké balls (even after Sorrel & Verity returned them in), but instead wanted to stay close to their trainer during the cold rainy weather ♡♡♡

Ash | Verity | Sorrel
“I hope we’ll get to meet again in the future...THEN WE’LL HAVE A BATTLE”
Even though it was if it was just for a temporary quest to find and meet Ho-Oh,  the three have great chemistry together as friends. As I said in my movie review post on the day I saw it in theaters, their adventure/journey finding Ho-Oh is what really made them close in a short period of time. They were great!
So what if they are just non-canonical movie characters to the main core anime? Verity & Sorrel will always have a special place in my heart ・ᴗ・
