Well he was, but I still prefer AG Ash for being a better balance, but that's just me. Yeah they did, but Kalos Ash does have thighs I like about him, character design, character, battling skills, etc.
One of the best episodes in general IMO.
I can tell. Yeah, but it just seemed they ran of ideas for Misty and were just "ah forget it it's an anime made to show off video games", it's especially clear for me all throughout Johto.
