im going to do this a bit diffrent then others.
human charcters:
favorite female main:Misty she was in first episode with Ash its just something that makes her special she is just likable not all recent companions are. i don't mind May.
Female 3rd party(apeared in 3 or more eps total)
aisy Misty's eldest sister she was given depthwithout over shadowing any main characters
main male: Brock in short when kanto came out in usa i was 14 year old girl. i no longer have said crush on him i still find him fun to watch.
3rd party male: Gary though he needs hair cut i found his strange double crush on ash and misty entertaining.
favorite sidekicks(apeared often in anime but not part of Ash's team aa hero team):
Team rocket not after hoenn. they were halrous late preteens to early teens. they were just in akward place emotionally that all social situations are funny yes im reffering to jessie and james
max i like him and hate him but he is cute little side kick which he only falls into as dosen't yet have pokemon to be on team hero
Drew the reactions he intetionally provked from May.
enjoyable pokemon:
pysuck funny
pikachu ketchup addict i am to
togepi oh this cleaver toddler introduced in gen before officail. lotad/lmbre/ludculo maybe stupid looking but its antics were halirous. munchlax is same deal as 1 before.
thats all my favoite charactes.
