Not thinking twice!
sheeesh it's been a while since I made that list. Tbh nowadays I'd switch Clemont and Serena, as well as Tracey and BrockTop 3:
1. Kiawe
2. Sophocles
3. Dawn
I don't get why Sophocles got rated down so badly since he had a pretty good synergy with Ash and the SM boys provided lots of fun episodes. Misty and Lillie had cute chemistries with Ash as well, though I can't deny they fizzled out as their series continued.
I can't really disagree with that bottom list. People love Brock, but forget he pretty much became a background prop for most of AG and DP. It's mainly only his OS and return appearances he's used well.
I didn't mind Rotom though, he had a fun bond with Ash and at least took the pointless dex scanning role off of him. Mallow improved later on, but was still kinda bland.
