im going back to my emeryverse ash teams and im starting to regret trying to do these in order. mostly because kanto is gonna be the most annoying one to figure out. i crank ash's rotation team issues up to eleven with this one. and trying to add more pokemon to his roster that will only stay for a bit is like... "ok am i giving him this pokemon because he would actually go for it or am i giving it to him because I Like It"

#im making him like ACTUALLY a bad trainer here at first. not maliciously obviously he is still a good kid #i mean bad as in ''this kid's guidance isn't really fantastic and he isn't all that supported.''#i worry that it sounds meanspirited towards kanto to say that my version of ash doesnt feel at home with it (besides pallet town)#given how much i bitched about kanto favoritism during my rewatch. but i swear its not that. i do appreciate kanto more now #its that like. ash is noticably happier once hes in the orange islands and johto in the show and i wanna play on that.#combined with how nasty kanto could get towards him #ALSO i dont like dupes and like to avoid them as much as i can besides starters #so i dont wanna give him something a companion already has. so my fave gen 1 mons are all off the table because of this LMAO
