am i misremembering this? i feel like there was a panic around the allister episodes that allister was going to take ash’s gengar but i dont remember if that was real or where it came from. i feel like i made that up bc this episode states outright that gengar doesnt want to leave ash’s side at all

#idk if that was a theory or not #also wow these episodes would feel much more meaningful if gengar wasnt shoved into a corner and ignored for most of the series #its always really funny when they do flashback reels meant to be super emotional but they can barely pull any good moments #bc they treated the pokemon like dogshit most of the time #and by funny i mean sad #like wow ash and gengar are so close. wish we couldve seen that outside of one other episode #echoed voice #jn lb #also god the lost potential w gengar hurts to bad. its the one abandoned pokemon where its not relevant at ALL that it was abandoned #say what you want about pignite being a charizard clone but at least it got an actual follow up and it had a consistent personality #that was clearly affected by the abandonment #gengar is mad for two episodes and then after that its just a prankster type that keeps losing #even charizards actions in os can be explained by its backstory #gengar gets nothing after its capture besides generic ‘’aw you like ash’’ comments #bc if we acknowledge that something fucked up happened to it then oughhh that might alienate and put ppl off oh noooo
