Why does Ash want to be a Pokemon Master?

Nov. 19, 2013

From what we have seen over the years, Ash’s hasn’t made as much progress, yet he is constantly retconned and takes massive detours on his journey (fillers and COTDs). Makes you wonder why he has this goal in the first place.

To be honest there isn’t really a definition for things like “Pokemon Master” or “Dragon Master”. Kinda like Luffy + Pirate King definition I guess. For Ash, being a Pokemon Master probably just means he gets to travel around the world with Pikachu & his other Pokemon and experience new battles & events etc. Remember he saw Ho-Oh on the first episode? Ash’s eternal happiness is not to win, but to be with his Pokemon forever.

Ash just does what he wants to do, and you’re being awfully judgemental about his abilities. Considering that he saved the Pokemon world countless number of times, it really makes you wonder why people are so condescending about Ash.
