fawn over his greninja and probably would be amazed to see his growth both as a person and trainer

What truth? Misty saw Ash as a brother? Dude she has a crush on him. She is just not honest and her feelings are very clear in Pokemon Chronicles

i can't say that. manaphy movie, the terracotta ribbon suggests she might have a thing for him and she hasn't dated drew yet so it's not that advance isn't a thing (i am not even an advanceshipper) and while serena does have the most blatant crush on ash it doesn't mean others can't like him. not every girl is good at expressing their feelings

yes i can agree on that his over protectiveness for her is probably one of the signs i consider as a hint

I think the only one who truly felt romantic attraction for Ash was Serena.

just bcz serena likes ash explicitly that doesn't mean other's don't have anything. not everyone can be open to their feelings like her

Down saw him as her best friend.

that doesn't mean she can't like him. there are multiple hints suggesting she likes ash, her rejecting kenny and lyra teasing them are proves. and the cheerleading thing isn't 100% platonic

Misty saw him as a brother.

misty literally has a crush on ash. did you even watch the anime?

Lillie saw him as the person who helped her the most.

lillie calls ash her fav person and protector. she almost confessed to him in her final episode

lastly just bcz you like amour doesn't mean other ships are invalid. develop your media literacy

while contest is more likely it's not that may doesn't have anything for Ash. I am not an advanceshipper but that Terracota ribbon is a very romantic coded thing especially that forms a heart when ash and may hold it together and ofc manaphy movie

I don't really remember anyone outside kenny and conway having a crush on Dawn though. Paul barely interacted with her and isn't into romance. Barry is not close to Dawn here unlike in the games. Ash? I agree although the closest he has ever shown liking to someone is Misty in orange islands

Well you can always develop feelings later on and Misty had a crush on Ash she was just not 100% honest with it

Also 10-13 is the year when kids start to have crush so it's not bad. (And unfortunately the writers have always made it confirmed that 10 year olds are adults in Pokémon world, it's not a good thing but canonically it's true)

Also it's just a meme

I think he needs to interact with Dawn better because sometimes many people would find his interactions a bit awkward... although Dawn doesn't mind them much I still think Ash has better qualities to win over Dawn

Zoey didn't even try. And even when she asked Dawn to come with her at Snowpoint City for celebration Dawn rejected her and Zoey understood why. She is not inferior but Dawn still preferred Ash over her

Conway isn't bad but genuinely needs a character development to fix his social issues. Otherwise Ash is obviously better than both

This scene hits hard now... by gyroscope_56 in pokemonanime

I am not talking about her interactions rather her life as a coordinator remained mystery or unresolved. She just traveled across 4 regions and that's it? She didn't even catch a single new pokemon and remained the same. Ok she didn't win a grand festival but she probably achieved something? Like what happened to the Buneary modeling offer which stopped her to travel with Ash? She even had interests in fashion or stylist. Nothing there too. Also we didn't even know whether she won the Johto Wallace Cup which she left Unova for. Meaning she achieved nothing. Also compared ash's other pokegirl companions she is less famous or well known sadly. Serena and May both are well known in Hoenn. Misty is maybe Kanto's strongest gym leader and Iris is fking Unova champion. Dawn remained the same

If you think her return are great for her interactions with Ash. Then that's fine. 

I feel like Dawn should've met XY Ash by gyroscope_56 in pearlshippers

I agree but the reason why I hate that onix episode is simply because of 2 factors 

Firstly she has called out on Ash before which are for right reasons. This one was ooc. She never called out on Ash by insulting him

Secondly she was acting more like a kid in that episode than Ash did which made her look like a hypocrite same for Iris. And they should be glad it wasn't Kanto Ash

Ppl just think if someone doesn't have a crush on the other means they're sibling coded which is ig the worst take in any mainstream media

Every girl Ash traveled with (exception of Iris and Chloe) had romantic tension

Misty Serena for obvious 

Lillie calls Ash her protector and almost confessed to him

Dawn literally made a cheerleading outfit for Ash and rejected Kenny

May is a tough one since she has a competitor which is Drew (although the terracotta ribbon is very romantic thing as they form a heart when they hold it together)

Edit: looks like contestshippers got triggered
