Legend and/rumor is that when he received the rainbow wing in the very first season when he was in kanto, he has/had a wish that he has to stay 10 years old forever no matter what season and/or episode

Most of these are dub errors and/or changes, and it's been established, especially under 4Kids, that the dubbers had absolutely no idea what the show they were working on was about. Referring to those as anime errors is misleading, as they're dub errors. Most of those errors didn't exist in the original Japanese version. As for the real world animals, those haven't appeared since the first season, way back in 1997-1999. Obviously the show retconned their existence. Also, Miltank didn't exist in Gen 1 when Ash was in the cow costume, so he couldn't possibly have dressed as one.

Also, retconned or not, #6 still technically counts as something that "makes no sense."

After Meowth falls down the hill, the "R" on James's white uniform is missing. The blurb for this episode spells Tyranitar as Tyrannitar. Along with this, the blurb also spells Weezing as Wheezing and Fearow as Fearrow.

At the end of the movie, it's shown that modern day Professor Oak keeps a drawing he made of Pikachu and Celebi, so he remembers meeting Ash and that he had a Pikachu with him. So, he purposely went and gave Pikachu to Ash, knowing that they would become friends eventually (there are theories that he even could have hidden all other starters so Ash would end with Pikachu no matter what). Of course this creates a time paradox about how Ash even gets Pikachu before time travel, but whatever...

Plus how Ash caught all starters in the wild while we couldn't do that in the game and only Charmender evolved for some reason while Bulbasaur and Squirtle never did, like wtf? Did they ever evolve? I haven't watched the show past orange islands

Dishonorable Mentions: *What Immunity? -There have been several moments throughout the Pokemon anime where a pokemon has taken damage from or been knocked out by a certain attack despite its typing being immune to those types of moves. Brock's Onix being defeated by Pikachu's thunderbolt despite being part ground-type and being immune to electric attacks, Scizor being defeated by Croagunk's poison jab despite being part steel-type and immune to poison attacks, Ash's Turtwig being affected by another Turtwig's leech seed despite being a grass type and immune to leech seed, James' Inkay being affected by an Espurr's Psychic despite being part dark-type and immune to psychic-type moves, the list goes on and on. *Mold Breaker -While battling Roark's Cranidos, it has an ability called "Mold Breaker," which negates enemy abilities. Such as stopping static in its place. Or that's what the anime would have us believe. News Flash, Mold Breaker, doesn't, work, that, way! In the games, Mold Breaker ACTUALLY negates enemy abilities that grant immunities. Abilities like Levitate, Volt Absorb, Battle Armor, Flash Fire, Etc. *Soaking Mudsdale -This one... might be plausible? To gain an edge over Hapu's Ground-type Mudsdale, Ash gets the idea to trick Mudsdale into knocking over a pillar into the water at high tide. Mudsdale is splashed with water and soaked. The onlookers mention that this is similar to the move, soak, which turns the target into a pure water-type in the games. So by that logic, Pikachu is able to TKO Mudsdale with a powerful Z-Move it had just now become weak to, Gigavolt Havoc. Jury is still out out on this though. e_o *Holding the pokeball Shut -When catching a pokemon, why does LITERALLY NO ONE get the idea to just hold the pokeball shut so that the pokemon can't break out? And more importantly, why don't the games implement this feature?! It would be a godsend! Even Smosh did this in a sketch of theirs, holding the ball shut and sealing it by wrapping it in duct tape.

Actually, the anime uses a different logic than in the games. Game logic, being too simplified to account for physics, just says "all ground types are immune to electric, etc." Put anime logic into a real world setting. Take ground and flying, you can, theoretically, hit a bird by throwing a glob of mud like the moves mud bomb, mud slap, and mud shot, very similar to the move rock throw. Pikachu hitting Onix after it got drenched by the fire sprinklers could have worked the same as Mudsdale. Soaked earth IRL does act as a conductor for lightning and may be what allowed electric attacks to bypass the type immunity. As for Scizor, the poison may not have bothered it, but the physical hit might have. Just like Palpitoad not being bothered by the electricity of thunder fang, but Stoutland's teeth were painfully keeping it trapped, then it used ice fang to hurt really it.

First of all, if Swellow is using Guts, then it must've been paralyzed, but it shows no signs of that. Second, Swellow still should've taken a ton of damage from that attack and be on its last legs even if it avoided fainting. Third, that still doesn't explain why Pikachu also has the Thunder Armor.

Thunder armor kind of makes sense since the armor was supposed to show that swellow was paralyzed activating its guts ability which boosts its attack.

10. Obviously, Grace set up the laptop before she left. The bigger issue is that she left an expensive computer out on the front lawn that Rhydon could accidentally step on, or someone with a Pokémon strong enough to beat Rhyhorn and Fletchling could potentially steal it. 9. Did Ash say he didn't recognize it? You do know that Ash will use his Pokédex to remind himself about previously encountered Pokémon in addition to newly encountered ones, don't you? 8. Who says Gary can't ride in someone's car for traveling on his journey? He's not driving it himself, and nothing says he has to own the car. Maybe his parents lent him and his friends one of their cars for all we know. His grandfather is a world famous scientist with a huge ranch, after all, so I'm sure his family is loaded. 7. Yes, that was a ridiculously stupid error. It was also far from the only time that the Trainer's Choice segment screwed up, just the biggest error they made. Thank goodness they dropped it and went back to Who's That Pokémon after the R/S part of the series. 6. Yeah, that was an outdated concept back at the beginning of the anime when they never could've expected that the franchise would eventually expand so much to make Pokémon analogs of almost all major animal species, nor that the anime itself would last so long as to include all of them. 5. Yeah, that was weird, especially since Venonat is one of the creepier looking Bug types. 4. Heh, somehow I never realized that before. 3. Ah, yes, *that* fight. While most of Ash's unorthodox strategies do make sense to at least a degree, that literal plot armor was absolute BS. It probably would've become a meme were it not for the similar already existing one at #1. 2. Aw, come on, don't mock the doughnuts! Still, that was just a poor localization choice, not an actual headscratcher. Besides, if you were new to anime at the time (like most of us originally watching this were) and had no idea what a rice ball was, calling them doughnuts isn't the worst thing you could do. 1. Of course, we can't do without this classic meme that contradicted everything we knew about type advantages and disadvantages. It became even more ridiculous in hindsight once we got the Lightning Rod Ability. Other good ones: Every time the first season mistook Rock types as having immunity to Electric attacks instead of Ground types, most notably when Kabutops was immune to Pikachu's electricity. Conversely, Pikachu *was* somehow able to defeat a Marowak with an Electric attack. Every time a Normal type or part Normal type took damage from Ghost type attacks Whenever putting a Pokémon to sleep (or other status condition like when Bulbasaur was paralyzed by Erika's Tangela) acted as an automatic win condition Whenever a Pokémon could fire off multiple Hyper Beams without needing to rest/recharge When Exeggcute evolved without a Leaf Stone Why doesn't Wobbuffet ever take damage when using Counter and Mirror Coat? It's supposed to return double the damage only after tanking that damage first! How is May so stacked at 10 years old?! Norman's Slakoth and Slaking weren't encumbered by the Truant Ability Somehow, Kanto was suddenly full of wild 2nd and 3rd gen Pokémon upon Ash's return to challenge the Battle Frontier.

A little obscure one that may have gone under the radar; in one of the first few episodes to feature Tracy, Ash uses his Charizard for something and both Tracy and Misty utter something like "Oh no, not Charizard." Despite the fact that Tracy has not seen Ash's Charizard or is aware of it's poor behaviour at this point.

Top 10 worst things Ash Ketchum has ever done

One people forget is during the battle between Ash and Maylene, aka Buizel vs. Lucario... When Buizel is paralyzed by Force Palm, and, once the roof explodes and rain pours in that gives Buizel his "Swift Swim" ability... The paralysis is suddenly forgotten about. Yeah... That doesn't work like that.

4:30 He never drives himself, though. He always has a driver. He's the rich grandson of Professor Oak, so I'm not surprised he would spend his parents' (or his grandpa's) money on travelling by car.

I hope they give Swellow a signature move called Thunder Armor in the games! It would have super priority like Protect and it works like that, but only on electric type attacks. If it absorbs an electric attack all statuses and HP is fully healed and using it consecutively reduces the success chance by 50%. It would actually get often picked in competitive matches because electric moves are usually used against Swellow. It would not be too overpowered since it does require alot of prediction. ⚡

Not even the transition from XY/Z and then Sun and Moon anime which it became cartoon instead.

Another few things that make no sense, especially during the battle with Blaine: - Squirtle gets defeated by Ninetales. Even though Squirtle was unevolved, he shouldn't have been defeated that easily. - Seriously, using a Rhydon in as a Fire Type Gym Leader. I wonder if Flint in Diamond and Pearl took inspiration? - Blaine's Magmar has an Ability called Heat Lens, which renders Electric Type moves useless. Obviously resembles Volt Absorb and Motor Drive, but Magmar never had such an Ability in the games.
