What are your Pokémon Anime Hot Takes?

This a judgement free zone. Any controversial takes or opinions that you may have for the anime you’re more than welcome to discuss it 😊

3. I honestly hated Ash’s Lucario in Journeys. I think it took up way too much screen time to the point where all the rest of the Journey’s team (aside from Pikachu) were pretty much sidelined.
