5) Raichu - I HATE PIKACHU (Sorry, no offence, but I can't use any other word for it)... I mean all the publicity he gets, when he's the root of many of Ash's problems in the first season. (In the Japanese seizure episode, it was him, not Porygon that made the flashing lights that made that episode infamous) Why dosn't Team Rocket steal a Raichu for once? Raichu is always getting a bad rap, even in the Pokemon the 3rd Movie short, Raichu was pretty mean . But Raichus are strong, tough, and cute too. Why dosn't Ash just get a Thunder Stone? I don't know...
I remember Ash did have a Thunder Stone at some point, but he decided he still didn't want to evolve Pikachu.They did that episode in the first series, and then again a bunch of series later because they couldnt think of anything
