lol, I know what you mean. for example, in the episode where 'the gang' was trying to get past the psyduck roadblock, Ash decided to set Turtwig on the Psyduck in question (fair enough, it has the type advantage). Unfortunately, it gets its ass kicked. Does Ash set all his pokemon on them at once? Does he use Pikachu? No, in fact, he sends out Chimchar, who is weak to water attacks.
what.
an.
idiot.
