8 Times Ash Ketchum Proved Himself A Pokemon Master
4. His Never-Say-Die Attitude
When was the last time Ash Ketchum "gave up"? He's come close on the odd occasion, but he's always rallied at the last - even in defeat, he just doesn't know how to quit. Take his training regimes or his Gym and Legaue battles as an example. Be it a new tactic or a last-gasp Hail Mary, he keeps on going until the very last, in victory or defeat.
This extends to his activities outside of that too. How many times, in his big-screen adventures, has he hurled himself as psychic forcefields and electric fences with such a reckless lack of regard for his own safety? Cast your mind back to his encounter with Mewtwo all those years ago. Even in the face of overwhelming odds, he practically sacrificed his life to help save the day. That's some dedication.
