Dawn is both an Ash and May's ripoff.Also Dawn is the less successful of all Ash companions
>>58206322Yes. DP recycles many things from previous seasons, like bringing back PokéRinger to evolve Staravia.
>>58206322Sinnoh is just a hoenn rip-off in general
>>58206322May/Hoenn were beta-tests for Dawn/Sinnoh
>>58206322dawn is may but good
Dawn is them attempting to do a more focused May because they originally wanted May to be the protagonist of Hoenn, only to go crawling back to Ash because they didn't think boys would watch an anime focusing on a girl. They wouldn't have made her Norman's daughter if they weren't trying to commit to the games at first, but they decided to make her a crybaby bitch and give up on training because it was too hard and she's a girl. So later they incorporated the Pokemon Contest mechanic and thought "maybe we can dump her in this to give her shit to do?" which is a similar thing to happen to Serena and why the two met in the anime at allDawn from the start was always going to be the contest arc, she never was going to be pushed as the protagonist since it was obvious Ash was here to stay.
God Dawn is such a sexy little girl

>>58206440>May to be the protagonist of Hoennholy fuck this would have made the whole franchise so much more interesting

>>58206735All girls in anime have the same face
>>58206440>they didn't think boys would watch an anime focusing on a girlAnd they were right. Nobody gives a shit about Horizons
>>58206431This
>>58207943thats because horizons is modern limp wristed soft faggot shiteven the boy protagonist (roy) is more feminine than the girl sidekick of the original series (misty)if they had gone for a clean break with advanced and made may the new protagonist and retired ash, she would have been bolder, ballsier, stronger and more resolute than she ended up beingand i for sure would have watched itcute girl who can kick ass - whats not to like?
