The Secret Reason Gary Got A Better Starter Than Ash

Professor Oak had three Pokemon on a table and two boys who wanted them. His grandson got a Squirtle. The neighbour's kid got a Pikachu that bit him. Everyone tells this as bad luck. Ash overslept, the good ones were gone, he got the leftover. But Pikachu was never part of the starter programme, it would not obey, it would not go in a ball, and Oak kept it anyway and then let Ash walk out of the village with it. The starter triangle is designed so there is no best pick. So the question is not who got the better Pokemon. It is who got the easier one, and why the leading researcher on human and Pokemon bonding handed the difficult one to a ten year old whose defining trait is that he does not give up. This video also covers the part that makes it uncomfortable: if this reading is right, Oak used his own grandson as the control group and never told him. #pokemon #professoroak #garyoak #ashketchum #pikachu #squirtle #pokemonanime #pokemontheory #kanto #anime #pokemonlore #explained
