My Favorite Hilarious Pokemon Theory

Found on TVTropes.com’s pokemon page:

 

Pikachu is like Yubel from Yu-Gi-Oh GX: the real “boss” over Ash, and insanely jealous of anyone and anything that gets between their relationship.

Pikachu is the only Pokemon Ash doesn’t even hint at getting rid of (unless you count that one time when Ash decided to leave it with a tribe of wild Pikachus but his refused to stay), whereas he’s perfectly willing to let go of or shunt off to Professor Oak’s lab any other ‘Mon he captures, regardless of how long he’s known them. Plus, Pikachu has no compunctions with letting its trainer know what it thinks of any decisions Ash makes with a well-placed Thunderbolt, which by now Ash has grown a tolerance to (note that he never fights back against this) and it’s also not above putting Ash’s other Pokemon in their place. Thus, Ash is clearly Pikachu’s bitch.

• To make matters worse, Pikachu’s gender remains officially undetermined, so “hermaphrodite” is still an available option.
