On April 1, 1997, the first episode of the Pokémon anime premiered.
To this day, 898 different species of Pokémon have been created for anime and video games.
The first Pokémon video games went on sale on February 27, 1996.
Today, November 11, will be remembered as one of the best for all fans of Japanese anime, Pokémon. The eternal 10-year-old boy, protagonist of the Pokémon anime, Ash Ketchum, has been crowned Pokémon World Champion after 25 years since the premiere of the first chapter of the series.
That said, the Youtube channel, La Guía, has performed a psychological analysis on the current Pokémon World Champion, Ash Ketchum, from the first time we met him until today.
It should be noted that for most fans of Pokémon anime and video games this is an achievement that can bring a hidden message between such a moment of happiness, since it is rumored that Ash Ketchum will no longer be the protagonist of the series and will give way to someone else.
Psychological Analysis of Ash Ketchum, protagonist of Pokémon
Ash Ketchum is a 10-year-old boy who left home on April 1, 1997 to become the best Pokémon master. It was not until 22 years later that Ash finally managed to be the winner of a Pokémon league that opened the doors to enter the World Championship.
Throughout his 25 years as a character, we can identify the characteristic of never giving up in the face of adversity that may arise in order to achieve his dreams even after having been defeated on more than one occasion throughout his career as a Pokémon master.
Ash Ketchum psychological disorders
In the first instance, the analyst identifies that the protagonist of Pokémon suffered during his first defeats from an inferiority complex caused by bragging about his great skills as a Pokémon master, but when he demonstrated his abilities he was defeated without much problem.
In addition, the analysis highlights the maturity acquired by the character who, although he does not grow in age, does so psychologically and mentally, becoming increasingly wiser with the passage of time and learning from experiences based on defeats and victories.
Another important factor to highlight is his lack of a father figure, which causes an emotional detachment, since, throughout the entire series, Ash’s father has never been seen. Based on the analysis, this condition has caused Ash to create an emotional dependency with his initial Pokémon, Pikachu.
