why are these retards still in the show?

>>28418992
Tradition. I don't know if they serve the "parent service" role after the dub switch.

keeping it going by never winning

It took me too long to realize what's wrong with Jessie's legs. She looks odd without her thigh high boots

Japan actually loves them.

>>28418992
the only good characters in the anime
why doesn't James just replace Ash, fuck

>>28418992
Probably for the same reason the retard with the Pikachu is still there.

>>28418992
Because they are the best part about it.

Japan still loves them

or do you think Ash "loses to a single resisted move" Ketchum is actually fun to watch

>>28418992
James/kojiro is very popular

Dont talk shit about my nigga james

>>28418992
What more interesting - why Brock, Misty, Butterfree, Pidgeot, Weezing and Arbok aren't in the show? Why I should say goodbye to beloved characters and meet some crappy shit, like Iris and Cilan?

>why are the best characters in the show still in the show
Worst thread on /vp/.

>>28418992
For the same reason that useless faggot Ash is still in the show too. The producers just refuse to let it die.

>>28418992

Important main characters.

Plus, The writers can write them in all kinds of stories

There are far better developed than fucking ash.

Japan adores them

When they became competent villains in BW the fanbase hated it, even the VAs hated playing serious Jessie/James.
