Based on the definition of a Pokémon Master in the [[Official Pokémon Handbook]], [[Ash Ketchum]] is already a Pokémon Master, since unlike his rival, he does not boast about how great he is. He also cares deeply about his Pokémon, not just uses them to win battles, unlike [[Gary Oak|Gary]].--[[User:Hitmonlee|Hitmonlee]] 20:41, 18 May 2008 (UTC)

[01:15:46] <+MrE> Aside from the Legendary issue, it would be impractical for anyone in the anime to capture and maintain 391 different creatures. Unlike the Pokémon games or Pokémon Special manga, in which Pokémon can be stored in suspended animation as computer data - Pokémon in the anime need t be fed and exercised regularly to maintain their health. Such a task would be impossible for anyone to perform alone, or even with many assistants or helpers.
[01:16:04] <+MrE> like a zoo because zoos obviously don't keep hundreds of animals in health :(

>I very much doubt being a Pokémon Master would entail being a glorified zoo keeper. If that were the case, a would-be Pokémon master's main priority would be to stay at home, buy land, and construct large enclosements, cages, and purchasing vast quantities of food. Not to travel around and battle a handful of Pokémon. - Zeta

Mewtwo Strikes Back definition

I have a Mewtwo Strikes Back DVD. In the special features there is a brief history/summary of the Pokemon franchise. It explains what a trainer is and defines a Pokemon master as someone who has caught one of every Pokemon. I'll post the direct quote later.--SomeoneIKnew 04:58, 30 August 2007 (UTC)Reply

A valid possibility but I don't think that will be how Ash becomes a Pokémon master since the emphasis on catching them all has disappeared. --FabuVinny T-C-S 11:18, 1 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

Official Pokémon Handbook definition

Based on the definition of a Pokémon Master in the Official Pokémon Handbook, Ash Ketchum is already a Pokémon Master, since unlike his rival, he does not boast about how great he is. He also cares deeply about his Pokémon, not just uses them to win battles, unlike Gary.--Hitmonlee 20:41, 18 May 2008 (UTC)Reply

That makes Gary, Reggie, Jimmy, Marina, and Lance, not to mention a few hundred others, are all already Pokémon Masters.Shadow1337 12:48, 1 November 2008 (UTC)Reply
