Talk:Ash's Larvitar
The Whole Weight Issue
I never thought about that until just now. Interesting point! =] → User:Thomas1652
Ok, About Larvitar and Ash...
Ok, guys, I am very sorry if I am beating on a dead horse, but I still don't really understand how Larvitar isn't considered Ash's Pokemon.
I mean, sure, It wasn't caught in a Poké ball (which many people use as the trump card in regards to capture despite several flaws in it.), but, then again, Misty's Togepi was never placed in a Poké ball either, and that never stopped people from calling it Misty's Pokemon despite the fact that it technically wasn't caught in a Poké ball.
Also, there is the whole thing about Ash having to return it to it's habitat and Mom, But then again, look at Lapras. That pokemon was ALSO supposed to be delivered back to it's family (Didn't Ash say to it that he would return it to it's family as soon as he finds them when he captured it?), and that is STILL counted as Ash's Pokémon (or at least enough to be part of the released section.) despite that.
And besides which, just because it is caught in a trainer's Poké ball doesn't mean that it is that trainer's pokemon, I mean, look at Brock's Vulpix (though this may be a bad example), or even Ash's Lapras, to a certain extent.
Besides, it actually participated in a battle at one point, And it was counted as Ash's Pokemon in Spurt, unlike, Oh, say, Haunter.
Now, if it still isn't enough for you, I'll understand.
Anyways, that's all for now.

I agree. Larviter should be listed as one of Ash's pokemon. Misty-may-dawn rulz
