    Gary Oak's Cheerleaders should be in the forgotten characters because they have been travelling with Gary all over the Kanto Region back in the original Pokemon Series and then after he lost the first Pokémon League his Cheerleaders disappeared when he travel the Johto Region by himself. They did return in the Johto League Silver Conference were Ash and Gary battle each other for the very first time. After Gary was defeated his Cheerleaders were never seen or heard from again.

No one really talks about him, but he was one of these "beta Paul" trainers. I always thought he would make a great recurring rival for Ash if they decided to prolonge his arc to few episodes.

    To be honest I'm a bit disappointed in Nando because as Ash and Dawn's rival in both Pokemon contest/League I was expect of him to do better just like he did in the Sinnoh Grand Festival were Nando came to the Top 4 after defeated by Zoey. I mean Nando could have reach the Sinnoh League quarter or semi-final to battle Ash in the full battle not lose to him early, seriously it's like the Japanese writers were trying hard at all.

    Great video.
    when I think of missed oppritunities for characters I think of these characters:
    Giselle- she definitely could have traveled with Ash to see what the world is like, and besides the attraction, she could have been the one to challenge Ash to train and get stronger.
    Joey- Missed oppritunity to have another rival for Ash.
    A. J.- a real missed chance to give Ash a reason to train, and give him a great rival.
    (I write fanfiction, with Pokemon as a fandom, and I can tell you, I've seen plenty of authors bring A. J. in their stories.)
    Duplica- another missed oppritunity to give Ash a rival.
    Erika/Sabrina- these two are together because they should have been seen in the Battle Frontier arc, to see how they've been doing after Ash last saw them.
    (I know Erika was in Journeys, but that's a long gap.)
    Ritchie- while he did appear in Johto, he still could have been around to motivate Ash, and we could have seen them battle in the Hoenn league, because as someone said, Morrison as a rival, right at the league...no, because there's no storytelling like with the other trainers Ash battled.
    Jeanette Fisher/Katie- missed oppritunity to have them return as rivals for Ash, and while many say Ritchie was Ash's greatest battle in the Indigo League, I think major props go to Jeanette, because she mounted one of the best comebacks, nearly sweeping Ash with her Bellsprout.
    Katie...with her battling style almost mirroring Paul's without the brutality...Katie was so close to beating Ash.
    Sakura- a definite missed chance, because she along with Casey, Duplica, Trinity,and Giselle could have been Ash's first major female rivals, since he really only had Misty.
    Angie- they did a decent job of building a story being the competitive and stubborn as a Camerupt(You should get the joke.) streak, as well as a small romantic relationship, but ended it after Ash saves Angie's life, in one of the rare times he's willing to sacrifice himself, with the first in the Mirage Kingdom arc, when Hanson targeted Misty.
    For May, it would be Erica(Eriko) in the Mean with Envy and following episode, because like Ash, May had no female rival...compared to Dawn, Iris, and Serena.

      You might think that, but in reality it was a bad decision.
      Think of it this way, the writers are storytelling, and these characters all have stories with Ash, or whoever, and the development was okay, but dropping it at the worst time...that reflects on the writers.
      You always want to make sure your stories do a good job of making the characters believable, and developing them through storytelling.

    I think part of the reason why Regina stands out is because her design kinda looks as if she could be a travelling companion (and lowkey reminds people of Lillie). On top of that she also uses a glaceon and it’s common for the pokegirls of the franchise to have an eevelution. And I agree, she’s a very interesting character.
    If you make a part two of this video I personally recommend you to talk about Amelia. She’s a pokemon performer that (in my opinion) had a design and background that worked so well that I personally that her episode would've been a great way to set up the beginning of a really cool rivalry with Serena if she would've appeared at the beginning of the series and not when Serena was trying to get her last Princess Key. I seriously suggest you to check her episode ("Master Class Choices" which is episode 16 of the pokemon XYZ anime).
    I also recommend you to check Dia’s episode (the zeraora trainer from an alternate dimension destroyed by Guzzlord) from Pokemon Sun and Moon.

    Honestly wanted more of Tobias. He just came out of nowhere, brings out 2 legendaries, doesn't elaborate and leaves forever. I wanna know his other Pokemon and how he got those legendaries. It's like a character that seems to have so much lore behind, but we really get nothing at all. Just one ep where we meet him again and we learn he is like a descendant of some ancient clan and winning the league was just part of a much bigger goal. Maybe he even came from a different timespace through a dialga-palkia related event. There are so many possibilites.

    I don't see any other comments mentioning her, and this seems like a safe space, so we gotta talk about Katie. She was this random ace trainer that showed up for the first round of 6v6 battles in the Hoenn league for 2 episodes, but she was so good that her battle took 2 episodes, and even got a cliffhanger where she's beating Ash like Cynthia from the Masters 8. I really think her battle paved the way for characters like Paul that incorporate effects from the games into their strategies.
    EDIT: I forgot to say that she got a cameo in the end of journeys! Idk if that disqualifies her as forgotten but I don't think she's talked about enough

    As someone who watched the anime often enough to remember a lot of characters, i must say that most of the ones mentioned got an update in later regions. Most reappeared with new mon and battle ash again. Even old pokemon from kanto and johto. Example, teddiursa from the johto saga is pauls ursaring. Same with elekid, he was shown to have memories of meeting ash many gens back in previous episodes. If you can make an update video on the mon who later reappeared in the anime that would be awesome. I believe even the fearow ash ran from in kanto eventually got caught by one of his friends. A lot of easter eggs in episodes.

    Here's another forgotten character that should have been included in the video topic like Amelia from Pokemon XYZ Series in "Master Class Choices!". In this episode I really thought that Serena was going to lose to Amelia since she a threat to wining the third Princess Key but she didn't which is good however I still would liked to see more from Amelia because I though that she could be Serena's new rival along with Shaun, Miette and Nini especially since she too wanted to be the Kalos Queen.
    To be honest this was a wasted of this episode because Amelia only made one appearence and then after she wasn't see again when since Pokemon XYZ Series came to the end. I mean Amelia could have return in "The First Day of the Rest of Your Life!" after Serena, Shaun and Jessie performances for many people in Lumiose City were she wanted to confront Serena since Amelia still have grudge against Serena for winning the third final Princess key instead of her and wanted a Pokemon battle with her.

    Domino, Annie, and Oakley should definitely have shown up more than once. I'm an especially big fan of villains , "evil team" members/leaders, antagonists, and antagonistic rivals.
    The early episodes (Kanto and the Orange Islands) had a whole bunch of particularly memorable, relatively important characters of the day.
    Often gym leaders and such, significant as they are, basically amounted to CotDs unless it took Ash more than an episode to beat 'em. xD
    Yeah, the idea of people turning into pokemon is a definite missed opportunity.
    Nando is cool. I mean, he's one of many cool people in all the various categories of character, and among the best of the recurring Sinnoh cast... For me what stands out most about him was that his interaction with Gardenia made me ship them. :3
    In the end I think they did revisit most of the people we definitely needed to (although not always sufficiently), but it would of course always be fun to see any of these neat characters again, 'specially if there were a particular reason to bring 'em back.

I'd like to see Domino from the Mewtwo Strikes Back movie come back. Really, seeing any other Team Rockit members would have been nice, as they are a large organization with tons of members besides Jessis and James. Domino stands out compared to other Rocket members. She looks like the youngest member, a good battler, has some neat gadgets, and has a spy element to her. Overall, I think Domino was a wasted character who could have done more.

    You might not remember him, but there is a computer scientist in the Pokémon anime named Dr. Akihabara. In this "lost" episode, one of his computers' Pokémon were being snatched by Team Rocket, while Ash and the gang go inside the computer to stop the threat. Dr. Akihabara appears inside the mainframe as a polygonal face serving as the tour guide, kind of like the brain training doctor in the Brain Age series. Sadly, the episode Dr. Akihabara was in killed a bunch of young Japanese viewers with its rapidly-flashing imagery, with some of the viewers getting epilepsy. Around that era, CRT TVs were more commonplace, and they are more likely to trigger epilepsy than an LCD, LED or plasma TV. What were the producers of the anime even thinking?

Yeah I know she got over this for the most part but it still felt wrong to see her win over Nando.

    When it comes to overlooked Pokemon characters, one that stands out to me is Amelia from Pokemon XY. She's a snobby rich girl who believes that she deserves to be Kalos Queen, since she's so talented, and wants former Kalos Queen Palermo to take her in as her mentor.
    I wish she showed up earlier on during the Pokemon Performances, as I think she would've made a good antagonistic rival to Serena. (heck, I wish Serena got into Performances sooner than she did, but that's a separate problem) I suppose one could say she'd be a retread of Ursula from Sinnoh, but perhaps one can differentiate her by having Amelia slowly become a better character overtime.

    For some reason I wanted more of, of all characters, the art collector from the second movie, so I've spent 24 years writing a goddamn backstory for him. I'm at 38 chapters and taking a bit of a hiatus (I got brainworms from Scarlet and Violet so I'm spending a lot of time writing about that).
    Also--all one-shot Rockets. Why did we never see Domino again? Did anyone find out that Iron Mask Marauder was a traitor? Are Christopher and Mondo the same person?

    When it comes to the forgotten characters of the anime, I always think the likes of Nando (the true coordinator chad, after Drew), Casey (a cutie with an ill-be-gotten Beedrill from Ash, though that's on him; a generous, but extremely stupid move from him, especially when she caught a Weedle), Koji (I would've liked to see more from him after 'Good Quill Hunting'; he could've been the Silver expy. He doesn't need to train himself, no matter what the Kanto wash-ups: Brock and Misty put it), Cassidy and Butch (better Team Rocket grunts than Jessie and James), Lilly the Magician (leave it to her to make every trainer's/breeder's/coordinator's dream come true, too bad it was a one-time thing) and Ritchie (Ash's frival, who is the goat of the Indigo League, Gary's second rate) will always reign supreme.

      But anyway, I felt he deserved that Cyndaquill more than Ash does; in all fairness, it was a wild Cyndaquill and with how he trained his Sandslash, he's a capable trainer. While not kind, he's clever and not willing to give up. Personally, I think that clever beats kind any day of the week. Overall, Koji's got my sympathy for having his dreams robbed by Ash, and wrongfully scolded by the Kantonian wash-ups: Brock and Misty.

That’s why Ash could not win a league for the longest time he limits his options just to give himself a fun time. Dude in a tournament this is not the time to be laughing in a serious match you need to win. That’s why Tobias defeated him he would never use pre evolutions to win a tournament nor would he vault his best mons instead he use them to crush the competition. I liked him because he despises losing and so do I.
