Just do it!

right now to subscribe to my youtube channel!
Join the black tarzan army today!
Anway, let's get right into the video!
Misty is one of the most recognizable characters in the Pokémon franchise.
She was Ash Ketchum's first companion in the anime, and one of the first Gym leaders
you will battle in the video games.
Misty wasn't some damsel in distress who needed saving every other episode, Misty could
take care of herself, and she never took grief off of Ash or Team Rocket.
Misty was also a skilled Pokémon trainer, and she never let her friends down.
Having a strong female protagonist is a testament to how the Pokémon franchise was made to
appeal to both boys and girls.
Before Pokémon, kids TV shows (and more importantly, the toys they were made to promote) were split
down gender lines.
With Pokémon, the series could be enjoyed by both boys and girls.
Pikachu was a cute animal, who could also fight against other cool monsters in battle.
You could root for Ash Ketchum in his quest to be the best… like no one ever was, and
you could also be a fan of Misty, who could go toe to toe with the boys in battle if she
wanted.
Misty has existed since the earliest days of the franchise, and she has one of the most
interesting (and disturbing) histories of any Pokémon character.
We are here today to look at one of Pokémon's most beloved characters.
From the constant attention she received from older guys (both in fiction, and the real
world), to the original intended outcome of her relationship with Ash.
Here are the 15 Things You Didn't Know About Misty.
Misty was ash's longest running female companion.
Misty became Ash's companion during the 2nd episode of the show.
She stayed by his side during his journeys through Kanto, the Orange Islands, and Johto.
In the episode "Gotta Catch You Later!", Ash, Misty, and Brock go their separate ways.
Ash would travel to Hoenn, Brock returned to Pewter City (though he would soon rejoin
Ash), and Misty became the leader of the Cerulean City Gym.
Ever since journeying through Hoenn, Ash has had a number of different female companions.
May was with him through Hoenn (and the Battle Frontier in Kanto), Dawn was with him in Sinnoh,
Iris was with him in Unova, and most recently, Serena was with him in Kalos.
Of all of Ash's companions in Pokémon, Misty was the longest running of the girls
that joined him.
She was with him for 280 episodes.
Brock is the longest running companion overall (as he also journeyed with Ash through the
Hoenn and Sinnoh regions).
The people who have stayed with Ash the longest are actually Team Rocket, as they have been
in almost every single episode of the show since the 2nd one.
Misty will never come back.
Pokémon is going through a huge revival at the moment.
The unprecedented success of Pokémon GO has lead to a mainstream nostalgia wave for the
original games, and early seasons of the anime.
The rave reviews for Pokémon Sun & Moon have also led to a surge in popularity for the
latest entries in the series.
With such a renewed interest in the early days of Pokémon, would it be possible for
Misty and Brock to return to the anime, and join Ash on his latest journey?
Sadly, this will not be the case.
According to Masamitsu Hidaka, a former director and storyboard artist on the show – Misty
will never return as a main cast member.
While he stated that cameo appearances were fine, Misty would not become a full-time companion
to Ash ever again.
Her story is complete as far as the anime staff are concerned, and Ash needs new companions
in order to keep the show fresh.
Misty had a marriage proposal.
Due to the increasing delays with the release of Pokémon Gold & Silver in Japan, the Pokémon
anime was forced to come up with a filler season to bridge the gap between the first
two generations.
The result of this was the Orange Islands season.
After losing to Ritchie in the Indigo League, Ash Ketchum is tasked with picking up a mysterious
item known as the GS Ball, from a place known as the Orange Archipelago.
This led to a filler season, where Ash competed against four Gyms that focused more on completing
tasks than battling (kind of like the Island Challenges in the recent Pokémon Sun & Moon).
In the episode "Misty Meets Her Match", Ash challenges the third of the Orange Islands
Gyms.
The leader of the Gym was named Rudy, and he had a serious crush on Misty.
Throughout the episode, Misty has to choose between rooting for the oblivious Ash, or
the charming Rudy.
Ash defeats Rudy in battle, and before they all depart, Rudy asks Misty to stay on the
Island with him.
She refuses, and continues her journey with Ash.
That is what happened in the English dub.
In the original Japanese version of the episode, Rudy asked the 1o year old Misty to marry
him.
It seems that the Pokémon anime wasn't finished with inciting controversy – they
wanted to add "child brides" to the list of stuff that would get the show into trouble.
Misty's bike got fixed!
The reason Misty tags along with Ash in the first place is because he was responsible
for destroying her bike.
In the first episode of the anime, Ash "borrows" Misty's bike, so that he can escape from
the Spearow that are chasing him.
Pikachu defeats the Spearow horde with a Thunder Shock attack, but also destroys Misty's
bike in the process.
The bike is left with Nurse Joy at the Viridian City Pokémon Center, and Ash & Misty begin
their journey across Kanto.
In the episode "Gotta Catch Ya Later!", Ash and his friends return to Viridian City.
When visiting the Pokémon Center, the resident Nurse Joy reveals that Misty's bike had
been fixed by the previous Nurse, and was good as new.
Ash Ketchum's debt had finally been paid, and the two were free to part ways.
The Nurse Joy who fixed the bike is missing her calling in life.
She took a bike that was essentially a piece of charred metal, and fixed it so that it
looked brand new.
If they ever create a Pimp My Ride show in the Pokémon anime world, then she should
be the first in line to become a host.
Misty had a purpose in the pokemon anime.
Here is your regular reminder that Misty is 10 years old.
In fact, all of Ash's female companions that came after Misty are also 10 years old.
We should also remind you that there are a lot of creepy people working in the Japanese
entertainment industry.
Masamitsu Hidaka was one of the directors and storyboard artists on the Pokémon anime
series.
During an interview in 2008, he was asked about the possibility of Misty's return
to the show.
One of the reasons given for Misty not coming back (outside of a possible one-off appearance),
is due to her original purpose on the show.
According to Hidaka, Misty's original purpose on the show was as eye candy for the boys
in the audience.
This is why Ash has changed female companions so many times over the years.
The creators of the show like to change up the eye candy, so that the boys can have something
to enjoy.
Hidaka stated that girls are more customisable than boys, and you can put them into bathing
suits (those were his exact words).
So yeah… the reason Misty, May, Dawn, Iris, and Serena were included on the show, was
so that the kids at home can ogle their 10 year old bodies.
Sorry for ruining Pokémon for you.
Misty has a signature pokemon.
The one thing that most Pokémon fans can tell you about Misty is that she is a Water-type
Pokémon trainer.
With that in mind, what is her signature Pokémon?
Ash has Pikachu and Brock has Onix, so what about Misty?
When it comes to the anime, most people associate Misty with Psyduck.
While she used her Starmie, Staryu, and Goldeen a lot in battle, Misty's Psyduck was more
memorable than the others.
Psyduck always seemed surprised about being called into battle… because he never was,
he just showed up announced.
Despite being dim-witted, Psyduck was one of the most powerful Pokémon on Misty's
team (when he wanted to be).
In the Pokémon video games, Misty's signature Pokémon is Starmie.
A powerful Starmie has been on Misty's team in every one of her video game appearances.
Depending on your choice of starter Pokémon, Misty's Starmie might be one of the first
big hurdles you will have to overcome in Pokémon Red & Blue.
Starmie is one of the most viable Pokémon in the first generation of games, due to having
partial Psychic-typing, and having access to great moves like Recover, Double Team,
and Psychic.
When playing the older games, it might be worth making Starmie your own signature Pokémon.
Misty's voice actor.
In the 4Kids dub of the Pokémon anime, both Misty and Jessie were voiced by Rachel Lillis.
She held these roles from the first episode in 1998, until "Pasta La Vista" in 2006.
This was due to the original voice cast of the show losing their jobs.
In 2006, the licence for dubbing the Pokémon anime was coming up for renewal.
The show was waning in popularity, so Pokémon USA began looking for a different production
company, who could dub and edit the show for less money.
4Kids Entertainment had held the rights since the show was first brought to America, and
the voice cast appealed to the fans for help.
In the end, the rights went to TAJ Productions, and the original cast were replaced with cheaper
sound-a-likes.
Rachel Lillis was the first of the original recurring voice cast to return to the show,
but not as Misty or Jessie.
She voiced Maylene, the leader of the Veilstone City Gym in Sinnoh.
She would later voice several minor characters, and some of the one-off Pokémon that appeared
in the show.
Her final appearance to date was in a special episode of the anime that was meant to promote
the 2008 release of Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time & Darkness.
Rachel Lillis voiced Shinx and Sunflora in this episode.
Squirtle almost murdered misty.
Squirtle was the Water-type starter Pokémon for players in the Kanto region.
Choosing Squirtle was a loose analogue to picking the "medium" difficulty in a regular
video game.
Bulbasaur will steamroll the first two Gyms, but his final evolution is not that strong
(at least in the older games).
Charmander will have a hard time with the first two Gyms, but his final evolution is
very powerful.
Squirtle is considered to be somewhere in the middle in terms of viability.
The whole "Starter=difficulty" thing was dropped in later games, and players can now
choose any starter they like, without having to worry about the long term ramifications.
Like all of the other Kanto starters, Squirtle found his way onto Ash's team.
In the episode "Here Comes the Squirtle Squad", a group of sunglasses wearing Squirtle
are manipulated by Meowth into believing that Ash & his friends are the bad guys.
Ash is forced to battle one of the Squirtle squad.
During the fight, a wild Goldeen injuries Pikachu.
With Pikachu incapacitated, the Squirtle Squad kidnap Ash and his friends.
Ash convinces the Squirtles to let him go and get medicine for Pikachu.
Meowth translates the Squirtles threat to Ash – that if he doesn't come back by
noon tomorrow, then the Squirtle Squad will dye Misty's hair purple.
That is what they said in the English dub.
In the original Japanese version of the episode, the Squirtle Squad said they would murder
Misty if Ash did not return.
It seems that the Squirtle Squad are way more hardcore than anyone realised.
They were willing to become killers based on Meowth's word alone.
Misty becomes violent!
The entire Pokémon franchise underwent numerous censorship in order to see a release in America.
The Pokémon video games have had the Game Corner's removed due to European regulations
concerning gambling.
Clothes have been lengthened to make them less revealing.
Cigarettes and guns have been taken out completely.
Nazi symbolism was changed.
Items from Japanese culture have been shoddily edited to make them more American.
Both 4Kids and Game Freak had their work cut out for them when they brought the Pokémon
franchise to the West.
Some of the earliest episodes of the Pokémon anime had scenes censored that concerned Ash
and Misty.
The two did not get off to a good start, as Ash was responsible for destroying Misty's
bike.
Misty also took offence to the fact that Ash did not seem to care for his Pikachu.
In the original Japanese versions of these episodes, Misty showed her displeasure by
giving Ash the back of her hand.
Misty smacks Ash right in the face on several occasions.
The actual scenes involving physical contact were cut out of the English dub of the episodes.
Misty almost ended up marrying ash.
When you consider that the Pokémon franchise has been going for over twenty years now,
it might come as a surprise to learn that the series was planned to end at one point.
Pokémon Gold & Silver were originally planned to be the final games in the series.
The reason that those games had so much content, and were delayed so many times, was due to
the developers wanting to end the series on a high note.
The amount of cash that was being generated from the franchise ended up changing a few
minds at Game Freak, and the series continues on to this day.
It seems that the Pokémon anime may have also been planned to end with the first movie.
A very early teaser trailer that was shown in Japan has leaked online in recent years.
This trailer contains footage showing an older Misty, hanging around with a young girl.
At the end of the trailer, a Pikachu is shown being given to the girl.
None of this footage was ever shown again.
So what does this trailer snippet mean?
Many fans take this as proof that Ash and Misty ended up together, and that Ash bequeathed
his Pikachu onto his daughter.
This would most likely have meant the end of the Pokémon anime as we know it today.
It is entirely possible that the series could have continued with new characters, or Ash
could have carried on… with the audience knowing that he was destined to be with Misty
in the end.
