Top Ten Reasons to Like Dawn from Pokemon

Can you believe some people try to argue she was more girly than Serena?! I'm sorry but, that is simply NOT true. Dawn was street-wise and had a tomboyish streak. She was one-of-the-boys with Brock, and especially, Ash! She would not have thought battling was so cool and would not have participated in so many battles if she was even girlier than sissy Serena. People who hate on Dawn for being 'too girly' probably never even watched the DP anime. Yeesh!

Both contest battles and regular battles. She battled more than any of the other female traveling companions.

She battled a gym leader (Maylene) which is pretty awesome.

Although I like May the best, this is a good list though.

Actually she is a bit ditzy. The most obvious proof of her ditziness is when she was given a map & still struggled to find the lab. But being ditzy doesn't mean she's stupid or a bad character. It's fine that she has some faults. And being ditzy only means your scatterbrained, not stupid.

She did come up with a lot of combinations that not only helped her, but ash as well. Also, she figured out by herself that ash's pikachu did not belong to team rocket. If she was so stupid, she'd believe that pikachu was theirs like they said and left.

If her brain drain

I watched the first episode with her and when she went to help pikachu I was like "Man she is so kind I love her"

True. She's kind to whoever she can be kind to, and she'd make an awesome friend.

She is sweet as well as smart

She even went to the trouble of putting on a performance with her Pokemon to cheer Ash up after his loss to Paul. She was also helpful to Zoey, who was her main rival.

She was equal to Ash, and thought of him as a friend and good rival, unlike pathetic Serena, who just acts like a wh0re and worships Ash.

Even I support amourshipping
Dawn is better than Serena Serena is not the best girl even if I ship her with Ash

She was like a non toxic sibling towards Ash and it was great

Treating a female companion as Ash's equal was the best thing they have done for any female companion. Right now, only Dawn has that treatment. Hopefully we will get more in the future after *cough* serena *cough*

She didn’t stand around and let Ash steal the spotlight. She would even sometimes take action first if Team Rocket was up to no good. And of course, she was always upbeat, working hard and pushing toward her goal.

When she was on a losing streak, she cried, but then dried her tears and went back, more determined than ever! (Unlike Serena) (I feel like this is very commonly said) Serena cried after 1 and had to cut her hair and change her whole outfit just to recover. Dawn stayed strong for three before crying, then stood back up, no costume changes required.

She had several issues she had to work through during her journey. She had to work out problems with her Pachirisu, Mamoswine, and Togekiss. She was on a losing streak for a while, and had plenty of internal struggle wondering if she should just quit or switch over to gym battles. She also had to get over her past trauma with Plusle and Minun. And then there were her complex feelings towards characters like Paul and Kenny.

She has many problems. First with Pupulp,buneary,Then the arguing with Ash in the first few episodes, pachirush,losing 3 battles, mamoswine,tokekiss and deciding Kenny or Ash and she Was also bully by Jessie,Ursula and sometimes, Paul And I am sure she has many other problems. But she did stay strong and continue to follow her heart and dreans

She defeated a Bronzong trainer after The Pokémon hypnotized Dawn and friends. Dawn is one brave girl who is never afraid to be strong and save the day.

When Paul insulted her, boy did she tell him off!

<no comment needed>

Paul beat Maylene in a gym battle and verbally abused her. Seeing how down she was on herself, Dawn reached out to her and encouraged her. Then challenged Maylene to a gym battle, even though her thing was contests.

Dawn would give her life to save a Pokémon, and never betrayed her friends to fulfill her own desires. Serena abandons the group to browse a JEWELRY SHOP. How petty is that?

There is no way that relationship would ever work out.

Oh my God... Why?! What does Dawn have to with Amourshipping?! Oh wait. I get it, Serena is Dawn, right? WRONG! And who in the hell thinks that Amourshipping is *the best shipping out there*?!

Yeah, let's just go full retard on this list.

Why is this on this list though

Yeah, two can play at this game. *sarcastic annoying fangirl voice* Best ship ever!
