* In an extension of the above question, why is it that Ash has been shown to be the ONLY person capable of becoming unpossessed, barring the whole "chosen one" thing that only starts to become canonized by AoD, he is certainly capable of being possessed, unless it's a case of "can only possess you so many times before we get barred" rule they never mention in the media.
