DesignatedMonkey: Misty was intended to be the overbearing, protective teammate that gets on everyone's nerves due to her constant nagging, but ends up being one of the most sympathetic characters in the series due to how brutally mistreated she gets by those around her. Not only do Ash and Brock's horrible behavior and gaslighting take a toll on her mental health (to the brink of insanity at one point), but her family effectively disowned her due to wanting to raise fire-type Pokemon instead of water-types.

** Ash is a very clear example of this. Almost every episode, Ash actually doesn't do anything and causes destruction [[KarmaHoudini without getting called out for it by anyone except Misty]]. [[RuleOfFunny Still doesn't make it any less funny]]. Though, up until Episode 24, he could have at least been seen as being [[ObliviouslyEvil ignorant to the consequences of his actions]].
** Brock, although he's meant to bounce off of Ash's antics, is mostly just a borederline creepy stranger who is [[BestialityIsDepraved a little too into his hobby of breeding]]. Not only that but he often has very little regard for the companions he travels with (especially Misty), and often resorts to borderline illegal activities (such as abduction) behind the scenes.

Removed Hate Sink since I don't believe it was intended for the audience to hate the characters. Ash's entry also seemed like a repetition to what was said about him in "Designated Hero," Brock's entry relocated to the "Designated Hero" section instead.
