[[quoteblock]]*UnfortunateImplications: The message when Ash lost the Pokemon League first time was [[TheDeterminator \"Losing is not the end, you can always try again better next time\"]]. This would have been a great aesop, if it wasn\'t for the fact that this is being applied in a show where FailureIsTheOnlyOption no thanks to the writers of the show having the idea that [[InsaneTrollLogic if Ash wins even once, the show\'s over.]] Not surprisingly, after the [[spoiler:Kalos finals]] many fans start saying a certain quote: [[FamilyUnfriendlyAesop \"You will always fail no matter how hard you try.\"]] One commenter even stated this:
--->\'\'\'Brandin Strayhorn\'\'\': [[ShaggyDogStory Ash represents no matter how hard we try at something, no matter how long we work, no matter how good we are, no matter how much blood an tears we put into something, we will never succeed. Even if we constantly lose and keep trying we will still fail.]] Bullshit.[[/quoteblock]]
An UnfortunateImplications example needs a citation. At least link where the quote came from. Or at least have this entry moved under \"Family-Unfriendly Aesop\"/

Yeah. An AssholeVictim doesn\'t need to be a HateSink or TheScrappy. The author might have [[AffiblyEvil written them to be suave]], they might have traits that the audience latches onto, [[DracoInLeatherPants despite]] or even [[LoveToHate because of]] the author\'s intent for them to be despised. Or they might have no character at all because they\'re a PlotDevice to get the episode going.
