So, I think we all know that Ash probably has one of the most useless roles in the Pokemon anime (not including the movies) anymore. I mean, when you think about it, his character developement never really goes anywhere anymore. Not to mention, he never ends up fufilling his goals anyway. From what I know, too, Black and White (anime) was the last series that featured Ash.
What do you think about the never aging wannabe Pokemon Master?

Nobody really likes Ash. He has so little personality that if he had any less he'd be a robot. He gets around by typical Anime logic and main character power. It also makes little sense how his Pikachu and some of his other Pokemon stay at the same power.

I know right? I never really understood why they choose to give Ash such little character developement. He was great in the first two seasons.

Well, Pokemon is aimed at kids so I guess they didn't care. Still, they could've done better than that.

Well even in first season pokemon was geared more towards the general audience. Like, it had some more themes to it than just being aimed at children. While it was a kids show, it had some dark realities in the pokemon itself. Not to mention, the character developement was so much better. I know shows that are "aimed at kids" and have developement that is so much better than the later pokemon seasons that it isn't even funny.

I heard that they kept ash like he is just to enrapture new kids for cash.

It was sort of a marketing ploy to keep the character around. It could have worked if they just...developed him better.

It's really funny because, if you take out all of the later generations and focus on the movies, his character developement is great. XD
