>The reason people bring that up is because Ash has tried to fight people and Pokemon in the past when things go too far
He actually hasn't though
Most of Ash trying to fistfight people has taken place outside of Pokemon battles and in very specific contexts that are never "I'm losing a battle, better try and attack"
And yeah it is offensive to say the human being physically strong should be a major win con when the whole idea of Pokemon contradicts that. It should be Ash's bond with Pikachu and his Pokemon that lets him win, not Ash relying on his own strength
