Ash has carried around heavy pokemon like they weighed nothing.

Because he wanted to use the Light Ball which is a stupid item that makes Raichu pointless.

He had a lot of practice carrying the weight of what he did to those Beedrill.

IMO it was impressionable to Ash's desire to not want to evolve him. It wanted what Ash wanted.

A pokemon evolving is the equivalent of a Timelord dying. They disappear and are replaced by a separate individual with the same memories.

Wasnt the premise of the episode that Pikachu didnt need to be evolved just to compete with Lt Surges Raichu?

Pretty standard "believe in yourself" message.

No

It has to be bad writing. Not an inspirational message to children to not take the cheap and easy way out..

Bad.

Writing.

Honestly, its probably that they wanted to keep him for marketing or cause Raichu is somehow more of a pain to draw

I mean it can have a message and also be bad writing.

It's not the most offensive stuff in the show though, it ain't Charmander OHKOing a Golem with Fire Spin at least.

Eh, it was a kids show. Was a standard "believe in yourself" message like you said. Not some adult narrative that needs to be thought of beyond that honestly. Putting too much thought into things that aren't meant to be looked at with a detectives critical eye seems a bit silly.

this (also that raichu can't learn new moves in the anime, while pikachu is still learning new moves to this day, I mean, he learned electroweb 6-ish episodes ago), and he even had a second opportunity in DP, but he refused because he wanted to beat character of the day #65536 with its own strength, and the TRio ended up stealing the thunderstone anyways
