No, because he invented / built (and, was manufactured) an automated bobbin winder, and a machine for testing the tensile strength of wire.I stand corrected.

Also the fact that the trainers stay the same as their Pokemon evolve could be seen as a commentary on someone with Asperger's finding it difficult, if not impossible, to change, though the world keeps changing around them. And then Pikachu chooses not to evolve because he wants to prove he can become stronger without evolving.
And after all these years Ash still looks like a ten year old. A sad reflection off my life. I started watching it when I was ten and in some ways I still haven't grown up.

How even these creatures that mostly just say their name have their own personalities and are so different.
Makes sense. If you have more than one cat or more than one dog you see they have markedly different personalities.
I remember the Pokemania of the late 90s. I watched the show, I played the Game Boy game but I couldn't for the life of me understand why so many other kids battled with trading cards. To me that was just a non video game version of a game that should be a video game.
