Not to seem as too much of a hard thinker, and this being one of our favorite characters...but it also might be the story writer's choice, but Ash is really forgetful, he makes ametuer mistakes in a battle and doesn't know any good strategies...
His battling skilles seem eratic, like in Home it Where the start is, Ash should know that from previous battles the recklously charging strait at your opponents is bad and almost always end in a defeat.
Also he whps out the pokedex for every single pokemon, even ones that he's seen before...
It's pretty much the story writer's fualt...but i don't think that they should keep making him act in such a way, he probably 14 by Sinnoh and has such a lot of battling experiance as not to make such amatuer mistakes.
