Another topic regarding an original series Pokémon that may have gotten to the "wrong" trainer: Charmander. As noted in this video, in Charmander - The Stray Pokémon, Brock is actually the one who technically should've gotten Charmander, given how he, among other things, was the one who first called Damian out for abandoning his Pokémon and arguably took the most care of Charmander throughout the entire episode. And yet, in the end, he lets Ash have it, because hey, they needed to give every starter Pokémon to the main character, right? It even made sense why Brock was the first one to take a stand for Charmander, given how he himself had also been forced to deal with an abandonment when his parents had left him and his siblings.
However, unlike with Misty and Togepi, Ash ended up actually doing something with Charmander, and by "something", I mean "a lot", so I can easily forgive this. Plus, Brock wasn't that much into training anyway, so it also made sense that he'd let his Trainer friend have this new Pokémon instead of him.
