I can think of few technical writing things I'd change:
- More consequences for failure, e.g. if Ash doesn't win a gym battle he doesn't get a second chance at that gym. Combine that with more deadline pressure for greater narrative tension.
- Better story narrative in battles. Every battle must have stakes and must be extension of the story, not just a flashy show of moves. The outcome should have a more profound effect on the participants.
- A bit more conflict in the main group. Personalities should clash as well as compliment each other.
- Much more focus on the regions to bring the world to life. Every region should feel distinctive, both geographically and culturally.
- No one-off characters that people will forget. If filler is necessary, use the characters that already exist instead of new, discardable ones.
- Multiple protagonists that can be cycled through so we're not following Ash all the time. This could be older characters who left the show as well.
- Crazier filler episodes - crank up the humour and weirdness, OS style
- Either scrap evil teams altogether or give them closer, personal ties to the main cast so their stories mean more
