Why is Gary such a loving bitch? Does he and Ash have some beef that I haven't heard about? I heard a story that in Lavender Town, Gary was there and asked Ash, "Do you know what it's like to lose a Pokemon?". In the previous battle on the ship, S.S Anne, Ash defeated Gary, leaving his Rattata injured, and he couldn't get to the Pokemon Center in time and it died. Gary seems to be a prick before this too. Does anyone have a clue?
