I do agree, Red is absolutely badass and better than Ash. But Ash is more recognizable than Red is. Red appears as the main character in only two generations, one of which is due to it being a remake, and makes small appearances you have to search hard for in others. Ash is more recognizable, more associated with Pokémon than Red is (despite Ash being based on Red), influenced a ton such as making Pikachu himself the mascot of Pokémon, appears as the main character if every single anime episode, and so on. While any other way I say Red > Ash, for an ERB, it's definitely Red < Ash.
