Actually, Nintendo has nothing to do with the anime itself. Ash was only a property of Nintendo through the games, the anime was based off a nintendo product in which The Pokemon Company has all control over. Pokemon is nintendo, but Pokemon is mostly made by Pokemon, Inc with help from some nintendo employees (a good example is Satoru Iwata) and Game Freak. Nintendo has almost no control over the anime characters themselves.
