10. He's fashionable- capes are cool!
9. He's a good trainer- after all, his Eevee evolved into Umbreon. Eevee evolves into Espeon or Umbreon only when it REALLY loves its trainer. If you care to argue this point, my email is miska0@cox.net.
8. He makes fun of Ash. Need I say more?
7. He's running for President- check out the Gary 4 Prez campaign at Giovanni's Favorites- a shrine to Butch and Cassidy.
6. He doesn't make fun of Team Rocket (hint, hint, ASH!).
5. He ditched those annoying cheerleaders. (Hallelujah!)
4. He's really kawaii (except for the voice) (Note from Dee-chan ^_^: I like his voice... he reminds me of the adorable Miki from "Utena").
3. The names of his ships are actually kinda cool. (Egoshippy, Hellshippy...)
2. His mom doesn't show up and tell him "Don't forget to change your you-know-whats!" in an annoying singsong voice. (At least not in front of us.)
1. He pisses Ash off! That's enough reason for TR fans and Ash-haters to WORSHIP him!
