Why she's not a good role model: Hmm, I can only think of her attire and that short skirt of hers but really why should we judge her based on what she wears? It's what you have on the inside that counts! And yet so many people bash her for what she wears :/ And speaking of Dawn's outfit:

I really like Dawn's sass xD It's pretty amusing most of the time! Like in A Maze-ing Race: “Paul!” – Dawn “Hm?” – Paul “Have you seen Ash or Brock anywhere?” – Dawn “Not you too.” – Paul “Pardon me for living. Bye. Let’s go.” – Dawn I couldn't find the gif anywhere but this picture sums it up pretty well xD Oh yeah. Her sass razor sharp and i love it. Some great examples are in her BW cameo. What i love about dawn is actually the worst thing about her. I love that she showed weakness. I loved that she had a losing streak. I love how she had a hard time with pachirisu and gave up on it and then released it (and then recaught it). I love that she lost to zoey in the grand festival. I love that she lost against Maylene (I'm *not* loving that she lost against iris, however >.>) I love that she couldn't control mamoswine and lost a contest because of it. Also, that cry scene about ambipom? Loved it. Why? Because all of those losses lead to amazing character development. She was the only companion that didn't give up whenever she lost. Which was often. And when she did give up, brock and ash (mostly ash) would tell her to keep at it and she never gave up. I think that's why the animators made her catch phrase "no need to worry!" Because in the end, she learned that when times were tough, she might worry a little, but then she'd realize there really was "no need to worry"- she would stay strong and make it through, or, at least do her best to try and achieve her goals. This can be supported easily as well. A notable example is Ursula. When her plusle and minun made her hair stand up and she brought back her "DeeDee" nickname, dawn really didn't know if she could beat her and win the contest and was worried. But then she overcame that worry and (from what i remember) beat her (my memory of her is pretty bad i never liked ursula so if i misspoke, point it out please). Also, idk if this one counts, but her biggest moment of weakness is her departure. Her only 2 friends are about to leave her and go across the world and she doesn't know when she'll see them again, or if she'll never see them again at all. That worried her alot. We know that's true because remember piplup's reaction? He RAN AWAY CRYING. I assume dawn was just as worried and sad as piplup which is why she started crying at the end, but, if ash didn't shout her catch phrase and tell her not to worry, she would have burst into tears. But that bit of hope that ash gave her left her happy and smiling, knowing not to give up, become top coordinator, and to see them again soon! Which, she does, because BW cameo. Does this count as good and bad? If it doesn't, then... My least favorite thing about dawn is the balanced usage of her team. Lemme run down all of them. Piplup- its her main, so its used perfectly. No complaints. Buneary- it bugs me that it never evolved.... they were so close! And especially since it was her first catch, shes had it so long too. Pachirisu- too underused... she came up with great combos using it and won the floroma contest (which i believe was her first win) i mean, it's rivalry with gible amd ursula was great and the fever episode was cool too, but i just wished she trained it more Ambipom- I'd say over used, but thats what i thought before she released it. But, the reason it was over used was because of the release. They did that with ash's goodra too. I kinda wish we could see it again... Mamoswine- used perfectly. I just wish they spent more time together. MAYBE SHE WOULD HAVE BEATEN IRIS THAT WAY UGH-- Ehem. Togekiss and quilava- i like the usage on them, i mean there was only so much to do that late in the series anyway and i love the dp special with quilava. Yeah i think dawn spent a *tad* too much time with piplup and ambipom, not enough time with pachirisu and buneary and just enough time with togekiss and quilava mamoswine So yeah

How can I put it? I like her first of all because you can identify with her very easily!!!! She is pleasant and enegertic!!! I see in her somethink that I would like to be!!! She is smart, determined, confident, kind, loyal to her friends, trustworthy!!! Also she doesn't give up her goal!!! Conversely, she learns for her mistake and she keeps trying her very best!!!! I mean you can easily pick a reason to make her your exemplar!!! And I can't think of a real reason for not being liked and a model for little girls!!!!!
