Talk:Ash vs Red/@comment-7972498-20150319052054/@comment-24281142-20150319133306

It doesn't matter if Ash hasn't faced it before, he can survive them no problem. He's been shocked, burned, fallen from great altitudes, frozen, and a bunch of other stuff and shrugged it off easily.

As for the more experience thing, thats still something like seven Pokemon against thirty something, and all of Ash's still train at Professor Oak's, so the gap isn't that big.
