OK, since there are always those who said these topics were discussed like 20 years ago already, I'm making a general Pokemon Anime Plothole topic.

Here's a question that just hit me on Facebook. Who is Ash's father? I'm not saying it's Giovanni, but someone laid an argument that Giovanni is SILVER's Father, and therefore, cannot be Ash's. I have three claims against this:

1) Why can't Giovanni have two sons?
2) The poster of the argument said it was revealed 'offically' during a Celebi event, but I don't buy that because (s)he should have told more clearly, but apparently couldn't since Facebook is more for instant replies.
3) Anime plot can differ from the game plot!
