>>30901932>not playing as SerenaAnyway, Trevor and Tierno felt like wasted potential, since Trevor's whole science fan/dex completion aspect is completely overlooked, while Tierno was added into a game without contests, making his gimmick almost pointless, and neither of them did anything relevant when they showed up. Calem was Brendan 2.0, and Shauna was annoying, probably my least favorite.
I had the same problem with Dexio and Sina, it was nice having assistants go out and do things for the professor, but all they really did was upgrade your dex and nothing more. At least SM gave them monotype teams.
