>>22394679>Serena will never be a good rival>She will never start out very polite towards you, albeit veeery slightly condescending>She will never be amused by you getting your first gym badge so quickly, but after her, thinking that it's cute that you have some skill>She will never be slightly miffed that you beat her, but still congratulate you cause she was raised by her cooltrainer tigerparents to be a graceful loser.>She will never be angry about you getting a mega stone while she got shit>She will never slowly grow to hate you as you prove yourself a better trainer than her without any effort on a consistent basis, because being the best trainer was HER shtick. >She will never grow distant to your friends so that she can train more and have everyone start worrying about her>She will never snap at Shauna because of misdirected and repressed anger towards you, and upset Shauna's insecurity and self-esteem issues that you now need to smooth out>She will never maliciously attack team flare members to vent, to the point where even team flare seems sympathetic>Lysandre(or one of his scientists) will never tempt her to team flare with the prospect of artificial mega evolution giving her the even playing field to fight you on>She will never fight you with a very competent team, and have a different reaction based on weather or not you use mega evolution ("How dare you hold back, do you think I'm not worth your full strength?!")>She will never angrily storm off to a dangerous place to train>She will never have one last battle with you after having beaten the champion yourself>After you win, no one will never approach her while she's at her weakest, crushed by the weight of the fact that you've stolen her place int he world that she trained so hard for, and offer her strength>She will never re-appear as an antagonist in Z/X2&Y2>She will never be the Tsubaki to the player's Noel.There was so much potential here, and they just wasted it.
