>>55547766- I like his bro character. In addition to looking like and living like a traditionalist it is revealed in the anime he is a bit of a womaniser. By looking at him I am not surprised he has such a big libido and desire for women. It makes sense if he is embodying traditional characteristics and lifestyles it is only natural he also acts like a man full of testostorone as that is what he represents.
I love that big dick energy of his (no homo implied) he is full of life, optimism, joy and energy he is literally the physical embodiement of the sun he embodies solar archetypes as being the lord of his household aka region and act like a healthy normal man raised on tradition would.
- His music is another fine addition as to why i adore him. I like his champion battle theme but his encounter theme is even better by multiple magnitudes. It feels very mystical and captures a western Amerindian style of music ofcourse translated within a modern day context and imagining.
That is another deep detail I love about him and his design it is VERY Western Amerindian inspired even his hair faintly looks like the stereotypical Native American headdress from the Great Plains region.
He is the soul of Unova in my opinion he embodies the life and joy and love of the Unova region. All this further adds to his wisdom of the bond between humans and Pokemon as he is quite literally from a more animistic and down to earth background in experiencing nature.
For these reasons I rank him as the best champion. I love his character and wished there was more of him.
I based my Unova team on him which I consider one of my finest and favorite teams.
- Haxorus | Bouffalant
- Escavalier | Zoroark
- Volcarona | Darmanitan Zen Mode
There is a subtle hint to ancient cultures and mythology with my team such as the Zen Mode Darmanitan that is because I believe that is what Alder embodies: The Ancient Soul of Unova
P.S Under his beige robe are a black shirt and white pants.
