>>18446699>comparing Pokemon's standards of story to a bookOK, even I don't go that far. I'm not asking for novel storytelling, but Sycamore makes enough sense to be a decent character in Pokemon standards, probably one of the best in terms of actually forcing themselves to give a shit.
What I WANTED is for the champion to have a little more fucking presence as to why she's the goddamn champion. But she's never there, she's never properly given much of anything, and you can easily replace her with, say, Wulfric or someone. Does that help?
