I would've rather had Hilda be the female Unova companion rather than Iris. Seriously, what was the point of having her in there anyway?

I haven't seen the Unova part of the anime, but with the whole "mirroring gen 1" thing that gen 5 did, Cilan travelling with Ash made sense, mirroring Brock, but I don't think Iris was a gym leader in the anime (unless I'm mistaken) so Hilda would've been the more obvious choice seeing how the gen 3 and 4 female leads traveled with Ash.

That was their goal. Only problem was that they basically went Misty 2.0 without really making the joke work.

They could have made it work if after her calling Ash out, she was called out asking what she would have done. Then just having the characters throw her into a loop until she says she'd do the same thing Ash did would have probably made it a bit funny and probably cute.

I think they intended for Iris saying "Such a kid!" to be cute, but failed.

I think they intended Cilan's "I'm a X connoisseur!" thing to be funny like Brock's hitting on Nurse Joy and Officer Jenny, but failed miserably at that too.

I'm still upset that they didn't end up using Blake and Whitnea in the final game. Same thing with Xavier and Yvonne. If not the games, then I wish the manga would use those names rather than going with dumb shit like "Lack-2" and "Y"

At the least the names go together and have some sort of meaning which is usually thematic.
> Lucas and Dawn = Lucas comes from Lux which is the Latin root word for Light while Dawn is a time of day
> Hilda and Hilbert coming from the Germanic "Hild" which means battle, I think.
> Rosa and Nate = Resonate,
> Calem and Serena = Calm and Serene.

I have no clue about Brendan and May, or Ethan and Lyra, however.

Etymology. Touya/ko has the fight moonrune, Hilbert/da has the battle prefix.

I can only think of one alternative off the top of my head, and that's Louis(Ludwig) and Louise.

Ironically enough "Blair" (which was a popular fanname for Hilbert) has a similar meaning behind it and is also gender neutral.

NAMES ARE COOL.
