Fuck this, I'm posting worst and best
Worst:
>JuniperI was pretty disappointed, she seems like she relies more on her father and does fuckall herself.
>OlympiaDumb gimmick and awful-looking. Later Kalos in general is one of the lowest points of the series, so it's either her or Ramos.
>KarenI fucking hate Karenfags, and she barely had Pokemon of her type. Karenfags aside, least favourite would be Aaron for having the least presence.
>DianthaBarely appeared, looks kind of ugly, and, as with Kalos in general, a disappointing showhorn to fit some nip ideal of France that made Kalos incredibly shallow and unsatisfying.
Favourites:
>RowanCool old man who keeps calm always and shuts the fuck down the Galactic grunts trying to other him. Also really nice the way he just hands the player pokemon in Platinum because he feels it's the right thing to let the kids grow like that.
>NormanFirst time a gym leader gave me significant trouble in Pokemon games. His fucking Slakings destroyed my 10 year-old self who was used to steamrolling earlier games. that he was the only time your father appeared in a game and actually played a role also stuck with me.
>AgathaCreepy old woman who doesn't take shit and loves battling. Fucking cool.
>CynthiaGood team, good ace, nice design
incredibly qt and has a nice role in her game. She shouldn't have appeared so much in Unova, but that wasn't much of a problem for me. How nice she as was part of the reason why I was disappointed with Juniper, I guess.
>>26630361I dunno, I actually liked Iris as champion choice. It really goes with a theme I felt with B2W2 Unova transitioning into a new era, myself. The protagonists are also the youngest-looking to fit.
>>26630113Lorelei actually did stuff in Four Island, so she has that going for her.
