>>33619993Don't think so lad, plenty of people seem to hate him for other reasons and only shitposters care that he's brown, he's far from the first and he's native to the region that the game is set in so he fits in well, unlike the kangz you'll see in Kalos who are placed in the most unorganized way that it doesn't make sense (like the climate, routes and pacing of half of the games).
Also Hala is the fucking man, always walking around with eyes squinted like he just took a hit from a blunt, asking "Did I miss something?" when meeting the character.
