Can we all just take a moment to appreciate the last legitimate Pokemon Professor?

Every professor since has been a meme one way or the other. I miss "real" professors like Rowan. And they keep getting worse and worse, I never thought there could be a professor worse than Juniper, and then boom - Sycamore. And I really, REALLY thought they couldn't do worse than Sycamore. Then we get the absolute worst professor to date, Kukui the living fucking meme.

I seriously miss Rowan.
