>>40530723> HauHau has a pretty terrible characterization, at least Gladion's and Lillie's are built on strong foundations, Hau is a rather boring character and just flips on a dime from happy-go-lucky to super serious it would've been interesting to see that maturation of a character in a Pokemon game but Hau is a poor attempt and failed.
> LookerLooker's a weird choice but I can understand where it's coming from, I think his Gen IV, V and ORAS roles were kind of minimal but you're probably referring to his Gen VI and VII roles in which case I think it was an interesting case, the parental-esque role is an interesting one that isn't often touched on and I think they did a good job with Looker's character for what it's worth, Gen VII was a bit of a downgrade in comparison I think had Looker's character concluded in XY (since ORAS takes place before XY it's fine) that would've been best.
> BarryBarry is a bit closer to what Hau could've been although he's more so the half-way between Blue and Hau, I think his character works fine although he's not exactly the strongest presence in DPPt, I'd argue Cynthia and Cyrus both trump him in characterization and even though appearing less I think Dawn/Lucas and Volkner do a better job.
