Friendly reminder that Leon, Cynthia, Lance, Red, and literally every other character are nothing compared to the PLA Protagonist.
>directly chosen by God itself, a privilege no one else ever gotten in a Pokemon medium that matters
>canonically captures the gods of Time, Space and Matter at their full, unrestricted power, and as an added bonus, goes and captures a bunch more legendaries (including the embodiments of emotion, knowledge and willpower)
>canonically the ONLY trainer to EVER wield ANY portion of Arceus' direct power
>canonically the reason the Pokemon World as we know it ISN'T destroyed or perverted into a schizo's paradise thanks to the feuds and power struggles to gain a grasp on one of Hisui's Gods for selfish reasons from the likes of the Clans or Volo; Without the protagonist, no one like Red, Lance, Leon, Cynthia, Steven or any of the other protagonists would exist the way we know them or exist at all
>the only character to canonically secure their own existence through an incest timeloop
