>>54330266Hau and Hop are good contrasts to each other.
Hau is someone with a lot of skill, but no motivation. There were times when playing SM that I could actually feel him carrying me through some battles, he has genuine skill, but at the end of the day all he wants is to live a carefree life in his home village.
Hop on the other hand has a lot of motivation, but no skill. I intentionally sat back and let a team Yell Grunt take out all of his Pokemon before soloing both of them myself, just to rub in his face how useless he was. This later made me feel bad though when it became clear how much pressure he felt to live up to his brother's legacy and how much shame he felt for letting him down over and over no matter how hard he tried to get batter.
I like that kind of character writing in Pokemon games. It's fun.
