Thread for Alder and Iris.

Alder in particular has such a relaxing encounter theme:

Alder is honestly the best champion after Cynthia. He plays an active role in the story and I actually like that he is out of practice and not the strongest in region. Its a neat little subversion while also being true to life as even the best have to keep on practicing or they will fall behind, you don't just reach the top and then stop ever having to train. And it puts more focus on him being a "Champion of Pokemon" rather than a "Champion of Pokemon Battling". He just fits nicely into the games story with his interactions with the player and cheren and the whole themes of ideals vs truth.

I like that he canonically carries all his Pokemon around at once because he’s from when before PCs were a thing and he just never figured out how to use one.
People meme on him for being weak but him being this giant of a bygone era looking to step down and usher in the new generation makes him one of the more compelling champions imo.

He might not have the best team but it's an memorable team with the volcarona as the ace. I couldn't remember Iris, Diantha, Leon fight at all because their team is just faceless with lame aces
