All time favorite pokemon character!

Out of all the pokemon trainers, which is your favorite?

Mine is Kiawe, I loved his trial! and all his appearances in the anime were always really funny, lol

Blue from RBY is my favorite. It's really cool how he's built up throughout the entire game before you face him as champion.

Probably Arven from Scarlet/Violet. Clarifies something on this. Chooses Arven for being the most interesting, not the most likeable. Starts off pretty bad. Learned more about his situation. Understood why he reacted like that. Felt like a very real character.

Appreciated the bond between Mabosstiff and Arven too. Talks about a bond between trainer and Pokemon throughout the games. How often do you see people and Pokemon interacting outside of battle in the main games, though? Thinks of Lillie and Nebby, Leon and Charizard, and maybe Yamper and Sonia. Cannot recall N and Zorua interacting at all (as someone who played Black over a decade ago and not Black 2/White 2). Discovered some information about Gladion and Type: Null, but mostly with neither present. Liked Arven and Mabossiff for capturing that bond well. Argues that to be the real essence of Pokemon's story, more so than the battles and catching them all. (Views the battles and Pokedex completion as the grease for the wheels.)

Steven Stone is the only one to come to mind for me atm that really stands out in a good way. I like his design and I like his team.

Probably Roy (Barry) from Platinum. Not sure how I'd feel about him if it wasn't for the character RP I was doing for that run, but I still remember it fondly!
Don't really care much about the characters in Pokemon games in general though.

I like Mela, from Scarlet/Violet. Very relatable past (I was bullied a lot growing up), similar personalities, and generally same attitude. Though I have to say that I don't understand style, it still is a cool thing to love fire types. 🔥

Out of the girls, Lillie. I absolutely adore her design and her personality is just so sweet too. The anime made me love her even more. <3

From the boys it's kind of hard to decide, I adore Ilima, N, Cheren, Cilan, Volo... like how do I pick?? Lillie is my #1 so it's an easy choice there but for the boys I feel like a lot more of them on the same level. Gotten pretty attached to Arven too.

If side game Pokemon characters count, then Grovyle from Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Explorers of Time/Darkness/Sky.

Cynthia, because she's just iconic. She can be iconic because she has personality. Incredible character in the original games, it's also good she is often found in other generations too. She has one of the best designs indeed. The second is indeed N.

Him!!!!!!!! ❤️

Leaf from FR/LG. Such a classic, timeless character design :)
