Sun & Moon marked the return of trainer customization to the Pokemon games after being skipped in OR/AS, and with the reveal of the new protagonist designs it likely means expansion to the options for trainer customization system will be happening in US/UM as well.

That said, what types of clothing would you like to see included? What about new hair style and colour options as well?

It was a bit annoying that Sun & Moon didn't have any dresses available for the female clothing options, despite X & Y having dresses. So I do hope that we get some added, and maybe more skirt and long pant options as well since in S/M, most of the female's bottoms options were shorts.

Definitely, because it was the worst.

I didn't mind getting mostly green, blue and purple because I like those colours anyway (I played Moon ofc) but it was definitely a lame excuse by Game Freak to encourage people to waste their FC on dye stands in Festival Plaza just to get different colours.

Hopefully Game Freak have learned from how badly the colour distribution was handled.

the type of clothing i'd love in these games is completely unnecessary for a region like alola. i'm talking skinny jeans, beanies, hoodies etc. oh, and every colour option unlocked from the start, including for the hairstyles.

I honestly felt S/M was a step backwards from X/Y in the apparel department.
You do have a point I agree with. I felt the only options I had for my trainer were just tank tops and shorts, and no I don't take tropical climate as an excuse for that.

While it might not seem like customization to a lot of people, I would also like for the battle pose styles to be increased. They add a fun extra thing to keep things a bit more interesting and individualized in the countless battles.

Plus I really want clothing options for villain teams and main characters from prior games. I think it would be a really fun feature
I just re-opened up my shop specializing in HA and Rare Ball pokemon! Feel free to check it out!

New dresses or Hairstyles maybe? I wish for more variety of dresses and caps as well as new bags too!!

Welcome to the rhythm of the night

How about some actual variety? I get the need to fit the tropical theme, but for crying out loud, let's see some actual choices! Maybe I want my character to wear proper full length jeans and not ones that come down around her ankles. Jesus.

Also, I'd love to see some proper coats. Some cameo costumes would probably be too much to hope for (some nice mods on Youtube show how awesome this would be) but at the very least, some more long-sleeved garments would be lovely.

...and maybe some swimwear. If trainers can wear them, why can't I?

Also, hair colour options. I want bubblegum pink hair and I want it now.

Also, QR code design outfits. This was a thing in Animal Crossing, why can't it be a thing in SM? Let me make my own designs. If you want something done right...

That's one thing that comes to mind for me as well, I felt like it's odd to limit selection of colors because I was having dilemma while I enjoyed Sun but unable to find blue color variety of the clothing... with exception of those who came by default and some others like Surfing Tank.

Plus, I want them to have more clothing varieties, please.

more collection of bag styles maybe?
You do have to admit it gets annoying that the bag styles were dependent on gender, but it appears we're likely still going to have the male stuck with backpacks while the female will still keep the shoulder bags knowing what I feel will happen.

I think the reason why Game Freak stuck to one bag design for each gender (backpacks for males, shoulder bags for females) was so that they wouldn't have to make entirely new renders just for a minor feature.

It was also why the bags in X/Y stuck to a design theme, a sling-over for males and totes for females. In fact, the male's bag options in X/Y had no differences other than simple recolours.

With the embark of a new game comes along with the joys of trainer customization!
Here are clippets of the new & improved protagonists if you don't recall them:



Pretty cool right?

Here's what it looks like what new articles & styles of design we'll be getting!

Male Customization:
-Board shorts! They remind me of the shorts for the male protagonist in B2W2
-Leggings/Wetsuit/Tights/Whatever you want to call them! Gotta love that fad right guys
-New Hairstyle! You'll be receiving that dashing swoop that'll make everyone jealous (hopefully)

Female Customization:
-New Hairstyles! Look at those braids!!! (I'm in love)
-New Hair design! Gotta love that huge decal on the boat hair
-New Floral pattern! Pink Hibiscus all the way
-New Shorts design! Matching with the Male's board shorts, it seems like there's a cropped legging underneath them, giving that B2W2 character vibe

Anyways, that's all in the trailer to break down!
What are your opinions on the starting design? What are you hoping to see? Do you like USUM's base character design than SM's? Why or why not? Discuss below with any questions & comments!

Funny you say that since a shirt with a vest and tie was one of the female clothing options in X/Y. But yeah, programming different bag styles would be a hassle in itself since they do have system capabilities to take into account, on top of the fact backpacks are mainly used by men while I always see women carrying handbags and totes. Gotta stick with what's trendy as they say.
