Most of us already know who our favorite Pokémon is/are, but there are many other characters besides just the creatures we all know and love. Which human characters from the series are your favorites and why?

Definitely AZ. Such an interesting concept for a character, this lonely guy wandering the world witnessing 3000 years of history.
You could do so much with him, I'm kinda sad we're probably never going to see him again.
I like the fact that he was mentioned in ORAS during the Delta episode by Zinnia as a mysterious figure that had appeared like a thousand years ago during Mega Rayquaza's last appearance and commented on it before disappearing again.

Maxie and Archie are another two big favourite of mine. They were the first "villains with good intentions" I had met in media when I was little and for some reason they just left and incredibly strong impression. (Not matter how stupid their goals seem)

I know that if I were really a trainer, I'd be more like Cynthia.

moreso because of how she carries herself than anything with how calm and confident she is.

I have to say Bonnie. She is so adorable, but she is also very brave. She didn't have a single prejudice bone in her body.

I don't know if I have necessarily have any favorite human characters, but I'd jump at the chance to meet one of the Pokemon professors, specifically Professor Oak or Juniper. It would be fascinating to pick their brains about all their research, and to get a better understanding of the Pokemon world as a whole.

Seconding the love for Bonnie!!! Her dynmamic with her brother, as well as the cute, sister-like bond she has with Serena, us so adorable...

Iris!! I love her tomboyishness, her big brown eyes and round cheeks (cute!!), her pastel outfit, her sarcasm, the way she teases her friends, but absolutely has a heart of gold and cares deeply (the Deino episode ;___; the way she cheers Cilan up after hurting his feelings, making up with Ash after a fight, her and Ash sightseeing in Nimbasa all day...).
She has a temper and she’s very motherly to Axew, she loves nature, and is spiritual...

Her dynamic with Cilan is also so cute!! Reminds me of childhood ships like Hanawa x Maruko and Rocketshipping: I love blunt, sarcastic, tough tomboys and upperclass, charming, pretty-boys with more luxurious tastes...

Shootie/Trip!! He might not be written much like a main rival for Ash, but he’s a very unique character, and the way they slowly start to become friends by the end and work really well together in a pinch is sweet!!!

I love the royal/noble theme of his team, his voice (in the original, more), design (the asymmetrical haircut’s pretty unique!), his sarcastic and aloof nature, the way he has to prove he’s so grown-up (which Iris uses to trick him into battling Ash like, twice, PFFT), and the fact he can be very kind (wouldn’t take advantage of Oshawott’s fear but helped Ash notice it, offered to help Iris with her phobia, protecting Castelia, etc.)...

His ends justifies the means mentality in the Venipede episode
Spoiler:
and the way he obstructed Ash and company because he was too cynical to believe in peaceful methods working, but also because he just loved the challenge of fighting the strongest opponents...

I really liked how when he finally did see it could work, he quickly saved Ash’s Pidove and they worked together (even if he did avoid Ash’s gaze ^^;;). ;3;

But also that he was very expressive and shy and, honestly, sweet as a younger kid. His Alder fanboying is adorable. The biggest thing that makes him totally different from Paul is the reveal in the Junior Cup
Spoiler:
how insecure he actually is, under all that, how much Alder forgetting him upset him, and how everything he did as a trainer was motivated by being acknowledged by Alder... ;___;

Lillie, I often gushed about, but also, she’s especially dear and important to me since (abusive/neglectful/narcissistic mothers are still rare in media, she had trauma-induced memory loss, and I also loved cats from afar after getting scrached as a little kid (still have the scar!), and when I had overcome my fear, my first indoor cat was a Persian cat named Snowy [named after Snowene, Kimba’s mother], can’t make this stuff up, I’ve got pictures and a webpage I made as a kid as proof).

She’s just too sweet and endearing and you can’t help but want to cheer her on!! Her smile makes me feel like my heart’s so full, it’s gonna burst! She’s perfect. ;___;

[attached, one of the tumblr posts I gushed about her in, reblogged elsewhere, since my original blogs are all gone.]

My favorite character from Pokemon would have to be James. He is a perfect example of what is known as a "grey character". This means even though James' role is the bad guy and is part of evil scemes such as stealing Pikachu, at the same time, he has a soft spot in his heart and occasionally does good.

I second Sabrina's appreciation post above me, and would also mention professor Juniper. Also for underrated characters that are probably forgetable as heck, Pike Queen Lucy from Hoenn's Battle Frontier is my choice. If I were to choose a male character it would definitely be Nanu, he is amazing.

Looker, Barry, Steven and Gary.

Yep, Barry and Gary probably annoyed a lot of people, but their annoyance was my entertainment.
I also like Hau, too.

N, of course, Cynthia and Red. They're epic. But if I could add a fourth, I would add Steven.

Gary and Steven Stone, also Green for Pokemon Origins!

I used to love N too, I really liked his writing and story for the B&W games.

Also, fair to mention that when I was younger I liked Drew from Hoenn's anime more than most other characters.
