Beru reminds me so much of Barry from Sinnoh, except female version. She takes the same color scheme from Barry and everything. I just wonder what her personality will be like; from the image, she looks quite friendly. Cheren looks tough, and I hope her his looks reflect her his role in the game as well. It's been too long since we've had a rival that actually puts up a close match against the players.
N, he's always looked cool - he even got a cool name too. He's still pretty mysterious, but I'm curious to how he plays along in the game. Interestingly enough, he doesn't seem like he's the rough type trainer, or at least that's how his artwork portrays him to be.
I'm just pleased the storyline of the game is being taken more serious. It's about time we have a game that really utilizes the plot and its characters. So, I have some high hopes for this game.
The Pokémon are looking good too, not much new ones (that we haven't seen before) were released though other than Munna's evolution and Wooguru. Wooguru by the way looks really cool. I can see myself using this as my Flying type over the region's common bird, which by the way doesn't look like it has much relation to Wooguru like some originally thought.
