this is hau. say something nice about him
>>30219578
Kukui is better
He was fucking annoying as a kid
that art isreally cute
What type will he use? Electric?
>>30219578
>Which Malasada do you choose?
Kek
>>30219578
Cute!
>>30219614
>>30219619
SOMETHING NICE I SAID
>>30219643
not about him but fair enough
>>30219646
ye
>>30219578
I'm gonna say it
Best rival we've had
Wasn't a cunt like Blue
Wasn't an edgelord like Silver
Wasn't a complete pushover like Wally
Wasn't as much of an autist as Barry
Wasn't as annoying as Bianca
Wasn't as boring as Hugh
Wasn't Tierno, Trevor, or Shauna
>>30219578
>tsundere Tapu Koko
I want it.
I unironically like Hau.
>>30219578
Would Hao be hot when he grows up?
>>30219701
dang anon thats really nice and i think i agree
>you will never be a qt grill
>and date a brown shota
>>30219701
Blue wasn't really a cunt, he just threw around some childish insults but was actually pretty nice at times.
He probably just seems like a cunt in to you now because when you played the game as a child those childish insults actually felt like insults.
>>30219578
>tfw suddenly scared hau is gonna cuck me
>>30219701
>Wasn't a cunt like Blue
I found his cuntiness endearing.
>>30219726
Yes,but he's going to be chubby because his hobby is inhaling frybread.
>>30219726
if you want him to be, its up to you
>>30219787
topu cucko
>>30219701
Shittiest of taste.
>>30219683
But it's true
Kukui is just better
He has a hot as fuck wife who he is happily married with
He was a really cool and somewhat hard champ
He basically owns the MCs house
He is loved by nearly everyone
The only bad thing about him is that he got hardcore REKT by lance with his hacked dragonite
>>30219902
hau is just a kid, give him time. kukui is definitely cool too though
Hau doesn't deserve all the hate he gets.
Hau is the least worst "friend" character since Gen IV
>>30219578
So he basically grows up like Waver Velvet
I can get behind that
>>30219984
i agree, hes such a nice guy
>>30219578
There are times when I forget about him, and I can't very well be wishing him death in those moments!
>>30219701
what about Cheren?
>>30220057
honestly, if pokemon wasn't so player-insert-heavy, he would've made a pretty good protagonist himself.
>>30219578
20$ Says this will actually happen in Pokemon Stars
>>30220086
rude... he just wants to be your friend
His chillness adds to the comfiness of Alola.
>>30219578
He's handsome.
>>30220166
id play that game
>>30220181
i hope so desu
>>30219984
I couldn't find it in me to hate him at the end.
he was annoyingly cheerful in the beginning but got a lot more likable as the game went on.
Why are these threads not trashed on sight?
>>30220296
the fact that tapu koko seeks out the player at first makes it all even better, seeing as you could say tapu koko pretty much just wanted to battle the protagonist for his skills
hau on the other hand would still actually have to prove himself to the deity and earn his spot as kahuna, hence more development
>>30220337
because positivity is a wonderful thing. just like hau
>>30220387
i like this a lot. he has way more connection to everyone and we could figure out who his dad isunless we do i havent finished post game yet
>>30219578
>MC now:Haha Hau will never get a girlfriend
>Mc ten years later
>Oh noooo he's hot!
>>30219701
I might have to agree. Indo like Blue as his cuntiness is endearing and he wasn't a totak edgelord like silver. I found Hau's interactions entertaining. Him and Gladion calling each other outbo their respective stereotypes waa funny.
>>30220474
i hope more people draw him older soon, its cool to see
>>30219578
He at least gets a waifu in Primarina, if you picked Rowlet.
Something nice about Hau?
He has god-tier taste in girls.
>>30219683
This particular hau looks better than what we got
>>30220653
i felt bad that she left him, poor hau
>>30220684
2D can do wonders over 3D models
>>30220819
I'm talking about the skin tone tho. That lighter brown suits him better.
>>30219664
The one between kukuis thighs
>>30219578
>Tsundere Tapu Koko
Yes.
Also, Hau's a cool dude. Not as much of a bro as I thought he'd be, but eh, whatever.
>>30220882
oh, i guess so. doesnt matter much to me
>>30219578
He's hot tbqh
Hau is my favorite rival!
>>30219578
if you're drawing him older he'd be a lot more pudgier. he's always running off to eat.
>>30221048
same! im glad you guys like him too
>>30221156
haha true but hes always jumping around too, he must burn calories like a madman
>>30221197
it'll catch up to him. it always does.
>>30221269
hopefully he learns to eat healthy by then, i probably have to do the same soon
>>30219701
Cheren is the best, Hau was annoying. He pretty much forces himself to be happy even when he isn't.
Hau is the worst rivalbut he's the best friend.
>>30219578
I would fuck him.
>>30221522
I agree, Galdion felt more like a real rival, but Hau was a top-tier bro.
>>30221522
>hau
>worse than serena
That pikachu of his is no joke
>>30220462
Positivity is ignorance of reality
>>30221885I meant in Sun and Moon. Probably should have specified. Oh well
>>30221885
His raichu is a serious in-game check.
>>30221920
or it could be accepting reality and making the best of it
>>30219578
he is CUTE
>>30220653
This. I hope he marries her.
>>30219578
He will end up as huge as Hala.
>>30223739
He won't.
He'll go find her in Kanto and get swept by her where she says she's only interested in stronger(wo)men.
Then MC finds her and knocks her.Hau and Gladion spend a happy life together where Hau constantly annoys Gladion with his cheeriness but is caught off guard by a passionate kiss from Hau.
>disliked Hau for a lot of the early game because of his happy attitude
>even asked him if the joke he made towards Lillie was supposed to be funny
>eventually begin to warm up to him as his team starts getting better and better
>once we start fighting the Aether faggots together is when I realize how far he's come and my respect towards him rises
>mfw when he gave me more of a challenge than either of the Elite 4
Hau is one of the best rivals I've fought in a long time and him being a super cheerful guy works better than what I had wanted originally, which was the McEdgelord.
>>30224209
Fujoshi please go
>>30224932
Hau really got a good dose of relatability with his "Have I even gotten any better?" and "I can't seem to force myself to smile anymore." dialogue. I found it great how over the course of the game Gladion develops his own parallel growth as Hau fills out the rival role.
>>30225011
>implying Hau won't be happier with Gladion than with Lillie
You know these trips can't lie.
>>30225327
Liar
>>30225345
Your mother is a liar.
>>30219701
He's not a rival you dumb turd
>>30224209
I kinda started to ship Hau and Gladion with all their back and forth banter.
hau was behind it all along
>>30225096
>>30224932
I cannot believe this is the same company that gave us the four faggots from x/y and Hau.
When he first appeared I wrote him off as a male Shauna. Boy was I surprised how much better he was than them.
>>30225373
I think they fit together better than Hau would with Lillie.
Lillie doesn't seem to humor Hau or respond to him at all.
Gladion on the other hand, even though a stark contrast to Hau, feels like he HAS to say something for some reason.
>>30219701
>Wasn't a cunt like Blue
Incorrect.
Only a cunt would challenge to a fight you weren't prepared right off a boat, and sweep you a with stupid psychic surfing rat while smiling like a smug asshole.
>>30225592
>Losing to his Raichu
And this imageboard has the gall to call pokemon games "easy'.
>>30225592
>You weren't prepared to fight
He fucking heals you and gives you the option not to fight him, you pussy.
I want Ilima to seduce me and coax me into fucking his boipucci 2bh
>>30219578
Hau must have an incredible metabolism if he looks like that after surviving on a malasada only diet.
>>30219701
He's sooo one dimensional
>>30225466
Pretty much this. They had a much better chemistry and more interactions with each other.
>>30219578
He finally grew a pair and was serious when he challenged me for the title.
Not gonna lie, I considered throwing the match right there.
Keyword being "considered". Fucker got Beast Boosted to high heaven because I'm a fag that loves Guzzlord.
>Tfw Hau grew on me over the course of the game
>Wish he was a qt3.14 brown girl since with Lillie gone, she would have her main obstruction out of the way to winning the Sunbowl
PREPARE YOUR ANUS
>>30227682
PREPARE YOURS
FOCUS BLAST AIN'T GOT SHIT ON ME
I thought Hau would be the annoying shitter you have to stop and waste your time with every step of the way but it turned out that was Lillie, so good on him
>>30227682
>Nigga has a Leafeon and Dank Surfer Raichu
I can't even hate, he has great taste in Pokemon.
>>30228092
For me he had a Flareon. It was embarrassing to watch him spam Flare Blitz into my Snorlax.
>No lewd Hau art
You people disappoint me.
>>30219701
>Bianca
>not Sharon
I know being dumb is a hip thing, but Bianca wasn't really a rival.
>>30219578
He blew the fuck out of Faba.
>>30219578
Honestly he irritates the hell out of me. I honestly dislike the whole "dopey "friend"" archetype.
>>30221885
>>30221942
I don't know what you're getting at, His raichu and Pikachu are pushovers in game.
>>30219778
I think original Blue was fucking obnoxious in all incarnations, but as he grew up he became a really kickass and interesting character. Like in HG/SS and all of the media now like Generations, SM, etc.
My personal favorite was always Hugh because of how simple his character was. I've never really wanted a serious rival, and as far as I remember, he doesn't cross you that often.
I can see the appeal in most of them though.
>>30228300
This was my favorite scene of his. I cracked up.
>>30219578
does Hau have a stand?
>>30228408
I liked Hugh because he looked like he was gonna have some Silver vibes, but then he just turns out to be a bro.
>>30228407
this
you guys need to git gud if hau is giving you trouble.
>>30228539
Quit giving jojo fans a bad name.
Which starter suits Hau best? I like him with Rowlet, personally. I like imagining Rowlet's prissy intermediate form with someone as cheerful as Hau.
>>30228407
he only pretends to be dopey, the happiness is a facade to try and make everyone else feel better about themselves
>>30228949
The Popplio line fits him most
>>30228240
Japan doesn't like him, he is barely getting fanart in pixiv and few he gets is mostly group art.
