Characters you forgot they existed
I forgot who I forgot.
I can't remember.
Pretend I posted the one I forgot here.

Fuck that guy. Useless in the games and in the anime he's the biggest shitter since Cameron.
>>31297908
Why, what's his role in the anime?
>>31297913
gym leader
>>31297913
According to his bio: principal of the school
In reality: shitty Pokemon puns and uncanny valley imitations - the character
He was nice for a little joke then you realize how useless he is because oak = national dex in other games
>>31297937
But that basically all he is
A joke character
>>31297823
every one of them because pokémon characters are shallow robotic husks that only exist to advance an equally shallow narrative that dissipates into nothing the second it concludes
Ballists remember him

Sometimes characters are the vehicle for complex ideas without actually coming off as complex themselves. Don't feel like giving examples but if you don't believe me try and prove me right through a little research of your own and either you'll succeed and learn something or fail and feel content in knowing you knew better than I.
>>31298258
sure, I was partially shitposting
but even for all of their moments, they still overall feel very shallow, maybe it's the way the dialogue is written, maybe it's the game itself, I find it hard to get into pokémon stories when the world they're set in just feels dead and empty

This

Also this
>>31300220
>Best professor has the smallest role in-game
>Because of this everyone either forgets him or hates him
It's suffering.
>>31297823
>no side quest where you have to show all Alolan Forms to Alolan Oak
nigger oak?
>>31300393
Oh my fuck
THIS
>>31297823
>>31300220
>>31300305
>The only professor ever not to get his own "welcome to the world of pokemon" intro
I don't hate him, I just feel really bad for him
he never had a chance to prove himself cuz we was overshadowed by oak in johto
>>31297823
[insert kalos gym leader here]
>>31297927
is that supposed to be eevee?
>>31300460
Yeah.
>>31300460
yeah he spouts off puns about pokemon names every two seconds. they probably make sense in japanese but in the english sub/dub he just seems like a retard saying random shit
>>31300440
Marley was really cute imo
>>31297823
Probably some shitty ass NFE or single stage pokemon made just to fill the pokedex from circa gen 3-5.
If I remembered exactly who it was then it wouldn't qualify for this thread.
Almost all the returning characters in S/M were literal whos. I forgot all of them were from previous games.
>Sina
>Dexio
>Grimsley
>Anabel
>Internet Explorer
