    Kieran he has an awesome storyline; it’s a bit confusing at first but it eventually gets clearer that he hate you 😓

    Kieran, and it’s not even close. I like Nemona, don’t get me wrong, and I think she’s the best ‘friendly rival’ to date. However, Kiki’s such a refreshing and unique take on an antagonistic rival, and honestly, he might even be one of the best-written characters in the series.

    For me, Penny. Just feel like I can relate to her best… not that I would hack into the Pokémon League’s system to steal school funds… probably.

    I like Arven for his devotion to his dog, his backstory, his cooking thing, and his character design. He's a very silly guy :) Nemona gets second place for growling at him tho lol. I haven't played the dlc yet, so maybe that will change my opinion. This is the first Pokémon game outside of the mobile games I've played too, not really relevant, just makes it easier to like the characters because I only really remember the indigo league anime and the sun and moon anime. Honestly wish they would've kept Jessie and James for Paldea. I got way off track lol
