yeah everything about rika's design is meant to SCREAM 'i am a man' and then bait and switch you. poor poppy...

but obviously it can't be forgotten. the gen 9 champion of paldea is...

her name is geeta. pronounced 'jeeta.' i'll let you figure out the jokes on your own.

all of gen 9's ending setup is a tragedy that they completely overlooked. indigo disk is nigger content, except for making kieran feel like shit.

Depends how you interpret it. The one might actually be in the future, or they both might be in a paradox dimension. Or the paradox pokemon aren't really from the past or the future and they did die in Area Zero.

Geeta was a decent champion tbh, other than the fact she runs Glimmora last. It's whole gimmick is it sets up toxic spikes. Why didn't you lead with it?

I quite liked Nemona as a rival in gen 9 too.

she actually does lead with it in the refights, iirc. the biggest problem with gen 9's battles in that line of discussion is that the AI just terastalizes their ace into their type specialty regardless of how disadvantageous that might be.

nemona is a great rival, but i think most people hate her.

Yeah the tera thing makes sense though, it's the gen gimmick. It's the same as Z moves and stuff, but it makes little sense to set up hazards and a timer when it's the end of the final match. It's a shame because she's actually not a retard for once otherwise.

She's a little naive in parts for someone who is a champion starting over with you, but she's pretty decent overall. Best rival in many gens.

I liked her and Arven, both of them served their role fine. Penny could've been cut though

Arven was great other than the fact his parents abandoned him AGAIN at the end.

Penny is alright but the team star shot is so dialog heavy. I really disliked those parts, it reminded me of SuMo. As a concept though I didn't mind her, it was nice for once the team wasn't trying to end the world as we know it.

it gets better. this is what her mentor figure in the elite four looks like. i dare you to guess this individual's gender with certainty.

>Child character treated like an adult and given one of the highest positions of power in a region.
>Mentored by an androgynous la creatura.

What did Game Freak mean by this?

Wow That art is another thing i was hoping for. Why doesn't GF release this stuff? They could make money selling art books.

I've done work for a game company before, not as big as Pokemon, but a popular online game. The main answer is because they don't want people profiting from it. It doesn't stop all of the bootleggers, but it stops enough of them.

But... what do they gain from sitting on it? That seems pretty stupid reasoning.. but it does sound like something modern business might think. :/

They gain it never being used for profit by third parties. Even among "normal" artists I know, none of use post our art at 100% resolution, because of art theft. It's an easy way to spot if something is stolen.
