What will you and your husbando be like in five years? Will he have grown/shaved his beard? New job? Do you guys have kids or are married? Are either of you in jail or have started a cult? Y'know.. normal stuff.

I dunno why people thought he was dead. It literally said in the postgame bit that it would give him something to be hopeful for. Which is present tense. Meaning he survived.

So glad my hubby is officially alive after years of people doomposting him being dead.

And no Sycamore in sight is definitely an infinite plus. I’m glad my flared hubby is having his happy ending and away from any skanks.

Clemont has literally no mentions on the script. Neither does Bonnie.
Diantha gets mentioned 4 times, 3 about how they wanna watch her movies, 1 about she's focusing on her acting career right now.

All Malva gets. Talking about when they caught the legendary for the weapon back on XY.

GF is utterly allergic to character returns nowadays for some reason but that even characters from the same region aren't returning is just on another level.
I'm fucking pissed that so many Kalos characters don't even get ONE mention but fucking Leon gets FIVE of them. FIVE. EVEN MORE THAN THE FUCKING ACTUAL CHAMPION OF THE REGION. What the fuck is their problem? Literally none of the other Champions get a mention but they've gotta shove him down our throats once again. I seriously hate that overshilled piece of shit character so fucking much it's unreal.

Personally? I think the XY games are unpopular so Legends ZA is an attempt to course correct and appeal to a new audience. The Kalos characters aren't too cared about so they made new characters that will be popular.
>>58389376
This feels like a little bit of a different scenario if only because it's a direct sequel to XY. It's like playing BW2 and Elesa isn't there even though she would definitely be there, if that makes sense?

I think the ingame reasons given for these characters being gone feel half-baked, especially considering Lumiose is the cultural mecca of Kalos and the most populated city in the region. Characters like Clemont, Augustine, Diantha or even Alexa being MIA is very silly. I'm sincerely hoping that this is just being done to sell the DLC passes and some of them appear in there.

Thank you, it's such a disappointment how they handled the Kalos big ones, the ones that are notorious in the region.
Dismissed after 5 years timeskip by "remember [person]? uh yeah, [person] left/quit", zero other details.
It doea read like "oh yeah, hoopa took them away to a battle resort island property of a kingdom and acting as a region on its own, sometimes we get news from there".
Region own gym leaders? Champions? Appearing ever? Maybe in some 2D art used for the ads found in the Lumiose posters and screens. Sad.

Calm down anon, it’s all fiction and people are allowed to have headcanons and fantasies and be disappointed when they don’t match up with the turbo sanitized version by Gamefreak.

At the end of the day he’s going to fall into irrelevancy in a few months when gen 10 is announced and the new husband of the month is revealed.

Corbeau is still very much a menacing character who openly alludes to doing grimy things to protect Lumiose. He’s just sweet and goofy in his own way. Nonnas are free to interpret him however they want.

He could still be a sweet guy to those on his good side. (And I assume ingame you're gonna stay on his good side.) Whilst also being vicious to those on his bad side. Like, drug lords have friends but they also have enemies.

With how so many people drew the short straw at least one single person had to draw the long one.
If nothing else, I'm glad it was Volo because there's plenty of his story to go about and his story is still a very interesting and heavily lore relevant one.
People say GF loves Cynthia, but honestly, she's always given me the vibe that they push her not because they want to but because they have to because of how popular she turned out.
If you really wanna see someone they want you to love no matter what then look no further than Leon. Or Lillie. Or most recently, Iono. Now that's shamelessly milking and pushing a character.

AZsisters have 3000 years to headcanon about. And considering how he was present on every important past event chances are that in future Legends games, if they're set in the past anyway, he'll have an appearance or mention or two.

Eyelashes can have different colors irl like other anons have said already. I've seen people with really light lashes, some even had a gradient going on.
My issue with eyelashes in nu-Pokemon titles in general is how unnecessarily thick they are. Even the "most natural" black ones sometimes just look like the humans put strange black stuff (not even mascara or any make-up, but some kind of putty) around their eyes. Maybe it's the shading? Dunno. But I don't like it. And I think the lighter options suffer from this design choice.

Depends on the universe... the first thing I thought of is that after the events of BW2, we're basically on the run from the law. Maybe we'd live semi-off the grid in a country that wouldn't extradite us back to Unova. I wouldn't mind helping him still run Team Plasma (or a similar cult) from behind the scenes kek. It's fun to be evil sometimes in scenarios like these.
On a different note, has anyone joined or contacted the pokehusbandos webring on neocities? I've been thinking of joining it myself, but the sites on it seemingly haven't been updated since November of last year, and they're also all pretty incomplete.

NTA, enjoying different franchises is why I'm mad at the state of Pokémon. We could and should have so much better. Even the husbando meat is redder on the other side. Though, ZA's got some decent husbandos, better stock than SV's for me. Still could be better.

I tried that in my mid 20's. Tried the 'being normal' thing and got rid of my Ghetsis tulpa. Found a 3D man, thought it would be good. But just ended up in an emotionally abusive/controlling relationship for 4 years. Such a waste of time and I lost all self esteem/confidence.

I dunno, it just feels like for some of us it's not meant to be.

The trick to Pokemon popularity is simply having main storyline relevance. No matter if early or late. Players having to engage with the character and their story yes or yes no matter what. He's set from that alone. Pokemon players don't play Pokemon games but at the very minimum they complete the "main storyline".
Notice how whenever someone asks "why is X human Pokemon character not popular? They're cute/hot/etc" it's some character whose screentime and relevance is optional, tacked on some side-quest or out of the way thing. People aren't forced to engage with that, so the amount of people who will get to know those characters is minimal by comparison.
A prime example of this "forced engagement" is Ingo and Emmet. Why did they catch fire unlike all the other Battle Facility people? Because you're FORCED to engage with them once. Granted, there's other reasons for those two but I'm sure you get the point I'm trying to make here.
Plus, he's an early reveal character, a base is already established for him. Probably the biggest of all the pre-release reveal characters. Personally, I think Corbeau's set for life.

As the thread's local submas oldfag/veteran I guess I should probably actually clarify that Ingo and Emmet are more of an anomaly than you think and you're just a little off. Time for an impromptu "history lesson" I guess.

So the truth is, being forced to interact with them in B2W2 is actually something that didn't exist in the previous game, you could play all of BW and catch every single Pokemon without ever coming into contact with Ingo and Emmet if you just didn't give a single shit about the Battle Subway at all. They got wildly popular despite the fact that they're such literally whos in their own game and I think what happened was that Corocoro introduced them and a bunch of artists just went feral because twincest was/is popular with Japanese fujos and their designs just spoke to people with very specific tastes. (In particular I see a lot of overlap with Megaman fans but that's a personal observation.) As for me, I remember finding them really interesting when I first saw their official art and then I was sold once I saw all of the fanart coming out about them. The reason you have to talk to them in B2W2 is probably because they really wanted to pander to this very odd case of a budding fanbase for characters that didn't do much besides look a certain way, talk strangely, and battle you to either potentially fuck up your streak in the battle facility they run or be an obstacle to overcome on your way to collecting BP for the items at the Prize Exchange. The Subway Bosses are particularly notable for being some of the first human characters to get real, actual merch because before Gen 5 human characters getting anything of that sort was basically unheard of. They were standing beside ultra-popular characters like N and Elesa in terms of importance despite having NO role in the story whatsoever. It's a big reason why before PLA people were just baffled about their popularity and always asked why they were popular lol.

>Submas appeals to twincest fujos, twin fantasy yumes to a lesser extent, trainfags, fans of quirky/creepycute character designs, angst lovers with PLA
Even If he's something like "edgy with a hidden heart of gold " or "rat bastard man", I don't know if that's enough to trigger the same kind of autism those two did.

Corbeau is an antihero of sorts, not exactly an antagonist as he does seem to genuinely care for (You) and Lumiose City while still being a little scummy. But I find him to be more comedic than outright threatening like Volo whose entire appeal for most yumes is being genuinely fucked up in the head and giving off rapist vibes.

So I don’t really think he’ll trigger that sort of insane autism. He’ll have very dedicated fans though, but I think Urbain will unironically end up being just as popular as him considering the blatant ship tease between (You) and him. Dude really grows on you.

Hoes ain’t loyal but as long as they give us good fanart, I’m not complaining.
Although a small selfish side of me is hoping Corbeau doesn’t reach Kiki/Submas levels of popularity just because I don’t want to deal with overpriced merch from scalpers (if they do end up releasing merch of the ZA cast, that is, though they don’t seem to be that likable as the SV kino cast)

In a traditional Pokémon game, Corbeau would be in the position of 7th or 8th gym leader. He has his segments, but isn't fully involved in the main plot. His story battle looks decent, but could be better; even he was disappointed about it when you defeat him. I can see him around the same tier as Raihan or Larry.

Yup most of that was cute the first 2 times but if we could go back to something akin to

like... just that, for the most part... that'd be sick. Something in the middle of GSC and RSE, perhaps more leaning on GSC in terms of legendary involvement in the story. I used to be a huge villainfag (still am for the older gens) but none of the newer villains (save for Volo) really scratched that itch so, dunno. Might as well be absent, I don't care anymore.
Leaks say a game where you "walk between Hoenn and Sinnoh" has been in development and that sounded super-exciting to my Emerald-rotten, Platinum-adoring brain at first glance... Then I remembered it's a nu-Pokemon game (and might get canned anyway now that everyone knows about it) and that excitement was diminished, just like that.
Can't say I cared for Ohmori's approach for characters, either (not that it's bad, I'm just not sad to lose it) so eh.
