Why isn't she in the new game? It would've been the perfect opportunity to make her more popular

Zoomers and Alphies have no idea who Audrey Hepburn is. She's a lost cause.

unless they grew her hair out, made it not grey and de-aged her by about 20 years, she was never gonna be popular

Comparing Diantha to her is an insult to Hepburn. No amount of "it's based on this!" helps save the design when she was supposed to be beautiful, but Diantha looks utterly fugly

>>58497129
The sad part is that the Teraleak posed her as early 20s. Lysandre going off about her age like this is literally him saying "WOULDN'T YOU ALWAYS WANT TO BE BEAUTIFUL?" at a woman half his age

No female champion will ever be popular because Cynthia exists

Best League music and best League design.
The almost holy setting, those huge windows and fluttering curtains.

I like her arena and music a lot.
But other than mega-gardevoir and Aurorus, her team is kind of a mess and lacks identity.
Hawlucha and Tyrantrum feel very out of place.
Goodra feels like a pokemon she probably wouldn't use and its just there because le champions needs le pseudo legendary dragon
Gourgeist I can kind of see, but its not really something that should be on a champion's team

She should've had Florges ive been saying thos for over 10 years. Insane misstep by game freak just because they wanted focus on gardevoir only

Yeah literally any color besides the dull gray-brown they gave her. I've seen art with her in dresses and with jewels in her hair, and it makes her look great. I think her wearing shorts and what looks like a suit jacket just made her look kinda like a butch old lady.

They don't want decent designs to become popular again, people would hold them to a higher quality standard.

It’s something about her eyes that makes her seem old, imo

the problem is that kalos despite being the supposed beauty-themed region doesn't have a lot in the way of beauty-themed mons, and a lot of the ones that do exist are either shitmons or have type overlap because the amount of new pokemon is significantly lower
and making diantha a psychic or fairy-themed champion would have come at the expense of stepping on the toes of gym leaders. technically wallace and alder got away with it but they were also from a third version and an optional postgame fight respectively

No nu-male Champion either.
No one has any problem with Lance and everyone loves Steven.
Sure, Cynthia set the bar pretty high, but let's be honest, GF plain and simply someway somehow forgot how to make Champions after her for some reason. Not everything has to be Cynthia-tier, but everything since her has been below-average at best.
There's a bigger far fundamental issue happening beyond Cynthia setting the bar too high.

They are simply trying too hard. Im not going to be impressed nor am I going to remember the nth champion that gloats about how strong they are only for them to be a shitter. Its cringe we've seen it again and again. I geniunely like Diantha simply because they didnt even bother with that.

Iris was the best Champion though

Iris had external problems Game Freak couldn't really fix due to the anime irreparably damaging her image. She has a great team, theme, design and aesthetic but came from games that not many people played and were following up BW's heckin epic subversion of expectations

That being said if Iris was the XY Champion instead of Dianthack, people would've actually called her a glow up. It's the same time frame, if she "left" Unova to train in a new region and B2W2 set that up then you find out she was the CHAMPION of said region instead of being a nepobaby hire because Alder got too old and the protags of the last game disappeared then people would've probably actually been won over by Iris
