Is this the first rival that outright hates your guts? Not like being a dick like Blue or just hating everyone in general like Silver. I'm talking like sheer unadulterated hatred towards you

Bede, Klara, and Avery
I destroyed the BUSSY of Bede and Avery, then I impregnated Klara.
Kieran is the embodiment of Ganker. Insecure, inability to properly display emotions, jealousy, and always second fiddle. Ogrepon was the one thing he loved and he was not only rejected, but embarrassed by the person they chose over him.
We are witnessing the birth of a jaded school shooter.
no wonder I love him
Please, yandere shota, shoot up Blueberry Academy.
From shota material to Eddie Brock of Pokemon. Quite a glow up for a Kieran
Tbf a foreign invader came in, destroyed an entire cultures belief system and then stole its new mascot and took it home.
I'd be pissed too
And stole his sister from him
All that, while wearing the traditional style and flip flops! Very considerate of Florian.

Can the dlc be called anti-Japanese?
>MY NAME'S NOT IMPORTANT
>goes from practically having a crush on you to obsessing over Ogerpon and then seethes because he can't have Ogerpon
>the story forces you to lie to Kieran and take Ogerpon, even if you did not want to lie to him or if you wanted him to have Ogerpon
What the fuck, Gamefreak? This is even worse than giving Hop the other box legendary for being a complete shitter. Why can't I let Kieran just have Ogerpon? He clearly genuinely wanted it, rather than the free gibs that was picrel. What bullshit.
but Ogerpon didnt want to be with him, like evidently. He even went out of his way to do something nice for Ogeron so she would feel entitled to be with him, notice the all according to plan ass smile and framing of Kieran after the whole villager plan was successful
>Why don't she want me man?
And I don't want Ogerpon, but the game doesn't consider my feelings either. The whole Teal Mask story is so painfully CHOSEN ONE it's cringe, and even the moments of vague self-awareness with how fast everyone became friends can't save it.
It reminds me when the gen 6 and gen 7 protags made the same exact smiling faces in every cutscene, even when serious shit was happening.
>The whole Teal Mask story is so painfully CHOSEN ONE it's cringe
Teal Mask's story is a generic Pokémon anime movie, but now it's (You) the player instead of Ash.
>(You) arrive in a new town, just in time for the yearly festival!
>(You) participate in the festival
>legendary pokémon appears!
>hijinks and crisis happens with the legendary pokémon
>all is saved thanks to (You)
>(You) leave and continue on your journey
this is literally how every pokemon story goes, this is the least egregious of them regarding how chosen the MC is and base SV too.
She didn't want him anon.
Why does Ogerpon like the MC more in the first place? It doesn't make much sense beyond the main character being a literal self-insert. The only think I could come up with is that the deceased foreign partner was Paldean and the main character reminds her of him.
Sensed Kieran is homo
Being afraid of girls because of your abusive bipolar sister does not make one gay
Sensed Kieran is a homo and a pussy
you’re the one who gives back the masks and has the Teal Mask get fixed
>and has the Teal Mask get fixed
Kieran and Carmine's grandpa does that, not the protag. It feels even cheaper if that's the case.
And, you even attempt to give it to Kieran to give to Ogerpon, but Ogerpon still won't take it from Kieran. Really sad.
>Kieran and Carmine's grandpa does that, not the protag. It feels even cheaper if that's the case.
And how is Ogerpon suppose to know that? It wasn't around them when they fixed it. They also never told Ogerpon who fixed it. In fact, Ogerpon was also dealing with the fraudulent Stooges at the time.
Likewise, how is it supposed to assume the protag fixed it? It makes no sense aside from genuinely just playing favorites for (You).
>Likewise, how is it supposed to assume the protag fixed it? It makes no sense aside from genuinely just playing favorites for (You)
You're assuming bridges when there are none. She doesn't need to know who fixed it (or that it was broken in the first place). All she knows (and needs to know) is that she has her mask back. I'm not even the one that brought up the point.
The point being that who fixed what doesn't matter in Ogerpon's point of view. She just wants her mask back.
Everyone wants to say the protag did nothing when both you and Carmine get the cluster. The Grandpa has the skills to fix it. Yet only Carmine and the grandpa was mentioned. Carmine was the one to make both of you go get the cluster together specifically because she's "not too keen on letting outsiders up the mountain".
On top of that, you also forgot that the MC is the first one to Ogerpon's rescue. Everyone else came in later as backup after defeating Munkidori.
It's like all anons have 1st-Grade literacy.
The only point (against this) I'll add is that kieran is the one to give her the mask and she says no unless it's the MC.
It's still retarded to say the MC had nothing to do with the mask being repaired let alone had nothing to do with Ogerpon's positive disposition.
In fact, no one seems alarmed about the writing forcing the characters on the MC when it isn't needed (like going up the mountain) and instead focusing on the other way around (The MC itself being forced).
You know, I think I finally understand what the plot was trying to convey. While Kieran telling the village the truth was nice I don't think Ogerpon really cared that much. She was only at the festival to try and grab her stolen masks that reminded her of her time with her fallen master.
Kieran didn't care about fixing her mask or fighting the loyal 3 and getting the others back. Instead he trained his team to fight you. His only nice gesture was, again, telling the village the truth. He thought ogerpon would appreciate that because he himself feels like the adults in his life owe him an apology.
He tries to offer the mask and is denied, because he didn't put any of the work in. He failed to consider ogerpon's feelings to the end and failed to truly understand her, choosing to seethe with jealousy.
that sounds like a lot of thought and some mental gymnastics to justify something even the writers themselves didn't really think that much about
Pokemon's entire lore relies on mental gymnastics and fan fiction tier theories to even make a lick of sense. Gamefreak clearly sucks at making stories (among other things), so they keep everything as simple as possible and hand wave inconsistencies, contradictions, and plot holes. The one time they even put a little bit of effort into lore/story wad gen 5, and most fans hated it.
They didn't hate the story. They hated how they couldn't use Pikachu again
Makes no sense since Kieran has been looking for her his whole life, so my theory is that she died after the fight with the loyal three and was revived by the crystal lake/mask/tera after someone wished for it. Probably Kieran himself unknowingly.
Given its a rural village, she might already be familiar with him and choose not to see him considering Kieran visited her home several times and was scolded for it.
>Given its a rural village, she might already be familiar with him and choose not to see him considering Kieran visited her home several times and was scolded for it.
Hmm...
>The reason it likes you better than Kieran is because Kieran is a stalker and Ogerpon thinks he'll pull a Misery on her.
Because (You) are a gifted prodigy who has the ability to connect with any and all species of Pokemon very easily, as per usual.
The most likely answer however is that based on the text from the Ogerpon boss fight, something about the protagonist's vibes probably reminded Ogerpon of its former partner, and considering how long it's lived in solitude, it only seemed reasonable it would take towards the most familiar feeling it can find if it has to interact with someone new.
The fact that the main character goes on like nothing is wrong and even does a happy pose while Kieran is sulking in the same photograph after already having a falling out made me laugh. I guess the main character is canonically unempathic.
How do you think he'll be redeemed? Will he want to be friends after we smack some sense in him or is he going to curl up in a fetal position on the ground again?
Or become a total monster like Volo. That would be cool.
I doubt they will do it but i hope they make a fakeup, like you getting close to him after her sister gives the obligatory "speech" and extend your hand...only for him to slap it away, declare that "this is not a videogame about the power of friendship!" and fucks off swearing to get more power.
I like how he did the eye thing Carmine does in the final encounter
he is unironically racist nip
He's just so cuckable bros. Like, imagine having a threesome with Carmine and ogrepon while he watches tied up in the closet.
>be me, paired with some nice, but beta native while dealing with his cunt sister
>he starts going on about some legend where some orge got punked by the community
>starts to get a waifu type obsession with it, but idc cause I have shit to do
>legend turns out to be real and I gotta deal with it
>orge mon turns out to be pretty chill and likes me, even wants to come home, idk man
>native partner starts to become all jaded and shit. Dunno why. Maybe it's the orge. Idc.
>spend the whole flight home thinking how I fucked up by not asking Perrin if I could suck the sweat from her thong all this time.
Kieran? Yeah im sure he'll be fine *shrug*
You forgot
>get a sloppy BJ in my dorm room from cute ogre mon while Kierren seethes at his grandpa's house in the middle of buttfuck nowhere
>Bring Ogerpon to Blueberry Academy
>Kieran says the same line
>Don't bring Ogerpon
>Kieran goes fucking apeshit that you didn't even like Ogerpon and he deserves he
