She’s miles better than Hugh lmao. She’s the best rival since Blue

>>59165516
>diverse
DEIdea

>>59165516
>Rival
>But there's no actual rivalry at all
Nah this shit is lame a fuck

>>59165516
How badly would this game fuck up a developing boy's taste in women?

>>59165516
This was dumb and broke my immersion, she should have had to have a lobotomy to start over

>>59165529
???

>>59165522
The region is Pokemon Spain so it’s not really diverse since she’s a native.

>>59165520
Hugh was great without the need to be edgy. He’s up there with Blue for sure.

>>59165516
I'm playing Scarlet now, I like her more than most rivals, probably third favorite behind Blue and Cheren, but she's also a bit bland and uninteresting. Idk if she grows or changes much later on or in DLC.

>>59165547
You learn more about her in the final part of the game where she begins to talk about her background.

>>59165538
A rival doesn’t need to be edgy yes but Hugh is so boring. Blue and Nemona mog him

>>59165538
>Hugh was great without the need to be edgy. He’s up there with Blue for sure.
be so fr rn

Good static character, solid personality, fun twist, is also a cute girl which is a nice bonus. Probably the best "nice" rival we've ever gotten, but when the bar is set by Barry and Cheren at merely okay that's not the hardest thing to to (and yet most of the others struggled to hop over that bar, and Hop was trying to limbo instead).

>>59165532
It was implied that she did with a Pikipek.

>>59165588
Barry is gay

>>59165759
so is Nemona if you play a girl

>>59165516
>Brown girl obsessed with white Meat
Accurate

>Silver the true angsty edgy rival. Son of the previous big bad and hostile towards the player. Even steals his starter. Hates team rocket

>Hugh hates team plasma but is overall chill towards you. Battles for noble reasons. Literally your bestie and justifiably hates the villain team.

>Gladion edgy again. Son of the big bad. Gets a legendary he stole. Big bro to your bestie Lillie. Hates Team Aether the true villains.

Hugh is the only friendly rival who isn’t a major pussy. This Hugh slander is forced

>>59165803
Saying Hugh isn’t as good as better, more popular rivals isn’t slander lol

>>59165803
This
Hugh is the coolest friendly rival, not the gayest hostile rival.
Blue is the second coolest friendly rival, though this is at least in large part because of how many autists genuinely think he's hostile, because he doesn't suck your dick

>>59165803
Hugh stands out to me as the only Rival who actually battles you to get stronger. Everyone else is a poser or just coping with some insecurity, but Hugh basically says "yo let's train together and be the best and protect people bro"
No glazing, no "erm actualy im betr than u even tho i lost", dude just wants to fight for what's right

>>59165883
This
Hugh fights you because he recognizes that both of you can get a shitload of exp from this

Hugh is ok when he’s not whining about some shitmon cat

>>59165516
>we never get to fight her real team in postgame
That's the only flaw.

>>59165764
You're decendant from moorish rapemeat.

>>59165516
Nemona going on a New Game Plus playthrough just to help you become the ultimate trainer that can satiate her lust (for battle) was such a good idea. She's my favorite rival in the whole franchise unless you count N as a rival character, which I know some do but I don't.

>>59165803
Gladion is the gold standard of what edgelord rivals should be like.
Two kids and an Edgelord stop a government conspiracy is simply a hard premise to beat

>>59166363
>Gladion
I feel Silver might be higher, if only because he honestly honest kind of sucks as a trainer.

>>59165516
>hispanic
She is flat out regular spanish, that's it.
You cannot even explain what your buzzword "hispanic" actually means, and how it differs from "latino".

>>59165538
>since she’s a native.
lol no

>>59166360
N is the best rival hands down

>Nemona
forgotten character

>>59165516
My favorite Latina

>>59166531
If you want to count him as a rival character, then I absolutely agree he's the best. I just think of him more as a villain team leader than a standard rival.

>>59165516
I thought she was boring and I hate the newage “rival” that’s not actually a rival. I want my rival to be a shit talker piece of shit, not some hyper-positive one-dimensional character.

>>59166531
I agree with the other Anon, N is not a rival, he is the antagonist/villain of the game

>>59167519
>one-dimensional character.
>Nemona
???

>>59165817
>>59165859
>>59165883
Hugh is on an entire quest because someone made his sister cry.
I love this kid

>>59165516
Meh. I liked Arven more.

>>59167670
Arven is a weak gay boy

>>59167775
He cant be weak with all the sandwiches he forced me to make

>>59165516
>hispanic
She's hawaian. Arven is the only spanish of the group

>>59165538
>Hugh
>anything but shit
Bort pls

>>59167775
>clearly designated malewife no matter the player's sex
>"gay"
Arven is a bichad. Spain is the land of passion after all, he can fuck you, your girlfriend, your brother, your sister and cook you a 5 star michelin

>>59167991

Accidentally pressed submit

What the fuck is with all the Hugh glazing itt? Is /vp/ unironically so full of zoomies that started with b2w2 and are so nostalgic for it that they can't see how shit
>muh purrloin
is?

>>59168022
I bet over half the board haven't even played a game without the physical/special split

>>59165522
PalDEIa was right there you fucking retard, how fucking stupid are you holy fuck

>>59167991
You gotta love love and hate zionism, lot of things to learn from Chadrven

>>59168022
>>59168064
>nooo you're only allowed to like the game you started with
Why is /vp/ like this?

>>59168065
This. Reminds me of the stupid hanging Ivysaur image (because it didn't use its own vine).

>>59165516
Spanish =/= hispanic

>>59166360
>>59166531
>>59167473
>>59167558
You love the idea of N. The real N is shit because Masuda was simply not capable of using him. He really isn't a good character until B2W2.
>Verification is not required.

>>59167991
>>clearly designated malewife no matter the player's sex
It's not weird to have a bro make sandwiches for you, is it?

>>59166491
>explain what your buzzword "hispanic" actually means, and how it differs from "latino"
NTA (as in, not OP) but it's pretty fucking easy:
• Hispanic = anything related to Spain (so yes, even spaniards).
• Latino = short for latinoaméricano (Latin American), which is only a thing because Brazil is huge its people speak Portuguese instead of Spanish (and, for some reason, "iberoamericano" didn't catch on).

>>59168190
You're an idiot.

>>59168190
Amerifart...

>>59168300
>Latino = short for latinoaméricano
You are also a retard just like him. Latino is latino, latinoaméricano is the mix of a latino and an american. France, Romania, Spain, Portugal and Italy are latin countries, they are the "latinos", and the "latinoamericanos" are their descendants with american blood.
Characters like Geeta, Arven and even Lysandre are "latinos", characters like Skyla are "latinoamericanos", very different thing.

>>59165516
She was bland and forgettable

>>59165516
I like that she's taller than the player character especially when you play as a boy

>>59168387
I agree, Nemona looks aesthetically pleasing next to the MCs, especially if the MC is a boy

>>59165538
>muh sister cat!
lmao all unova rivals suck ass, bort

>>59169037
They just have a certain vibe, if you play as a boy. You know what I mean?

I liked Nemona, but she makes no sense to me. Why is she so invested in the player character? Normal people don't act like that.

>>59169157
She has a crush on (You) dumbass. She's so quick to give you her number

>>59169157
You’re her new… well… toy, as the new kid in the neighborhood.

>>59169157
She loves battling and battles everyone. She battles you and you are amazingly good for someone with zero experience. Why wouldn't she be invested?

>>59169157
Like the other anon said, the average Pokemon trainer is genuinely retarded, remember they consider knowing type matchups and what held items do to be a big deal in universe, so when you click ember into her spigatito it's probably the in universe version of a new player scoring a perfect in a fighting game against a vet.

>a champion
>not THE champion
participation trophy region

>>59165524
She goes to great lenghts just to have a competition with you.
Anyone else would've seen you being a novice and, at most, forget about you untill you get to champion.
Its 100% a rivalry.
>>59165883
Wouldn't Barry count too?

>>59169305
Can you imagine how wet she was when you first showed up with 6 pokemon?

>>59169310
Nemona is stronger than PaGeeta thoigheverbait

>>59169157
She likes fighting in a nuGen game in-universe not even E4 members have full 6 pokemon teams

>>59169310
>>59169396
Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't there only three champion-level trainers in Paldea? Florian, Nemona, and Geeta?

>>59167775
>weak
Nigga has been on his own since he was like 6 years old and got a stocky ass body for a teenager, on what fucking planet is he weak

>>59169310
>you can't become a champion unless you beat the elite four and champion just like in the other regions
>participation trophy

>>59169555
Yes, but anon is brown and likes to talk about games he has never played.

>>59169555
Yes, and despite being poorly reflected ingame with her story team, Geeta is canonically very strong, that's why Nemona is the only Champion in the recent years and she's known even in Lumiose as a famous champion expert in any kind of pokemon, making Nemona even more impressive in comparison.

>>59165516
I like her because she arouses me, greatly.

>>59169656
>and she's known even in Lumiose as a famous champion expert in any kind of pokemon, making Nemona even more impressive in comparison.
>No bro trust us bro Geeta is strong bro please stop making fun of her bro forget how she jobbed to three badgeless kids in the anime bro pls pls pls pls she's strong bro
lol
lmao
I don't know what's sadder GF's sad damage control or you swallowing it up. I bet you're one of the copers who think she's totally just lying when she says the line.

>>59169691
nta, not OP, but I don't consider horizons canon.

>>59169691
>please ignore canon... look at this test in the anime... please!
Like I said, it's poorly reflected in gameplay (her team sucks) but lore wise she is strong, not my fault you are illiterate, bro.

>>59169555
Nope, Arven and Penny are also stated to be champion lv for some fucking reason (unless I'm missremembering) but they say you need 3 champion tier trainers to get access to Area Zero

>>59169713
>look at this test in the anime
Hi ESL

>>59169736
It was a literal test in the non-canon anime you dumbfuck, and yes I speak more than one language, must be hard to understand for you who got filtered by the lexicon used in videogames and anime for children.

>>59169757
>malding ESL thirdie
kek if you learned properly you wouldn't be so obvious, given that you got mad I'm gonna say you're a jeet.

>unless I'm missremembering
You are. Arven tells you he wants more than one champion and someone good with machines, that means he needs you to become a champion, to recruit Nemona and to bring Penny too, at no point Arven and Penny are considered to be comparable to champions, in fact Arven wants to try the gym challenge after leaving Area Zero
You are probably confusing the champion rank with the hall of fame, which in Paldea is basically an honorary degree to go along the university theme, not something you get based on how good you are at pokemon battling.

>>59165516
SV as a whole is the best game we've gotten since BW2. shame performance was so ass, it definitely killed any chance gen 9 had to be remembered fondly. but yeah nemona comes off as friendlyand charismatic, loved her intense battle autism and how ridiculous she's supposed to be in canon. it really would have been better if she was the top champion instead of geeta

>>59169782
>he's not even trying to defend his cope anymore so he can only cry over people more educated than himself and jeets
Glad to see you know you are wrong and out of arguments, you can go back to your concentration camps now.

>>59169823
>Glad to see you know you are wrong and out of arguments
Arguments about what exactly? I'm just laughing at you for being a jeet.
>you can go back to your concentration camps now.
the fuck are you talking about schizo?
