This time, let's do a breakdown of the choices and why I want to play them so that you can get a better idea of who you're voting for.
Valorie Ryder
Pros: She has a fun personality to work with and a lot of potential for conflict with other characters.
Cons: I accidentally made her redundant by picking up Iris and giving her a Dragonite. Valorie, also being a unovan dragon tamer, would have similar pokemon choices to Iris with a few outliers thrown in.
Dawn
Pros: My favorite protagonist design. Girlpowershipping. Piplup is amazing. Giratina is also amazing, in the exact opposite way. Diverse team.
Cons: Gen 4's story isn't nearly as immersive as Gen 5's.
Hilda
Pros: Strong Nostalgia Factor. Great story. Playing the hero of truth would be amazingballs. High muse. Diverse team.
Cons: I foresee difficulty shipping.
Rosa
Pros: Movie star. Tons of cute outfits. Omg dressup. Honorary Team Plasma member, seeking to continue where N left off in BW2. Diverse team. Beat almost every major character including Red at least once.
Cons: Canonically has a metric ton of legendary pokemon. Rosa using pokeballs would be a big violation of her character; what do?
Cheat the system. Make Hilda and Rosa an Ice Climbers styled duo
Pros: Best of both worlds. Minimal room for regrets. The entire Tao Trio on one team. Does a lot to separate itself from previous trainers.
Cons: The entire Tao Trio on one team. Rosa using pokeballs would be a big violation of her character; what do?
Turn Valorie into a Tyrunt or something. Give her to another trainer. Laugh sadistically
Pros: Unnecessary cruelty is fun. Is not mutually exclusive with any of the above choices.
Cons: None, really.
