Perhaps to balance out the sheer amount of man Drayden brought to the table, the other possible Opelucid City gym leader is Iris, who is basically Willow Smith before she got pretentious like her brother. She's cute and energetic, and that hair could smother you to death. And I guess it's kind of funny that the 8th gym leader and master Dragon-trainer could be this little girl.
What's less funny, is that she somehow becomes Champion in Black/White 2.
And suddenly, I'm reading her as a soiled brat whose daddy let her be Champion for a day, and she's just messing everything up. Those sleeves are far too big, that is like sleeping bag diameter, not sleeve diameter. She looks like she tried to tame her hair, or at least reel it in, but it ends up somehow looking messier. And what the hell is that pink ribbon dingle doing, how is it even staying on?
She was fine at first, but this little princess has gone to far. She is making a mockery of the position of Champion. Do you think Cynthia, Blue, Lance, or Steven would stand for this? Hell no.
Overall: 5/10
I just think that she tried to be regal and championsy and for a little girl like her that means full princess, for me it's endearing instead of annoying.
ReplyDeleteBlue acts like a champion, but he doesn't dress like one at all. It went so fast that he couldn't get to use a cape or a black coat.
"And suddenly, I'm reading her as a soiled brat..."
