Lana of Akala Island

how you got such a spherical head

Something that's important to keep in mind with these Trial Captains is that they aren't professional Gym Leaders. They're explicitly kids, more like camp counselors than the adults actually in charge of anything. Nevermind the fact that we've seen some young ass kids acting as Leaders in other regions, I'm just saying we can excuse a bit of unprofessionalism in the Captain's dress.

So with that said, Lana is very nice! I like the fishing motif, with a net on her head and hook designs on her pants. Also, as I believe I've stated, I'm On Board with the "small top, big baggy pants" look. And color coordination game is on point.

The one odd thing with Lana is that there's no whites to her eyes - or perhaps she has a flesh-toned sclera? It's not weird in itself, a valid way to draw eyes, but since almost every other Pokemon character does have white around their pupils, it makes her look out of place. Again, I'm not discounting the theory that she has a massive infection of pink eye, in which case the poor girl should get some medication. Too bad the only doctor around is an insane Ric Flair/Randy Savage wannabe.


Overall: 8/10
