Is there an unpopular or obscure Pokémon game character whom you like more than the average Pokémon fan? Share with us who and why that is.

While I never used the Dream Radar, I did like Burnet's appearance as well considering how she is among the lesser-known characters.As far as "obscure" characters go, I was quite delighted to see Professor Burnet turn up in Sun & Moon, as I'd had a lot of fun playing with the Dream Radar app years prior.
Huh. From what I've seen, many people consider Lyra a downgrade from Kris and prefer her over her HGSS counterpart.A lot of people just shrugged off her removal. I guess she doesn't look girly enough, but that's a poor reason.
Yes, but I think that Kris should win by a landslide because Lyra merely represents "oh, maybe we need a different look", which is shallow and also weird given Lyra's attire.Huh. From what I've seen, many eople consider Lyra a downgrade from Kris and prefer her over her HGSS counterpart.
And the funny thing is... Kris was going to be on HGSS if that PokéGear icon means anything, so I guess they changed their minds kinda late.Yes, but I think that Kris should win by a landslide because Lyra merely represents "oh, maybe we need a different look", which is shallow and also weird given Lyra's attire.
I was actually going to talk some of them myself too. Specifically, Hau and Hop, whom I feel are extremely underrated.The friendly rivals (except the Kalos ones). People do like to think that the only way to compete with someone is if it is with you someone you hate, which is extremely wrong from my experience, since I had a friendly rivalry with a friend and he actually helped me get better.
I just find them annoying and somewhat fake. I don't buy it when they're being nice about losing, but the main problem is that the "rival who is the same age as you" trope has been done to death and there hasn't been a main female one (May doesn't count).The friendly rivals (except the Kalos ones).

As someone that has met people in real life like Blue or Bede, I would rather have a friendly one over an ass that is not even satisfying to beat nor deal with. In fact, my reaction to people like them is let them do whatever they want because that way they'll go away.I just find them annoying and somewhat fake.

This might be headcanoning, but the way the grunts behave make me think that maybe they are affected by the same thing as Lusamine. Kinda reminds me of what happened to Adel Tulba in Trauma Center: Under the Knife 2.Instead of being composed of an angry boss, a quirky miniboss squad and dumb grunts it's composed by a woman who does a good job, her two best friends with unique personalities and goals and grunts who are only doing their job.
I think the juxtaposition of Lysandre's supposed values against the typically haughty and shallow behavior of the team grunts makes for what is easily one of the most thematically articulate villain groups in the core games, alongside Teams Plasma and Skull, and makes Lysandre himself one of the more complex and dimensional villains that the series has offered up.
