I don't mind the constant Eevee love too much, they only really started to consistently give the girls an Eevee in Kalos and it's not as bad as Charizard. However, they should probably stop after this generation, it's gonna start getting a little predictable.
Now, if this is where Chloe begins to zero in on her dream, I only have one thing to ask... please don't let it be a contest/contest counterpart. I love Serena, Dawn, and May but their goals were just so similar, fun but very similar and the ending of their journeys were basically the same. They fail in the finale, learn that they can hone their skills in another region, and go to hone their skills.
