Agreed, and I love it. Regardless, she seems like a fairly friendly person.Olivia's design is quite possible one of the most fanservicy designs in a kid's media I've ever seen

Was anyone put off a little bit by how...I dont know...robotic...the main character seems? It looks like s/he has one permanent emotion, smile, and it gets somewhat creepy. No matter what happens, they always seem to have that stupid generic grin on their face. I never see their eyes change, or brows change or just...any really expression at all. I dont remember X/Y being that one-dimensional for its main character's emotional range. The previous ones it was unnoticeable since you were always a sprite seen from above or really had just eyes and thats it, but now that there's more detail, it seems weird that everyone has facial expressions and emotions other than the main character. I halfway expected a twist at the end to reveal the main character was actually a Ditto the whole time.
That kind of bothered me, too, at first, but then I started to find it rather amusing when other characters would look shocked, horrified, or elated, and the main character would just be standing there with this blank, almost dead-eyed look of contentment on his/her face. There were a couple instances where the main character's expression actually changed, though, but even then, those expressions were never as animated (for lack of a better word) as other characters'.

Does anyone find it kinda weird that Lusamine dissed the player for putting Pokemon in the PC at the same time as Mohn giving benefits to those Pokemon for the same person who Lusamine dissed?
Also, I found a weird plot hole. In Heahea city, I went to the Tourist centre and one of the people in there promotes Poke Pelago. Considering this, it'd be rational for Poke Pelago to be popular. However, if this was true, it's be highly likely that Lillie, Gladion and Lusamine would hear about Mohn, the guy who runs it and is also their family relation. But they don't know. So why does this person in the tourist centre promote it if it's rare?
It actually quite annoyed me tbh. Not sure why GameFreak would go this route. Maybe they were expecting us to be having the emotional reactions and the main character avatar was just there by obligation.

What do you guys think of the elite four typings this gen? I personally really liked them, as before this gen there were 6 types left to be used (Normal, Grass, Electric, Flying, Rock and Fairy) and this gen covered 2 of them (Rock and Flying).
I'm also REALLY happy that there wasn't a Dark-type elite four member, as this meant that we got a Dark-type gym leader equivalent instead.
Also, has anyone noticed how there is no Ice-type specialist in Alola, after it being specialised in in all 6 previous generations? I suppose this was supported by the fact that Alola is a tropical region.
This means that there are now just 4 types left unspecialised in:
Normal
Grass
Electric
Fairy
How much do you bet that next gen uses all four unused types?
I was kind of surprised to see the Ghost-type get a female specialising in it again (four women in a row - Phoebe, Fantina, Shauntal and Acerola).
I then thought to myself that Lana was another female Water-type specialist, finally, after so many generations of male Water-type specialists.
I feel the next Ghost-type specialist will be male.
It would be nice if next gen there was a male Fairy-type elite four member called Sylvester.
There has also been a necessity for them to put an Electric-type specialist in every game so, after so many Electric-type gyms it would be nice to keep up with the theme but instead have one in the elite four.
