NPC Face-Off

[Dramatic Melody]

Welcome to the NPC Face-Off!​

NPCs, or Non-Player Characters, make up a bulk of all the main series games. From that suspicious red-haired kid outside Professor Elm's lab to a tall green-haired fellow who can hear the voice of your Pokemon, these characters essentially make up the plot of the very games that your player characters unfold throughout their journeys.

This face-off will be putting all of these different NPCs against each other, to see which one is your favorite! Due to the immense number of NPCs in all of the games, I will be dividing them according to certain classifications. You'll pretty much get the idea once the face-off gets going, so without any further ado, let's get this going!

CURRENT ROUND: ROUND 20 - NOTABLE KALOS NPCs

So the past five rounds have focused on the past five regions, which means that this next round will focus on the newest region - Kalos! XY brought us several very interesting NPCs, and this round will face off the most interesting and notable out of these NPCs!

The round will be simple. You will have five points each post, and you are allowed to distribute them in any way you like, so long as you heal at least one contender and hurt at least one contender. Voting is once per hour, and the last contender standing is the winner!

With that, here are the contenders!

Sycamore - 40
Diantha - 39 [-1]
Lysandre - 40
AZ - 39 [-1]
Emma - 42 [+3]
