My favorite captain is Sophocles, he is just such a nerd and his relationship with his cousin person is so very adorable. I thought he would be a know it all nerd but he is really close to how I act. I just really like him being all shy and adorkable. My favorite Kahuna is Nanu, he is just a depressed man with a lot of cats, I just like him for being such a down to earth character and for his little snippits of smirks. He is also a dork and I love him for it.
I liked Nanu a lot. He's a jaded old timer who saw things pass him by and overwhelm him. Sadly relatable. For trial captains I liked Acerola the most, mostly for her interesting trial concept. What back room? There is no back room...
My favorite kahuna is Olivia, easily. Choosing my favorite captain is a lot harder. I'd say its a three-way tie between Sophocles, Acerola, and Illima.
My favorite kahuna has to be Olivia too, she's pretty interesting~! And for captains i have Acerola and Mina (because of her personality).
Olivia is best, no questions. Also Nanu, he is amazing in his own way. He just screams the "old man who had all the emotions sucked out of him because of the shit he's seen" type of person. Pls let Nanu be a reappearing character alongside Looker, we need backstory on this man. Also this: Spoiler
It's either Acerola or Mina for my fave Trial Captains. Nanu is like a reverse 'old cat lady' trope. He's got a house full of cats ...And this. I laughed when I got to this part of the game lmaoo he looked so dead inside and that pose.... Definitely my favourite Kahuna
My favorite kahuna is definitely Nanu - I love how... chill he is. Trial captains, it's probably a tie between acerola and kiawe (influence from anime)... mina is pretty cool too!
My Favorite Kahuna is Olivia. She is one badass woman, that is for sure. My Favorite Trial Captain is Acerola. She is such an adorable girl and pestering Nanu has my approval.
My favourite Kahuna would be Nanu. He's a chill guy. Favourite trial captain is Acerola, she's adorable. Also this is great: Spoiler
You and I have a lot of talking to do. You can't simply pull words out of my head like that Also, Nanu had this aura about him that I couldn't help but laugh about. His humor was so dry, I really relate.
My favourite trail captain would definitely be Hapu, she has such a beautiful personality and is one with her environment. She's somewhat old-fashioned and I love her just like that. I find Hapu easily to get along with, she is sweet and caring and will most certainly look after Pokémon. As for the trail captains, it must be Kiawe. Apart from specialising in Fire Types, I love his traditional dances and how closely he is towards the Marowak. His trial was fun, and he has a great personality. He is one cool trainer!
#Adorkable Personally, I nominate Nanu as well for best kahuna. He's so depressed and dark, and some of his lines were HILARIOUS. I mean 'If you don't make it, I'll ensure your remains at least get back home.' I mean, GOD, man! Have you heard of something called encouragement? Well, his 'encouragement' worked, as the mental image of Nanu packing up my remains with that bored/irritated look on his face made me work that much harder to win. Plus, he'd probably just throw my corpse in a Dumpster somewhere. I like Ilima. He's just such a funny dude, and his 'I'm ignoring the Grunts' act really won me over. Plus, you get to re-battle him, and i's nice to do that. #MissingNo
Oh man, each of the captains were lovable characters, even though some of them didn't get a whole lot of screen time. I'd have to say it's a three way tie between Mallow, Kiawe and Sophocles. Mallow's energetic personality is just contagious, plus I love a lady that can cook! Kiawe had my favorite trial by far and I happened to finish it at night, so it was really atmospheric and cool. It helps that he's a fire dancer and I actually got to learn a couple moves from actual pros during one of my trips to Hawaii. It's a lot harder than I thought. Sophocles is also adorable and I love his close cousin relationship with Molayne. Soffy and Big Mo! Favorite Kahuna? Wow...it's kind of hard to pick. Like the captains, I loved each of the kahunas and while Nanu made quite an impression; the guy really doesn't give a crap about what happens on his island. Plus he looks like a Sith Lord. I had Gladion's expression before laughing out loud when he did the Dark-type Z-move dance. XD Hapu takes the cake. She's a very down-to-earth (pun fully intended) person who was just easygoing and always at the right place at the right time. She's hardworking and not afraid to jump right into the action if she or her friends are threatened.
Um for Kahuna I have to say my favorite is Hapu because when you think you finally have her she comes back with full force. As for my favorite Captain it has to be Kiawe. Due to the nature of me being a fire type lover.
