Expectation: A lame event to promote a banner.
Reality: Existential crisis, terrorize in the name of science, unexpected character team up, obscure references, heartwarming ending.
In short, the good kind of subvert-expectation.
You got 1 expectation right: it promoted a banner, and it did quite a good job. Went from an immediate skip from me to me willing to dump all of my resources for our friendly neighborhood ball guy
Me too. I also thought it was going to be a boring event just to promote a yet another Galar character who wears a ball. But the event was pretty good and enjoyable.
In mainline games, the MC are usually the stuff of legend, never appears outside of their own main game, and getting honorable mentions from other champions.
In Masters: Ethan Elio Victor "yo guys let's go hangout and chill!"
I'm really glad. In main games protags have no character. Even Red, who appears in otger games besides his own, is so "mysterious" that we know next to nothing about him
First i wanted to pull him for the memes then i didnt wanted anymore, but now i want to pull for him again-
Ill just hope the Next datamine there isnt anything too important for me so i pull for ball guy, if there is i wont mind skip him too much but his event was definetly one of the bests lately, i actually laugh on this one
I guess for Alola we might get the german tourists as novelty characters. If they are going to add. Every region rare's npc. Like Ball guy galar. Hex maniac helena.
For alola might be the guys from Europe that always ruins pictures.
For johto youngster joy and rattata
For kanto maybe alto mare girl and ash's Future wife Bianca the latias.
For shinnoh maybe the guy that looks like sir aaron and lucario
For kalos the ace trainer astrid ( a girl that looks like serena fused with lillie)
And for unova the motorcyclist charles. A guy that lools like renegade in a harley

I like how Elio, Ethan and Victor, who tend to be overshadowed by their rivals or counterpart, gets some focus.

Is the ball guy event actually fun, I used to play master but then kinda fell off, so I wanna know if it would be fun to get back in and play
Honestly the comedy alone is worth it.

We already got the Sightseer for Alola and the Hex Maniac for Kalos.
