They could have given Dawn Hilda's outfit. It's not like her attire was ever used in BW. But I think with all the stick Dawn got with the miniskirt, wouldn't she just get more hate for wearing the very short shorts in Hilda's outfit? |

But honestly hating a character for maybe being "provocative and inappropriate", when, again, THEY ARE ALL 10. |

Back to what DawnForever101 originally asked, I can't help but think about Ash's Coma Theory: if that is true, (which I don't believe in) what if each change in outfit represents a change in Ash's feelings for them? In Dawn's case, that would mean even after their separation, Ash still bears the same feelings he has towards her. |

So only Misty can get away with short shorts? Unfortunately yes with that, AND the fact that you can see her belly button--kinda--in her old design. I know back then Misty was a unique girl in personality, but when people berate Dawn for her miniskirt and practically ignore Misty's short shorts, Misty is always, and I mean ALWAYS protected by nostalgia from OS to be the perfect girl in every way. As for DawnForever101's questions... 1. I think the main reason from a writers POV is that they were just lazy, and in a way, I kinda like that Dawn didn't change her attire, as hopefully if Iris changes hers, Dawn would be unique about her cameo. BUT I will admit, that unlike everyone else here for whatever reason--no offense of course--I would like Dawn to have an outfit similar to Rosa's own instead of Hilda, although I don't mind Hilda either, as by that point it was already BW2 since Ash battled Roxie not too long before Dawn's cameo. Plus Rosa doesn't have anything that's too short that can be criticized unlike Hilda with her short shorts. 2. I think that it's unfair, but mainly because she didn't receive much true character development before it. So really, Serena didn't deserve it, at least not yet. Heck, even Iris deserved it more by this point if this were BW. |

The hair customization part of the game is kind of a bore. Gasp! They should have made her get color lenses for her eyes! That would have been cool.

There was one, and I mean only one hairstyle for Serena that I legitimately like; her ponytail, you know the one she has if you play as Calem or choosing it yourself if you're 'stylish' enough. Stupid not taking hat off policy though. How weird would it be if she wore the green contacts? Or even the brown? |

I don't really like the way Serena looks now. It just looks weird. Her old design was better.
