"Is Hau really disliked by most? Personally, he's my favorite rival."

I think it's nice that he acts more like a friend and he has a pretty good personality even if it is pretty artificial. I haven't played every gen, but compared to the older rivals that basically served as checkpoints and annoyances Every so often (barry -_-). Hau was actually like, a proper friend and companion, and you didn't fight him everytime he appears onscreen. I do wish he was dialed back a little, but overall I think he's a good rival character, and I enjoyed sun a bit more because of his presence. via /r/pokemon https://ift.tt/2NZWSY7
