We have a lot of like/dislike threads, but none along these lines. So I figured it's time to create one.
In short, what are you favorite fun/funny moment(s) during the Sun/Moon games? It can be anything from simple funny lines to an entire cutscene. I'll start things off.
The first scene that sticks in my mind is when you're in Diglett Tunnel. One of the Workers you battle has the opening line of "Dig a hole." How is this funny? It reminds me of Ed from Ed, Edd n' Eddy, who often says "Dig a hole." repeatedly when asked to do any sort of digging for the other Eds. As the Eds were a childhood favorite, I can't help but hear that line in Ed's voice whenever I see it. So that always gives me a little chuckle.
Secondly, and probably one of my favorite bits, is during the raid at Aether Foundation. The self-proclaimed genius Faba has a royal screw up that I can't help but laugh at. When he tricks you so he can call in "reinforcements" (see: EXP fodder Trainers), he says that he has the key needed to enter Lusamine's main home, and says that he tricked you. Yet it's Hau who manages to 1-up him by saying that if Faba hadn't tricked us to go down to the wrong floor so he can call in reinforcements, him alongside them, then the PC, Hau, and Gladion would've been effectively up the creek, since they can't get any further without the key he's holding. When Faba realizes that Hau is right and that he pretty much screwed up, his expression is priceless. Not such a hotshot genius now, huh, Faba? He effectively got outsmarted by Hau and walked right into that. Given Hau's upbeat and somewhat, I guess you could say bubbly nature, it's rather satisfying to see him point out the flaw in Faba's "brilliance", as Faba is a character who irks me to no end with his ego. I often wonder how poor Wicke puts up with all that and still be so friendly and upbeat, given who she works with. But that gave me a very satisfying snicker at seeing Faba's "genius" and ego get deflated by Hau of all people.
And finally, a small one, is the amount of personality Rotom gives in its little quips while inhabiting your Pokedex. Some of its lines are worth a good chuckle, and yet show off some nice bits of personality. It's a small one, but it adds a lot.
Now it's your turn. So post away and let's see what moments give you a good chuckle.
