Tapu Bulu: You're the Kahuna now.
Nanu: I don't have a choice, do I?
Tapu Bulu: Nope.
Nanu: Okay.

Kukui: Nanu! Buddy! We're building the Elite 4, yeah! Join us as one of the best, yeah!
Nanu: Yeah, no. Go find someone else.
Kukui: Hm... Like who?
Nanu: Dunno. Maybe take Acerola, won't be as noisy.
Kukui: ...Okay!

I feel like Nanu's the type of guy who would swear in the presence of a child.

@AmethystLeslie

I never meant swearing AT them, just casually using them in conversation

i want it to go real dark. Say he had a partner. just when team skull is moving in. They start bustin them down. Not just in that town but all over. But it's getting to his partner real bad. They can't keep up since someone else is pulling all the strings. He goes to investigate you know who. Ends up never coming back. That's when Nanu moves to that town and at first he's running himself ragged trying to push back against Skull. But then they eventually manage to overtake the town and that is when he gives up.

@Hex_Bags

Kahunas are the equivalent to elite 4, just a bit more active. Captains are the gym leader equivalent because they usually run a trial. So no, we still don't have a dark type gym.

Nanu was awesome, but I feel sad when I see his face. It seems he really does not care or has been depressed in the past. They really SHOULD have gone deeper into his life and character more. But it could just be this person is very confident and does not let anything phase them.

Nanu is seriously the most underrated character in the game.

@JacobAwsum

7y↑10

If you're a trial captain, your job ends when you're 20 years old. If you're a kahuna, you don't quit until the island guardian says so. Nanu seems like it's more of a burden than anything else.

@tyke7324

@TheMillieMania

@LAMBO3601

7y↑1

I loved the part with the celebration of the New Champion and all the Kahunas and Captains doing their Z-Poses and then Nanu in the Background by himself doing his.

That's good character development because 90% of the players loved him.
He's depressing and all but he does care about you and others but his personality shows otherwise.

This is what a Dark Type Gym Leader/Kahuna should've been a long time ago.

This is accurate. I mean, Nintendo's pretty damn bold to put so many references to sex and kinks in a game that's rated E. Because we all can agree things like "You want to do that? Come now, with me?" (Nanu line) and "It's one of those stufful dolls that can move! They're partically popular with single women." (Interaction with stufful doll) was made with sex and masturbation in mind.
