yeah Kimahri didn't have that much to do with the story in X but he certainly didn't suck. he's a humanoid blue lion!! screw gaming stats, just picturing them going at it, Kimahri has my vote.
really, Kimahri is like a reinvention of the animal-like people in the first games. he's friggin cool looking. even if Kimahri couldn't beat Red, one of the normal sized Ronso could take him out. Kimahri's like 9 feet tall and he's SMALL for his kind.
