>>52428937the only way you believe its time travel is if you take crystal-made AI Sada at face value and read absolutely 0 subtext around the events that transpired
>Scarlet Book tells about fantastic creatures living in the crater>not only were none of them ever caught they didn't even get a good look at them besides blurry photos and some "yeah i totally saw a demonic jigglypuff in the bushes it probably had a tail and lived a billion years ago">suddenly right as the professor finds crystals they start shitting out these monsters everywhere>time travelers also conveniently love to talk about every entry from the Scarlet Book, except the one where the dude literally enters a dream world to talk to the entitynot to mention that literally noone else had time traveled, attempted to time travel, or shown any result of time traveling anywhere. Why are no people time traveling with this machine? You don't make a time travel machine and suck pokemon out of the past with it like a temporal vacuum cleaner. Every time theres been time travel in Pokemon people were simply whisked back to the past by Celebi or Arceus yet that didn't happen this time. Since it's clear its the third legendary pokemon doing this, why isn't it just doing simple time travel like the others if its JUST time traveling?
Because it isn't.
