>>50796481He is just stupid and is worrying about a situation that won't happen for another 1000 years. Even Leon calls him out.
His whole disaster happens because he couldn't wait (1) day.
Hell, the way he frames the incident is stupid. "I have brought upon The Darkest Day, for the sake of Galar, of course". This is not even TRUE.
He could have had simply said "An energy experiment went high wire and we need the help of the Champion!". Hell, even his fight with Hop and the MC make no sense, Eternatus is already raging... At least he could have made it seem like he though the kids were too weak to fight Eternatus or something.
I am not even sure what they were trying to say. Nuclear Bad? They don’t really stop using Galar Particles and now that Eternatus is active and under control…. They might as well be “Infinite”. So long Eternatus lives that is and knowing Pokémon it is probably immortal in some capacity.
Pic related is a real scene from the game.
