>>45880005Thank you for your kind words. They mean a lot. I feel the same way you do. Trying to even begin to wrap my head around the full implications of what this green headed fuck means for Pokemon as a species is enough to drive someone insane.
As of yet there hasn't been a public beta leak for BW and I'm not part of any secret clubs to know what anyone outside the company has access to. All of my information comes from publicly available Japanese interviews and Q&A sessions that were done around 2010-2012, combined with my own personal moonrunes skills finally progressing to a level where I can conduct meaningful literary analysis of an RPG for small children. I have Masuda's blog to thank for giving the most valuable information to conduct my own investigation of BW's script, but unfortunately I have no real means or insider contacts to learn anything that doesn't already exist in the public sphere. Really, I just have too much time these days to think about Masuda's OC.
For my own enjoyment I'm doing my own translation of BW in my off-time to practice my skills in the lowest stakes form possible. I find working with the story in a critical way has both deepened my understanding of the narrative and its relation to the prototypes we've been shown and left me frustrated (holy fuck I could babble for hours about the effect removing N's clairvoyance had on the validity of an N=Truth/Player=Ideal interpretation of BW), but my only hope to get answers for some of my unsubstantiated suspicions is a beta leak from our fileshare overlords or Game Freak themselves revisiting Unova in the future. Pray for my brain, this Pepe Silvia shit is going too far.
I remain convinced that the Dark Trinity were the Striaton Trio up to and including BW's release and no amount of canon backpedaling can tell me otherwise.
