>>52508448>Maybe he was worried that the general public (and his sponsors) wouldn't like that they go into this crater of legend and only come back with photos of weird circles, crystals they can't use with their level of technology, and a tablet they can't move, and he throws in the paradox Pokemon just to give the book some bite and go "well we couldn't find the legendary treasure...because there were these monsters! Great, powerful ones that split the earth with their bare fists!" and now you have a good story for the masses and a convenient excuse for the people with money who expected a proverbial treasure chest.That sounds plausible enough yeah. Or maybe he really just wanted to insert his own fantasies in there for fun. Could also explain the Raidons, since Cyclizar was his partner pokemon.
>Really, this has been the first Pokemon game with actual lore deep enough to warrant threads upon threads of discussion, not even BW, the first game that had something resembling a decent story, could manage that.I know right? It's actually fucking baffling that GF managed to do something like this. They wrote a lot of charming characters AND wrote a cool mystery plot that only gives some breadcrumbs of hints and explanation, just the right amount to spark up speculation without having an obvious explanation.
I know that the game is an unfinished, rushed mess but my god they really polished the story and setting, and that makes up for me how shit the game is in other aspects for me, even if I'm a bit ashamed of that.
