>>52866652*facepalm* sorry bro, reread your post and realized I explained back to you what you already know, without being able to answer where ScarVio fits in.
>>52864662I love posts like this but I'ma need some proof
>>52866369this sent me down a wikipedia rabbithole about Japanese nationalism. I love America and all but I think an evil shadow bank government sent us after the based Germs and Japs, whne they could've been such cool friends. Anyway, I digress. this red metal, the tropes page you posted says its not really an ancient japanese metal, but some weird myth made up during their fascist era. Probably because Japan needed metals so much they made one up. From what I know about Atlantis, the Japs are off their rockers on some nationalist bullshit if they think they are Atlantis lol. I wasn't THERE, I can't disprove it, but come on. What strikes me tho, is that pokemon is running with this ultranationalist concept? in such a ESG-score-friendly "inclusive" game? Maybe it isn't as taboo in Japan as one would think, idk. but the fact that its so esoteric, hidden in late game materials, intentionally vague, only called Atlantis internally, means they are a bit shy about it..
