I do not appreciate them shoving their own agenda down our face, besmirtching the lore and sanctity of this beautiful city.

it doesn't even make sense for an island to be birthed by a giant meteor impact. Something catastrophic to create land from an impact would have decimated maybe half the planetary surface

Plus it ruins the English name, at least.

Why Sootopolis City if not for soot?

Islands dont work that way since that is literally still a hole to the mantle meaning it should still be erupting.

This bothered me a ton too. I can buy magical creatures shooting fire and water at each other, but a giant meteor making an island crosses some line.

I did not buy the remakes, but reading the plot synopsis and watching some videos really irked me how GF changed Hoenn's story and history. Granted, RSE did not have the best story around, but they took an already ridiculous premise and made it even more bizarre, and not necessarily in the fun way.

The multiverse stuff doesn't really bother me, since Emerald is technically an alternate version of R/S, but things like naruto-esque natural energy beneath the earth and Sootopolis' origins being retconned feel so weird.

The meteor could have easily fallen before humanity was even thing you know.
We had Primal Groudon and Kyogre literally changing the geography of the planet with their shitstorms, a meteor or two during that period wouldn't make much difference.

Except it didn't, it crashed into Earth some 2-3,000 years ago, since AZ was alive to witness it. It's explicitly explained in the Delta episode.

Mt Chimney is at the heart of the mainland and is an active volcano

Sootopolis is a sunken, flooded, dormant volcana at the heart of the Hoennese sea

To argue it is the meteor makes it even more retarded than if a meteor formed it. If it were that big most of Hoenn would have been fucked up by the impact, and if it is the meteor why are they living in what's supposedly the impact from a meteor then? Did they just smack each other and form a Mega Fug meteor snowman?

Makes sense since Magma tries to use a Meteorite to make Mt. Chimney erupt, and actually that never really made sense in Ruby and Emerald but suddenly they have reason to believe a Meteorite would cause an eruption

I don't think that was explained in ORAS, and It didn't have much to do with the Delta episode.
