Ice Cream Sand Witch

The identity of Madame X has been a common topic for speculation on the forums. Most people think it's someone we already know. I think it makes sense to think that, since it would probably be harder to set the surprise factor if the mask is removed and it's a face we've never seen. I think I've found a candidate who I haven't seen anyone suspect. Here are some possible hints that Madame X is Zumi: 1. Z is the first letter of Zumi's name. The letter X can sound like a Z in some words (ex: xylophone). Being Madame X instead of Madame Z would take suspicion away from Zumi while also allowing her to have a similar aesthetic. The Xen in Team Xen is also probably pronounced like Zen. 2. After the Advanced Pokedex quest is done, Zumi heads to Grand Dream City. This is also where Madame X told Nastasia to take the Shadow Pokemon data. 3. Zumi is a researcher. Madame X has some degree of scientific knowledge, considering she was able to apply Melia's DNA to a Solosis.

Why don't we have the rest of the pictures yet? Don't we usually get all the pictures around the same time?

Ace members are beta testers. The beta is posted in the ace subforum.

Re: Magnezone, Caz said there'll be a place to evolve it in episode 4.

Hex Maniac or Fairy Tale Girl.

So, an interesting thing happened. I took a nap earlier and had a dream about the E16 status going up to 93%. Normally when I dream there's a minute or so after I wake up where my brain still thinks the dream is real, but for some reason I just had this feeling that the status actually had gone up to 93%. So I checked and it did. I think this is what's called deja vu?

Jan said in his AMA thread that Rejuvenation is planned to be the first in a trilogy (and also the longest game of the three).

It refers to ace members, yes. There's an ace (and staff) exclusive subforum which is where the betas are posted.

Where are those talking grapes from?

The Garchomp battle at Pyrous Mountain and Dittoceus are intended to be like this. The quickest way of beating a tough battle against a single Pokemon is to use Perish Song. Some people do this against the solo PULSEs.

IIRC, when Ame posted this picture she said these were the ones she had done up to that point in time (meaning not the final values). Also it's possible the hidden first line isn't actually a person but the name of the code used for relationship variables.

TIL in 2005 a group of artists knitted a 200 foot long bunny in Italy and left it there.

Another connection is that if you speak with the officers blocking off the south exit to Kugearen, they mention a meteor. Deoxys is commonly associated with meteors, and meteors are always used in the main series to change its form. This is where Anastasia ran, and it could be where she got the DNA to make the Dexoys. We still don't know how she went from shy to cold, though. Maybe if we're not done going into the past (which I don't think we're done, going by the fact the officer you can save mentions a place called Stoplight City or maybe Spotlight, I forget which), we'll see what caused her personality change and why she joined Team Xen, like we saw what made Vitus/Indriad snap. She seems to be the second in command, having authority over the other executives and dealing with Crawli without much difficulty, so maybe she was the first to join.

Also, Generations isn't really canon to the games, the main source. Something happening in Generations doesn't mean it's factual for the games too, and same with the regular anime. Generations has already differed in a few details with the games. About why they're called dogs, I think Legendary Dogs is just a term made by fans. I use the Legendary Beasts term to refer to them. Personally Raikou looks like a saber-tooth tiger, Entei looks like a lion, and Suicune looks kind of like a leopard/cheetah?

idk about multiple personalities but some people think the girl crawling on the wall and also an episode 13 silhouette for Reborn's title screen at the time was a younger version of Lin, for which a sprite exists.

If their bodies still physically exist, maybe their souls will return to them. I imagine the actual process of them unfusing would involve defeating the PULSE Magnezone, which is involved in the events of how they were fused in the first place. But I'm not sure how that would work from a technical point of view, I just think it'll happen somehow if they're indeed on the relationship variable table, and because I'm not really sure where else ZEL could be at endgame and what they could be doing (and I just like the idea of them unfusing).

If Foamy was right about the three blurred-out names on the relationship variable picture being Eve, Lumi, and Taka, I think it'd be Zero saying goodbye. After they unfuse, maybe Eve and/or Lumi do something to him for being the reason they fused together (although neither seems like the type to do that), or maybe he just runs away, or betrays Team Meteor for Eve and Lumi. I think every character listed on the relationship variable table picture is safe (which IIRC is everyone except Ame, Lin, Solaris, Sirius, Corey, Kiki, and presumably Zero). I remember it being said we'd be able to do sidequests with those characters depending on the variables (and that we'd still get to do them even with low variables, we'd just have to work harder) and I imagine those will be really late game and/or postgame. So I don't think we'd be saying goodbye in any way, shape, or form to one of those.

I tried to crop and upload to printscreen so people wouldn't be able to see my laptop, but printscreen seems to not be working right now. The Legend of ZEL: Lin's Awakening.

I remember it being said that V8 is short but V9 will be big and hectic, which I can easily see given our destination.

I guess Never Ending Nightmare and All Out Pummeling are the Ghost and Fighting z-moves respectively. I always assumed there would be four trial captains to go along with four islands, but it's cool to see more. I wonder if we'll get to battle them, or we just do the trials and then face the kahuna of the island? It's been mentioned the kahuna is battled after clearing the island's trials, but it hasn't been mentioned if we'll get to battle the trial captains themselves. I hope we do. Maybe there's actually 2 trial captains for each island, so 8 trial captains like the gym leaders and 4 kahunas like the E4.
