I would understand if there was at least a perceived insult to Team Xen, or just jerkness (as Geara did to everyone) but I don't get why he deserved manipulation through his whole adulthood from before knowing anything about Team Xen. Why was he so important to them?

Wait, where was it confirmed as part of the main story?

I was going through Rejuvenation's themes a bit, bc things be like that sometimes, and realized there's still a thing that bugs me. I know there are a lot of mysteries in this game, things yet to be revealed, but in 14 episodes or game plus a small backstory episode I still can't fathom why Keta attracts so much suffering and hate from the bad guys in this story. First when going through Sheridan we know about his dealings with Team Xen and their Shadow pokemon factory, which I get why do they need the place. But then Rift Volcanion happen and we learn Nastasia Hates Keta so much he's determined to commit genocide in a very painful way to a lot of innocent people just because she hates Keta and that he can't do anything but trade the life of Aelita for allowing it to happen. Then we get to Blacksteeple and we get the same justification for why Neved wants to torture Aelita. Not because she was Vivian in reincarnation, but because she was Keta's daughter. He hates him so much for... Reasons. And then we get to WLL, and learn the dark secrets of Kenneth's backstory, who is that... He went on and helped some people, he married Taelia and made Sheridan a place to live, all while the time travelers (specially Freya) made their best efforts to make his life a trauma conga line. The burning of the place his daughter was supposed to ve visiting, the fire on Gearen that was aimed at his friends, Tesla and Venam's parents, all the things that went down with Taelia's fate... I'll admit I didn't play the "best" ending of WLL but still can't find the reason why every bad guy seems to want to make their personal goal to make Keta's life a living hell. Not directed at Taelia (which I would have understood because Vivian) but going even over her death just to spite the guy. And for what I know he didn't do anything to anger them so much. He wasn't a famous hero who antagonize the bad guys, he didn't get between their plans (maybe he did and we are still to learn about it?) or didn't even betray them. He is not even in an important position, like Jenner or Tesla. So, is there something I am not getting? I am getting it wrong in some way? Is this supposed to be still an enigma understood later in the game? (even though we already got Keta's dedicated backstory and it really doesn't explain the underlying problem). This issue is still one of the biggest things that bug me from Rejuvenation's plot and if someone could shed a light on it I would be grateful.

Yes, my bad xD But the general point stays the same

The map with the Zone Zero is the same with Sashila, and from there you should have been able to fly directly to Zone Zero

I think to continue the plot in zone zero you should be able to fly to the point you reached first with the team and from there, go on foot until you find the others.

Ah, then you're locked out of GDC by plot, it will solve itself in time, don't worry because you can't do anything currently to undo it ingame.

If you reached the point in the help center quest Missing Children that you got send out of GDC you should already be able to Fly (with the HM or the Golden Wings) back to GDC, or, in the worst case, use the train from West Gearon. Or, in the next worst case (?) Go up to Sashila with the yatch (from the port in Kristiline, Teila Resort, etc) and either go through Alamissa Urben (I'm, not sure you can cross to Zone Zero) or go to GDC by talking with Damien and Mega Latios. Edit: In the case I'm wrong about Fly, the Yatch route and the train I think are both accessible from the point you finish the first arc in Sashila at least.

From what I know, it's basically a comet punch with 4 fixated punches, higher damage, and secondary effects. Suddenly competent would be an understatement.

You're too poor, not because the money you have, but because no wealthy man would degrade himself to earning his riches by pokémon battling. I you were a wealthy man, 9,999,999 would be pocket money (?)

I have never seriously used Cherrim but I think Ledian gets a massive boost. Not only by multiplying by 4 all punch damage, but by also giving it 4 times the chance of secondary effects of each punch: 40% (like 10% for each hit) of the secondary effects with the elemental punch, 80% (20% for hit) of confusing with Dizzy, 4x boost to the Atk. with Power-up and my favorite, 4 heals with Drain punch.

I do think Lin's plot may have to do with her actually being infant Arceus, as I see her actions as the ones of an infant god playing for fun. That way it could make Shade, already a ghost trainer, a Giratina or its agent, giving him a reason for only being a shadow as his true form would be banished from this dimension. But I also think that Giratina, being a Dragon-type, would fit also into Lin's dragon speciality in the early Reborn league. If Lin's goal is just to make "a new world, devoid of emotion" I admit I'll be a bit let down and have her give a call to Cyrus from Platinum. For the Ubers, if we're talking about actual lore-wise gods, I also thought it would be a prety good way of adapting the lore to have them be bosses on their own right (like the one-mon-hopeless-battle Reborn has already done a few times) and to explain their capture by the MC as them allowing the trainer to use a proxy of them (hence why battle-wise they're normal pokémon) like a Cleric or a Paladin would summon their god's strenght but not own the actual deity.

He should be either in the arena Keta did challenge us, or far deep into the gym if it's your first time battling him!

Not anymore, looks like Shadow pokemon are less prominent now

Maybe it was one of that instances of multiple Officer Jenny twins?

It depends on how are your achievments going, you should take one and get on with it specifically. I think the egg-hatching one is pretty easy. Using items in battle is another one, and stuff like that. But, if you got those already then it depends...

Yeah, as one of the main developers she, of al people, should know how things are going. About Neverwinter, yeah, I hope it's not far from now. I know it's probable the plot in v13 is about the Dreamyard west of Darchlight, we can still dream (?)

I also wonder if the bit about the Puppet Master is going to be tied to the main plot (i.e. against Team Xen/Bladestar, regarding the general well-being of GBC's citizens, what we could call Melia's plot) or some kind of, say, detour, like it was with Sashila at first, or with the first Time Travel, or dealing with Isiah's issues. Not that it would be less important, but it's just my curiosity. And, yes, pun totally intended.

I'd say, between Griselda's era and Past Aevium we still have whatever happened to the people from Aevium, remember how every actual inhabitant comes from the Miera region.

It's not actually a hidden Library but the Zygara castle (King Ieisel's), and the way is solving all the puzzles inside the labyrinth before the time expires. Unless you're talking about some of the hidden passageways inside said castle, one of which opens by interacting with a bookcase differently colored than the others, while the other (Larvesta's actual room) is hidden behind a wall that you can break.

Anjou wasn't kept in prison. She tried, with Nymiera and Hazuki, to stop Vitus/Indriad from destroying the world (what we know as Storm-9), failed, an was captured by Indriad in his manor.

Wait, are you not going to include secret character A.N.A? I like 4, Ariana's hairstyles the most, while I think of Aevis (the 1) as the generic male avatar, so... Funnily enough, I just thought of how the 6th one (Aero) just looks a little like Ryland

That Crescent appeared a time ago, back when we first entered the Toy Box with Aelita. It could be that her continued presence in that map is just a remnant of how Nightmare City didn't change with the plot (gameplay and story segregation, or how npcs from earlier places still reference those events as having just happened) or that she's actually the nightmare of another character, like Melia or the PC (she wouldn't be the first npc resurrected/respawn by Nightmares). Or it could be actually plot-related. But I'm going with the other options, I think.
