uhhh I remember its Sp. Atk using Sp. Def (which makes sense given it's its best stat) but looks like either the description or the actual item got changed. Either way, according to the wiki, Defense stat boosts do not modify Special Attack, while Special Attack boosts still apply.

I would compare Taka with someone involved in some sort of cult: is the cult doing bad things? Yes. Is the person whose entire family is in the cult doing, by proxy, those bad things? Yes. But, to what point can you blame them if that cult is the only thing he knows? It's like individually blaming each grunt who wouldn't share the same degree of control that Sirius and Solaris had over Team Meteor's decisions.

For me the difference is that I do feel sorry for Fern, like one can see how all he does is because some twisted inferiority complex. He started the game like a school jerk and just went down from there. He probably joined Meteor because he already thought he was the bad guy. Like in the final act, when fighting for the Fate of the universe and the likes, Fern will probably be just a speck of dust to sweep before facing the actual challenges. And he knows it.

A Gauntlet with PULSE Camerupt, PULSE Hypno, PULSE Mime, PULSE Clawitzer and PULSE Arceus in a row, yeah

The Garufan Seal in Amberette was in Kanon's room, and he's since been revealed to be a living spell of probable garufan origin. Aelita and Erin were stared at, iirc, by Melia and MC after coming back from the back future, and Alexandra's Crystal was in her family's possession since at least Nymiera. Most likely the travel between Hiyoshi (Nymiera's house) and Sashila (Alexandra's house) actually happens between two instances of the same Crystal lol. The "proof" we actually get to the past is how we can affect the future with the tree sapling in Route 2, cutting it an producing another version of it.

Maybe that it's not "bad future" so much as Alternate Universe. But I think it was just not followed upon

Yeah I also remember it being effective regardless of HP

I guess Rejuv is more Shonen-ish in that regard, like it's pretty easy to differentiate between good and bad characters, even with, like, Puppet Master in V13 or Crescent its clear. In the other hand, Reborn is more... Different. You got Shade, Taka, Amaría (who tries to outright drown the MC), ZEL... They're not meant to be put in any character binary. And then there's Fern, lol

The field doesn't change but the terrain is generated. You can check it by pressing S (by default) and then selecting one of the battles, you get to see the field/terrain in effect

Ah yeah I missed it. I never had it locked before. Maybe you have to try and find Spector first so he can go an check in they gym

Yo go through the mirror and you have to go back, that's when you're teleported to her house

I think a number of plot points changed in early game between E18 and E19, mostly polishing things. But yeah I think it would be worth the wait

You'll need a Rift Fragment only when the game asks you for a Rift fragment, yeah, the problem is "how much Red Essence?"

I had the same problem, put 15k, then had another 15k prepared, put them again without result, got a little more Red Essence, let it stay until night, tried it, and with just 1k, instant beldum. I think it may be bugged lol

The older Narcissa Scene I think was badge locked, but it was in a previous version, so....

It didn't ask me to throw Rift matter Fragments (the correct item lol) at all. I've got both Rift Matter and Red essence, but it only asks for more Red Essence. Edit: I got the Den working, and don't even know why: I had thrown like 15k essence before, then I got to the situacion in the last post, I let it rest for a while, then came back tonight, threw like 1k Red Essence and it was right there. Maybe there's a wait time or something.

Is it badge locked or something? I throw essence, "it's got an incredible ammount of energy in it", throw more, "it's got a great deal amount of energy in it", throw like 3k more, "it's got a small bit of energy in it" like it shouldn't be available now (I just defeated Florin and used Teleport, which got me back into WG area, which I suppose is some kind of bug)

I don't remember when did she say she hated her mother, but it wouldn't stop her from thinking Anathea sacrificed herself. And maybe Madame X is an Erin/Marianette from an Alternative Timeline, so her relationship with her parents may be different. Her dialogue doesn't seem to imply she knows personally the main characters.

There is in Reborn but in Rejuv I don't think so

From what I know Eden was Clear and Kieran's boss, who was destroyed by Crescent. I don't thint the MC has any relationship with them. Regarding Anthea, we've seen her die twice: one in the Zorrialyn house and one in the Manor. And in both times we've seen a relationship between Maria and Marianette: in the prologue, and in Kugearen-the manor in the sewers. It seems like Indriad was trying to harvest the Archetype from Maria (after banishing her three siblings) and changing to an Alternative Universe/World Reset when failing.

I get this same bug in all the routes that have pokemon on the overworld (like Sheridan Wetlands or Zorrialyn dessert) so it may have something to do with that (as Route 2 has Whimsicott overworld).

But both places have a connection with this timeline: we found Chrisolia Manor in the past, in Kugearen, inhabited by the Theolias (in the "present", as Chrisolia Hotel, by the way) and the house from the prologue/dead scene with Crescent, we find it in Zorrialyn's coast, also decrepit and old, also with the Theolias' portrait. The mansion from the sewers (Marianette's) and the one from the past (Maria's) have different insides, but it could be easily explained as gameplay or something like that.

Yeah I am having similar problems with Erick lol (except Wide Guard doesn't help anymore and Reflect only does so much), I'm not sure if I'm lacking anything or it's just the game's difficulty spike.

So, they are both Interceptors, they're both the Interceptor, it's the same for me hahah the result is that both of them share the condition of being "out of fate" and really shouldn't die again or they die for good.

Yeah, Crescent is an Interceptor, too, just the same as the Main Character. And exactly as the main character, she seems to have run out of lives, so next death will probably be the last one. And both Nancy, the black boxes and all the Ligosomnia Engine things from v13's new content were made by Xara and Jean, Risa's friends and the original Mysterious' duo before Clear and Kieran appeared and killed and replaced them.
