Well, I'd rather say that the reason Zero retains so much control is because Lumi isn't confident enough to oppose him, and Eve sees helping Team Meteor as the only way to get hers and Lumi's bodies back. If those two were to decide that they don't want to deal with that crap any more, I doubt Zero could stop them. Lumi undoubtedly dislikes Team Meteor's actions, and Eve seems to care for nothing but Lumi and herself. I wouldn't say that Eve is good or evil, it looks more like she refuses to give a damn about anything that isn't related to her goal. She can't afford to care, not if she wants to save what's left of her family.

Quoting this for future you. Yeah, at first I was pretty bummed that my favourite pokemon isn't in the game yet, but Reborn really helps you appreciate pokemon that you haven't been using much before. It's really fun to see which ones you can find a use for that you'd not have thought about before. I never expected I'd keep a Noctowl on my team for ten gyms, but it happened. Have fun playing through the game, it's sure gonna keep you hooked c:

getting attached to villain characters is suffering Like I said, I can reasonably see how it might be possible that we will have to make a decision over life and death. it just fits in too well with the plot, and seeing how we have already been asked whether or not we would sacrifice a person twice within the past bits of the game (by Sirius and Blake, respectively), it's not illogical that sooner or later, the answer we give actually takes or saves a life. It didn't matter (now) for Heather that I told Blake I'd keep the ring, but if the game keeps going this route... welp. I just see it as less of a planned thing and more as something that'll happen unexpectedly. So the part of your post where you ruminated over killing off Meteor leaders got me thinking a bit, because while it would be a good thing tactically, I just don't see it being actually planned out, rather happening as a thing of opportunity. Heh, trust me, I don't like Sirius at all as things are right now c: I'd like that precious Poison girl back, yes?

Oh, not quite yet, no. Dunno how far you've come in the game so far - have you already beaten it to the end of E14? If not, then it'll still be a while until you reach the point where you can get Sneasel, but hey, the game is fun to play even without your favourite stares at Skarmory
-
Hehe, you came here just in time; Sneasel is gonna be made available in the game for the upcoming episode, so you can actually get your Weavile c: Welcome to the madhouse, we hope you enjoy your stay. While you're here, I want to advise you not to listen to anyone who tries to warn you about Team Meteor. People are trying to paint us as the bad guys, but really... You can join us for free, receive exclusive access to the New World, and make your deepest wishes come true! All you have to do is fight some trainers and do as you're told. It's a no-brainer*! You may also want to sacrifice your sanity. You don't need that here, (*in more ways than one)

You mean to say Cain's a Siren? Now THAT's a plot twist. I've honestly grown too attached to all the characters to want to see any of them dead at this point. They're all special in their own way. But I can see how some characters like Lin would be impossible to go down any other way. Just a gut feeling, but some characters really would rather die than surrender, and Lin strikes me as one of those. Sirius is at heart a coward. He's scared of Lin, remember how he panicked at Tanzan? He was more willing to pretend you are a Meteor, and thereby potentially saving your life (if Solaris trying to take you out is any indication of how the leadership deals with threats), than to admit that an enemy even got this far, let alone helped them.

I can see how we might be required to kill eventually, but I don't think we will be doing so multiple times or "just because it would be convenient". Reborn already has a character who fulfills that exact role: Saphira. She is implied to be the strongest among your allies, and she has shown several times already that she is willing to kill anyone who stands in her way. I don't think it'll be the player's purpose to turn into the resistance's new killing machine. The game has put too much focus on the tragedy of this conflict; on how both sides are suffering losses over the whole thing, and I believe that in a way, the player is special exactly because they're not one to solve problems by killing. I can imagine that at some point, we might have to (or accidentally do so), but overall, to me it feels like a role we don't fit in.

shivers On one hand I really don't want to have to kill anybody, not even Fern. On the other, it would add a completely new depth to the game if we, the player, were to kill someone, whether by accident or not. It's not implausible for Reborn. And when I think back to the fact that we basically did have the choice to tell Blake that we'd rather sacrifice Heather than to give him the ring... Please don't hurt my fragile little heart; I'm Neutral Good aligned for a reason ;_;

^What he is really trying to say is that we are always welcome in his shed =) Welcome to the madhouse. I'd say something about the sounds of welcoming fanfares, but I'm not responsible for the music here, and stealing other people's jobs is not very nice. And I got ninja'd anyway I'm just here to let you know that we at Team Meteor are always looking for fresh talents to help us build a New World™. For further information and the contract, please turn to our Administrators. That said, sanity is overrated, and you're welcome to throw what remains of yours away. Hope you'll enjoy your stay~
-
Welcome to the madhouse~ Want a Ghost/Fighting type, you say? See... As you might know, Team Meteor vows to create a better world. Now, I'm not implying that you could work for us and have your wish fulfilled in the New World, except that perhaps I am. Joining us has no known downsides*, so what are you waiting for? Get your Ghost/Fighting Mega Mismagius tod- well ok, probably not today. But eventually. Good luck with Shade, by the way. I hate his Rotom with a passion. Well, not only his, but, y'know. (*Trying to leave, on the other hand...)
-
^Well, neither are Cain and Aya, though it's definitely getting better. I was curious if they were all gonna be sorted in with their families. ...Then again, Cain and Aya did canonically live together until Cain ran away, whereas Amaria and Titania lived alone.
-
Is it just me, or is he looking a little bit lady-like? Something about his eyes and lips. Wanna touch dat hair, though. Is he gonna live with Cain and Aya, or Titania and Amaria? Or who lives with who now?
-
At least Aster did tell us we'd be seeing him around, so it appears he's willing to help us without any further persuasion. With Simon, I do think he'd be willing to tell us a thing or two if we manage to give him something related to Tara, but is it really already the time? I doubt it'll take long now, since we did finally obtain Dive, but idk, it just feels to me as if it's got no place in the next Episode. Kinda makes me wonder, though: Sirius says that "Turncoats won't be forgiven", so what do the Meteors do when somebody tries to leave their ranks? Eclipse had her soul exterminated, so wouldn't it be logical for them to want to, uh, silence people like Simon or Aster, one way or the other? It seems awfully impractical to have people with possible insider knowledge run around and helping out enemies. (Well, Aster, anyway. Simon didn't yet.)

Gotta agree with Gaunt, I don't think we're gonna be allowed to dive into Tanzan Lake quite yet. Not that I don't wanna, because Simon! </333, but it just doesn't sound like something we're supposed to do just yet. Or at least I don't see why we would be taking a detour to Tanzan Cove when we're trying to get from the Agate area to the City.

I can't describe how ridiculously confused I feel now. At first I was triumphant because I was like "HA, Steel will wreck this shit", then I started doubting if I remembered the type advantages correctly (I doubt my memory a lot) and went to look it up, then apparently misread the type table for the opposite and got weirded out. tl;dr regular Steel user second-guessed her knowledge and suffered an amazing moment of stupidity when checking things. Maybe I should just have listened to my brain the first time and I could have avoided spilling all these spaghetti. I don't even know WHY I doubted myself here ;_; That said, good to know that the Mist field will work out. I would have been willing to sacrifice 50% of Mamoswine's HP, but not having to do so is even better.
-
Will those moves terminate the field, though? I use the Mamoswine + Mist trick often enough, but will it always work? Haven't worked much with those moves before I started playing Reborn, so if the answer is obvious, apologies. I'm quite happy about that never-miss 2x damage Mirror Shot, since it somewhat makes up for the fact that Steel isn't effective against Ice.
-
At the cost of 50% of your (and your opponents') Pokemon's HP tho. ...Which, for the record, I think is really cool, because we actually get punished for destroying the field, and it makes sense, considering it's mirrors, and shattering mirrors is a mess. Still, personally I would rather sacrifice one of my Pokemon to break this thing, than to fight a whole battle on it, me thinks.
-
I didn't even notice that the Mudkip got axed D: Man I'm glad I already got it, because I regretted not choosing it as my starter SO much. >tfw still no Skarmory I must show patience. Really happy about Lapras though.

I like this. I like this a LOT. Oh shiiiiiiet. On the other hand, if Mamoswine gets an evasion boost thanks to Snow Cloak and then terminated the field with Earthquake, it might be worth it. The thing has so much HP... This field looks so darn interesting, really can't wait to try fighting on it. Honestly, I think this is my favourite of the new ones, it's darn creative <3 EDIT: And holy shit, so we can have Larvesta and Sneasel now? Dayum.
-
You could always try to use a darker shade of the base colour. That's usually an easy way to create a matching colour palette. And as for the green - personally I like it the way it is, so I'd just suggest colouring the blue part in the same colour or a darker shade. EDIT: Unrelated to that, I've been playing around with Archeops a bit. I like the idea of sun colours that's listed in the OP, but... eh, idk. I feel like it would be a waste to just leave those yellow feathers completely yellow, but I'm not competent enough to create a nice, smooth transition between colours, like it's seen on, for example, Reborn's shiny Steelix and Rapidash. (And wow does the dark post background make the wings look pixellated at the parts where there's black lines. Makes me want to just colour those yellow as well.)
-
The idea for the Klink line is neat, but maybe you could replace the gray areas (face, back) with a different colour (something to fit with the copper-like theme)? The shade of gray doesn't match the red tone all that well (imo), perhaps a more rusty colour would work out better?
-
Annnnd Alilatias officially put me in awe of the Murkwater field, but mostly because that break down made me realize how much fun I am probably gonna have with it, considering my love for using Steel types. I mean, I just so happen to be training up a whole bunch of them while waiting for the episode. Maybe they'll be even more useful than I thought.

chants Meteor Sims, Meteor Sims~ YES PLEASE That Fern actually looks great. And poor Julia, but I guess I can understand her, who wouldn't fall for Amaria? Titania even quite literally fell for her.

Ah, something else that comes to my mind for animal-centered books: the Farthing Wood series by Colin Dann. There's an animated series of it, too (grew up with it and love it! <3), but the books are great, I've read them over and over. It's seven books, starting with The Animals of Farthing Wood.
