Is she still trying to kill Amber?
Me and her are cool now, so that's a concern.
She will if Amber tries to visit her Animal Crossing island under charge of being dumb and mean, apparentlyFor a more serious answer, probably? While we were able to make up with Amber, Saki was abducted before that opportunity arrived for them, so her original personality would still have beef. And given that the Twitter appears to be using Saki's original design (remember that Valarie and Adam both sported different outfits and hair colors), it seems pretty reasonable to say that she'd have that personality the next time the two meet. Assuming, of course, that there's actually anything serious about that account and its not some extended April Fools' joke...

I mean, outside of the Legendaries and duradulon, all of those are already available to you before you get to her, and even then duradulon's only missing because it's entire Generation is. you'll probably be able to mirror her almost perfectly in terms of the species are concerned.

Are they going to reuse mons? I seem to recall Adam having a Probopass.
It's happened a few times already. Rotom being used twice is understandable (especially when of them one of them isn't even an appliance), but claydol (Ryland and the Puppet Master) doesn't have the same luxury. The most egregious is the fact that Amber's got a chandelure- another Gym Leader's ace! Every non-Legendary Steel Type is fair game for Saki, based off of that precedent.
-
Wait, the Twitter actually got updated? And here I thought it was just an April Fool's joke!
I mmean, explaining a Legendary is actually quite easy in Saki's case. She's an inventor, and Magearna and Genesect are both at least partially mechanical in nature. Between the two, the former seems more likely to me- the biological aspect in Genesect may be beyond what she's willing to put up with.

I'll second the idea of her running duradulon, though I'd guess that it'll take up her Mega slot. As different as she is from the rest of the family, she is still a Blakeory, who have served as the backbone for building both of Aevium's two largest population centers. A massive skyscraper is bound to be utilized by someone in the family, and if it's not Saki, then one of the others will likely wind up being battled at another time.
I don't really see her running aegislash personally, but that's also based off of her original personality and we have no idea what her new one is/ was (there's a non-zero chance that she'll have shaken it off like Adam did atop the pyramid by the time we fight her). It's almost certain that they're gonna use her fight to showcase some of the Crests in V13, with togedemaru being my highest pick in this regard (it seems like a silly pokemon for a high-levelled Gym Leader to use, which would be fitting for her out-there personality, and honestly doesn't require quite anywhere near as much work to make dangerous as some of the other Pikaclones). I also wouldn't put it past her to run the goofy-looking probopass (remember that Ryland had two Crested pokemon on his team in V12), but I'll admit that this is also a bit of wishful thinking on my part.
-
I mean, our third Badge is from a source that, for all League-based purposes, doesn't even exist. Add in the fact that the 2nd one was given to us after the Gym Leader died, we never actually fought Kreiss, and the Puppet Master probably isn't even on any official roster of any sort, and it becomes pretty clear that a large chunk of our collection really shouldn't count. But with Amanda being AWOL, her mechanical doppleganger kaput, and Jan being a bit busy attending to the fact that his half of town is still being reconstructed, I really don't think the Elites are really gonna care about their legitimacy by the end of the game. Any potentially bizarre circumstances behind the rest of the Badges are basically fair game. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Spoiler
Not gonna lie, I forgot all about the ninetales. His more important battle didn't have any pokemon in it, so I don't think one can be blamed for that blunder. Besides, we do have precedent for Theolias handing out Badges outside of Amanda's League, and Starlight makes more sense for them that the Bewitched Woods (which is what I was referring to earlier, for the record).

I might be wrong since it's been a while that I played through the game, but:
I feel like I remember Damien being mentioned as the Dark type leader. And since the Dark and Fairy badges look like they complement each other, the two leaders are likely somehow related, either as relatives or because both gyms are located at the same place/town. So, I thought that his sister Alexandra could be the Fairy leader. There's still that one cave near Sashila Village blocked off by one of the villagers. That could be where we will fight them.
But Alexandra also always seemed like she'd be part of the Elite 8, so I'm not really sure.
On the other hand, the only Fairy trainer I can think of is the player's mother. I know she's dead, but there's a sprite in the game's files of her as a ghost, so we might get to battle her.
SpoilerDamien's been noted to have been pretending to be a Dark Leader in order to keep the position from being filled after the events of Where Love Lies, though I'd admittedly forgotten what his reason for doing so was. In any case, we're fairly certain that we'll be facing him with his "official" Dragon GL role, likely with his latios as his ace (I mean, what does a Dark Leader even need a latios for in the first place?).
The sprite of Nancy's spirit is already used in the game as part of a sidequest, so it seems immensely unlikely that she'd fill in the Fairy GL role either.
The general consensus I've seen as the two Badges will be given out by Cosmo and Cosmia, the folks that were impersonating us and Nancy in the Magnolia Theatre when we first arrived in Grand Dream City. While we don't really know much about them yet (aside from that mandatory scene, the only other time one of the shows up is when Cosmia shows up out of nowhere and abducts Kristilline's Quizmaster right before he can reveal who Madame X is), they do match the missing Badges' color schemes, clearly work as a pair (albeit with a blatantly unhealthy looking relationship), and qualify as people we've already seen. Given that the Q&A revealed that there will be a Version that gives two Badges and a Field Effect that benefits both Fairy and Dark Types introduced shortly before they officially were, it seems pretty reasonable to assume that they'll fill in that slot. Of course, this is all just conjecture at this point...

There was a Q&A Thread. It got closed a little over a month after it opened, though I think that was a little later than initially planned. In any case, here's the archive~!

you know i hadn't thought about it since magnezone isn't really they own character, but i do still have the full art, you're right that we could do something with it...
I'd personally argue that Magnezone is the most important PULSE System so far, both as the prototype of the current system and the only modern one to be wholly benign in original design. Though I may be a little bit biased here, given that the aftermath of busting the poor thing was one of the precious few points in the game where I actually panicked (for non-mechanical reasons), so make of that what you will, I guess.

Well, Volcarona isn’t a physical attacker, so that’s probably fine
Uh, he means that Attack is his only decent stat on it, and since it's the one volcarona explicitly wants to be as low as possible to avoid being savaged by Foul Play, it's decidedly not okay at all. It's quite the unfortunate situation, indeed...
-
...I forgot that said sylveon had perfect stats. I've been using the fact that Baby pokemon are guaranteed to have 3 31s to chain breed decent stats onto my current spiritomb project. The chingling in Sheridan have been particularly helpful in this case.

But Arceus is glitching since post-game development started...

Old favorites from last year will return, such as the ever-coveted Smelliest Auth Award ... but will the title change hands? hm.... Joining them will be a fresh shipment of MotY categories. Look forward to new ones such as last year's direly-missed Most Likely To Win Third Place Award, or such new gems as the Hippest Himbo Award!
- Categories will be officially announced on 12/21 and voting begins on 12/27.
*Knowing that you're now active enough to potentially earn an Award...
*Fills you with CONCERN FOR YOUR WELL BEING."
In all seriousness, I did enjoy last year's Revel, so I'm looking forward to this one. Hopefully IRL shenanigans won't bar me from attending~!

Uuuh, this certainly a tough question to narrow down answers for. I'm just gonna list three 'mons in no particular order for each Gen., counting Megas as the base pokemon's Generation (if I vastly prefer it to the base stage) and Regional variants as "new" pokemon in their Gen. (so Alolan Exeggutor would be counted as Gen. 7). I'm also not counting Legendaries, 'cause they'll easily eat up to a third of the list on their own, and nobody's here to see me be basic. Without further ado, let's get on to the list~
Kanto: Ivysaur, Mega Pinsir, Alakazam
Johto: Crobat, Espeon, Houndoom (No wonder most of my Crystal team were Gen. 1 'mons...
)
Hoenn: Swampert, Aggron, Cradily
Sinnoh: Magmortar, Drapion, Probopass
Unova: Cinccino, Gigalith, Eelektross
Kalos: Delphox, Slurpuff, Malamar
Alola: A. Muk, Dhelmise, Araquanid
Galar: Dracovish, Cursola, Orbeetle
I, uh, feel like I'm a bit all over the place here. Whoops?

...Black cherry cloudbirb?
Odd flex, but okay. Not often you see someone go all the way with the menu icons, either.
Some slight criticism: The outlines on the gray parts of the body are a bit too harsh. A slightly lighter shade should help a bit in that regard, though.

we are defining the fuck out of trainers up in here
(updated 11/1)
Hold up, I thought it was supposed to be the poliwrath that could punch us out in one blow, not Parasol Lady Jennifer! And what about the Youngsters and Arcade Stars? Why are they getting six-packs and muscles on their muscles?!
...Wait, we're talking about a different 'define' here, aren't we? Whoops.

"Bruh, Only two AZ's ain't enough! We need M O A R ! ! !"
-Signed, someone who has done next to nothing to prove themselves worthy of such a position
On a more serious note, congratulations to the new big cheeses! I'm not personally familiar with Azzie's endeavors on Discord, but I know that Starry has long held a particular grasp on helping other get ahold of pokemon in Reborn, be it through answering On The Hunt threads or by trading them the necessary pokes directly. She's definitely one of the most deserving folks of an official title out of all of us that didn't have one last week, so I'd say this promotion is probably a step up for the forum as a whole~

Lesson learned: never stand between Dimitri and his food.
And now, for a stream of thought!
"Wait, is that Kido?"
"...Could be a coincidence. It's not like earphone-print hoodies are the most spectacular of fashion choices."
"Oh, hello Konoha. Nice to see that your weird face circles are as prominent as ever."
So, uh, I hadn't expected to encounter another Kagepro fan over on this side. Though I'm not sure how reasonable an assumption that was to make in retrospect... -
Our very own Amethyst made a tutorial video series a few years back, so maybe that'll help you out? Here's the first vid (along with the whole playlist, of course). Happy spriting!

...Come to think of it, the player is (usually) a lawful criminal in this game- we are guilty of an awful lot of pokenapping, are we not?
Though I doubt that Adam and Valerie are quite so guilty...

Well, insects do outnumber mammals about 312 to one, so it isn't exactly difficult for a few hundred uninvited guests to sneak into the ball...

Hype is dead xd
Well, ain't that just a sad way to look at things?
It seems like both of the OG Legendary Trios are almost done now! Granted, that update was done a few days ago, but that's just a few more days for further progress to have occurred behind the scenes, no?

Hate to break it to ya, but if you haven't encountered the heatmor yet, then you haven't explored the entire place.
As far as getting to it goes, the second floor has a hole you can drop through that's only accessible while the mountain is in its Active Mood (so, the lava-filled map). It's definitely a frustrating dungeon to go through, so be sure to grab the Zygarde Cell on heatmor's platform before leaving- you don't want to have to try and find the place again later...

Hmm, that's an interesting point. If I remember correctly, there are canonically 5 Zygarde Cores (at least as far as Alola's concerned), which would initially seem at odds with Aevium's four Subregions… until you remember that Terrial is further split into two drastically different landmasses. I figure that there'd be one Core per landmass, so my guesses are...
Floria: Route 4's fancy new Wild Area (a place that big and unspoiled by man's bound to attract an ecosystem-defense system, after all)
Terrajuma: Part of the jungle we don't currently have access to (somewhere down the river beneath the Lover's Bridge, perhaps?
); Valor Mountain's also an option, but that place is packed to the brim with events already...
East Terrial: Somewhere in Route 9, either beyond the two NPCs that have been in that absurdly long conversation (seriously, it's been almost a week in game, minimum...), or in the cave system.
West Terrial: the quicksand-filled cave (this is the one we already have, BTW)
Neverwinter: ...We've never been to any part of this place (assuming Blacksteeple isn't in its waters, of course), so I naturally can't guess for this one
Generally speaking, it seems unlikely that Zygarde would want to put it's most important parts near Garufan territory given their tendency to... mistreat the laws of nature in dramatic ways, but it also wouldn't want to be too far away as to keep it from springing to action should they pull anything dramatic enough. Of course, I'm not a partially-connected deific hivemind spread across several hundred miles of land, so my thought process might be a bit off here.
