  1. Just beat Risa in Axis High and she commented on her win rate. She seems to think that she won our previous battle even though she didn't, is this something that anyone else experienced? It's bugging me even though I know it doesn't matter.

    RelearnMovesAnywhere is the one that activates the relearn on party, so it won't work without it obviously....

     

     

    I think what they meant is that while using mods the vanilla mechanic of allowing you to relearn a move for a pokemon on the go (after giving the relearner 3 heart scales for that single pokemon) does not work, so you would have to use the relearn anywhere mod which they might not want. I tested it and am pretty sure that the party options master mod causes this.

    First of all, it is explained that they aren't alternate versions of Xara and Jean, but android duplicates made by someone from an alternate dimension/timeline who based them off of the Xara and Jean of their world. I will agree that their existence does complicate the story a lot, with what their able to do, and what they have been doing. But it seems that their plan is to manipulate events to cause the destruction of this world, for whatever reason. 

    My problem with those 2 characters is that they seem intended to play the role of a manipulative super powerful super knowledgeable villains, but we kinda already have that in Madame X. And sometimes the stuff that they do feel like a convenient way for the plot to progress instead of having an internal reasoning that makes sense and as a result complicates things in a way that no other plotline does imo. For example, it's suggested that Clear was the one who manipulated Nim and turned her into Lorna not Crescent. But why? They already can turn people into stone with the machine without Nim's help, or perhaps they are readying her to be the new Storm-9? But then why pose as Crescent? Not only does Nim not have any type of relationship to Crescent beforehand, Clear, either before or after, neutralized her so they didn't have much to gain by implicating her. She could've impersonated anyone else or even just wore a mask if she just wants to obfuscate the situation and it wouldn't play out that differently. This is one of those scenarios that I mentioned I felt was retconned at some point. Every other major plotline whether it's Team Xen, Garufa, Vitus, are really fun to explore for me in a way that this one just isn't because it kinda exist on it's own external to everything else except for when they are needed to manipulate some event in a certain way to create conflict.

    Ok, so I have a few of theories about how the world has been reset before.
    First, the Eclysia Pyramid. Because of some explaining from Kieran, we know that this is an ark, a vehicle used for a purpose of preserving and protecting a group of people.  My theory is that it came from the world where Garufa Inc. was created. As it was implied in flashbacks and in a journal entry in the old building in the 3rd Layer, this world was ending. To save themselves, they built the pyramid, which they most likely used in conjunction with Amethyst Grotto to escape their demise by resetting the world, and using the ark, they kept themselves safe from the reset.

     

    In addition to this, I want to talk about Adrest. There are two different regarding this character. 1. He is one of the parts that made up the initial deity, who was found by Nymiera and was sealed inside the Amethyst Grotto, waiting to be reawakened when he is needed. 2. He is the son of Variya, the blonde woman seen in flashbacks, and is also seen alongside her in said flashbacks. So this is where it connects to the previous theory. What if, when the world was reset, the one who was sent to Amethyst Grotto to reset it was the human Adrest, who the had the soul/deity Adrest inhabit his body because he was the one who reset it. And then, when the world starts anew, this human Adrest is also the one we see protecting Nymiera in the past.

     

    I also had a theory about the Nymiera in Zeight. My idea is that she was created in the 3rd Layer world, and was most probably based of off legends of Nymiera that were passed down in that world. And that this AI-Nymiera can interact with the future iterations of human Nymiera when the world is reset.

    So what you're saying is that the in the previous world where the Garufa civilization was founded, all the legends of the creation of the world is the same as the world we inhabit in and therefore Nymiera was also a mythical figure and was also one of the first humans? So they were way ahead of the current world before being reset, but then why is their stuff still here? I guess human Adrest found soul Adrest when he was resetting the world in the grotto? And how is Variya still able to interact with MC (turning them into the interceptor) after the world was reset and is somehow powerful enough to edit the world so now "we" are them instead of Aevia/Avis/Alain/etc?

     

    Another really confusing character is Ana, at a first glance, she is clearly related to the group of friends whose souls became the MC. But the android Ana that we meet seems to have memories from the previous world where pokemon are extinct. If the world was reset and I mean literally reset, would that imply that events happened in the same way in both iterations? The meteor hitting the god deity and splitting in 3, the creation of the 4 siblings using the Archetype, the group of friends getting attacked by Nihilego  (why did this happen btw did the storm just create them out of nowhere), how many of these events happened in the previous world if it happened at all? It's all very confusing and though I do believe the devs had an outline or an idea of the big picture of the story from the start, I think it's pretty clear sometimes stories take a life of their own and it's why it becomes so convoluted at times, especially after so many rewrites. For example, Kanon's story feels a lot like it got retconned at some point.

     

    Imho as of right now at least the explanation for the existence of Clear and Kieran is a somewhat unsatisfying. They claim to be from another dimension which I assume isn't the same as claiming that they are from the previous world. If this is true then that creates another layer to the fabric of reality of the world. They seem to almost be omniscient and is working towards destroying everything, why don't they just kill all of us at the start of the game? They clearly knew of our importance to the grand scheme at least from way back during the events in Terajuma (and they have a gun). Why are they doing this? Out of all the characters that we know why did it have to be Jean and Xara that turned into these people? The Jean and Xara of our dimension doesn't seem to share the same traits (except for intelligence maybe). So far at least, I feel like they complicate the story too much, they know too much, and they feel like an easy source of conflict whenever the story needs one instead of being natural manipulative antagonists. And they exist on top of another extremely powerful antagonist in the form of Madame X (who also know a lot) and Madame X has the luxury of being built up much early on in the game.

     

  5. By the way does anyone know what happens when you play through the school of nightmares if you use the code to play as Ana's sprite in the beginning? It seems that the scene in the Interceptor's nightmare realm changes a bit based on the sprite you chose, so it would be interesting to see what happens if you play as Ana seeing as she normally doesn't appear in the scene.

  6. I am 100% certain that Madame X is another version of Erin in the same way that Melia is another version of Maria. For the devs to use the exact same quote for two characters and highlight it? There's no other reason.

    Make sure your game is updated to the latest patch first, as that fixes some day/night cycle issues.

    -Fixed the issue where the player's Day/Night cycle would become stagnant. (To fix this issue on affected files, enter and exit the Residential Apartments in GDC.)

    as finishing The Lighthouse helper quest in Kristiline Town.

    You can get some other stardust sources along your journey, you can check the General Items tab, though it's not up to date with V13, otherwise you can take a longer look at either the chapters/locations section.

    Ah dang I have patched it to the latest version but unfortunately no access to the apartments right now because of story reasons. Unfortunately as far as I know there was only one source of stardust in the overworld at this stage of the game but that location was changed in v13 so now it no longer contains stardust.

    Yeah I ran into the castform bug myself. One of the mods must overwrite a function that contains those, I'm not sure which but the main suspects would be FabulousTransformation, TypeBattleIcons and ShowStatBoosts since they have the most battle-related functions. one of these is also the culprit behind the safari zone crash (I think that one might be ShowStatBoosts) but I'm not really sure how to fix these even if I pinpoint them, so I think if using something affected by the bug, you might have to just drop these components for now.

    I can confirm that the problem is FabulousTransformation and the Safari bug is caused by the other two

  9. So how does it work? I thought it would set up weather immediately upon switch in but I taught Rain Dance to my Castform but it doesn't automatically set up rain 

    edit : solved it seems to be because I use the script from a modpack

  10. I started rejuv from scratch again and am now facing Souta and I'm a bit confused about his team's speed. We both have Tailwind up, my Jolteon has full EV and Timid and yet it can't outspeed his Gliscor or his Dragonite. I tried checking the field notes but can't find anything that could explain this. I'm on V12.1 Intense Mode. Is there something I'm missing?
