Maybe madame x lost her powers and the reason she wants Melia's powers is so she can keep them safe.
Team Xen's goal is to summon Storm-9 again by using Melia's powers, so Madame X as their leader should want that too. Indriad tried to summon it by sacrificing Maria, or at least it sounded like sacrificing her would cause it to happen, but Vivian's spell prevented the worst. I'm wondering if he succeeded the summon by actually sacrificing her and we're already too late to save her, or if he used another method. But since Anathea mentioned in Hiyoshi city that she feels Maria's presence, and by then Vivian was already dead and Storm-9 was already bound to happen, Maria is probably still alive.
Kinda weird is that they theoretically could've gone for Erin as well, since she's been out of the Unown dimension for a pretty long time. Maybe they had no way to enter the dimension, and no idea she was out again. Or her powers are too weak compared to Melia. That might also be the reason as for why Indriad sacrificed Anathea in the first place, because she also had the Archtype's powers, but hers were too weak and the ritual failed, so he tried to sacrifice Maria next.
13 minutes ago, TheVentusX said:Maybe when Maria/Marianette was "sacrificed" by Indriad in the prologue, Maria/Marianette lost her powers which were somehow transferred to a newborn Melia (and maybe her three siblings too). That would explain the connection between Melia and Maria. Maria/Marianette somehow survived and swore revenge against Indriad, stole Yvetal from him, trained to wield a sword and tries to use Melia, who wields her powers, as a weapon for her revenge.
Regarding my combined timeline theory there is another similar scenario: Prologue-Maria/Marianette survived in exchange for her powers and Melia is the reincarnation of the "underground villa"-Maria/Marianette and helds her power. The rest is same as my theory above.
If she wanted revenge, she wouldn't lead Team Xen and plan to do the same thing as he did, and not regretfully say "I lost, Father" after losing on Blacksteeple. She's probably just acting as his pawn.

Clearly Madam X knows more about Melia and her powers than Melia knows herself. So it's not unlikely that Madam X could somehow sense that Melanie is the same person.
Yep she definitely knows, though what bothers me is that Madame X clearly doesn't have those powers, since she tries to get her hands on Melia's powers, so how would she even sense them? So the sensing/feeling thing might not make much sense, unless she still has small fragments of the power left. Then it would still be possible for Madame X to be Maria, cause this has been bothering me a lot, since Maria shouldn't know about Melanie, but Melia does. I only included Melia because of this, my original thought was actually just Maria to be Madame X, so the sensing part due to a little power left might explain it.
Also, how did Madame X even find out about Melia having those powers from when she was still a baby? (Baby because Jenner adopted her as a toddler, since she says she named Hapi when she could barely speak)
Her powers only awakened much later in the bad future, so Madame X might know about her powers since it's herself, but on the other hand, it might be something else we're still missing, and Madame X being after her own past self's powers just seems contradictory. Because why didn't she just take Maria's powers when they met in the prologue if that's all she needs? I think it's because that might cause a time paradox, but not with Melia since they're not the same.So while Melia still might be possible, I kinda tend more to Madame X being Maria/Marianette. Especially because of the Father/Indriad stuff, Melia wouldn't say that, but Maria would.

You just need to get rid of the Crustle blocking the cave when you get to the bottom to get Salandit. Nothing else is needed.
When I tried last time I couldn't get there without loosing the Rage powder over that shaky rock, is there another way?

If you got a Stunfisk I think you could trade your way to a Vulpix with Heat Wave? I'm not sure, though.
I forget if Salazzle learns Heat Wave on it's own, or is it just Flamethrower?
Other than that I can't recall other Fire types available at that point.
both only learn it from the move tutor and/or breeding
also I think you need Rock Climb to get Salandit, so it's not available that early.
But you could catch Bronzong on Route 3 with Heatproof and Rain Dance, or a Mienfoo for Wide Guard, so those are actually possible either way

Is it possible that madame X is maria but without the powers
1 hour ago, TheVentusX said:Would be possible, if losing her powers means her hair turned from blonde/gold to black (regarding the pyramid event), but so far it seems like Melia is the reincarnation of Maria so it kinda doesn´t add up. On the other hand it would explain why Nastasia joined Team Xen, because Maria was/is her friend and she even went to rescue her in Hiyoshi City. And we also don´t know what really happend with Maria after the end of the underground villa event. Plus some events in the past and clues found in the present implie that there could be kinda two timelines, which maybe became one. For example when we first time travelled to Kugearen City, we witnessed the whole "Indriad goes mad again"-event happening in the villa that we know from the "third badge"-event and that would later become the Chrysola Hotel, but in the prolouge these events happened in a different house and we can even find this house in the desert. If my "two timelines became one"-theory is correct, there exists a possibility that Madame X could be Maria/Marianette from the other timeline.
That's what I also thought, Madame X being Maria/Marianette/Melia, assuming those three are somehow connected due to parallel timelines, maybe even the same person through reincarnation. Since Madame X tries to hide her face from everyone at the pyramid when her mask gets broken, and because Cosmia stops the quiz guy from telling us her name, we can probably already deduce her real identity.
Now, in the apocalyptic future at the end, Madame X mentions her mother sacrificed herself to save her, but talks really coldly about her, calling her weak. The only mothers that died in the story so far were Nancy and Anathea (excluding Taelia, since Nora's dead and Aelita wasn't even alive to be protected). Seeing how the MC can have different looks or genders, it doesn't make sense for them to be her, so the only one left would be Maria/Marianette.Also, Indriad seems to have a connection to Yveltal, since his cult outfit's design is based on Yveltal (as we could see in Zumi's artwork), and the fact that the man and woman from Nymiera's story definitely are her and Indriad: We know that Nymiera has a Xerneas statue in her castle on Blacksteeple, even in her home in Hiyoshi city, so it's likely she has Xerneas, consequently Indriad having Yveltal makes sense. But we know that currently, Madame X has Yveltal, and mentions a 'Father' when defeated, which likely refers to Indriad. Also the secret Xen lab's diary, in which Yveltal is mentioned, mentions that "He" knows and sees through Yveltal, probably also referring to Indriad. If this all fits, then Lord Xenadin would actually be Indriad too (seeing how there's Team Xen banners everywhere in the underground lab in Wispy tower, which was built secretly by Indriad/Sirius and sealed off since the fire and only recently opened by Geara to get Giratina, so Team Xen couldn't have put those up as they arrived there only moments before the MC).
What's weird though is that in the bad future, Madame X seemed clearly suprised by this world, but knew about Melanie being Melia's parallel self even before meeting her, like she could "feel a connection to her", or was already there once. Since the only ones beside Madame X who remember this world are the MC and Melia, this could imply that she knew beforehand because she remembered being there as Melia. Also, in this future, the one who has Yveltal is Melanie, the one who is actually Melia, yet another connection between them.
Another point would be, in the prologue, why was Madame X in Maria's house in the first place, if not because of a connection to Maria and Indriad? Why is she pitying Maria when she asks when will they stop to put her through all this, when she usually is so cold to everyone else, calling everyone weak so it's their own fault if they can't protect themselves and suffer?

Eruption/Heat Wave works great too.
Yeah you're right, that strategy is pretty neat as well.
But is it possible to catch a mon that learns those moves when you're stuck at the circus? Also not sure if Wide Guard would be obtainable at that point, and if you skipped the gang quest Rain dance isn't available, either.
From those, Trick Room might be the only consistently available strat for everyone. -
best strats against her would be
- Rain Dance
- Wide Guard
- Trick Room -

Cool, let me know if you have any other ideas on what you would like to see on a prehistoric team
1 hour ago, Siv said:Mamoswine is a viable addition.
Ancient power evos are a good idea. Yanmega also seems to be based on a prehistoric dragonfly so it fits pretty well too.

One strategy is to simply let it use Draco Meteor to the point where it simply can get knocked out by any ice move.
Since Garchomp's SpDef is higher than the SpAtt, the SpDef value is used for damage calculation. This means that the SpAtt drops are completely inconsequential, it won't take more damage.
But as you said, forcing Quagsire/Pallossand to switch is the best way to deal with them.

You're absolutely right.
What pokemon did you use on your run?
Don't remember all anymore, but my starter was Infernape (since it's based on an ancient story), Sigilyph and Golurk (from ruins), Crustle (this one's a little farfetched, but the idea was that the sediment layers from its shell look like the sediments from different eras) and Carracosta as fossil mon, forgot the sixth one. I remember pondering to choose Venusaur since it's partly based on a dinosaur or Tangrowth since it's an Ancient Power evo. And I might've had Xatu for a while before I replaced it with Sigilyph.

Leave the mountain from the main entrance, then go in from Crawli's gym again.

Well, not all pokemon which learn that move have a prehistoric look. Take Togekiss for example. So if you want the theme to make sense you might wanna make some exceptions as to which pokemon are okay.
I once did this exact theme run when playing Pokemon Gaia and allowed everything that looked like from ancient times. So dinosaurs/dragons as well as pokemon from ruins, like Sygilyph.

Well shit, I had no idea of this. So I blew that one.
Seriously?! WHY?!
In the original games, Own tempo is not a normal or hidden ability, but event exclusive iirc. It's basically the same in Rejuv, which is why you can't get it the normal way.

Looks like Team Xen killed her used her designs to make the Xen uniforms. If this is the first Team Xen when Lord Xenadin was alive or the new one lead by Madame X, why would they kill her for just some clothes? It also begs the question, which Team Xen was it? It can't the first one, because they all died back in the Mierra region, it can be the new one, but how old was Madame X when the power plant back in the Mierra region exploded and how old was she before Storm-9 happened? Did Team Xen attack the girl, because Irvin was part of the Storm Chasers?
Lol you misunderstood the sentence in such a funny way.
They didn't kill her for clothes. The NPC just says that Team Xen puts a 'X' as decoration on their Team's uniforms.
As for which Team Xen killed her, as long as we don't get more specific infos we can't really tell. Irvin is pretty old already, so both are possible. And since Madame X can time travel her age might not be relevant.

I'll just wait until I can get an ability capsule. I read there was supposed to be one in Vanem's gym but couldn't find it.
I don't remember one being in Venam's gym, maybe you're using an old version's guide. The earliest would be Melia's suitcase in Goldenwood forest, by using her normal code instead of the one she tells you to use.
But even then, the Dusk evolution in Rejuv doesn't work the same way as in Reborn. You need to get it with Own Tempo, ability capsules won't work, breeding won't work either, and the daytime is probably irrelevant. There's only two possibilities to get it: Trade with the woman on Oceana Pier, or catch a Dusk Lycanroc in the wild (which you can after the 3rd badge). -

There's a static encounter for Natu in the Rhodocrine Jungle through the cave in Beryl Ward and it will appear if you don't have an Ill-Fated Doll in your bag. Also if you haven't beaten the 9th gym at this point you can go to a subsection of the Grand Stairway where you have a chance of encountering Natu.
If neither of these work then I can just trade you a Natu.
Bruh... OP literally said not to tell them. (Although it is kinda difficult to find that out on your own, with the additional item restriction.)
Edit: I think this event can be bugged, last time I tried it didn't work at all.
Other than Natu, I believe you can miss Whismur and Azurill (if you didn't pick up the Sea incense). Both can only be gotten pre-restoration

load an older save, then disable it from there
-
you can later buy Blast Powder, with which you can mine rocks a second time. They'll vanish afterwards, meaning you can get what's behind

I was at the place where the room with cold air, the one where you need to enter the 3 passwords. When I did that, I entered and the game crashed. Something about script hanging, can't remember clearly what it said. Then when i try to load the game again, it says "The map is corrupt. The game cannot continue." So I went to look around this forum and found out on how to recover it by using my backup save file. I followed the guide exactly and when I did that, I tried to run the application but nothing happens. The game didn't even load. I attached the game file after it crashed and the second game file is the latest backup save file. Please help.
Game.ini 108 B · 0 downloads Game - 408 - Dexon - 18h 0m - 2 badges.rxdata 186.85 kB · 0 downloads
Works fine for me. The Game.ini is not your save file, there's a file called Game.rxdata in the same folder where the backups are located. You have to delete/rename it first, then rename the backup to Game.rxdata and leave that file in that folder. If your game still crashes, try redownloading the game.

Why would you start the whole game anew just because of one fight?? You can catch and train some other mons if you want to try a different team, you're torturing yourself for no reason.
Also which abilities do your mons have? That's important information beside the moves when asking for tips. Because you might want to change an ability in certain cases if they're not optimal. (e.g. give Blaziken Speed Boost or Myghtiena Moxie).
I don't remember if you can go back to Terajuma after arriving in Kristilline before defeating Angie, but if not: There are wild ice pokemon in the tower to catch, they could abuse the field just as well as Angie's pokemon.
You should probably replace Shiinotic and Drifblim just for this fight since they don't seem very helpful.If you can't return to Teila Resort and don't find the catchable mons in Kristilline helpful, you could also load an older save file from just before going to Kristilline so you can go get some other mons from other places, but then you'd have to do the whole story in Kristilline again, though that's still much better than starting from zero. Day/Dusk Lycanroc is really fast and wrecks Angie with Rock Slide. The Safari Zone has Torkoal with Drought to stop the Hail, or even better would be an Gigalith with Sand stream which would go really well with Lycanroc (especially Day form with Sand Rush).

Underwater encounters don't show in the dex in general I believe, but Chinchou is definitely findable underwater by Aquamarine cave.

You could load an older backup save from before you left, if you haven't progressed much since then.
Otherwise you could post your save file here, then someone could use debug to get you back.

Also the Goomink quest located in Honec woods, which is a pretty long and funny one. It's available after doing all the Neo Gearen Help quests.
On Yui's Ranch there's another quest involving a farmer boy. This might also be a prerequisite for the Goomink quest.
In Amethyst Cave is a short side quest, you should do this one before the Narcissa quest.

It's really the same Erin. That has already been confirmed by Jan who said that Erin is the type of person who likes to dye her hair.
Hmm yeah could be, I wasn't sure anymore if they revealed their goals themselves, but Melia seemed reeaaally convinced that she figured out their plan, so I just went with that.
Especially none of the Xen admins look like they want to destroy the whole region, except for Geara who revers Indriad so he'd definitely do it.
