yeah you need to revert to a save file from before you went to the stadium

that definitely shouldn't happen, upload your save file here so that someone can eventually help you

shouldn't you be able to roam freely after Steelix? if there are no common candies in the shop in front of tanzan, you can go back through the rail net to reach reborn city

1. You need the Enigmatic key, so story from V12 needs to be finished. 2. Go into the shrine underneath Aquamarine Cave (where Amber fell down), and dive in the little diving spot to the left. Save beforehand!! You have to dive at a specific point in that area, best would be as far down as possible, because when you get down you'll be inside of currents. Get onto the bottom tile so the current pushes you down to a spot behind a rock where you can't access otherwise. Go to the left and just follow the corridor until you get out of the ruin. Now there's gonna be a little building/tower in front of you, interact with it, it will say that a door somewhere opened. 3. Now go to the hidden area behind Aquamarine Cave. Enter the diving spot to the far right to reach the building which you can enter now. Lol now that you say it I'm not so sure, I always thought too that these are from the Garufans, but all of their other ruins look different and I don't remember if it was ever said that they build these futuristic ones.

There's actually lore on this in the game. On Route 6, there's that underwater building with lots of books about the Interceptor. One of them describes experiments with the Archtype which sometimes turned people into legendary pokemon. Also, I was wondering if there's another hidden sci-fi ruin, like in the pyramid, underneath the spring in Sheridan village. Because both of the other two springs have ruins like that where the water gets purified, so Sheridan should have such a ruin as well.

The rejuv wiki has outdated info, you shouldn't use it in the future. You can find everything up-to-date on the Rejuv section of this forum

We can actually know that she's next because the game files already have the whole set of gym badges, that's how we know the Steel gym is next in order, so it's very likely we're fighting Saki next. Also that Twitter account was a way of foreshadowing the events of the next version, Jan did that kind of thing before, and Zumi herself stated there's already a big hint towards Saki's new appearance, so we'll definitely see her in V13. Her disappearance in that picture might imply the "old Saki's" existence disappearing, due to the kidnapping and memory manipulation which Adam and Valarie went through as well. Also Freya basically helped and protected Saki on Terajuma after she flew off the ship, so it would be contradicting for her to suddenly harm her.

Was it "normal strong" or was it, like, super bulky? I'm really curious to know if this is just a normal Magneton with the wrong sprite or actually the Garufan one?

The problem is that this is the fight against Erick...

You can not fish in every waterplace, for example inside the two caves in Terajuma Jungle there are no encounters, so fishing won't work

you're right, lol, of course the ones we've met couldn't be spies, I already completely forgot everyone's story and personality after finishing the game again just recently Second Plot Twist: Team AA was founded by Crescent, to stop us from helping others and go live a normal life

The thing about stopping us from getting badges is actually a pretty good idea about her motivation. Also, since Amanda mentioned the league already being infiltrated, wouldn't that mean some of the gym leaders we met were already spies/agents/or whatever of the organization Amanda came from? Maybe someone will betray us in the future. Maybe Crescent was targeting those leaders she believes to be part of said organization by petrifying them in order to get in their way and protect the MC? The implication of saving everyone might also be possible by going back in time, since the whole story seems to be a time loop, as mentioned by Madame X and Kieran several times, who comment on events happening differently from what they know. Would be the easiest way at least. Also, the Last Ditch Project in Amethyst Grotto might have something to do with it, although I don't remember exactly if that was implied.

It doesn't always work immediately, just keep finding oases and checking on the tower until it appears

Yes Indriad being Xenadin is what I think as well, at least if Madame X truly is Maria or Melia. And I'm really interested in the connection between Maria and Marianette, and also with Melia if there is one. This seems to be the biggest piece of the puzzle we are still missing, since a connection was implied right at the beginning, yet we still don't have an answer.

Welcome on the forum, hope you'll have fun with this community! You can catch Bunnelby after two badges, in a place called Rodochrine Jungle. There are small caves in that jungle, Bunnelby can be found in those caves.

No the woman they saw had black hair, there's a NPC in Goldenleaf town (below Ren's home) who tells the story and how Narcissa saw a woman with black hair in a black dress smile at her. Also that fire wasn't started because of Indriad, as it is shown in WLL that they tried to kill Kenneth's daughter, whose class had a school trip there on that day. We also know that Freya wasn't working together with whoever started those fires, because the blackmailer pressured Kenneth to kill Taelia himself (since they seemingly didn't know who the "Maiden of Resurrection" was), while Freya knew it's Taelia and planned on killing her herself. About Geara: I'm not really sure about this, but I believe that he lost contact to Indriad after the fire. Especially since Indriad seems to have fused with Anju. And like I said, Team Xen banners and even their logos are all around the lab, which were definitely put up beforehand by Indriad or Geara, since Geara's last journal was written while they were trapped by the fire, and afterwards the lab was sealed off until we arrived so noone could've entered between then and the present time.

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.

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. 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.

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.

When I tried last time I couldn't get there without loosing the Rage powder over that shaky rock, is there another way?

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

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?

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
