I think Bewear does represent Maria: she's a very important character, we simply haven't seen much of her: she is currently missing, and in her place we have Melia, who feels like she's Maria and that she isn't at the same time. The game will have to get to the bottom of it, and that means more screen time for Maria. Also, if Absol, Sableye, a-Ninetales, Togekiss, and Bewear are respectively Erin, Alice, Allen, Melia/M2, and Maria, we have a nice collection of Theolia siblings (sans Melania) being in the puzzle.

Reuploaded Spork adding VS sprites for Kelani and Alexander made by Palletite! Also changed directions for Spade, Orange, Cherry, Strawberry, and Quinn's VS sprites, as Spade was facing away from the opponent and the others mentioned were facing away from the player. The screenshots in the previous post have been updated to reflect these changes

if youre still looking for solutions i have a prankster perish song murkrow i could trade to you :)

I was about to make a post about this, but since this is here, i think i will say it here. Usually you achieve the renegade route by being an asshole to your "friends", which to some people seems a bit forced or even wrong within a human standpoint. But id like to propose a reason or interpretaion of the story to why this would make sense storywise. Of course you can be nice and do the stuff to get all the 100 Bad Karma Points but then you enter the renegade and theres a big shift in character, so it makes more sense to be somewhat a "bad person" through your playthrough. This is how i did my renegade route: At the beggining your mother disappeared (since we dont really know what happened), so you are in a new place, basically alone and with a somewhat traumatic event. So here i usually choose neutral / slighly good options, since you are not really a bad person, but you are not overly friendly either. This continues through all the chapters. Even the Marianette stuff which in my opinion is the worst to make "bad choices" (it feels really bad). Because yes, you are trapped in another dimension or whatever, but its not really her fault, and she even helps you so i see no reason to be mean to her. so again, neutral / slightly good options. Now the pivotal moment is the blacksteeple castle stuff. So picture this: Sorry if you guys had to read everything ahah. This is just my interpretation.

congrats on beating him for future reference, if you go to C:/users/%userprofile%/saved games/pokemon reborn you can find your save files in there. The current save is named Game.rxdata, the other files are all backup save files. Just rename them so that one of your backups is named Game.rxdata and load the game. (Alternatively Cass uploaded a shortcut on the reborn discord for getting to the save files folder directly, this can help to get there quickly every time you need to, or just create the shortcut yourself)
