WELL DAMN!!!
Anyways, I agree with you that the rematch could've been a lot better. Due to this episodes shortness and the only new place was the water treatment plant, there wasn't a proper place to fight Solaris. In the situation we were in at Amaria's house, Solaris would not have said, "No green one step aside, I know *main character* wants a rematch". Everyone would've been like "NO, GTFO & LEAVE!" The plan was to protect the house, not settle the score (which we will we probably do in a later episode). Had Sirius replaced Solaris and joined with new world orderly #47, I would've been contempt knowing that Solaris would be waiting with stronger PKMN. And about what you said about the situation w/ Blake. That would not have been the ideal place to fight Solaris. To me, it would'nt fit in with the plot and and if you lose, you gotta climb back up that mountain and you gotta fight Blake again (Blake and that damn Walrein were a pain in the ass) just to get to him. And IIRC, Cal and Heather were trying to take down the helicopter with Solaris in it, so him battling us woud've gave us all time to take down Solaris and bring him in to Reborn. That just doesn't sound right. If Solaris is one of the higher ups of this notorious Team Meteor, he would know better to let his hate towards *main character* get in the way. Although it was somewhat underwhelming, I think Ame did the right thing with the whole *main character* and the Onyx Ward lackeys Alumni vs. Team Meteor. The only complaint, switch Sirius with Solaris. Other than that, there's nothing we can do. Now, all we can do is train up some PKMN and wait patiently for E16
