bepe Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 All this talk of Cal and the events of Apophyll Island make me wonder: When will Victoria's bus return? We DID see her as we were going down the waterfall to the Water Treatment Plant if memory serves, so that means she can leave the Academy. Does this mean that she'll take a more active role in the plot again? I hope so, because I do quite like her design and character. Cain, Fern, and Victoria created an interesting dynamic as your three rivals at the beginning. Fern was the hotshot asshole who wanted to do everything better than you, and couldn't care less if you jumped off a bridge. He probably would've laughed! Cain, meanwhile, is also a bit of a hotshot, but he's much more caring, if a little too much. He's witty, clever, and far deeper than one might think initially, being a kindred spirit for Heather and some of the other young characters. Victoria is a different breed altogether. She's cautious, worrisome, and is essentially the most morally sound character we've met. She's emotional, cares for the feelings of others, and constantly blocks your way when she feels it would not be wise to do something(see fighting you before Shelly and Kiki). I want to see that dynamic come back, especially now that Mr. Grasshole has jumped over to Team Meteor. Cain knows this, but to our knowledge, Victoria doesn't. On another, unrelated note: How many Reborn League members are/were part of Team Meteor? We know about Corey and his motivations, Terra and her psychopathic tendencies, and Titania's status as a double agent(kind of). We can pretty much rule out most everyone else we've met. Every other Gym Leader has proven their innocence(to a degree), except for perhaps Radomus whose motivations I still don't quite get. Amaria's right out, Adrienn is probably one of the other few universally good characters, Saphira has the biggest grudge, and Hardy is, and forgive the pun, rock solid as well. That leaves the Elite 4. We know Laura was relieved of her duties for whatever reason(my theory is that El pulled some strings and Bennet took her place), but we know NOTHING of who the Elite 4 actually are, nor the Champion. There's like...two characters we've met who don't really have anything else about them: Lin, the boss of Team Meteor, and DJ Arclight. Considering that Lin is incredibly strong, there's a strong chance she's somewhere high up. Arclight runs the nightclub for the Elite, so he's also got connections. Who knows though? I might just be talking out of my ass. We know that El and Heather are in the Elite 4 based on what Cain and Cal have said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fumble Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 I have a question (apologies if this isn't the right thread to ask). When will this game be finished / what will be the last episode? And roughly how long would it take? This is easily the best Pokemon game I've played (huge shoutout to Amethyst) and I played it ~18 months ago. I finished to the latest episode but stopped playing since there wasn't much to do after that, and by the time the next episode came out I lost interest as I got really busy irl and picked up on competitive Pokemon, which is where I spend 99% of my Pokemon-playing now. I definitely want to try this game again since it's so good, but yeah I just want to ask how close is the game near to completion now? Just for personal OCD-ish reasons I like playing games that are finished, obviously no rush for the makers though, I understand it takes long and real life gets in the way, I'm just curious. There should be 19 or 20 Episodes in total, so 4-5 more left to go. Usually, one episode takes around 3-4 months, but E16 is expected to take a bit longer.

Dragon116 Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 (edited) The Elite Four so far are El, Laura (who was likely replaced with Bennet), Heather (someone in Beryl mentions it), and Anna. The Champion remains unknown. So far we've deduced (in a previous page) that it's either the dead police officer or the gym guy. Also, Randomus is definitely suspicious.After you rescue Luna from El, she says the following Prepare for Agent Randomus.

Monochrome_Complex Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 (edited) Arclight though? I could've sworn he was one of the E4. Also, willl some of the trainer NPC sprites ever be redone eventually? Cain's looks a tad dated.

Lostelle Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 Arclight though? I could've sworn he was one of the E4. I thought he was a Gym Leader, I could be wrong though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abyssreaper99 Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 I thought he was a Gym Leader, I could be wrong though. He was on the last season of the online league. Julia was the 1st season electric leader and Sigmund was the 2nd season electric leader, Arclight was the 3rd season electric leader. Samson....dated Terra? I always thought that they three circus leaders were involved in a kinky threesome...... I thought something was going on in between Terra and Ciel within the online league and in the game. didn't Terra say that she was the 'tamer of Ciel' or something like that when you first enter Agate Circus ( The Cierra shipping ftw with background Terrain).

bepe Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 Do we know for sure Anna is in the elite 4? The interview references that she has a prestigious position, but doesn't directly say she's and elite 4 member. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ej190 Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Does anyone else find it amazing that this game might not be finished by the time gen 7 comes out?

SnowGlaceon Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 every time i see Laura, i think shes working with TM, she seems to......suspiciously weak minded.. After seeing your house burned down, her parents still inside, being adopted by the a man who sees them more as test subjects than children, and having a couple thousand volts sent into every so often would be a very traumatic experience for anyone, let alone a child. I think her quirks are justified. Plus, do you really think she would work against her sisters on the same side as Sigmund? I strongly doubt it, but in Reborn anything goes...

[c]Although i wonder if the thought of coding in another generation of pokemon will motivate ame?[/c] iirc, I think Ame won't add gen 7 pokés anyway. In a way, Reborn is close to the end already. It's too much works... and all dem sprites though. Ame might die. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Amethyst Posted July 28, 2015 Author Administrators Share Posted July 28, 2015 If Gen 7 comes out before the game is completed, I'll be in for the long haul.

mde2001 Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 I don't think that Radomus is with Team Meteor. I think that when Luna is speaking about the darkness in his heart she is referring to a lost loved one (maybe a wife) or something like that. He might not be completely good but him working with El seems unlikely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fumble Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Perhaps he previously did work with Team Meteor, but quit afterwards. It would explain his Meteor suit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIGJRA Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 The only logical characters that we've met that might be a part of Team Meteor are basically the entire/part of the circus crew. Samson and Ciel could have easily been disguising Terra's behavior the whole time and only played along strategically when she went into the computer and stuff, knowing that the effects of turning it off wouldn't have deleted Terra. The Ferris Wheel might be connected to where the Agate sleepy sleepy PULSE is and it might be closed because the Ringmaster ordered it to be so. It would seem logical that they all colluded to trap the player and a bunch of the gym leaders beyond Agate Circus so they couldn't impede any progress of whatever they've been cooking in Reborn City since we left (likely to be explored in E16). Or maybe I'm just crazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bepe Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 I wonder how many of the gym leaders have access to fly? They made it through agate city without any issues like we had, and florinia and julia just passed with fly, so I wonder if any of them are actually blocked out of reborn city.

sound of silence Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 I don't think that Radomus is with Team Meteor. I think that when Luna is speaking about the darkness in his heart she is referring to a lost loved one (maybe a wife) or something like that. He might not be completely good but him working with El seems unlikely. The dead wife would be correct. In the beryl cemetary, there is a headstone that reads Zina Vanhanen. That part of the storyline still needs resolution as to how his wife passed, or any lead-up before that. There's also a fair bit of speculation Noel and Anna were the kids of Randomus, so it still remains a mystery, though I suspect Chubb's theory to be the most likely.

Dragon116 Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 So he got sucked in like Corey? If Anna and Noel are his kids, then that would explain why he wants to keep the Amethyst Pendant. Belrose were supposed to have the Sapphire Bracelet, meaning only Emerald Brooch is still in question. We know Luna had it, and it was supposedly given to her by El.

I never thought of who Anna and Noel's parents might be. To be quite honest that might explain a lot. They're smart kids, and given the fact that Radomus took the Amethyst Pendant from us for safe keeping and most DEFINITELY recognized it(if my memory of events is correct it's been quite a while ahahaha...), I'd say that's a non-zero chance. Also similar color schemes/family resemblance plays a factor. Take a look at the characters page on the main part of the site and tell me you don't see at least a BIT of family resemblance there.

bepe Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 Plus anna said she got the pendant from her dad, so Radomus keeping it could mean he was the one who gave it to her originally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
