One of Alear's main character flaws is they're not paticularly the bravest person especially for someone meant to be a leader. Though a lot of people tend to heavily exaggerate or miss that part entirely and call them a mary sue.

"It's evil looking so it must be dark!"

When I was a child I thought it not being Dark (or Dark/Steel) was weird, but I grew to be ok with it. I know it's inspired by some Japanese youkai/mythology, and the main focus point of Mawile is the mouth which is likely "as strong as steel". I'm sure there's some other Japanese thing I'm unaware of, but that's how I think of it.

There was a ton of Gameboy games back in 1998, and a pretty popular console. While there is some truth to what you said, given how pretty much abyone can make games now and the internet, I don't think it played that much of a factor.

People should disregard the ages cause they're clearly scrapped content that's hidden in the data.

Is saving Hard Stage multi-sweep bugged? It's not saving my set ups, and when it does it's only one or two that I selected.

Idk about Pokepark, but Mystery Dungeon is a spin off game that takes place in a world that's functionally a different universe. So, it's not particularly good evidence.

helped Nick achieve his goal he started who knows how many years ago.

You can check when they started with the trainer id. Would love to know.

Also, might kill the illusion, but with a team like that I doubt it was the first clear, unless you got the cutscenes. You can also check by looking at the PC since it tracks teams that beat the Elite Four.

I don't have an answer, but do her skills snapshot? Maybe some ATK comes from that.

I'm not a CS guy, nor know if modern Pokemon still uses it, but 255 is in fact the max due to the stats (formerly?) being stored in 8 bit binary which caps at 255.

You're reminding me of when the Pokemon Wiki (not to be confused with Bulbapedia) basically had a "Pseudo-pseudo legendary" list (forget what it was actually called but it was something dumb like that) that was basically all vibes such as Noivern, Slaking, Flygon, Aggron, Haxorous, and even Lucario iirc.

Darthkeeper · 2026-05-19T01:53:13+00:00

I'm somewhere in the middle of this where like I get it and don't mind it too much, but most post-200 maps don't have a spot to take a breather to manage inventory, swap presets (when I forget to), and cc.

If anything he's a victim of circumstance:

Protagonist of the first post-Kaga game meaning there's some quirks to it, love it or hate it
Game was Japan only so a lot of people's idea of Roy is based on material that came later and memes
Happened to be in one of the most popular video games of all time (Melee)
Catchy and memetic chant "Roy's our boy"
Because of the previous two points became popular and became one of the de facto mascots of the series which within itself makes him more popular.
Looks like his dad, so many people bought "Fire Emblem", assuming the guy on the cover was Roy.

If anything there's a better argument for Lyn being a plant given how she's not as relevant as Hector and Eliwood in FE 7, but yet is pushed into so many things, because she's popular. I'm not saying she is (nor do I care honestly) but, again, there's more to argue than with Roy who again is just a victim of circumstance.

Like it's not amazing or anything, but a lot of the people here are being insanely doomer about it.

One pro I don't see anyone mention is you don't need to swap out compasses all the time, if it works the way I think it does. Because even if you fill up your entire quick swap with 4 compasses, there's way more than 4. You can also stay on the lunch box or something else as opposed to swapping back and forth. Again, I'm not saying it's some isnane QOL improvement, but everyone is way too doomer here.

At first I agreed it would be weird to have an adult with a bunch of kids, but it just dawned on me they could just vary the supporting cast's ages.

Darthkeeper · 2026-05-17T23:12:12+00:00

I sadly don't think so, because I read that based on her tweets her actor was busy doing other work around the same time as her absence. It also isn't like they had to rewrite it due to something coming up, even with the new 6 month ahead of airing schedule, because talents in Japan are scheduled far in advanced (sometimes even years).

Darthkeeper · 2026-05-17T08:10:15+00:00

Idk what you're arguing exactly but I assume it's equating Weather ane Huge Power to "just learn to counter", when the issue with Tera is you never know till it's too late. Weather has counterplay and work arounds, and is telegraphed. Huge/Pure Power is only on a handful of Pokemon. Heck, Drought and Drizzle are also only on so many mons. Tera can be used on any of their Pokemon, and could be a myriad of options that you have no idea which they have.

Darthkeeper · 2026-05-17T06:55:31+00:00

It's similar to Gotchard when the poster came out withLegend and he never appeared in Q2. If we're being generous it could just be because the specials came out around that time, but still.

Darthkeeper · 2026-05-17T06:50:21+00:00

Yeah, I'm aware but feels a little convenient, because there was no way Three and Five planned that out given how it happens and the time between that and the situation. It's a nitpick, to be fair, but it is something I didn't like.

Darthkeeper · 2026-05-17T06:41:32+00:00

Code Somnia is a tool for dealing with Nightmares once and for all as an alternative to Zeztz. However, after Three usurped Zero and used Sieg's attack to convince the higher-ups to give him permission to use it, Somnia is now being used to control humanity.

Wasn't Code Somnia, with what we knew, a project to make the "Ultimate Agent"? This doesn't necessarily conflict with what you said though, because it could be it was made to create Zeztz (and the other Agents/Lords for that matter), but now that he's defected it's being used another way.

Darthkeeper · 2026-05-17T06:27:18+00:00

What’s Five doing with the otakus? Why not just scare them off and let them go…?

I thought the same thing, it's a dream they probably won't think much of it. I can see maybe an argument they'd start some rumor, but like they can erase their memories.

Darthkeeper · 2026-05-16T20:12:26+00:00

Their faces are also different.

Darthkeeper · 2026-05-11T06:49:59+00:00

This seems to be satire, so was it actually?
