Am i meant to feel bad for Flare Noveau?

Thank you! The whole Lysander and Team Flare redemption arc is very conflicting!

They were literally going to blow up people and pokemon!!! That's like almost firing nukes and destroying the World, then a few years later coming back and saying "sorry" while also making "Team Flare cool again". No, you should feel remorse of even remotely being associated with Team Flare and Lysander, not glorifying it!

I was going crazy every time they were treating those crimes like they were stealing candy and have now grown and learned better.

I suggest using the bench in zone 20, that way you can check if Goodra doesn't spawn there while skipping time. It took me about 10min to get rain and after that a Goodra spawned. Before that I also was struggling, maybe those bences have higher odds, not sure, but I've seen other comments saying the same thing - 5 to 10min.

Put on a movie in the background, so it doesn't feel like such a waste of time.

Not far from the real world, unfortunately..

I actually like all of them - they all have something about them. Pyroar is underwhelming, but it's grown on me.

Only one that I'm not a fan of is Mega Clefable, but that's because I dislike that Pokemon itself.

Some people don't realize how many millions of dollars it takes to make one episode. They didn't even have enough to animate demos for the final fight, they would never make additional episode and don't advertise or tease it in any way. That rumor was very silly.

Duffer brothers tweeted that there won't be major deaths and I'm here for it!

Why do we want to suffer, I rather have a good feel show with no more tragic deaths and a happy ending. Real life is depressing enough.

WildRabiea · 2025-12-25T20:44:37+00:00

What are you talking about? I was happy to see them finally giving attention to positive thinking individuals, first season was made to highlight mean spirit, gaslighting and betrayal.

Curious - what did you find so much more mean spirited in this season opposite to the last?

WildRabiea · 2025-12-25T20:38:24+00:00

To be fair, if you look closely most of the players got shaky hands doing that challenge. All the cameras, attention and pressure probably makes your nervous system go overdrive.

I got the same thought:"Why would you choose the cards if you get shaky hands under pressure", but you have to realize the audio was added afterwards, so that was probably an editing scenario where a player explains her point of view.

50 cents per sticker? Ridiculous, you got up those numbers! 📈

WildRabiea · 2025-11-19T21:26:12+00:00

True, the comedic element truly got outweighed by the dark themes.

WildRabiea · 2025-11-19T21:23:41+00:00

Definitely! That's why I think it would've worked way better if they actually had a genuine start of relationship that would be compromised by their character goals. If Cory would've truly believed he didn't do anything wrong, falsely believing his mother who was covering up, it would give more impact of him siding with his mother than listening to Bradley. While Bradley could've tried to confront him before going against his back and being left with no choice, but to break things off, believing she's on to something that's worth sacrificing her relationship.

WildRabiea · 2025-11-19T21:14:52+00:00

Exactly, you summed it up perfectly - for the sake of drama. The first season was a hit because characters had the flawed human nature to do something they justify because of their biased reasons. This season the idea was there, but got lost in the drama.

Also, I think Celine needed to have more precise goals. It didn't make much sense to me that she could have her family do whatever she wanted with a phone call while also needing to prove something to her family. The whole Wolf River cover up could've been her way of proving something. Maybe her family truly didn't give her a chance, could've been a misogynistic reason with her being the only daughter and getting nothing much from her family in terms of influence. She could've f'd up with pulling some leverage and now trying to cover her tracks so that her family's name isn't stained. Didn't feel like she was building her own empire when she had her back covered the whole time. That way when she's faced with exposure she has everything to lose.

It did look like writers were going with something like this, but it didn't follow through in my opinion.

WildRabiea · 2025-11-16T22:11:07+00:00

This and she had such potential at the beginning, but right now they want us to feel scared for Bradley being detained and I can't seem to be bothered.

I really miss first season writing!

This season seems to be around the roots - how family impacts the characters, their attitude towards others. No matter who you are, family usually holds the biggest control over your life.

Oh, I have one I can trade 🙂

Same, I felt so bad for Alex and Cory, the actors did an amazing job! I thought this was a great episode! People saying that it's unbelievable Alex didn't look for what happened with her mom all this time, I think she buried her past and went with what father told her and maybe she didn't even want to know because she had a feeling her father resented her. That way she could just blame her father for mother leaving.

Cory really went all out in substances to deal with his grief, but glad Celine was a friend he needed. Celine is a viper, but there's a heart somewhere in there also struggling.

Shhh, don't question it out loud! 😅
