They took his lab, his pokemon, his coat, and even his goat. Why? Is he really going to be DLC locked? Or do they just hate Kalos that much to shaft it twice.
>>58401110After Oak he was my 2nd favorite Professor, just a chill guy.Sigh..
>>58401110>we don't get to see him and lysandre reuniteWe were actually, literally, unequivocally robbed
>>58401110Yeah one weird thing about PLZA is that despite being set only 5 years after XY barely any characters return. yet Blueberry academy feels more connected to Unova despite being literally changed at the last minute from an Alola DLC. It's like they went out of their way to ignore old characters
>>58401120he was the best man, he liked to flirt even though he was shit at it but man did he love his pokemon.
>>58401180Wait a minute, i thought it was a prequel
>>58401264Nope it takes place 5 years after the events of XY and there's seriously glaring omissions of the past characters from this game.Sycamore and Clemont/Bonnie are the biggest omissions. Most of the game doesn't even feel like a sequel of XY and just feels like a random spinoff skinwalking as Kalos. With the best parts of the game being naturally the legacy XY characters.
>>58401110He probably resigned in disgrace after not realizing his best friend was transparently evil.
>>58401281if they did not call this xy related, i think it would be a fine enough filler title. for anyone who cares about lore, this is a huge slap in the face. i thought he was going to end up in the basement somewhere, kidnapped....the whole subversion of flare taking over and not being answered is dumb...lysandre just suddenly "old" and "good" is dumb....none of it makes sense.
>>58401281>Most of the game doesn't even feel like a sequel of XYBecause it's not meant to be? They left you a big fucking hint in the name of the game like: "Pokémon Legends: Z-A" and not "Pocket Monsters Series: XY2" after all.
>>58401293but why would zygarde save him then. none of this story makes ANY sense. its like they deleted every other page of their script and called it a day.
>>58401293He didn't actually do that, he organized the parade for the XY friend group as an apology for not realizing it and as thanks for saving the region.
>>58401110schizo theory, he's probably the mc's father, and TPC hates fathers>you can have a whiff of Daddy from his photos
>>58401294Even if lore wasn't a factor it doesn't make sense that the professor well known for his study of evolution and mega evolution is... not in the game that features mega evolutions so heavily, and Clemont was the former gym leader and his gym was the tower, whats the explanation of him and Bonnie and why they never showed up once during the main story?>>58401296If it wasn't meant to be why then make the game take place 5 years after XY and have it set in Lumiose City? If they wanted a fully new cast then the time period needed to at least be 50-60 years at minimum.
>>58401110Huh, they canonized the Garchomp from the Ashnime.
>>58401331undoing all his work and research too basically...None of the story makes any sense. :(>>58401350this makes him stronger than cynthia lololoololoo
>>58401331>what is world-building?They said ME was as a result of the Ultimate Weapon being fired, thus for any new megas to play nicely with lore, they HAD to set it after the UW getting fired in XY. But just because it takes place after XY does not mean, state or guarantee it's going to give a fuck about the storyline of XY or the fact you didn't get a rehash of the thing when you were 9. Sorry you're an autistic cunt, but that's what you get for ignoring official information reveals, as they didn't once equate it to XY in that. Just the region of Kalos in general and the city of Lumiose in particular.
>>58401180>>58401264Something's up with the way they approach worldbuilding atm
>>58401281Diantha too, she's a Lumiose native. Although someone did say they kinda half reference her somewhere. Sina and Dexio are from Lumiose too iirc
>58401376Z tier bait
>>58401377Why? Because they ignore 90% of the game that took place outside Lumiose city in XY in a game focused on Lumiose city and the other 10% of XY? It's called "not confusing the children with talk of faceless unknowns".
>XYgote seethingAnd yet here we are: with a game set in Kalos that ignores your childhood ever took place, outside certain events like AZ cleaning up, L going hobo and the power of the Ultimate Weapon buggering shit up. Womp-womp. Better luck next life.
I can't believe after everything there are still people who give a shit about Pokemon's story or lore. The devs clearly don't give a shit, why do you?
>>58401331>not in the game that features mega evolutions so heavily, and Clemont was the former gym leader and his gym was the tower, whats the explanation of him and Bonnie and why they never showed up once during the main story?Watch, they will unironically be trapped in the mega dimension or whatever the fuck in the DLC
>>58401462Devs DO give a shit - for THEIR own version of events. Just because they didn't see fit to canonise your headcanon doesn't meant they don't care.
>>58401110>charging yumejos $30 to see their husbandowould they really...?
>>58401462Yeah you're right desu. It's annoying since these regions and their design are such a big part of the appeal of the series for me
>>58401110Ok I hav ex to ask……Did Scyamore get #metooed?
Anyone that's seriously defending gf on the lack of old characters need to stop licking the boot. No one's asking for every character to have a reference but like, you have to at least make the game feel like it is 5 years after XY. Haven't even seen a single Clemont/Bonnie mention even though they literally manage the tower. If they didn't want to touch on old characters at all they should've set it more than 5 years ahed of xy
>>58401681you're being baited anon
do tera leaks have anything about the dlc?
>the gym leader of the city this game is taking place in doesn't even get mentioned by an NPCdamn I knew XY's cast was unpopular, but holy shit
>>58401872Just what Pokemon are getting megas.
>>58401912Mable:>One of the 5 admins>Really forgettable, art of her was extremely sparse due to being a "minor" character>Somehow is the one character of the XY that makes it backClemont/Bonnie:>Clemont is the fucking gym leader of Lumiose and manages the tower>Obviously key character for progression and fucking gives you the thunderbolt TM>Clemont and Bonnie were both traveling companions of AshIt's very likely new writers that know very little about the connection to XY, or Game Freak themselves as per usual phoned it in. Even accounting for popularity, Clemont & Bonnie were LEAGUES more popular than Mable just from their importance alone.
>>58401110I can't fucking believe they didn't even bother make a quick portrait in the game art style (at least matching the one on the left) instead of copy-pasting a screenshot from the anime.That's shamelessly disgusting.(Mable is a fucking downgrade either way, she looks like a clown)
>>58401619He was forced to resign and is also a Frenchman who had contact with underage girls at his job. I know how Frenchmen operate well enough to fill in the blanks.
>>58403265>FrenchmanHe's Italian.
>>58401281>kalosperm lostgood
>>58401281Nigga nobody cares about ClemontKorrina not being there, despite being a mega expert was a bigger loss
predictions on DLC? think it will be low effort 45 min worth of nada? think characters will actually be behind it? also what do you think sales will be like.
So the timeline is>1006+Y+Z: PL3>1849: PL2 (Johto) - never happened>18XX: PLA>1996: Gen I/FRLG/RSE/ORAS>1999: Gen II/Gen IV/BDSP>1999+Y: BW>2004+Y: B2W2/XY>2006+Y: SM/USUM>2006+Y+Z: SwSh>2009+Y: PLZA
>>58401110It’s to show the legacy left from the professor in the original games
>>58403766"legacy"Get your simpleton ass out of here. they cut base game content into 2 dlcs, putting even megas behind them.
>>58403285He's from Pasio?
>>58403897according to the tera leaks, his character sheet was inspired by an italian man. he also loves women but is bad at them.
