Maybe Vinnie will promote you to instantly having 8 badges and we'll see the new elite four in the DLC. It's not 300 years ago anymore. They're around, just saying. Who are they?
>>58473234>Siebold quit to focus on cooking This is why I hate time skips, I don't want my favorite character to change like this dude.
>>58473234Diantha is uglyyyyyy
>>58473234diantha is beautifuuuu..l
>>58473234My girls are missing too...
>>58473234>>Diantha is "focusing on her acting career right now"Then who's the champion?
>>58474199Korrina.
>>58474199Calem.
>>58474199League was dismantled due to collaboration with Team Flare, Kalos had to resign from the United League Nation to no longer qualify as part of the system with Indigo, Hoenn, Sinnoh, Unova, Alola and Paldea. Galar also had to resign after the Darkest Day incidentDiantha's career took a turn for the worse as she stopped getting lead roles. Drasna moved back to Sinnoh after living in Kalos her entire life with a husband half her age. Wikstrom committed seppuku with his AegislashThis is where the Lumiose redevelopment project takes a turn since Jett also has proven to not be a competent leader and the Ange controversy means she's dumping her assets to her grandchild so they can deal with the blowback while she retires. In 5 more years, Lumiose will truly be reborn anew as a worthwhile tourist trap once rebranding happens
>>58475681Where the fuck is the water elite 4 member then
>>58475720Already established he's just focusing on his cooking now >>58473234Probably served his team to various socialites pay the bills
>>58474199Ramos
>>58475681Wikstrom is mentioned in the Hisui exhibit as they reached out to him for comment on why his armor was so similar. Given it was a relatively recent addition to the museum, we can assume he's probably still alive.
>>58475681>Diantha's career took a turn for the worse as she stopped getting lead roles.There's an ad for her newest movie in the game, it's called "The Suffering of a Carnation"
>>58473234They give Zero fucks about their Region Champion and rather talk about Champs from other regions
>>58475681Who's the husband?
>>58475826I'd almost feel bad for Diantha if i didn't consider her the worst Champion. Going full actress was a good change for her.>But Geeta-Geeta was funny with half the league disliking her her and enslaving Penny. She may been completely incapable in a Pokemon battle, but she goot good milage from playing up the League Chairwoman thing. Plus we all know the real Paldea Champion is Nemona anyway.
>>58476026The funnier part is Jacinthe is just a replica of her but with an actually cute face
>>58475681I know this is just for fun, but the Kalos League probably has been dismantled, actually.The location of Gyms is important enough that instead of shutting down the Viridian Gym after learning it was being run by a mob boss, a former Champion relocated to Viridian to take it over.Prism Tower has a Gym in it, which is no longer accessible. The League cannot operate without that Gym. Therefore, the league is no longer in operation.
>>58474199Calem obviously, he's the canon protagonist
>>58475826To be fair, not all leagues are created equal even as a presentation point of view outside of lore. Taking that into consideration, I wouldn't be surprised if Galar has the most popular league in the world compared to other regions with the sheer amount of production value it has compared to other leagues.
>>58477420BW2 are only two years after BW, but three gyms were replaced with new gyms in different townsThey can just open up new gyms elsewhere, or move Clemont's gym somewhere else
>>58477420But in that same gen they relocated the Cinnabar gym. There's precedent for it already, it could easily have just been moved. Or like in BW2 another gym opened up somewhere else.
>>58477444>Galar League was the most popular in the world>Everyone tunes into see the Invincible Leon effortless defeat all posers and give Galar a great sense of cultural pride>The back-to-back loss of Leon and Darkest Day made people lose faith in the League>People get wary of the spectacle of Dynamax and start to protest when gym leaders actually do use it>Piers smugly smiles as the institution falls apart without Rose and Leon
>>58473234Created to be a character that can stand alongside Cynthia's popularity btw
>>58477603Meanwhile Cynthia gets:Mega Chomp ZMega Lucario Zboth her ancestors are immortal, so they can easily make her one too
>>58477616How do know Volo is immortal and didn't just time travel to the present like a reverse Ingo
>>58477709Because Volo has no clear means to do so and his last PLA quote clearly alluded to immortalityAnd Cogita already set predecent for itIngo was taken back by either Arceus or the PLA protag. Neither of them would help VoloAnd not like immortals are scarce in Pokemon, you have AZ and L
>>58477603>Fails tremendously to make Diantha Cynthia's contemporary>Accidentally succeeds the second try
>>58473234>Kalos is falling apart just like how France and the rest of Europe is also falling apart irlArt truly imitates life
>>58477779>succeedsshe is just race war bait Nessa 2.0
>>58477814Nessa wishes she was anything more than racewar bait. Zero similarities between these characters other than they're black, it'd be like saying Cynthia is the exact same character as Bianca because they're blondePeople are going to be talking about Jacinthe a lot more than either Diantha or Nessa. Probably as much as Nemona, though
>>58477731Volo is going to change his name to v to keep with the theme isn't he.
>>58477875Remember, remember
Found a Diantha mention no one has posted yet
>>58475826After seeing what Leon did to Diantha in Master 8 I'm not suprised...
>>58475891Me.
>>58477875they did have you skip straight from V to F after all
>>58473234>Diantha is "focusing on her acting career right now"Wasn't there literally a line in XY about her getting old and possibly retiring? Wasn't that like the first line she ever fucking said in the series? I remember she was talking to Lysandre.
>>58478787It was a hypothetical by Lysandre trying to scare her into supporting his cause. Diantha's actually young (Teraleak puts her in her early 20s) and Lysandre went "WHAT IF YOU GET OLD WOULDN'T YOU WANT TO BE BEAUTIFUL FOREVER?" to which she said she'd be okay with getting different roles because time waits for no oneIt's her only scene in the game and it's just her musing about her potential rather than doing anything
>>58478930Didn't she make him back off trying to mind break some children at some point? I don't remember if that scene was special or the anime.
>>58479068Probably Special/Anime, this bitch literally disappears from the game after this scene. I think at best she only shows up during one of those "region-wide characters watching the big stupid weapon shoot out of Geosenge" scenes. Like we knew she was going to be the Champion, she's the only relevant NPC shown off that isn't related to some other faction, but that's only via context clues of having played the previous games. She does so little in XY that you could straight up forgotten she even existed and see her as the game's final boss and just be confused who she even isDiantha is the worst champion not because she's the weakest but because her presentation and presence is so miniscule it doesn't even feel like the devs tried
Would she be more popular if she was a brown loli
>>58480667iris is one of the least popular characters ever, so no.
>>58480674Iris has the most insane debuff out of any Pokemon character so that's not very fair
