#because the quests I specified are mostly the ones where she catches the legendary (cresselia/darkrai/marshadow/giratina specifically)

3, 14, and 15 for your pokemon reborn s/i? :o

Sure thing, Mordie! Thank you very much for these questions!!

(question source: "ask game: self-insert lore" by inserthaven)

3. how do the other characters generally feel about your self-insert? - I like to think that Adriana is fairly well-liked overall! She is naturally quite quiet and is definitely very much an introvert, but at the same time she is not someone who can be pushed around or who just goes along with what everyone else is doing. So, I like to think that those two sorts of traits together mean that she is able to get on amicably with almost everyone, even if she isn’t particularly similar to most people (for example, Julia or Cain). You could maybe say she’s easy for others around her to like?

14. what hobbies does your self-insert have? - Other than caring for and training with her Pokémon, Adriana also enjoys reading and listening to music. After the events of Reborn are over, when she and Luna go on holiday to Hoenn, she also tries out Pokémon Contests - specifically entering Cuteness Contests with her shiny Pumpkaboo Lumi - and finds them to be quite fun! I like to think she can bake Poké Puffs as well and will give them to her Pokémon as treats, given that she’s from Kalos.

15. how does your self-insert play a role in the plot of the story? does she help directly defeat the villain, support the heroes, etc.? - Adriana is one of the main protagonists of the story, and completely replaced the player character’s actions in the second timeline. In the timeline the game takes place in, which is the third one, she is not completely a player replacement due to not being Nostra’s chosen hero - she was instead brought forward from the previous (barely-failed) attempt at stopping the antagonist, due to Anna’s guilt at being unable to save her life in that attempt. However, she still obtains all eighteen Gym Badges (and is the first person to get through the postgame Elite Four after Anna disappears, allowing her to become a Champion), and she is present for almost all of the same events as the player encounters in the game - the main one she misses is in the Belly of the Beast, though some such as the Glass Workstation are changed in my version of events. Adriana is also the one who does some of the postgame legendary quests, including but not limited to Cresselia’s, Darkrai’s, Marshadow’s, Dialga and Palkia’s, Giratina’s, Necrozma’s, and possibly also Arceus’ although she’s not the one who catches that (with the others, and the rest of the plot, being taken on in my version of events by my friend Clara’s self-insert, who is the “main character” in this timeline). So, for all intents and purposes, Adri is essentially my version of the player character in the game.

I hope that those answers were alright, Mordie! Thank you very much again for sending the questions~
