Due to the timing of our respective illnesses (Bro got his two weeks before me and was therefore recovered; I got it right when ScarVio came out,) and then me focusing primarily on writing at the moment, Bro finished Pokemon Scarlet while I’m still pretty early on. But he plays primarily on the TV, and this means I was downstairs at a critical moment a few weeks ago:
Bro: Oh, yeah, and there’s a time machine.
Me: Naturally.
AI Sada: *Reveals that the time machine was catching Pokemon and bringing them back to the future*
Bro, laughing: But it only works on Pokeballs.
I laugh as well for a moment, and then
Me: Wait. Wait shit that’s a callback to the fucking Time Machine cross-generational trade thing in GSC. THIS IS A CANONICALLY-CONSISTENT TRAIT OF POKEMON TIME MACHINES, OH MY GOD.
And then we were both amused and impressed with AI Sada and her Sans Undertale eyes and her dropping Master Balls off the top of a skyscraper-like time machine.
But uh. Yeah. It may genuinely not be a case of the Professors’ overspecific obsession with past/future Pokemon or whatever? Manmade time machines in Pokemon may ONLY be able to transport Pokeballs. Or at least all known examples are. Which is only two of them, but I still feel like it’s worth mentioning that it happened twice.
Furthermore if I had a nickel for every time Gamefreak took a mechanic related to trading from a past generation that was no longer relevant due to the changing technology involved and made it a major dramatic plot point in a later game, I would ALSO have two nickels, with the Link Cable from Delta Episode. This one’s slightly less ridiculous, in that the Link Cable’s a reference to an actual real-world accessory to the Gameboy systems and also in the process maybe-unintentionally implies that every individual cartridge of Pokemon is its own distinct iteration of the multiverse, while ACTIVELY AND CONSCIOUSLY IMPLYING that every generation of Pokemon is a multiverse and the Gen III universe and RSE exist separately from the Gen VI universe and ORAS, but I would argue it’s also a far deeper cut. We didn’t have a time capsule in Gen IV, because we didn’t need it, we just had the Park. The Link Cable existed for the first three generations of Pokemon and multiple other games, people are more likely to be familiar with that than the fact that Gen II canonically had time travel but only really for Pokemon.
#pokemon spoilers#pokemon scarvi#pokemon scarvi spoilers#no seriously HUGE spoilers here#Pokemon GSC#hey I have the tag might as well use it#Pokemon ORAS#Pokemon Delta Episode#Delta Episode#I started writing this RIGHT after he hit that point#how much progress have I made since then? well...#look I published two fics in that time and I think I finally figured where the B-plot for Like A Butterfly will be going#I'm trying to keep up on that and crocheting and establishing the muscle memory for knitting and also I've had doctor's appointments#and I'm doing all that on minimal energy so Pokemon is A priority but not top#also I was trying to replay Bioshock in there that also didn't get finished I WILL do that at some point though#I am loving it though#Delta Episode my absolutely BONKERS beloved#every time I get to bring up that fact about the Pokemon multiverse I experience an emotion that is impossible to describe#because like I love this? But it is the single most ridiculous thing you could POSSIBLY choose to imply#second only. I suppose. to what this is implying about time travel.#(Arceus and wormholes are apparently totally exempt from this)#(but then I'm not entirely convinced we won't end up establishing that ScarVi take place in a continuity where the Hisuian forms just...#never actually went extinct really? and not much is made of it just. They still exist somewhere hanging around in Sinnoh. Weird huh.)#(there is strictly speaking nothing implying that PLA's protagonist - or for that matter Ingo - traveled ONLY through time and not space)#(frankly you can make a case the PC may have been a Pokemon fan from a Pokemonless world. AND I WILL!)#(but uh. yeah. Always remember the Pokemon Multiverse is a canonical thing that exists. And then be baffled and amazed. I do!)

"I was finally able to bring everything to an end. I thank you for that. I think I'll spend some time now trying to find out if it's also possible to forge a new beginning for something once lost. Until we meet again."

Hold up. Childhood friend Rayqauza? I mean cool, but I feel like I'm missing something?
Lol, so Ikrit’s home region is Hoenn, & while we started his timeline with Sapphire, it was more like Emerald. 🐉☁️
Tumblr media
He has a similar close relationship with Rayquaza as Ansy does Reshiram. It’s that closeness that helped him work together with them to bust the meteoroid containing Deoxys years later as an adult (he was dating Ansy at the time, taking her to visit his home region - then the Delta Episode happened lol).
*For more context, this is what the Asker was asking about lol:

Man, you can tell how few people played the Delta Episode because so many people have told me they thought Zinnia was my OC.
Nope, she's real.

Perhaps the delta episode could also be referred to as “The Zinniad”

I've had Alpha Sapphire for six years, but because i was a bit of a dumb child i gave up on Wallace's gym challenge, and never finished it.
Today, i beat the Elite Four and Champion.

Steven: My plan is to send the meteor to another universe with the link cable.
Zinnia: Are you alright with constructive criticism? I don't want to sound mean.
Steven: No, go ahead, I want to hear it.
Zinnia: Your plan fucking sucks.
Steven: That's not constructive criticism.

Was having some random Pokemon-related thoughts, then I thought "You know, it would be super funny if Zinnia was Drayton's mother" and now I fucking can't stop thinking of it.
Would make a funny headcanon or AU if nothing else

“But if you want I have old photos back when I was a teenager when I dyed my hair green because I really liked ludicolo, it was super cringey.”
“Pa are you going to eat anything?”
“Nah, I rather keep focused on the moment.”
