      YES the battle in emerald takes place slightly after the Delta Episode when compared on a parallel universes timeline (the Mossdeep Space Center and Magma Hideout were two additional events in Emerald, and the Scott cutscenes added up, giving enough time for the Delta Episode to conclude and Steven relinquishing his position)

    • @Balistic_Vortex
      @Balistic_Vortex 3 роки тому +7

      the joke aside its not entirely wrong. the closes story reason for the change comes from the ruby and sapphire chapter of the pokemon adventure manga. its stated there that wallace did beat steven and became champion, but didn't take the mantle because he wanted to secede his master juan as the 8th gym leader. also because he and winona where a thing and he wanted to be closee to her. at the end of that section steven gives the title back to wallace and some time things happen and so it stays that way for emerald. as for the emerald section it focuses on the battle frontier mostly from what I remember.

    There actually is an explanation for Wallace's cape in the PokeSpe manga. That cape is the signature champion cape of the Hoenn region, and Steven was the one in possession of it at first. It was later revealed that Wallace was supposed to be the Hoenn's champion, having won the League, but he refused the position because he wanted to inherit the position of Sootopolis gym leader from his mentor Juan, so the one to come in second at the time, Steven, became the champion instead. He later on returned said cape to its rightful owner Wallace during the climax of the manga.
    So, yes, becoming the Hoenn champion does give you a fancy cape.

      Actually nothing much is mentioned in Emerald concerning Steven and Championship title. I think that decision was less plot and more the creators wanted a Red-Champion-esque battle like G/S/C, given it had already proven to be popular. Considering Emerald is an alternate tale to Ruby/Sapphire. It actually opens a lot of possibilities:
      1. Steven was champion but is later defeated by Wallace (how the protagonist of the games does it every time, and how we saw Iris take the title from Alder)
      2. Wallace was champion, Steven defeated him and became champion, then retired and the championship title automatically reverted to Wallace since he was the last to hold it (Ex: Red left, his title reverted to Blue/Green, Blue/Green rejected it so it reverted to the highest ranking Elite 4 member.)
      3. Wallace was champion and Steven defeated him, but decided not to take the title so it remained with the current champion

    Also, Hop is genuinely a powerful trainer who is definitely worth considering. By the end of the game, he easily matches up with his brother and gives a pretty great challenge. If he tried to be champion, I can see him doing it. The only reason he wasn’t was because we were his fight leading up to the finals.

    Wally could have a great team in Emerald in the post game.

    I think these Pokémon fit him better in terms of personality. He already has Gardevoirand Altaria.
    I think Breloom is a useful Pokémon he probably should have had instead of Roselia.
    Arcanine is like a guard dog for him.
    Ampharos is a friendly Pokémon that I could see comforting him when he’s struggling.
    And Tyranitar is a pseudo legendary that wasn’t used in the previous generation. It’s dark typing counters psychic and ghost, and the rock is good against flying and bug. It would be the equivalent of his Gen 6 Garchomp. Both contrast his timid nature.
