That said, I know Scott's hints in his teasers were always very cryptic and inventive with how he hid them (as well as within the games, of course), but MatPat's overanalyzing to a point I don't think even Scott would go to. The timeline is a mess to my knowledge because of all of the little details that don't line up between entries (and that's not even mentioning the books, OOF), I can't imagine MatPat is making it easier on himself. For every timeline he creates, he neglects another possibility for the timeline that could also be true. I am curious just how much is feasibly strung together. 🤔

I mean, she could've also dressed Guzma like Xurkitree and herself like Pheromosa

[@TheMbmdcrew]

@@kirbyridingyoshi28 I’ll give you Lusamine styling herself after Pheromosa, though Guzma being styled after Xurkitree is a stretch in my opinion.
It must be noted that Lusamine’s interest is fixated on Nihilego in Sun and Moon and the anime, and it wasn’t until Pokemon Masters that we actually knew what she thought about Pheromosa. But still, it’s entirely possible that she could have used Pheromosa as inspiration for her personal style. This is especially true when you consider Nihilego behaves like a child, so she would likely consider dressing like it to be too juvenile for a middle-aged woman like her.
However, I doubt Lusamine is coercive enough to convince Guzma to dress like a Xurkitree. Team Skull’s entire thing is that they’re a street gang who won’t do what people tell them to. So why would Guzma take orders from her on what to wear? It’s not like he directly works for her and has to wear a uniform; this is something he wears in his capacity as Team Skull’s leader, so it most likely was purchased by him and him alone.

TJLC failing to come to fruition would have been alright if the season itself had fit better into the story the previous three seasons (and especially season three) had been building up to.
