OOC Plot Discussion [Sep 2020]

[scension]

Hi friends! Since this game is shaping up to be about the players slowly solving the plot mysteries as well as the characters, and because things have been kind of rapidfire up till now, a couple of us figured that a post to collect our OOC thoughts on the various current mysteries might be useful. This is a post! Please use it for whatever you like - suggesting your own theories, suggesting stuff that your own character might not pursue for whatever reason but other characters might, a place to plot next steps if you prefer it to plurk or discord, it really doesn't matter /o/

Potentially relevant links:
- September mod investigations/questions where we've been getting/pursuing most of the clues
- most recent IC meeting log
- current IC common knowledge cheat sheet courtesy of Haki
- bonus activity submission page including the plot clues given as rewards
(tell me to link something else here and i'll do it)

I have put in some toplevels just for organisational purposes but feel free to make your own or go without!

Frrom an OOC perspective, knowing what I know about Pokémon and the fact that the Gyarados in the lake was probably abused by humans in the past, I have a possible theory that the Game Corner is operated by some Rocket-like evil team that was responsible for that prior abuse, and subsequent distrust towards humans. How responsible this team is for the obviously weird weather and the role of the Kipz remains unclear.

oh that kinda makes sense... in the old games (that itaru's familiar with), a red gyarados was rampaging in the lake of rage due to forced evolution by team rocket. and the fact that the gyarados of that lake is looking after a shiny magikarp would mean that this is going to be a repeat of that incident in the games?? 🤔
