Finished the Delta Episode.
Spoiler : Delta Episode, ORAS :
So... That certainly was a thing that happened. The Delta Episode was fun, sure, but... What the hell even happened? Somehow the whole thing felt really rushed and was absolutely confusing. I had no idea why anyone was doing anything, and even after hearing the explanations, I was still boggled to why they'd done what they did. Why was Courtney suddenly trying to destroy the world? Why was Team Magma back in action? Why was Zinnia just running around stealing people's keystones without bothering to explain why? Why was warping the meteor away a bad idea? What proof did Zinnia have that the meteor would f*ck up some helpless world? Why did Rayquaza just eat my rock? Why do I need to prove my worth to Zinnia still need to fight me after I JUST caught Rayquaza? Why was Deoxys trying to destroy the world by turning into a giant Bill Cipher triangle and driving a 6-mile long meteor into the planet? Why ARE YOU NOT GIVEN A SINGLE CHANCE TO SAVE BEFORE RUNNING INTO THAT FIGHT

I am utterly baffled as to what just went down, and I'm still not sure if I actually DID anything besides ride Rayquaza and kick Deoxys' ass (which to be fair, was pretty awesome. I do like Deoxys and Rayquaza.) I think the prevalent feeling I get is confusion. It got awesome during that last bit, but by then I was far too confused to really care. Zinnia's out to save the world by being a jerk because... destiny, I guess? And she has a tragic backstory where she lost someone she was close to and this is relevant... How? Courtney and Team Magma are back because... reasons? And the big one: Deoxys is gonna drop a giant meteor and destroy the world because......????

There's explanations, apparently, but I don't think any of them helped. The scientists say that they can warp away the meteor with Infinity Energy, but Zinnia is like "you'll screw over another world that can't stop it" which she knows because....? How does she even know WHERE the dimensional thing will send it? How does she know that world won't have Mega Evolution? How does she know ANY of this? And she destroys the device anyways (why can't they just make a new one) so the entire thing is pointless anyways, except to say "Hey this is an AU to the original R/S/E.

There's a scene where Courtney and Team Magma burst into the space station and try to ruin everything because....?? Why is Courtney doing this? Why does she think this is a good idea? Why are any of the Magma Grunts going along with this? Why aren't we arresting them on sight? We know where their base is I could literally tell Steven and he could round up a ton of Gym Leaders and E4 members and just raid the place. Why does Courtney still onlY USE ONE POKEMON SERIOUSLY. And then she doesn't show up for the rest of the adventure so that's pointless too.

Zinnia herself is confusing for me too. Why can't she just TELL people what she's doing? How come she has to be so cryptic when the fate of the world is happening. Am I supposed to feel bad for her despite barely knowing a thing about her at all? What is her personality like? We never really get to TALK to her at any point, just listen while she shoves exposition down our throats and talks about how foolish everyone else is. Why does she worry about hypothetically destroying an alternate world when she has absolutely no qualms about raising Groudon/Kyogre to wreck this one, then act like she has the moral high-ground in that argument? Has she learned anything by the end? Is she a better person for having gone through this? I don't really... GET her. It seems like she was just there to be "COOL MYSTERIOUS TRAINER WHO IS AWESOME AND ADVANCES THE PLOT". Don't really hate her, but I don't see much to love either. (Also how old even is she? I know this is anime but... It's highly unclear.)

So anyways that was the Delta Episode. Very confusing, very rushed... But hey I got my Sharpedonite by the end of it and that's all that matters. Also, May/Brendan is the most useless and I hate them. The game couldn't even make them relevant in the very end.

Yeah, the Delta Episode was pretty disappointing. XY still takes the cake for best aftergame story.
Spoiler : ORAS :
Speaking of, it's lame that they gave Looker amnesia and then proceeded to do nothing with it. I love Looker's character and they completely squander him ;_;
