Looks sorta interesting, but what's with R/S saga? What's Ruby doing with the Orbs and groudon? And who's that in the last shot with Norman? If it's not obvious, maybe Courtney? Or Steven?

ROCK ON JADE!

On the BF Saga:

It seems that Crystal isn't involved as much of a Main Character, but a Supporting Character. She seems to be giving orders through a PokeGear to Emerald, that's my best bet. Since Coronis isn't here and I don't really understand Japanese.

A mob of Pokemon attack, which includes Sableye, Togetic, Ivysaur, Spheal, Illumise, Spinda, Skarmory, Flaaffy, Farfetch'd, Rhyhorn, Snorunt, Illumise, Lileep, Wartortle, Slaking and some others... I don't know who they belong to...

And the Armored Man seems to have taken out Brandon, Regice, Lucy, Seviper, Tucker, Salamence, Spenser and Crobat. It seems so according to pictures.

FRLG Saga, I can barely understand.

Ooooh! RSE Saga... The faces are interesting... The blackened out ones...

I really love this month's update!

So the armoured man's name is finally revealed as Guile, or Gyle, however you'd like to put it. The Japanese pronunciation is Ga-i-ru. Hm, seems too powerful a villain to me, I mean, wipe clean of the Frontier Brains, including a legendary pokemon (Regice), with a single sword slash?

FRLG is stalling a bit again, if you ask me. Nothing I didn't expect from last month's cliffhanger.

For RSE, seems like the Gro/Kyo battle is finally 'over'. The last piccy shows Norman and Steven, both seem to be 'dying' in some way. Hm, wonder what the writers are trying to pull off. And I wonder if Courtney's relationship with Norman is really what we have been speculating all this time.

Edit: Oh, on second look of those swarm of pokemons, they are most probably the Factory rentals stolen by Guile. Every single one of them has been either an opponent or team member of Emerald.

Ooh! Interesting. Nice Summaries Coronis. I agree with the fact that FRLG is moving slowly... And didn't Steven say he would reach his life's end after the battle?

Even the powerful Frontier Brains get swiped down by Guile in one hit, how is Emerald going to fight down such a invinsible opponent

Invincible, dear Coronis, not invisible.

Myuu...
Hmm....

I think Giles would be a more suitable name for the villian.

Ya, actually I'd like ideas on how you guys want me to romanize (angelize) his name. As the Japanese pronunciation is Ga-i-ru, several English counterparts fit.

My first choice was Gile actually, but then I looked up on Giles, and it's pronounced as 'Jiles'. Still, I've heard people pronounce the other way too, so it's really up to you guys.

Either Guile, Gile, Gyle, or some other romanizations (angelization) you could think of.

I completely agree.

And CAA, Steven did say he would reach his life's end at the end of this war/battle between the two titans.

But, if Norman dies, how would Sapphire get the Balance Badge? Uh-Oh...

Myuu...
To get the Balance Badge - get it from her rival =p

Her rival? Is that Ruby? Sorry for the thickness, I know barely anything about the manga. There could be a temporary gym leader, or someone could give it to her for her part in the Gro/Kyo battle.

Anyway, I'm more stunned Norman also seems to be...well...dead. O.O;

"Guile" is a good name for a villan who's a guy :)

I agree, but I've seen "gile" as an alternative spelling for "guile" (very rare but it exists) so it's pretty much the same thing

I had the craziest thought. If Norman does indeed die, Ruby could take over and Sapphire would have to face him for the Balance Cadge, whilst also participating in their promised battle. Crazy, but it just might work. But for now I'll just wait and find out...

Norman won't die and Ruby won't take over... he still has to finish his pursuit for ribbons, surely it'll be completed before anything major (i.e. taking over as gym leader) happens.

I've not actually seen Crystal since gsc (Me being a tad stupid...) and I must say, I prefer her current costume to her old one.

'Tis funky how all the Brains get knocked out by the masked man AND his surskit ^.^

Norman looks a tad like giovanni o.o
And is that meant to be Ruby next to him in the bottom picture?
