{THIS HAS SPOILERS TO PLA STORY}
So as some of you might know, Volo the merchant turns out to be the villain that has the same plan/mindset as Cyrus which is to remake the world into their own vision. Then when I read his plan I realized how similar Cyrus's plan was to Volo's and thought to myself "what if Volo was the reason Team Galactic exists in diamond and pearl." and after looking through some other things from the game (PLA characters and their similarities to other games characters, DP story lore, and timelines) I come to the conclusion that Volo might actually be the reason Team Galactic is a thing in the future/present.
Considering the idea where PLA characters hair represents them as other characters ancestors (i.e. Cyrus and Cyllene), I wondered if Volo could be Cynthia's ancestor or if Cogita is the ancestor. Im assuming Volo and Cogita arent related since they acted more as Acquaintances so to strengthen my theory I will say Cogita is Cynthias ancestor. Continuing on, we know that in DP that Cyrus runs Team Galactic while in PLA the so called "Team Galactic" is called the Galaxy Team so sometime between the events of PLA to DP the Galaxy Team would have been disbanded or it could have taken control by a new person which eventually became evil and renamed to Team Galactic. Volo with the goal to create a new world probably shared his plan with others to create some kind of group which centuries later with Volo gone and the team being taken over by Cyrus, I would assume that Volo told Cyllene or Cyllenes children/grandchildren about his plan which was passed down to Cyrus to continue Volo's legacy and goal. This would make sense because once the hisuian pokedex is finished, the villagers start to trust pokemon, and the town grows bigger, they wouldnt need the Galaxy Expedition Team anymore. So then it would be safe to say after the Galaxy Team becomes a thing of the past, Volo or one of Volo's predecessors will remake it into Team Galactic. Now back to the topic on ancestors, if Volo was Cynthia's ancestor then it could have been possible for Cynthia to lead Team Galactic instead of Cyrus especially since Volo's goal has been passed down onto Cyrus, but she isnt the leader. Which further proves that Cogita and Cynthia are related. As for the other ancestors like Kamado and Akari, I think after the Galaxy Team broke up they went on to continue living their lives, Laventon goes back to Galar which will lead to Hop and Leon, Akari will lead to Dawn, Cyllene probably stayed good until one of her future grandchildren gets influenced by Volo's goal, and Kamado will lead to Professor Rowan.
So heres the full story for this theory.
After defeating Volo, he went off to figure out some questions he created of his experience. The player then continues to live in Hisui which will soon be renamed Sinnoh and all the ancestors continue to make the region grow into what we see today. Volo still questioning everything has not let his dream be crushed so he attempts to do it all over again even if it takes him centuries. A few years later possibly after the end of the Galaxy Expedition Team, Volo must have had a chat with Cyllene or one of her children about his plan and that he wants to recreate the galaxy team. Volo didnt have any children of his own so he most likely chose someone on the inside to help him. After many many years Team Galactic has finally become strong enough for them to continue Volo's goal. Then the story continues off from there, where the player gets his starter from rowan.
Sorry if you get confused while reading this, I sorta rant a bit when im thinking of lore like this. What do you think?
