WOW, now I'm really hoping that this is the case! If SM has its own evil team, then everything would then combine together. Maybe not in SM as it would likely focus on its own region, but in the next pair of games after it, being the true "third versions." They would combine both Kalos and this new region and become an epic adventure to search for order. Great, now I'm really excited (and getting my hopes up). This would be an awesome way to integrate two generations in one system.
Have you noticed the colors on Zygarde's chest?
Have you noticed the colors for the SM logos?
X/Y logos are indigo/dark blue and red.
S/M logos are turquoise/light blue and orange.
That just leaves the color white on Zygarde's chest unaccounted for.
(I know that yellow, green, and violet are also colors of the rainbow but they aren't on Zygarde's chest :b)
And as we all know white is every color in the visible spectrum. Sunlight is white light that is composed of all the colors of the spectrum. A rainbow is proof of this. You can't see the colors of sunlight except when atmospheric conditions bend the light rays and create a rainbow.The key word here is atmospheric, but I'll get to that later. You can also use a prism to demonstrate this.
And black isn't a color, it is the absence of color. When it's night time people often use the term, "it's pitch black out". Black is associated with darkness and in turn the night.
Because of this rainbows are associated with the sun, however moonbows or moon/lunar rainbows as they are also known do occur, we just don't see the colors and thus moon rainbows appear to be grey. Moonbows are most easily viewed when the moon is at or nearest to its brightest phase full moon. For true moonbows to have the greatest prospect of appearing, the moon must be low in the sky and the night sky must be very dark.
(And of course there is the Sundial in Anistar City and the Hex Maniac quote referencing Moondials)
Because of this I assume rainbows will play a part in the story, I'm not sure if they will be an integral one but maybe just maybe.
(Also the Mega Evolution logo is rainbowish)
And as you guys have guessed it, the best place to see both rainbows and moonbows in the real world is Hawaii.
This puts a halt to my gen VII will be like Gen II in which we can revisit the previous region theory. Or does it?
I posted this in the Region/Locations thread and it applies here too.
What if the region isn't the Hawaiian geographical equivalent of the Pokemon world per se but instead be based on, or inspired by Hawaii. We already had Humilau city which was inspired by Hawaii but was georaphically located were Long Island would be. What if they do the same but we get a Hawaii-inspired Corsica. This would allow us to travel back to Kalos just how we were able to travel back to Kanto in Gen II.
I've also listed the thematic motifs/parallels that Gen II may possibly share with S/M. Gold and Silver's introduction of the Day/Night cycle and the Day/Night evolutions of Eevee into Espeon and Umbreon are some of the examples I listed.
Have people already discredited or forgotten about the Norse mythological references/connections? One of the key things missing was the Bifröst, the rainbow bridge.
And what do bridges do? They connect places and people.
Where do the villains come into this? Will they be messing around with rainbows/moonbows? I'm not sure, but they could potentially be messing around with the sun and moon enough that it brings an imbalance to the Pokemon ecosystem for there to be a connection with Zygarde. Zygarde's dex entry in Y and AS states that "It's hypothesized that it's monitoring those who destroy the ecosystem from deep in the cave where it lives". With the villainous teams potentially messing with the sun and moon, which could lead to the creation of certain Pokemon and the destruction of others because of the ecological changes that messing with the sun and moon could bring. And I'm pretty sure that would create major disarray in the ecosystem, enough for Zygarde to show it's "secret" power. However the X and OR dex explicitly state the Kalos ecosystem so there's that.
In 2016 it all comes together guys.
Anyways this was just a THEORY that I came up with just for laughs since it will most likely be that there isn't and never will be a connection but this is the best I could come up with, hope you guys and gals enjoyed it.
However I do think I'm onto something with the rainbow stuff though, I mean the code name for these games was niji.
