Back when Tigers used to smoke.
1. I don't ever recall that. I recall Red talking about a possible Pokemon from Space and Giovanni identifying the meteor as Deoxys but I believe Red came to the Hoenn region because the orbs were taken and a meteor was falling. Deoxys, the Pokemon and not the Meteor, was barely mentioned in the entire arc.That remains to be seen until the full volumes come out.
Also, Red was the one who informed them about Deoxys in the first place.
Again, wait for the full volumes so we can get the full answer.
Giovanni blatantly implied it was because it was angry that he threw it away.
Why are you assuming that I'm claiming that's the in-universe reason why Red is here? I meant from a writer's perspective.
An NPC in the games mentions it.
The Kanto Dex holders coming back kind of loses impact when we literally just saw them.
Also, and hate that I have to constantly keep bringing this up.
Pokespe can barely keep up with two protagonists with it's current release schedule, we don't need an extra four to show up and steal the spotlight from our fresh new protagonists.
2. I suspect we'll get an answer in the possible remake arc of Diamond and Pearl where the first Deoxys headed to Sinnoh.
3. I also meant it from a writer's perspective. The orbs are a good plot device as the driving force for Red and Blue's appearance. Although now that you mentioned it that way, I see what you mean by Deoxys serving as one of the reasons' for Red's appearance.
4. You are right about an NPC mentioning this. Yet another game-connection found between Adventures and the games.
5. We, or at least I, wasn't talking about what Pokemon Adventures need. In fact we've seen plenty of times that the schedule can run consistently with multiple old favorites. Rather I was talking about how high the likelihood of Yellow, and also the previous Gen 1 groups, making an appearance in the USUM is very likely and is something I'm excited for. Maybe your not but there are Adventure fans excited over the idea and may even see it as a must-have plotpoint. It's not 100% guaranteed, maybe we won't see all of them, but it's almost 100% guaranteed they will make an appearance somehow following the writer's mindset and trends. Also your argument of "The Kanto Dex holders coming back kind of loses impact when we literally just saw them." kind of loses impact as well since A) Anabel also barely made an impact in ORAS and is already making Adventure fans happy that she's made an appearance in SM, even though it seems to be a small role and B) Red and Green (Female), similar to Anabel, didn't really made much of an impact in ORAS and didn't really steal Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald's light and C) Red, Green, Blue, and Yellow manage to make an awesome appearance in the GS arc after there recent appearance in the Gen 1 arcs without stealing the spotlight from Gold, Silver, and Krystal. In fact that's one of the reasons why some people see the GS arc as one of, if not the greatest story arc in the series because of how the writer was able to handle so much characters, giving each time to shine and has continued doing this in later arcs with shorter schedules.
In fact, something tells me that the author didn't even planned on having the second Deoxys in an RS remake chapter because of how much filler it feels. So anyways, while you say we don't need it doesn't mean it's not going to happen and it doesn't mean the writer won't somehow be able to pull it off with a much larger cast like he did with some of the previous arcs, GS and XY being great examples of having returning characters without stealing the spotlight from others in a OG generation arc. In fact I don't think there has ever been a real moment where returning characters have completely stole the spotlight from an arc's main character. Personally I think you should give the idea a chance as the Adventures writer hasn't really written a story arc seen as terrible by most of his fans. Even the ORAS arc, which I kind of see it as filler with Red and Green (Female) as unneccesary, had many amazing and memorable moments that it isn't the worst Pokemon arc for me but rather it is the least-interesting good story arc out of the series.
