You get the same implied meaning, anyway, whichever one you pick. That’s quite good, actually I think that’s the best one. Just browsing his page on Bulbapedia… this is interesting, look at this the derivation of his name…īut in almost every other language it’s ‘Achroma’ or something similar, from chroma in Greek with a privative alpha. That’s maybe pushing a bit further than is strictly justified by the way the character is presented, though. That was how I wrote Colress when we did our playthrough-review-thing of Black 2 and White 2, anyway – I interpreted him as believing that, if Ghetsis was right about the best way to make Pokémon strong, then their civilisation wasn’t worth protecting anyway because it was built on flawed ideals. I took it as referring to the ‘worst-case scenario’ of Ghetsis winning, freezing Unova, and conquering the world – that is, their civilisation, the entire world as they know it being destroyed. I think “if the entire world is destroyed as a result” is exaggeration on his part. “What I desire is to bring out the entirety in Pokémon potential… if it means the strength must be brought out by the interactions between Pokémon and Trainers, then so be it! If it means you have to use a merciless approach, like Team Plasma’s, and force out all of the Pokémon’s power, then so be it! And yes, if the entire world is destroyed as a result, then so be it!” Uh… “IF THE ENTIRE WORLD IS DESTROYED AS A RESULT”? What… how… there wouldn’t even be any Pokémon left then! What would be the point of that? Basically he wants to know whether Pokémon are stronger when raised by kind trainers or by jerks. He talks about it when you fight him on Team Plasma’s… ship-thing. Remind me what exactly was he supposedly trying to do?įigure out the best way for Pokémon to become stronger. I actually liked him! I enjoyed the fact that he was working pretty much at right angles to what literally everyone else in the story was trying to do. However, I don’t care and I want to talk about Colress, because shut up.

Okay, I realise that we’re pushing it by including Colress in this series it’s easy to come up with reasons to lump in N with the list of ‘rival’ characters, even though he behaves very differently to the rest of them, but Colress is very clearly not the same thing.
