History WMG / PokemonResetBloodlines

[[WMG:Other Bloodliners include...]]
* Sabrina as a Psychic type.
** Confirmed in Chapter 24, and in Chapter 26 she's revealed as a Psychic Heart.
* Red as a Technique Bloodliner with Future Sight.
** Half-{{Jossed}}. Red is a bloodliner, but his ability is not Future Sight, and is in fact related to Ash's Empowerment ability.
* Maylene as a Fighting-type bloodliner of some sort.
** Jossed in her interlude.
* Jasmine as a Steel-type bloodliner of some sort.
* Lance since in the manga he had special abilities including manipulating the trajectory of a Hyper Beam launched by his Pokemon. What ability this could even be within the Resetverse though is harder to tell.
** Or he could be a more standard Dragon-Heart bloodliner given his ability to control Dragon-types in the manga.
** Jossed as of Chapter 24, as well as his cousin, Clair. The author does, however, offer the possibility that the two may have the genes of a bloodliner in their DNA.
* Yellow would be a bloodliner with an Empowerment ability just like the manga.
** Her power in the manga has more to do with healing than empowering Pokemon. It was more due to her quick thinking (and exploiting a rather ridiculous deux ex machina; seriously, sending up power through a Butterfree's String Shot?) than her "Psychic" powers that led to Red's Pikachu's "Megavolt" attack that scared off Lugia.
** In the FRLG arc, during the climax, she boosted her Pokemons' levels from the twenties to the eighties, greatly freaking out the villains she was confronting. Yellow definitely has an Empowerment ability of some sort in the manga.
*** Yellow's powers are indeed healing, though whether this is Dominion based or one of the standard three is still unknown.
*** The blonde bundle of joy also has been noted to be extremely empathic, often saying and doing exactly the right thing at the right time for someone, whether human (more often than not Red) or Pokemon - a Dominion ability, perhaps? Or she could be a Gardevoir Species Bloodliner (it's category, the Embrace Pokemon, sounds pretty empathic) liberally using Heal Pulse.
*** In the Red Five Island Interlude, it is confirmed that her non-Dominion bloodline is Heal Pulse.
* Leaf/Blue/Green (Female) and Silver who would have abilities related to a Pokemon's Evolution.
* Gold who would have an ability related to hatching and raising Pokemon.
** Or maybe he is a Species Bloodliner and is a species with an ability like Flame Body, which makes hatching eggs faster.
* Crystal who could only be a Mega Kick bloodliner to go with how she catches Pokemon.
* All important {{NPC}}s who canonically had PsychicPowers in the anime, games or manga will be a Psychic-type bloodliner of some sort. This includes:
** Will of the Johto Elite Four, who was shown in the games teleporting Pokeballs from nowhere.
** Caitlin of the Unova Elite Four.
** Twins Tate and Liza of Hoenn.
* Valerie of Kalos, thus explaining her odd eyes. She's probably a Sylveon bloodliner.
* Molly, from Spell of the Unown (probably confirmed via Word of God in Ch. 5 review responses). Perhaps she has some kind of Unown bloodline?
** Her having some kind of Unown bloodline ''might'' be Jossed, depending on the author's views of whether Unown is a legendary or not.
* Sheena, from Arceus and the Jewel of Life - one of the characters that basically had a Bloodline-like ability from the anime series and movies.
* N (which is practically a given) along with his two foster sisters, Concordia and Anthea.
** N's canonical ability to talk with Pokemon will probably be featured. Assuming that Ash's prowess at the same talent is due to his Aura capabilities inherent in Lucario, it would seem that N's bloodline correlates with a Pokemon that can communicate with humans, like with the use of telepathy. Zorua, perhaps?
* The Shadow Triad... perhaps they're related to certain triplets who were abducted from Striaton City Children's Hospital ten years prior? (The author has made quite a few vague comments about Cilan, from him and his brothers not having the most healthy of relationships to all three being dead. Sure, dead is about as unhealthy as you can get, but...)
* Edmund a character of the day in Unova who causes rain around him. He's a Rain Dance bloodliner.
* Rui: With Wes being teased she is going to appear at some point, and with how both Pan and Satoshi (the latter we know is a bloodliner) reacted badly to Shadow Pokemon she probably has something that goes beyond merely sensing the evil.
** The author confirmed Rui would be in story and have a bloodline in his Review Feedback in Chapter 8.
* [[spoiler:Sketch, a Team Skull grunt, generates paint from her fingers.]] In other words, a Smeargle Species Bloodline.
* Duplica, as a Ditto Species Bloodliner.
* Lily, a Character of the Day from Johto who's responsible for turning Ash into a Pikachu that one time. Probably a Mismagius Bloodliner.
* Zoey, with one that may or may not relate to her Glameow.
* Karen as a Dark type, and a foil to Sabrina.

[[WMG:The meaning of the words in Chapter 8]]
The Redeemer, the Hunter, the Silent, the Lost, the Avenger and the Broken.
* ...I got nothing, unlike the other two.
* Maybe they refer to Ash's companions? The Avenger definitely seems to fit Iris given her motivation. I am not sure how the rest might correlate and Iris might as well be the Hunter, given she was the second to appear and it'd fit her...
* Maybe they're referring to his rivals. Red seems to fit the descriptor of "The Silent" pretty well.
** Confirmed on the part of Ash's female companions. Iris is the Hunter, as for the others, it's only known that Misty is ''not'' the Broken, and Dawn is ''not'' the Lost. The Silent is most certainly [[spoiler:Anabel, since she's unable to talk.]]
* I'm guessing the Avenger is Misty for wanting to prove herself better than her sisters. The Broken is Dawn for whatever the U.T.P. did. The Lost is Serena. And the Redeemer is May.
** Serena could be the Lost in the sense that she hasn't found her path to follow in life yet.
** Misty didn't really want to avenge any wrongdoings done by her sisters; rather, she wanted nothing to do with them, as seen by her lack of desire to take even one step in Cerulean and her personal reaction upon hearing Iris' family's fate.
** This probably follows the same pattern as the next stanza, where Ash's Pokemon are given nicknames in the order of their appearance in this universe. Thus Misty is the Redeemer (though how, I'm not sure), Iris the Hunter (confirmed), and [[spoiler:Anabel]] the Silent (practically confirmed). As to the Lost, the Avenger, and the Broken... well, only time will tell which one applies to Serena, Dawn, and May.
*** Keeping in mind that Misty's sisters were kidnapped by the Bloodliner King, there's a chance Misty will eventually learn of that, and might choose to save them despite everything they did to her, if only because she thinks it's "the right thing". In doing so, she might "redeem" them by showing that she still cares for them.
*** To redeem is either to compensate for either the faults or bad aspects of something or to gain or regain something in exchange of payment. Perhaps Misty's potential title refers to her second goal: to become the Cerulean City gym leader, thus redeeming her grandmother's legacy after her family neglected their responsibilities as both gym leaders and parents/older sisters.
* [=MissingNo=] once said that a ''lot'' of terrible things have happened to Dawn, so I'm guessing she's the Broken.
** She could also be 'the Lost', as she's the only one of Ash's partners in this storyline whose current location is completely unknown; Misty, Iris and Anabel are with him, and May and Serena are still living at home.
*** The author already confirmed via notes that Dawn is lost, but is not ''the'' Lost.

The Ace, the First, the Bird, the Performer, the Powerful and the Negotiator.
* I think this describes the first six Pokemon Ash got in this timeline. The Ace is Pikachu, the First is his first capture, Caterpie, now Butterfree, the Bird is Pidgeotto, now Pidgeot, the Performer is Aipom, now Ambipom, the Powerful is Charmander, now Charizard and finally, the Negotiator is Bulbasaur.
** Confirmed fully!! A pat on the back to whoever figured this one out.

The Don, the Corrupters, The Disruptors, the Destroyer, the Sage and the Fallen.
* I'm pretty sure this describes the evil teams and their leaders. The Don has to be Giovanni. Cyrus is likely the Destroyer. Ghetsis is definitely the Sage. Archie and Maxie are likely the Corrupters and the Disruptors respectively. That leaves Lysandre to be the Fallen.
** Alternately, both Archie and Maxie are the disruptors, while [[VideoGame/PokemonColosseum Gonzap and Evice]] are the corrupters.
** Confirmed for the most part. The first three are spot-on, Maxie and Archie are the Disruptors, but not the Corrupters, and the Fallen is still in the air on who it is (except that it's ''not'' Lysandre).
** With what they're doing with Shadow Pokemon, Team Cipher has got to be the Corrupters.
** If Lysandre is not the Fallen, could it be Lusamine instead? She's the only other who could fit the bill for that, given her backstory.
** Considering the prophecy predates Sun & Moon's announcement by years, it's highly unlikely that CPL could've assigned 'The Fallen' to her already by that point.

* Totodile will be much more effective in combat, with a chance to evolve. It's very likely that he will be a {{Dance Battler}} until his evolution into Feraligatr, when he will become a {{Mighty Glacier}}.

[[WMG: Ambertwo is still alive]]
Assuming she was still Mewtwo's companion in the dreamscape, I doubt he would want to kill her.
* Jossed. Mewtwo in the main story is still bent on trying to revive her, plus the Mewtwo Interlude confirmed she died when he destroyed the lab.

[[WMG:The sixth member of Ash's harem will be...]]
Place your bets here.
* Giselle, seeing as she's the only girl he was ever explicitly attracted to in the anime.
* Bianca (either one)
* Melody, seeing as she was attracted to him in Movie 2.
* Miette
* Casey
* Janine
* Zinnia
* Korrina
* Moon
* Leaf
* Kris
* Hilda
* A female look alike of Ash/Red/John Archer
** Didn't the Author say the sixth ''wouldn't'' be an original character?
* Macey
* Anabel
* Angie
* Mallow
* Lana
* Lillie
** Chapter 23 finally gives us the answer: [[spoiler:Anabel.]]

[[WMG:Brock's girlfriend is...]]
* Pike Queen Lucy. [[spoiler:Confirmed, as of the Holiday Special.]]
* Suzie. [[spoiler:Jossed]]
* Holly. [[spoiler:Jossed.]]

[[WMG:Red's other Bloodline is...]]
Since James found his body temperature to be unusually warm, Red has got to be a fire-type bloodliner of some sort.
* A Charizard Species Bloodliner.
* A Flamethrower Technique Bloodliner.
* A Fire Heart Bloodliner.
** Fire Heart seems unlikely, since so far we haven't seen any hints of him being able to understand his Charmeleon. The first two however, do seem plausible.
* Well, if Dominion Bloodliners have powers from Legendary Pokemon, add Fire to Victory and what do you get?
** If the above suggests it's Victini, then it's jossed, since there are no Legendary Bloodlines at all.
* Red's higher-than-normal body temperature, as noted by both James and Ash's Pokedex, could imply a Species Bloodliner with an Ability like Flame Body or Magma Armor.
** Confirmed as a Species Bloodliner, Fire Species to be specific. The Two Island Interlude explicitly confirms it's Charizard.

[[WMG:Ash's partner in the Fuchsia Tournament]]
Everything points that Ash will have to take part (and win) in the tournament to enter the Safari Zone in order to recapture his Tauros. The question is: who's going to be his partner? My guess is that it'll be chosen at random, like in the Hearthome Tag Tournament.
* Paul, like in the aforementioned Tag Tournament. And they will NOT get along.
* Gary. Likewise, they could see a bit from each other's skills, and Gary might even gain a degree of respect for Ash.
* One of Ash's female companions. This could make some interest development, depending on who gets chosen.
* Red. It'll be a chance for them to learn from each other more, and perhaps even become friends to an extent.
** Confirmed, which Ash isn't too excited about, what with Red probably being one of his long-lost half-siblings, and the different beliefs in regards to their Dominion Bloodlines.

[[WMG:The sixth girl's Bloodline ability is...]]
With Sabrina revealed as a Psychic-Heart, it's unlikely for [[spoiler:Anabel]] to also be a Psychic-Heart, and she's definitely not a Technique class, so she could only be a Species class Bloodliner, so place your bets!
* An Alakazam Bloodliner
* A Gardevoir Bloodliner
* A Slowking Bloodliner
** It's also possible they are distantly related. It's hardly like the fic hasn't teased that before, recall Siebold and Misty being related?
*** While the two do share the same Bloodline, they are not related, according to the author in Chapter 28. Says he, "two of their ancestors were simply affected by the same set of conditions at different times and places."
*** Confirmed as Psychic Heart in the Big P Pokémon Race Interlude.

[[WMG:The reason there even is a [[BizarreBabyBoom Bloodliner Baby Boom]] is...]]
* Someone found Jirachi and made a wish for there to be more Bloodliners.
* Grings Kodai drawing power from the Time Ripple turned him and lots of others into Bloodliners. By the movie, Grings had done the deed twenty years ago. Since it's in Sinnoh, give or take a few years, Grings actions can easily coincide with the start of the boom.
* A Bloodliner has the power to turn non-Bloodliners into Bloodliners and has been using it.
** Closest to the third one. Ash's father has a Dominion Bloodline that awakens the dormant genes carried by the women he sleeps with in their children, and in turn, they somehow affect others who develop powers of their own.
** [[spoiler: Anabel]] questions [[spoiler: Raikou]] about this, and while he cannot give a conclusive answer, the Pokemon does note that a past Bloodliner baby boom occurred after AZ set off the Ultimate Weapon 3000 years ago and was repeated "in the aftermath of some but not all meteor showers." So there is a chance that it wasn't just the product of the Bloodline King sowing oats, but a combination of factors. Infinity Energy, a topic broached a number of times in the Reset universe and directly correlating to the Ultimate Weapon, may play a part of it, perhaps as a byproduct of the overuse of Mega-Evolution?

[[WMG:The explanation of Dominion class powers]]
* They're what Legendary Pokemon can do. Dominion-class Bloodliners have the powers that are exclusive to legendary Pokemon. For example, Ash has Empowerment and Red has Victory Sight. It could be related to Victini's ability to guarantee victory. And Belladonna's power to force a person to speak the truth is based on Reshiram representing truth.
** Jossed as of Chapter 24. There are no Legendary Pokémon Bloodlines.
* With the above jossed, another possibility could be they are a manifestation of the users' "inner desires" so to speak. This can easily be seen with Ash, who is able to give his Pokémon [[SuperEmpowering temporary power boosts]] and wants to become strong enough to be a Pokémon Master as well as protect his friends, and Belladonna, who is able to force people to tell the truth and wants to learn the truth about her father and her origin.
** Except Red's Victory Sight is implied to have existed since he was a kid, and had to be told by his mother it was alright to use it, so I'm not sure it's something he wanted.
*** Confirmed, sort of. According to Hilda in Chapter 31, the Dominion Bloodline manifests depending on the definition of "power" each one of them has. Sabrina reinforces it in Chapter 33.

** Jossed. Upon revealing five of Ash's harem members in Chapter 5, the author immediately shot down Delia as the sixth, "as [he does] not support incest pairings." Chances are that isn't limited to parent-child relations and includes half-siblings as well.

*** This does support the theory that MissingNo's actions are "the enemy of my enemy is my friend. Causing TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt is essentially Cyrus' goal. So yeah, [=MissingNo=] isn't pure evil, just a jerk.

* Specifically, when the TR Trio sent that first report after trying to rob the Viridian Pokemon Center, in addition to the deja-vu Misty and Iris got, he gained some knowledge of Ash's "past" exploits, or at least a very strong impression that this kid is important for the general wellfare of the planet. His reaction is particularly telling:

** The original theory is Jossed. Anna, Arnold's mother, says the man she met before having Arnold was Orreian in apperance.

* Jossed as of Ch 28. The author merely used Caroline and Norm, the most plot-relevent characters who would conceivably do the nasty at that particular moment, to show he could write a "lemon."
