* Team Meteor's plan is to sink Reborn City in misery, forcing everyone to leave the city. Part of this plan involves blowing up the train station, the only way in or out, so new visitors will stop coming. This begs the question: exactly ''how'' does he expect people to leave the city?

** Considering the actions of Team Meteor with the Pulse Camerupt, it's possible they weren't planning for them to leave ''alive...''

** The player is supposed to be a young adult. Not everyone starts their League Challenge at age 10-11 (most obvious with the Black/White protags seeming older than most games, plus the existence of a trainer school), so the implication is probably that your character finished school, then saw an ad or whatever about "Hey, come challenge the league in THIS region, we have far more gym leaders than everyone else!" Many people choose to go far away when they finish school (moving halfway across the country, or even to another country, for college, for example), so why not your character, too? And, well, as the Champ, Ame is very invested in new trainers starting their League Challenge, and since there's far fewer than normal, she also has the time to meet you personally.

** Well, the player character is supposed to be the player's avatar. Why you came to Reborn, where you came from, whether you have a family... All that is left to you imagination. Ame seems willing to meet up with every new challenger; you can see the characters you haven't chose in the train at the start, they just uh. Never get much of a chance to do anything.

*** That still doesn't explain why you'd come to challenge a league with zero pokemon.

** It's mentioned early in the game that you came to the region to challenge the Reborn League (the Gym Leaders, and potentially the Elite Four and Champion. Which we're on the path to doing anyways). Ame and you apparently set all of this up in advance pre-game, it seems. Given that Reborn is a WretchedHive when you arrived and lots of citizens are leaving, getting new people to come and live in the Reborn Region would likely be a major benefit of helping you. Also, you get your first pokemon about ten minutes after arriving in Reborn, and again, it's implied that was planned beforehand.

* So... I'm confused, in other Pokemon games the set up is typically you're just a kid starting out on your first Pokemon adventure once you're old enough to carry Pokemon. But here? You apparently just decide to come to this region... for some reason, and Ame herself is willing to meet up with you and help you get started. Why? Who are you that she would go out of her way to help some random person with no Pokemon and why would you even come to such a dangerous region to begin with? And without Pokemon?! You can't even use the excuse of wanting to go to a dangerous region for a challenge because again, you have ZERO Pokemon!
