** After Kiera becomes a HalfHumanHybrid, he actually '''encourages''' Hoenn turning against her ''en masse'' and hunting her down like an animal. Why? Because now he can have her locked up in a lab 'for her own safety'. Plus he gets to [[EvilGloating gloat about]] 'being '''RIGHT'''.'

* In the aftermath of the Delta Episode, [[spoiler:Brendan Birch]] winds up in the wrong place at the wrong time... getting hit by a meteor fragment that punches right into their chest. Things just go downhill from there, what with the whole [[spoiler:Deoxys infection]] and all...

** WordOfGod establishes that for all that he [[ControlFreak tries to control Kiera]], he doesn't have anything in ''particular'' in mind. He isn't trying to guide her towards a certain career so much as keep her from doing anything ''HE'' doesn't want her to do. The closest thing he's got to a plan for her future is wanting to marry her off to somebody who can "[[StayInTheKitchen calm her down]]."

* All of the chaos with the Trio in Hoenn doesn't go unnoticed by other regions. Over in Kanto and Johto, Team Rocket is actually ''inspired'' to start PlayingWithSyringes, experimenting on their own men trying to make half-pokemon {{Super Soldier}}s. The 'mons used in these experiments tend to be their signature preferences, like Zubat, Rattata, Koffing and Ekans.
** The Koffing/Weezing hybrids tend not to last very long. [[ActionBomb Three]] [[SuicideAttack guesses]] [[TakingYouWithMe why]].
** Team Rocket also manage to get their hands on [[spoiler:post-Delta Brendan]], imprisoning them for several ''years'' before the Trio shows up.

In this 'verse, using the Red Orb to try and control Groudon [[PainfulTransformation forcibly morphs him]] into a HalfHumanHybrid, who promptly ''loses his mind''.
** Archie's attempt to stop him nearly costs him his life, and Kiera narrowly avoids getting killed herself.
* ''[[http://rad-roach.tumblr.com/post/111258458810/fic-weakness Weakness]]'': a short fic dealing with Kiera's nightmares after the Seafloor Cavern, building up to her decision to [[spoiler:deliberately try and KILL Maxie through his connection with Groudon]].
** Weakness also establishes that Kiera came ''THIS CLOSE'' to killing ''both'' Maxie and Archie in the heat of battle... and isn't entirely sure why she held back. In fact, she's frustrated by the fact she ''did''.
* Norman provides a different sort of horror simply through being an Actual Leaky Trashbag.
** The only reason he doesn't rely on ''physical'' abuse to try and keep Kiera in line? The second time he tried it, she fought back. That's literally the '''only''' reason he doesn't try and beat his daughter senseless.
