So why exactly did Lusamine sponsor Team Skull? None of Team

They were looking for Nebby.

So Aether looks better for foiling them, while they still get the Pokemon "Skull" was after. Public relations+Completely hiding your dirty work.

she wouldn't have gotten Cosmog back if it weren't for Team Skull.

>NPC on Ula'Ula: Those Team Skull thugs... They are taking the Pokémon they stole from others and skulking away with them by boat!

>by boat

That implies that Team Skull was giving the Pokemon they stole to the Aether Foundation.

Are you fucking retarded? Skull was the one bringing Pokés to her.

Gee I wonder who could be behind this post

>>31340555
trips confirm

>>31340555
Literally anyone?

>>31340473
The real question is why are all the aether people still there after you beat the game? And why bother with Aether paradise to begin with?

>>31340473
It's a throwback to colosseum and adventures, where the people you thought are the benevolent authorities are irredeemable malevolent criminal scum

>>31340615
because aether itself wasnt the problem, lusamine was

>>31340473
All aethers are scum that must be eradicated

>>31340473
They get to have some if not all the pokemon team skull steals

They get extra help in the search for Nebby, as a local gang looking for rare pokemon to steal doesn't seem as suspicious as an environmental foundation looking for a specific rare pokemon

They don't get their hands dirty and have thugs do it instead, meaning they still look like a clean, friendly environmental company (and they are, really; just faba was shady and lusamine was a crazy bitch, the rest were either just following orders or genuinely thinking they were helping pokemon)

>>31340615
Gladion is running it now. Lusamine was the problem, being all fucking crazy and what not.

It's like team plasma all over again

Eh, Ghetsis wanted to establish a personal caliphate or something and rule unopposed... to be honest Gen 5's plot is a bit of a jumbled mess.

Meanwhile Lusamine's villainy only extended far enough to jeopardise her surroundings in order to be with Nihilego, and generally be neglectful.
