Welcome to Area Zero 2: Electric Boogaloo, featuring: - The most cracked spanish child the world has ever seen - An irresponsible obsessive teacher - A 14 year-old VGC player who's 3/4ths of the way through his Joker arc - And Carmine, who somehow is the normal one here

[@eeveequeenhanna]

Juliana/Florian(the player) is implied to be from Galar. Their mom uses British/Galarian slang and has a Skwovet, and they moved in shortly before the start of the game.

"And Carmine, who is somehow the normal one" Something is wrong when Carmine is the _normal_ one. She's a bystander who got swept up in craziness and she's along for the ride and all for it

I didn’t think Area Zero could get more beautiful… then I found the tree.

[@lunalgaleo1991]

I heard a rumor that it's a fully grown Herba Mystica.

[@jimmyjohn6479]

graphically it looks horrible but the concept is pretty cool

[@ryanpeacock9004]

My starter hit level 100 underneath that tree.

[@SiebayPlays]

The one tree in Pokémon that everyone can enjoy.

[@ice-iw5xr]

​@@lunalgaleo1991 makes sense

[@bagarcia09]

I absolutely loved this place. The way it still makes Area Zero even more mysterious than it already was. My only problem is that there wasn't much to do. No rare Pokemon there. No cool items we missed the first time. But I think that's also the point: we're *not* supposed to be back here.

[@pokefandylan2117]

There is actually a hidden Stellar Tera Garchomp to defeat and a hidden room full of lots of Tera Shards of all the types!

[@RetroLiminal99444]

That is the point. The lack of Pokémon makes this place eerie. Heck I get hesitant to return to that place.

[@pilot_aki]

Well there are Carbink which are not found anywhere else on Paldea.

[@KieranburgessBurgess]

"Terapagos either knows about the power it possesses, or it does not know..." "Both possibilities are equally terrifying."

[@Ninetails2000]

The contrast with Area Zero's main theme is absolutely stunning. Area Zero has a lot of industrial instruments and a mournful tone to the melody with the chorus only coming in at select parts. Comparatively, this is so much softer, quieter, a much more pure sound with a much more neutral, ambiguous tone. We've reached beyond what was potentially spoiled by humanity's intervention and now we're into the pure, clean, untouched majesty of the Great Crater and the direct source of Terastal Energy.

[@dubstep53]

That crystal tree on that island made me think it was a reference to Yggdrasil, the world tree. The Underdepths does feel and look like a different realm altogether and you did just cross into that realm yourself. Most stunningly beautiful part of the game IMO

[@darkmega24ify]

It's interesting that you would say that because Terapagos' Stellar Form is a reference to the World Turtle.

[@Aeonsteel]

Wait. Was the crystal tree a hint to Legends Z-A, cause Kalos Legends are based on Norse mythology?????

[@Evdafawth]

​@@Aeonsteel AYO, Tera Aura Trio?!

[@ShadowSkyX]

​@Aeonsteel the crystals on xernous's antlers when powered up look like terrastal shards. It's "cocoon" looks like a tree. It's likely xernous has the same inspiration with the tree of life. For all we know this energy is the reason so many pokemon even come to exist outside the known current generation ones we were just introduced to. The legendary beasts, ho-oh and its powers to revive them, AZ's Eternal Floette. Even the Spiky Eared Pichu could be one due to it or its parents being exposed to the terrastal energy, giving her a mutation and curse that she can never evolve. GF has left for her for so long that her existence has naturally developed, and now its a sad story.

[@tochinomasuta4600]

Deeper than that, it's the Tree of Life, a idea that predates Norse, even referenced in the Bible and it comes from Sumerian culture, the trees name was Assyria

[@NougatNate]

The original area zero theme had a “land lost in time” feeling to it THIS though…. Literally feels otherworldly, like being transcended to another reality

[@ice-iw5xr]

To me it feels like being in presence of the begining of life itself, like a place trapped in hte time of its origin

[@imapurplehoodie]

The nostalgia Gen Alpha is gonna have with this game when they get older will be crazy.

[@PatManDX]

honestly though. those kids wont be remembering the lag spikes and bugs by the time they're adults, just like how people now dont remember the problems in gen 1 and gen 4, or the indifference and disdain towards gen 5 back when it came out. those kids are eating good now, and i bet they'll be just as obnoxious as we are about our favorite gens lmao good for them, genuinely

[@leopardbunny]

@@PatManDX I sure as fuck remember the disdain toward gen 5 when I was a kid. never understood it, always thought it was the peak of the main series games.

[@jimmyjohn6479]

was literally 4 small caves

[@tailsfan10]

@@jimmyjohn6479 Small...but beautiful Just like Terapagos

[@Nel_Annette]

I wish there had been another layer between the initial cave and the Zero Lab: a stratum that, depending on the version, was either a dangerous jungle or a ruined futuristic city slowly being engulfed by crystallization. It would clearly still be in the cave, but the Professor's reckless experimenting would have transplanted a section of that time period into the cave. The music could then shift into more tribal or more synthy too.

[@metalxmecha567]

I love how tranquil and harmonious this sounds like this was suppose to be the original theme for upper area zero’s location but got scraped and saved for later however that marinated it and allowed it to get better like mom’s leftover spaghetti

[@samanthaanderson4112]

This theme is so beautiful that it made me cry the 2nd time I heard it.

[@yellowcaballero]

Love all the area zero and tera battle lemotifs

[@leopardbunny]

iirc Toby Fox helped quite a bit with this OST, and I think he collaborated with at least one of the other composers on Area Zero, which explains the surprisingly heavy use of leitmotifs this time around.

[@lunalgaleo1991]

The faint, deep, rumbling synths that start up in the background at 1:40 sent shivers down my spine. 😍 This was ABSOLUTELY worth the wait.

[@headphonesaxolotl]

It's a CRIME that Area Zero got such little attention. Aside from it's lore and final dungeon and Terapagos, there's... nothing. I think the Underdepths should have been one final bit of lore and have more open up after getting Terapagos.

[@poke2154]

Even better than the above ground Area Zero theme! Incredible!

[@thelongestshadow3389]

I didnt think this theme could get any better, but here we are. Captures the undertones of mystery and unknown strength very well too. When i heard this i immediately said to myself "yep whatevers down here....is going to f@(#* us all up, and I'm perfectly okay with that"😂😂😂

[@emremsanuar4796]

Simply divine.

[@dillonx719]

the journey back into area zero is so nostalgic even though it’s been just a year since we were last here. last time, we came with our friends from the academy whom we built love and admiration for over time. and despite kieran’s attitude, here we are again. but somehow it’s different. as familiar as this place is, as much as it is the area zero we witnessed with nemona penny and arven, this is unexplored territory. we’ve never been here before, but it feels like we have been. the soundtrack only furthers that. the choir is much more “methodical” and “relaxed” in contrast to the regular one being kind of “punchy” and “loud”. it’s almost eerie- fitting for a venture into somewhere we likely aren’t meant to be. absolute masterpiece.

[@danieldelta2464]

We need a new loop version of this, the 30 minute one was removed from KZbin; we need another one of that and maybe a 1 hour variant and 10 hour variant

[@ClaraAqua]

I love Area Zero ❤️

[@renjhieolivermanongdo6018]

This music maybe if you remove the crystal sounds in it...maybe it sorta sounds like a night theme of Area Zero
