The dead-giveaway with these Ancestor characters is that they have very similar hair styles + colours to other characters. Calaba isn't anybody's ancestor because she doesn't have a unique hair style. It's the same with a lot of these characters in this video.

How is it funny

[@dillonkinder9296]

If you think about it Candice is a good person in Diamond and Pearl but her ancestor is bad

[@Fr1endly7]

Mar’s ancestor is just clever, Arezu, Arez, Ares, MARS!

[@mew2omastar123]

You had to use that scene for Beni and not the tons of others with him talking about potato mochi 💀

[@GioGospelGamerOfficial]

Clay will always be SMOL

[@arch_ang0l476]

So this means that Saturn, Candice, Bertha, and Agatha are all related even if it’s only distantly.

[@novaluisa7110]

nah, theyre from different clans so im p sure its more of a sisterhood type thing than them actually being sisters

[@CJCroen1393]

I'm not super far in the game (I'm going to battle Noble Lilligant) but I do wanna know: Does the Pearl Clan have tapestries like the ones the Diamond Clan has? I'd assume theirs would have an Archie lookalike in place of Maxie. Also, it's officially my headcanon now that Arezu (and by extension Mars) is related to the Maxie lookalike...and thus also related to Maxie.

Excuse me, Nintendo Unity? HOW THE HELL IS CALABA MINA'S ANCESTOR. THEY DON'T EVEN LOOK ALIKE NOT EVEN THE SLIGHTEST?

[@cartooncentral263]

I knew Liam was related to Clay. The hat was a dead giveaway.

[@birdboy1092]

I was really sad that Azeru turned into Mars in Diamond and pearl. She's probably my favorite character in PLA and to see her descendants turning into egotistical snot rags hurt my heart.

[@wingedbluj1674]

I also noticed if you look at Beni when he's not being a ninja, you can see his green hair under his... head covering (I don't know what to call it)

[@MoonyManiac]

Hisui is kinda modern day already,it has multiple mentions to galar and alola

[@oscarzxn4067]

The generations really elevated Candice's family if you know what I mean.

[@jonnyvegas4391]

[See's Beni] That's Wally. He just changed his name. [Cyllene] Still waiting for her to go "HA! IT WAS ME CYRUS ALL ALONG!!! But, the past is awesome. Let me stay pls."

[@makototakara7025]

Is it me or Candice, Saturn, and Agatha (or Bertha) are actually distant relatives?

[@TheDragonstorm1993]

Everyone: gets a cutscene of gameplay Leon and Hop: 👨‍👦

[@PHiLLy2c]

Im glad someone connected avery to melli but i think hes both klara and avery

[@ChampionRevilo]

And I thought I had noticed all of them! Some of them are very hard to notice.

[@Animeman284]

I'd like to point out something that most likely have overlooked about Pesselle, while Mira does have the same hair color and style she really doesn't look anything like Pesselle. If anything the various Nurse Joys in all the main games look more similar to Pesselle on top of the fact both she and them are nurses. Also I'd like to say I disagree with those saying they don't see the resemblance between Iraida and May cause I do, the second I saw her I thought of May cause they have similar facial structure and also wear similar looking clothes not to mention both wear a bandana that is red. While yes its odd to have one protagonist's ancestor show up yet the other doesn't, who's to say that Iraida's family stays in Hisui/Sinnoh? Perhaps some of her kids decide they'd rather go somewhere thats a good bit warmer and settle there rather than stay where its really cold, I mean if Benny truly is Wally's ancestor (who hints at moving to somewhere much warmer) theres nothing that suggests other ancestors eventually move to the other lands. And Ingo isn't his own ancestor, he's the same Ingo from B/W but got amnesia.

[@tirzahroseroot]

And now we know that Liam is also an ancestor of Lacey.

[@reviewer945]

Aside from Cyllene, Volo and Cogita I didn't notice the references until now.

[@killercroc99]

Who else started screaming swear words when Volo whipped out Garchomp?
