[Meta thread] Iron's PokeRole Adventure: The Skull Ruins

[Dragonstrike]

For the first point, Nathan has never really brought up his knowledge of the region's cultural past and mythology, only his rancher background, Ralts backstory (to an extent), and about info on his father to Ventus. And before, he really was not aware of how strong people felt about Pokemon, compared to other regions, so he really didn't pay attention at the time. Now, if he were to bring it up, Ventus would be more than happy to have a conversation about it, as well as share his region's mythology of his own in return. Give and receive, give and receive.

He hasn't brought up any specifics about that knowledge.  But he mentioned his readings about history during the argument in the hive, and a very brief look at Creshire's relations with pokemon in the arbok conversation.  But yes, if Ventus wasn't paying too much attention to that at the time, he might have missed those hints at Nathan's historical knowledge.  It's also a big reason why he's got so much inherent talent as a trainer, as he's finally able to try and apply some of the basic and semi-advanced techniques he's read about some trainers using.

Unfortunately, Nathan doesn't have any real reason to bring his knowledge up right now.  If an opportunity arises, he'll put it to use.  Or Ventus could ask Nathan about some more specifics about what he was alluding to during the arbok conversation, and that would get Nathan talking.
