I presume that judging by the lack of info provided, Terra's and Nathan's search/investigation came up empty. So we're left making a blind decision as to who will wield/attempt the wield The Sword.
Speaking from enlightened self interest here, I want Terra to be the one to wield it. Out of everyone, he's the tankiest by far and actually has the experience/desire to Fight himself (if need be or not), but ironically doesn't have much in the way of sheer firepower Moves or methods of buffing that don't have a downside/is situational (Angie's Agility non-withstanding, but using it now in days is more situational than not, due to Terra actually be fast and having a stellar default Dice Pool) . Almost all of Nathan's Pokemon either have direct STR buffing and/or High BP STABs, and has his Extreme Dexterity fueling their attacking and giving them Crits for days, so from a purely Non-Plot Device standpoint he's a-okay. Heart and Spira, though......they could also use The Sword to beef them up, but Heart already has a Moltres for literal future firepower, and Spira has something to do with Darkai , so they may not have pressing need of it.
You could argue that Terra having Arete disqualifies him from getting The Sword, but I say that ain't so for two reasons: Arete isn't really and truly a proper Plot Deviced Pokemon (Still a great one, though!), and their power level/potential is nerfed appropriately until it gets decked out in mods/grows up (Both options which cost great resources and muns). The fact they also a XP void and are stuck with their current Moveset until they get modded/TMed and Tutored also undermines it as a true blue powerhourse, so bear that in mind too.
That's my argument. What about yours, mates?
