Thats a lot of points you made. Ven contribute a lot to everyone evolution. And the legacy he left behind, with the Pokemons he bring to everyone was important.
Its been years since I read the Skulls Ruins, and I do not recall EVERYTHING, and in mind, I do not recall all the Pokemons Heart contribute to everyone. But some of the evolution that come to mind both for Heart and maybe a bit for the others was like this I guess:
- Koa and Cottonee: Maybe Heart and Shiva friendly rivalry kinda helps the fae trainer to evolve in some way. I cant speak in the name of Phantom, so I just hope my words doesnt sound offensive or presumptions, its just the impression I had. Heart trully respect Shiva, not only from her strengh in the team, but because she had something Heart lacks for a long time: A true heart of gold, capable to feel love and respect around her, which is kinda ironic when I think about since Heart name is, well, heart. In a way, she was everything Heart wanted to be: Strong, but also kind. And I think Heart saying she is her rival, maybe help Shiva grown confidence, and find strengh. Not strengh in the form of a powerfull artefact, or a Legendary Boon. But the strengh that already exist: Within her. And Koa vs Cottonee was to me one of the battles I always remember very fondly, because it was not the classic: "I Dragon trainer and I gonna smack you fairy, and dragons go BRRRR!" But more like two friends having a nice battle. One full of blazing emotions, and one more calm and kind. And I think that rivalry also helps Heart grow a little, to be more kind, but also to try be more focus. Not to mentioned it was thank to Shiva that Viktor, Heart Phantump, became a Trevanant who help a lot to seal away the last part of Primal Deoxys death vengeance attack. I just wish they had their last Pokemon battle in the Pokemon League.
- Heart and Ven/Terra: What Windos said already is also already said. But...I guess the time with Ventus, and his departure had a impact in Heart evolution, in making him take things more serious, and sometimes do things what was necessary. Also, I dont remember to much things Heart did to help Terra in much ways. The only thing that I remember at the moment was when Terra asked him to understand what Duskull want from Terra to improve their bond. And maybe help Terra get a Meowth to get money later, however this is the far I can remember. If I forget something just tell me. I just wish Terra and Heart had a Pokemon battle previously to have some kind of experience.
- Nathan and Heart: I admit I was a brat. And a jerk. Specially at the start of the journey when I join the campaigh. I dont think Heart very much in the growth of Nathan. At least not that I recall. Again, its been years since I read the Skull Ruins, and I do not remember all the details. And I do not remember any Pokemon from Heart, be from his main pokemon or sporadic ones, that helped Nathan in any form. Viktor didnt help Gallade in its old fear of ghosts (I think it was a thing when he was a Kirlia?). Rose and Gallade never had a rivalry. Maybe if I act in some other way maybe Nathan and Heart would have more memorable moments in my mind. And again like before, I wished Nathan and Heart had their Pokemon battle. Maybe see Gallade special abilities go against Rose flaming skills. Or see more of the strategies of the two trainers. One who is literally the PUNisher and the other be serious as a heartbeat.
Thats my insights about it. I sorry if it is not so much great in details like Windos, but then again, you have to forgive me since its been years since I read the Skull Ruins, and a lot of details escape my memory.
