Oh. O h . That, that might actually explain something that's been bothering me for a while now.

Ok so something that I just could not come up with any explanation for in regards to Rose was why the fricker-snaps did he treat Eternatus so horribly. Everything we learn about Rose points to him caring deeply for all of the inhabitants of Galar, both human and pokemon. Heck, he's the one who gives us the "pokemon are our friends, partners, and family!" spiel at the start of the game. So it makes zero sense whatsoever for him to suddenly pull a 180° and abuse eternatus for an energy source.

...But what if Rose didn't know eternatus was alive at first?

My assumption had been that eternatus upon reforming would always look vaguely like a living thing. But if at first it was only the glowing core, well that's a completely different story.

Our closest comparison for piecing a pokemon back together is zygard. A zygard cell has a cute face which makes it pretty obvious that it's a living thing. On the other hand, there is nothing about wishing stars and eternatus' core that denotes that they are a living being. And Rose wouldn't have gotten a warning from the old legends about eternatus being alive as they do not at any point hint that the darkest day was a living pokemon.

And sure there are some rock types that at first glance don't particularly have any living characteristics, but I can't think of any that doesn't at least have a vague caricature of a face that allows the human psyche to pack bond with the 'mon like they're Pluto.

But as stated above, eternatus' core and the wishing stars don't have any characteristics that suggest that they are alive. They look like just a bunch of rocks and a glowing ball of energy. They can't move on their own either. Rose wouldn't have any reason to think that this was a living pokemon.

And what if it took a lot of time and wishing stars for eternatus' core to start transforming into a recognizably living being? And even longer for it to start responding to its environment?

Maybe by the time Rose could realize that something was horribly wrong, he would feel he was in too deep to turn back.

... I always thought that the shadows over Rose's eyes made him look emotionally tired. I also feel like they get more accentuated as the story progresses. Maybe the shadows over his eyes represent his growing horror and guilt.

…Wait. Wait a fucking minute.

Why am I asking “how did Rose even find Eternatus?” when I should be asking “HOW THE FUCK DID HE SMUGGLE THAT GIGANTIC SON OF A BITCH INTO THE HAMMERLOCKE POWER PLANT WITHOUT ANYONE NOTICING?”

SIXTY-FIVE FEET

I mean THAT’S FUCKING HUGE

So Oleana is canonically 5 ft 11 in her heels, right? Let’s do a height comparison, if we pretend Eternatus can stand like a humanoid for a moment.

Oleana: uhhhh mr. Chairman whatcha got there?

Rose, with eternatus standing right behind him: a smoothie.

Jokes aside, i actually have some food for though on this:

Going off of my first idea of how Rose found eternatus, well he wouldn't have to sneak it in. would have reformed in the power plant's lab. The only transportation he'd have to deal with is moving eternatus to where he kept it in that giant orb.

If we use the second theory on how Rose found an eldritch god, well think about this: its a tired, injured pokemon, and he's a pokemon trainer. "This will be a piece of cake to catch". And at first it looks that way; eternatus doesn't put up a fight, the pokeball barely shakes before the tell-tale click of a successful catch is heard.

So Rose returns to the powerplant with no issues, there's nothing strange about a trainer carrying pokeballs on him. The issues don't start until hours later. Rose takes out the pokeball with his new catch to see that it is riddled with cracks. And its starting to shake. Rose manages to realize what wrong in time to chuck the pokeball before it explodes. At this point it's clear to Rose that he's going to need to come up with an unconventional way to contain this thing and fast. But until he can make that happen...

Rose goes through a lot of pokeballs in the time it takes to build a suitable containment.

…Wait. Wait a fucking minute.
