I have been resurrected just to fall right into Terribledadshipping hell. I love these two pathetic old men I love it when old men are in love hjjggjfhfhfhdhfhfehdh
I'm gonna quote myself off twt a little but I've been wondering about Ghetsis and Volo a bit (I wondered how to divide E Nomine songs on their playlists ok) and it hit me how they kinda are riffing off same vibes but in different way? I'll explain.
Like, both are tall as heck cultists with violent tendencies (both threatened people with physical violence which, yanno, is pretty rare) and backstabbing tendencies but both diverge on their cultism.
Ghetsis is more of realistic cult leader, greedy and aiming only for power for himself, in a down-to-earth manner of wanting to control and rule people in most literal ways, but he uses actual lore and digs up his own secrets and histories and relies on them for those goals.
Volo in the meantime is a cultist in a more esoteric way, digging up unknown knowledge with which he aims to topple god. It's also about power, but in ways more ethereal and less comprehensible for a casual human being.
And that made me realise something.
Ghetsis has very Satan-themed design which I won't elaborate on, yadda yadda, devil in music, we know the drill. But when I wondered about this Volo is more... Luciferian in his portrayal, if that makes sense? His rebellion against Arceus stems from his own unrevealed trauma and sense of betrayal, his design evokes light, his obsession with ruins is much more overt than Ghetsis' diggings (and even those were only portrayed through Zinzolin, and there is also question of Ghetsis bloodline which is another matter altogether) and could be see through enlightenment angle. You could argue his ultimate loss evokes both his pride (refusing to witness MC meet Arceus) while promising his own growth, research, desire to solve all the mysteries he can find. And Giratina, with its rebellion against Arceus.
