Hmm, Tita or Millium seem like the best Trails series references, yeah.

Raiden does keep the R pattern, the hypothetical MGS theming, and references her unusual skill with electricity.
To circle back to Trails, there's a couple more feminine R names to use there, although none are necessarily related to Excadril. "Ries" would be funny to me specifically because I'd have voted to name Nacli Kevin, though.
Moving away from the R motif, Cecile and Dorothy are good names for an unwitting agent of chaos. Vivi and Shirley are good names for more WITTING ones. Noel is a bit of a stretch but I don't know any named tank drivers in Trails, just one very good IFV driver. And of course Tita is a little girl with a rocket launcher who just keeps upgrading from there in firepower.

I vote we reserve Dorothy as a nickname in case we ever catch a Spinda 
ALSO, looking through Excadrill's old move tutor moves, it could apparently learn Magnet Rise back in the day lol

I do want to keep the R theme going for her name, raiden would be funny, tho this is a honkai refrence to me

And I want to keep the Trails theme (Roland counts. Barely). So unless we can compromise on Ries, Rixia, or Risette we're going to have another war on our hands.
There might be some minor characters to pick from for other R's, but these are the top three.

If we do keep the R theme going, I wonder if people in-quest or Mary herself will comment on it, it's kind of why I want to go for it.
"Mary, why do all your Pokémon's nicknames start with R?"
"I just think it's a neat letter.."
I enjoy very small quirks and bits of character like that.

Rixia does a little? Her primary weapon is the really huge sword, but her offhand gauntlet has... chain-claws? Her craft where she drags in enemies before slashing at them uses them.

Well now that I'm not on the verge of a heart attack, back to deep dives.
So, the Great Collapse. As Arvis has clarified elsewhere, this "the Great Collapse" was the dissolution of the First Paldean Empire, which is as far as I can tell is a loose equivalence (in time and effect) of the collapse of the Western Roman Empire in real world history. Arvis has also clarified that there was a different, more apocalyptic Collapse around 3000 years ago (placing it in the equivalent of the end of Real Earth Europe's Bronze Age). This is kind of splitting up a single Trails event - also called the Great Collapse - into two, presumably to fit in more history. In Zemuria, the Great Collapse that ended around 1200 years prior to the games was the end of super-advanced, Atlantis-like civilizations that dominated the continent, and the eventual genesis of the modern nations after a lengthy period known as the Middle Ages or Dark Ages, depending on translator. The Great Collapse discussed here seems to be primarily the latter, so I'll focus on that rather than going over any bullshit about Goddess-given miracles misused by mankind, or any Ultimate Weapons that may or may not have been fired in Bronze Age conflicts.
Anyway more pertinently, Heimdallr (Mesagoza's Trails equivalent) was a depopulated shithole because a big evil dragon moved in. Specifically, the Dark Dragon Zoro-Agruga, which rather than a "real" dragon was an extraplanar being manifested because of curse bullshit and vaguely related to the Holy Beast--...........Christ am I gonna have to explain Holy Beasts? Short version: immortal demigods associated with the goddess-granted super artifacts known as Sept-Terrions and who always seem to turn out to be someone or something unexpected.
Suffice to say I think the relevant point here is that I bet there was some nasty Legendary Pokémon or another camping in Mesagoza during the Great Collapse or early Dark Ages, possibly one or more of the Treasures of Ruin, who were eventually evicted to restore the city. Zoro-Agruga was dispatched historically, for once, by an Erebonian Emperor not named Dreichels, although not without serious cost. The Mesagozan Kingdom here likely has a similarly interesting story in how the city was saved and restored, but of course, that never makes it into the textbooks.
Hm...the "cold steel" Treasure of Ruin is associated with Elise's homeland...yeah guys I don't think we're gonna be the ones catching Chien-Pao.
Also interesting that the Principality was Marinedo and the modern city is Porto Marinada. I assume they're related, anyway - and it's interesting that the language has shifted in the time when the Portugal equivalent is controlled by the Spain equivalent.
And also another somewhat of a divergence from Trails - Emperor Dreichels re-united an Erebonia that had been divided relatively recently by a succession crisis spiraling into civil war. Emperor Rodrigo was re-uniting the core of the First Paldean Empire that had been divided into various fiefdoms since its collapse. Something to think about.
Anyway, Leaf's feedback.
Mariana is predictably an open book. Our high CHRM doesn't translate into a poker face even a little, thanks to our tendency to panic. That's less relevant early in a Pokémon career when there's less information to be read, but it could be a problem going on if we don't address our emotional issues - remembering we're not just going to be battling for fun or glory in this quest.
The more direct callout of our panicking tendency is apt, as is our being too harsh on ourself. Mariana thinks Leaf is going easy on us here, but what she's not comprehending is that needless self-criticism literally makes us worse at battling than if we could bracket that self-loathing and not let it overwhelm our good sense. "Stop being so hard on yourself" isn't mollifying, it's actual tactical advice. Maybe Leaf can elaborate on that for our dense ass later.
Dreepy's learnset is limited yeah no shit Karen he learns four moves in the game before evolving. Honestly I think the play here is just to make him very good at the two strategies he can do and worry about diversity from other team members. Even Dragapult is a steamroller or strategic bomber, not a jack of all trades.
And it's good to know we're good with Pokémon and that Leaf appreciates that - we're getting on raw empathy and compassion what Erika's gotten out of a lifelong bond and Nemona's got out of Olympian team training.
And finally, "catch a new Pokémon" is something we've finally taken care of. Drilbur ain't going to be much less predictable than Dreepy, but sometimes the best strategy is grinding the enemy to dust. Adding Renne to our battle team through a few more Bond actions should be all we need through fourth badge, as Leaf suggests, especially as she's inherently someone who adds a ton of variety to our strategy.
And now we meet another canon Scarlet/Violet character, possibly the only person at the Academy with a worse "parent" than Ostia (well okay Theodora and Manuel might have a claim too). Arven plays the role in S/V of "friend who sometimes fights you and sometimes fights by your side" as well as being an unintentional comedy duo with Nemona, two people who are utterly incapable of understanding what the hell the other is on about (he's not even into Pokémon battling. He's on the Humanities track). Explaining his entire deal would mean explaining the entire "Path of Legends" storyline from S/V, the story climax, and frankly a bunch of other stuff. The relevant point now is that this is a man who was quite literally raised by his dog and he is therefore not......socialized. Hence the jerkery.
And if he asks for help making sandwiches or medicine, for the love of Deer Dad, help him. Even if the "help" is something insane like beating up giant Pokémon - frankly, no need to wait around for Juliana for that one. He might not come up with the idea until further in the timeline, though, even if we do Bond up with him.
Also man Ostia really doesn't get enough food.
Arven's name comes from the scientific name for wild mint, Mentha arvensis. In Japanese he's named "Pepper", after "Peppermint", but presumably English-speakers would find that confusing.
We also see, as we're about to get the punchline in a few seconds, that culture shock on eating Pokémon cuts both ways - the Andosin don't even have mundane animals, so all of their animal goods come from Pokémon period. Mary probably didn't know what a pigeon was before getting to Mesagoza (and is probably confused as to why they look so little like Pidgeys), let alone eaten cow beef or chicken eggs.
Actually maybe pigeons don't exist. I can see them being outcompeted by Route 1 Birds.
Anyway, awkward culture shock moment, but I'm just gonna leave this here:
Also, Arven referring back to his main motivation: healing his dogparent. His only idea thus far has been feeding him different medicines, and I have to admit, there's certain Pokémon products I could see him trying now that we've inspired him. Hopefully he's responsible with this, or at least find a Protagonist to drag along if he decides to go hunting for Rhyhorn horn or something.
I know we made our choice in votes, but where does this sense of obligation to do this specifically come from? Is it just a manifestation of our sense of obligation toward everything and everyone but ourselves? Where did that come from? These are my favorite read-and-find-out questions so far. I have theories, obviously, but this is what I want to see Mariana unpack from herself through this subplot.
This training vignette is also the diegetic explanation for Roland learning new moves by mastering old ones - in this case, he's spent so much time training his ability to temporarily boost his speed with a quick attack that he's worked out how to just put himself in an indefinite state of increased speed (Agility).
Anyway I'm not gonna do task votes, as before, but I am gonna go over the bond point options for the week. I forget if I did that the first time but I ain't going back to that.
Pokémon literacy has come up a few times (most recently with Pawniard's description mentioning he already knows how). I guess it's relevant since most Pokémon are intelligent enough to understand language, and writing is useful for communicating to them. We also see some Pokémon like Wiggly communicating through written language themselves, which is potentially a hugely useful tool.
Espurr I'll cover in the next update since that was a pretty big deal.
Also unsurprisingly Mariana doesn't care about class politics.
Ostia and Erika we either did or there's not much interesting for me to contribute (other than poor Ostia deciding not to invite us out for food this week).
Even odds she's standing in for Claire Rieveldt as "sympathetic personal sidekick to the supervillain chancellor", imo.
Rika comes from "Paprika", and in every language she's named for some form of spicy pepper - Chili in Japanese (not to be confused with the Unova Gym Leader triplet who's named Chili in English) and, in Spanish, Cayena after the Spanish for Cayenne peppers, hence the last name here. Incidentally, one of the Great Houses in Trails of Cold Steel is the House Cayenne - there's probably not a relation here though, as all the Great Houses in Paldea seem to be named after their main holdings. Funny coincidence, though.
My favorite part about taking study actions is the exposition dump, obviously.
So, the Great Collapse. As Arvis has clarified elsewhere, this "the Great Collapse" was the dissolution of the First Paldean Empire, which is as far as I can tell is a loose equivalence (in time and effect) of the collapse of the Western Roman Empire in real world history.

The Mesagozan Kingdom here likely has a similarly interesting story in how the city was saved and restored, but of course, that never makes it into the textbooks.
And here we see the origins of the modern provinces and Great Houses of Paldea. Incidentally, it looks like the Cascaraffas are likely the oldest and most prestigious of the major noble houses, since their seat used to be an independent kingdom ("Arch Kingdom" - the only way a landlord can get more pretentious is to stick Arch onto the front of his title). This paragraph is also a much more pertinent shoutout to the Treasures of Ruin, which even Mariana ICly picks up on, with the obvious implication that the Margrave of Glaseado controlled (or was controlled by) Chien-Pao (which would also explain why it's sealed in the Andosin region as opposed to the game, where its shrine is way over in the west, in the mountainous region between Cortondo and the Cascaraffa-Asado-Marinada area). Glaseado outright collapsing explains somewhat why it's a different province in modern Paldea - "Glaseado-Montenevera", and ruled by a nicer and presumably more recently-minted noble family in the Montenixes.
Hm...the "cold steel" Treasure of Ruin is associated with Elise's homeland...yeah guys I don't think we're gonna be the ones catching Chien-Pao.
Also interesting that the Principality was Marinedo and the modern city is Porto Marinada. I assume they're related, anyway - and it's interesting that the language has shifted in the time when the Portugal equivalent is controlled by the Spain equivalent.
And also another somewhat of a divergence from Trails - Emperor Dreichels re-united an Erebonia that had been divided relatively recently by a succession crisis spiraling into civil war. Emperor Rodrigo was re-uniting the core of the First Paldean Empire that had been divided into various fiefdoms since its collapse. Something to think about.
Also no details here because Mariana cleverly doesn't have to think about it and doesn't think it's interesting. I bet it is, though, and it's at least confirmation of why the Legendary Knife Cat is in the northeast.
I don't have interesting commentary here, I just want to appreciate Mariana being a responsible rehabilitator even if she's got zero training on how to deal with traumatized Pokémon.
You can do it, Leaf. You can maintain the bare minimum effort expected of a teacher.
Anyway, Leaf's feedback.

Arven's name comes from the scientific name for wild mint, Mentha arvensis. In Japanese he's named "Pepper", after "Peppermint", but presumably English-speakers would find that confusing.
So something that's been in Trails since Sky, and achieved its "modern" form in the second arc (Zero/Azure), is a fairly extensive cooking mechanic where you combine ingredients (which can be anything from storebought milk and salt to jelly made out of slime monsters) to a recipe, and the "quality" - Superb, Regular, "Peculiar", or Unique in CS - of the dish is randomly rolled based on the character who did the cooking, with every party member having different aptitudes for different dishes. It's a fun little bit of characterization, especially in Cold Steel where all your party members have a truly unique dish or two based on their particular tastes, like Jusis cooking a dish from his childhood or Alisa having a fancy cookie only she knows how to make. The idea of "cook to recipe, then try to make something unique" reminded me of the idea, so I decided to go on a tangent about it.
We also see, as we're about to get the punchline in a few seconds, that culture shock on eating Pokémon cuts both ways - the Andosin don't even have mundane animals, so all of their animal goods come from Pokémon period. Mary probably didn't know what a pigeon was before getting to Mesagoza (and is probably confused as to why they look so little like Pidgeys), let alone eaten cow beef or chicken eggs.
Actually maybe pigeons don't exist. I can see them being outcompeted by Route 1 Birds.
You know, I'm not sure if we tattled on Erika's little Sneering Imperialist moment or if she and Ostia have started talking enough about their mutual friendship with us that she confessed. I like to think they're bonding over "what the fuck is wrong with this girl we both immediately cared for".
Anyway, awkward culture shock moment, but I'm just gonna leave this here:
Also, Arven referring back to his main motivation: healing his dogparent. His only idea thus far has been feeding him different medicines, and I have to admit, there's certain Pokémon products I could see him trying now that we've inspired him. Hopefully he's responsible with this, or at least find a Protagonist to drag along if he decides to go hunting for Rhyhorn horn or something.
Good advice from Dawn overall (which explains why she spent several years grinding fights with the Pokémon fandom's collective Freudian nightmare) in that fighting stronger opponents makes you stronger. Especially in this system where we still get XP if we lose. And we're gonna lose a lot.
We've gotten more explanation on this recently, but the continuing divide between "normal" trainers and "Academy" trainers in Paldea is interesting in that it's almost an extra dimension to the class conflict - as far as Pokémon trainers are concerned, born privileges are one thing, but getting special privileges at Pokémon battling because you got into a special school? Pay to win bullshit.
.......why, though. Why do we "have to"?
I know we made our choice in votes, but where does this sense of obligation to do this specifically come from? Is it just a manifestation of our sense of obligation toward everything and everyone but ourselves? Where did that come from? These are my favorite read-and-find-out questions so far. I have theories, obviously, but this is what I want to see Mariana unpack from herself through this subplot.
I should start a tally for this. It can go next to the "Emperor Rodrigo namedrop" tally.
Vitamins have come up a few times so it's worth mentioning in one of these writeups that this is a reference to Pokémon game mechanics. I'm not going to do a full writeup on Effort Values but suffice to say that there's two ways to improve your Pokémon's base stats/per level stat growth. One is through battling Pokémon - specific Pokémon for specific stats. The other ways are buying (expensive in Pokédollars) vitams (one per each stat) or in some generations by doing Super Training (expensive in needing real world time and specific lategame resources). The nod to Vitamins here is that they're a way to legitimately make your Pokémon healthier and stronger as part of their training regimen, but gated behind having lots of spare money - say, being a noble or the heiress to a major consumer electronics manufacturer, or having some form of sponsorship to cover expenses like real athletes tend to.
Time limits aren't a thing in the Pokémon games and I don't...remember if they're a thing in any of the adaptations I'm familiar with. They make sense as a logistical limit on official battles, and are a means of a match ending in a draw (which is much rarer in the games than this quest for obvious reasons).
This training vignette is also the diegetic explanation for Roland learning new moves by mastering old ones - in this case, he's spent so much time training his ability to temporarily boost his speed with a quick attack that he's worked out how to just put himself in an indefinite state of increased speed (Agility).
I do love our lazy little noodle and want good things for him. Hopefully he'll have a fun match with our new buddy in the next update.
Anyway I'm not gonna do task votes, as before, but I am gonna go over the bond point options for the week. I forget if I did that the first time but I ain't going back to that.
NSA: Never Stop Adopting.
Pokémon literacy has come up a few times (most recently with Pawniard's description mentioning he already knows how). I guess it's relevant since most Pokémon are intelligent enough to understand language, and writing is useful for communicating to them. We also see some Pokémon like Wiggly communicating through written language themselves, which is potentially a hugely useful tool.
Espurr I'll cover in the next update since that was a pretty big deal.
Atticus being Atticus. I think the hint here - that we don't know what he's an apprentice of - may be implying that he's an apprentice ninja, rather than an apprentice weaver/tailor as I've been assuming. That's not really a thing in S/V, but random people turning out to be ninjas has definitely happened in Trails before (although not quite as often as turning out to be spies).
I'm judging the thread for not hanging out with Jacinto more.
Also unsurprisingly Mariana doesn't care about class politics.
Hmm...wonder what she's been up to to make her exhausted? Regardless of how she's playing her role, she's definitely moonlighting doing something. Did anyone else notice that she was tagging along with Elise to the Ruins in the social encounter on FE1 Tuesday?
Oof. Can't argue though. Anyway, as stated, Arven has a very specific personal quest, and it involves feeding a Pokémon. He's also an in for plot later, so we don't exactly want to ignore him...even if he's probably lower priority than our Team and our Class.
I'm going to get into some details later during Deergate, but I think this was the first official namedrop of the Eight Leaves One Blade school, an element that seems to have been imported directly from the Trails series. Essentially a school of magical katana swordsmanship developed in Fantasy Asia, it got imported to the Fantasy Western Europe setting thanks to its traveling master apprenticing a bunch of weebs, including at least one major character from each arc of the series so far - including Estelle Bright's father (and his former army subordinate, the villain of ToCS1), Arios MacLain (Crossbell's dollar store version of Cassius and rival/mentor/it's complicated to the Zero/Azure heroes) and of course, Rean Schwarzer (with his sister Elise supposedly picking up some principles for self-defense. This is never relevant). The fact that this fantasy kenjutsu, complete with causality-breaking super attacks, is still a thing pretty much directly in a Pokémon setting is very interesting to me.
Ostia and Erika we either did or there's not much interesting for me to contribute (other than poor Ostia deciding not to invite us out for food this week).
We caught a later part of this Elite Four examination, but it's worth noting. In addition to explaining the schedule of what I'm gonna call the Summer Championship Series, it's our first namedrop of Rika, lesbian thirst trap extraordinaire and member of the Elite Four. A Ground-type specialist, her ace is Clodsire, marking her as a woman of impeccable taste. She's also responsible for administering the quiz portion of the Champion Assessment in the game, although that doesn't seem to be a thing here.
Even odds she's standing in for Claire Rieveldt as "sympathetic personal sidekick to the supervillain chancellor", imo.
Rika comes from "Paprika", and in every language she's named for some form of spicy pepper - Chili in Japanese (not to be confused with the Unova Gym Leader triplet who's named Chili in English) and, in Spanish, Cayena after the Spanish for Cayenne peppers, hence the last name here.
