UB Burst, ReBurst, TRIGGERED STILL

I am happy with the way SM came out to be, but with USUM around the corner, I still find myself in shock that all the Pokémon ReBurst connections in SM were ALL coincidences!!
Granted, I've never read the manga and know it's target audience is a bit older, but cmon, it would've been sooo cool.
Z crystals legit look like Burst hearts, the whole blonde family have corresponding Ultra Beasts basically, AND LUSAMINE FRICKIN MORPHS W/ NIHILEGO IN THE END FOR CRYING OUTLOUD! GOLDEN OPPORTUNITY MISSED </3
Though Lusamine's morphed form throwing a Pokéball will forever trigger me, and ReBurst was kinda like a side thing, SM would have been the coolest thing if they included some of the glaringly similar aspects of the two series, but I digress.
Still excited for the new game, and maybe someday someone will make some crazy rom hack that'll tie the two worlds beautifully together, till then the hype train for USUM continues!!
