- After the Lombaxes were sent to a different dimension, Ratchet's father sent him to the Solana Galaxy or more precisely planet Veldin out of all other planets out there. Why Veldin?
The Lombaxes lived on planet Fastoon in the Polaris Galaxy. Planet Veldin has a very similar environment, a desert planet. It looks like Veldin has some Lombax technology around the place, as if research was being done and suddenly got abandoned.

Veldin has symilar climate to Fastoon, looking at lombaxes, they are genetically adapted to desert enviroent. Their colours would be a great camuflage in Africa-like landscape (also their fur has light colors so Sun doesn't affect them that much) their big ears are good for cooling blood (like fenek or desert cottontail) in high temperatures and their fur is a good protection from cold, desert nights and bugs that are really common in warm climate. Also their big feet help walking on sand. Even the giant eyebrows help sweat not to get into his eyes on this giant sauna of a planet.
That might have played a role in choosing new place for Ratchet, his faher wanted him to live on a planet symilar to home here he would feel comfortable.
Poke GODAMN i just felt i was reading a national geographic article!
Poke the most scientific answer Ever ! But i agree on everything.
Maybe Orvus and Kaden search for a Planet very similar to Fastoon, but FAR AWAY from the Polaris Galaxy.
Poke don’t forget their tails, lomboxs tails would be good for balance on rocks
Poke Best reply ever. This needs to get pinned. 😊 I agree with everything you said about our furry friends.
Loved your technical/scientific response! Now what about Angela Cross? She most likely lived on Greblin for some time, where it's freezing cold. Now you're saying their fur doesn't completely absorb sun rays due to their color. So going with that, maybe Lombaxes can live in cold climates as well.
The frogs raised ratchet XD
It all makes sense!
What 😂
LMAAOOOO
@@princkleminckle1159 3 years this comment was lmao
@Dandy Crow people still replying to this lol
Ratchet was 15 in the first game, and was 17 in the third game, cause in that racing game of Jak it says on Ratchet's profile he is 18 by Deadlocked, and he was born the year 5339 and the first game is set in 5354 making him 15.
I know, he's 15 years old, if he was 17 years old that would be too old for him in the first game. I think he's supposed to be 15 years old in the first game.
Yeah man your right, he was 15 in the first game, that makes sense.
I dunno heheh! On FB, someone at IG confirmed he was 17 in the first game.
creaturebelowthedeck.tumblr.com/post/148648579394/confirmed-ratchet-was-17-in-the-first-game
They're wrong, only the company would be able to confirm it.
This is the kind of detective work I appreciate.
As desert creatures, Lombaxes would naturally favor hot, arid planets as oppose to cold or temperate ones. Its all about their adaptions to thrive in harsh dry canyons and roam sandy dunes. After all, if you look at a little rodent call Jerboa (super weird looking critters), it looks like a mini real world (but disfigured) Lombax that hops. Heck it even has fuzz on its back paw pads just like Lombaxes whose soles are cover in fur to protect from the baking sun.
I think Lombaxes had certainly came in contact with Veldin. After all, many people in the Solana Galaxy knows what a Lombax is and thus never questions Ratchet's species. I like to believe that a small population of these highly intelligent, anthropomorphic animals had once colonized Veldin in the distant past but were forcefully taken back to Fastoon to fight in the war. As such Veldin was left to the citizens of Solana to repopulate the now deserted planet. Among them being Ratchet's possible future caretaker, Grim. By the time the war was over, Veldin was already claim by other creatures.
Veldin could've just been a former Lombax territory since most people would prefer living in lush, lively worlds like Kerwan or Novalis where the climate is more comfortable.
And yeah, I believe Grim was the one raised Ratchet and eventually past away, either by illness or tragic accident like a ship crash, natural disasters, freak accidents, break ins, etc. Ratchet was just too young and helpless to live by himself at the point of his arrival. His caretaker probably died when he was still young though, forcing Ratchet to toughen up and survive the streets on his own. That would explain his wild and rebellious nature in the first game. He was brought up like that because its the only way to survive the harsh reality of the universe on his own.
I always love your replies thank you! The first war between the Lombaxes & Craigmites happened eons ago right? So it actually makes sense to think that the Lombaxes did leave it in order to aid in that first war.
VTNVIVI Aw you're welcome. I'm glad to support your amazing videos.
I always had the idea of Veldin being a Lombax planet since A Crack in Time. I mean why not right? It just seems much more then a mere coincidence for Kaden to pick a particular desert planet in another solar system to send his son away.
Right! The war happened a long time ago and during that time the Fastoon government would've requested the aid of their brethren over at Veldin. It was said that neither armies on the battlefield were winning, so the Lombaxes of Polaris must had gone desperate and frustrated. They message their brothers over at Solana about the situation and ask for more support to which they agree. Of coarse they would help their fellow Lombaxes over at Polaris! So they would've packed up and move back to Fastoon for military training and recruitments. That leaves Veldin deserted and open for habitation. After the battle was won years later and Veldin was taken over by Solana citizens, they had no need to return to Veldin anymore and decided to just remain on their planet of origin. Then years later the second war happen, and as in reverse to the previous war, Veldin now has a Lombax living in its canyons again whereas Fastoon became deserted. That's how I always see it.
This is late but like, I came up with a similar concept about Grim passing away before Ratchet met Clank for my fanfic skdkdjddjdk
Ratchet's origin story on Veldin has always been a total mystery and that's something I'd like insomniac to elaborate upon in future games. So many unanswered questions, they still haven't explained why Clank's hardware was built in a robotic factory in the Solana galaxy. What purpose did Orvus have to send Clank's software to Quartu? Did he know about Drek's plans? Or did he know that he would bump into Ratchet? Crossed fingers that they'll bail on the reimagine games and continue with the old story.
Ah! The Zoni see into the future and made sure what they saw happened. That explains Clank well technically, Orvus wanted a being capable of defending the great clock aka senior caretaker. The Zoni can't live long in Ratchet's dimension, Orvus wanted someone who could. If they continue with the old story, I would love to see young Ratchet through flashbacks :D
I wanna see Young Ratchet flashbacks in the next game.
That'd be cute!
Same that would be super cool to see what Ratchet's childhood was like.
pls rift apart ,,,,
The only thing I can think of is Ratchet's lombax nature. They are pretty much alien cats after all, maybe he had natural feral survival instincts since he was a baby. I dunno, just a thought. Maybe you're just not supposed to know. Yet...
Ask yourself this, why did they come up with Grimroth? Someone who raised him. Yeah, Lombaxes are naturally intellectual, but Ratchet was still a baby.
True
True felines are born with natural survival instincts, When there babies they watch there parents so they can lean and have protective instants. Cats can even go several days without food.
@@thespyrofans6924 but ratchet had no parents to watch, sure basic survival instincts can get animals to survive in the real world, however in ratchet's universe there are so many unique factors that we rarely see in our world. Extreme weather conditions, apex predictors that would destroy any predictor we have on our planet, and you expect a baby lombax to compete and survive against all that without having any guiding figure to help them learn faster.
Are lombax babies able to identify what food is, what's dangerous to eat, what is suitable shelter, that certain gases are toxic, what animals are dangerous - where the animal's territory is without it being an early game over etc. All that plus the fact that Ratchet as an infant would be as physically able as he is when older.
Even Tarzan needed help from gorillas to survive his infancy - and he is a human, the "smartest" animal on our planet - which wouldn't even happen in real life either.
It's hard to say how realistic it is to say that he could survive such a situation without any evidence of what lombax infancy is like, however it is clear that Ratchet wouldn't of survived the war in his current state, which is why he was sent away.
Does ratchet remember his infancy years at all? If so it might make it slightly more plausible.
I thought this was going to be about why Drec chose Veldin's orbit, for his new planet.
I honestly would like to see something where it goes between Ratchet, Kaden, and a younger version of Ratchet for a story. That would make it fairly interesting and answer a few questions.
I'd love Ratchet's backstory, how did he raise himself? Not counting re-imagining.
‘Confirmed 17’ pretty sure it got theory busted that he was 15 due to the devs forgetting something or other and in cutscenes of time between events and between 1 and 3 was roughly a little over 3 years, he was 15 in the first game
Edit: if I’m wrong there then I’m wrong, I think a few people did the working out a couple years back now. But if I’m wrong I’ll stick my hands up and admit that.
One of the developer's said 15 or 17. There is seemingly no concreate answer.
What about the possibility of Ratchet being raised in an orphanage there ? Sure the place has a low population but I bet it still have important buildings like hospitals and such there.
Also what if the age of adulthood in the R&C universe is different from ours. That could explain why he was alone at the beginning of R&C1 (besides the writers not thinking that far ahead yet) it was that he was finally old enough to live on his own.
That could be very likely as well! And you're very right, IG didn't think of other Lombaxes at first. That explains the whole mess with Angela. Theories are theories, and of course there's the realistic side of things. But, it's fun :P
indeed they are :)
There doesn't seem to be a civilization there, but Ratchet comes across very social. I don't think Insomniac thought too deep about it, to be honest.
I was thinking this... Ratchet could Be the real name of our protagonist... I mean... If Kaden know well the Solana Galaxy thanks to his friendship with Orvus, maybe he wrote on a piece of paper "this is Ratchet, the Only Lombax in the Galaxy. Take care of him, please".
And so Tachion lies during the final boss battle of ToD (although Clank think that Tachion Said the Truth).
I can't imagine that the protagonist of 13 games could change his name. It's Just Crazy, so i believe Ratchet is his real name.
BUT, There is a possibility that Ratchet is a nick-name, as in reality, "Ratchet" is the name of a tool of "ironmonger's shop".
For Who grow up Ratchet in the classic games... We don't know: maybe Orvus oversees on Ratchet... But no idea On this.
But It Is a good idea to think that Orvus predicted the future... Maybe he was already conscious that he is going to build Clank and that Ratchet and Clank Will become friend as Orvus and Kaden were.
on Ratchet galaxy there's a part where the writer from the future series did answer some questions about the series. He said that they wanted to leave out Ratchet's real name in "A Crack in Time" for some reason. But yes we were supposed to know Ratchet's real name in "A Crack in Time"
I remember those questions! Made a video long time ago, don't watch it lolz.
Even if Ratchet's true name is revealed, I think he'd prefer going with Ratchet. After 13 games, I doubt they're going to switch his name like you said. Some have been saying Lombaxes have natural instincts, where they're capable of surviving on their own. Sure, but Ratchet I think was sent at a very young age, he still needed someone.
Where was it mentioned that Orvus & Kaden were friends?
Well I have a couple of thoughts as to why Ratchet was sent to Veldin. It is stated many times in the game series that Veldin is a back water planet. It is one that not a lot of people know about as when Ratchet tells someone he's from Veldin, they have no idea what planet he's talking about. The planet only became known because Ratchet became a hero. I do believe that Kaden knew of Veldin because of what you mentioned in the video. But I think Kaden was banking on the fact that Tachyon didn't know anything about Veldin. Which meant it was the safest place for Ratchet to go to get away from Tachyon. And it was clear that Tachyon didn't know about Veldin because he never thought to even look there from Ratchet until Ratchet made his name known. As to why Kaden didn't go with his son....well someone had to stay behind to distract Tachyon until everyone got away. Alistor even makes a mention to it when he tells Ratchet what really happened. Kaden stayed behind to distract Tachyon so everyone else could get away. Whether he was able to escape or Tachyon killed him, well....it's never confirmed that Tachyon killed Kaden so maybe there's a small chance. Of course this brings up the fact that the other Lombaxes were sent somewhere else. I think the way Kaden's thinking was that there was still a chance that the other Lombaxes could be found by Tachyon later on. He wanted to delay that as much as possible for Ratchet. so he decided to send Ratchet away to a back water planet in hopes that Tachyon wouldn't find him, at least until Ratchet could fight back against him. And it worked. Tachyon didn't find Ratchet until he was already a hero and was able to fight against him,. Of course that's just my thoughts on it. Could be wrong.
You bring up very interesting points!
0:23 - That always was the question back then until the movie came by with it's own answer; that being Grimroth.
0:27 - I will.
0:54 - Tachyon would probably notice a bunch of them fleeing but then again that would guarantee some to survive.
1:38 - They were technically mechanics in their own right so ...
2:27 - That could be the case, I agree with that.
3:28 - Oh yeah there is a bar! But then again that could be on a different planet since there were more of them taken at the time.
3:58 - They're toads. ;)
4:32 - That was J's Reviews' issue with the Future series overall, he didn't care about Ratchet's origin story and liked the charm that the classic games had back then with it's story.
4:52 - I liked it in the original better but that's just my opinion.
5:17 - Great to see those concept arts again. :D
5:26 - He was following the coordinates on that Infobot but if you were talking about why he couldn't land then maybe he ran out of fuel? :/
5:51 - So much of that didn't make sense to J's Reviews like why Orvus sent Clank there and the two most important people meeting on the fly like that. :P
6:59 - All he ever called him was "Lombax", maybe he didn't know his given name "Ratchet"? :/
7:23 - Maybe? :/ :/
7:40 - I believe Size Matters is but with Secret Agent Clank ... :/
8:07 - Maybe they added him in to help answer the question and who knows? Maybe they have more plans for him in then next game. ;)
9:01 - That would be a funny situation to see! I would definitely be up for that! XD
9:19 - I personally believe that Insomniac Games (along with Rainmaker) wanted to answer that with the movie by adding Grimroth but that's just my opinion. :/
9:33 - Always happy to watch. :)
The 2016 Ratchet and Clank reimagining and the movie aren't canon, so I wouldn't take Grimroth as a good answer for who raised Ratchet.
Given the similarities between Fastoon and Veldin, it makes me wonder if it was just an unspoken part of the backstory of R&C that Veldin was essentially the Lombax homeworld prior to the new lore introduced in the Future games. Just one of those quirks of the Ratchet games that goes unexplained, like Clank and his stream of ladybots, but the devs just agree that it's what the score was. Maybe just saw no point putting it in a game till the Future games actually focused intensely on Ratchet and Clank's personal backstories.
But when we start getting into aspects of the story like Azimuth and Kaden it begins to feel more and more like the Future games saw the originals as troublesome baggage rather than as part of a cohesive universe where these stories were taking place. Hence the holes and stretches in the lore between the old games and new games. A facet that the new Remake universe appears to be emulating.
Thanks for sharing :O
They should have included this in the movie the lombax planet being destroyed or they should include kaden and alister oh the next game and movie should be tools of destruction mixed with a crack in time
Yeah, they should've a small scene.
VTNVIVI is it true the next game is a going commando reamagianing or is the title going to be changed and are they gonna stick with the same story as the last game or stick with the original going commando story??? Just curious vivi
No, I don't think they should've. It had nothing to do with Drek's scheme and would've made the movie feel even more unfocused. Better to save it for a potential sequel that actually addresses Ratchet's back story.
Insomniac Games doesn't even know where to take the series next. Options:
1. Post ITN (Lombaxes)
2. Post ITN (New Adventure)
3. Post Re-imagining (Going Commando re-imagined)
4. Post Re-imagining (GC + elements of UYA)
Ahh! If a sequel were to happen that is, which will never. You have a point and I agree.
I realy wish we now If Kedan and Orvis did meet.
The reason why kaden sent ratchet to veldin instead bringing him to the lombaxe dimension because he knew one day his son will stop tachyon and save the galaxy plus your right about one thing the lombaxes did lived on veldin long ago thats why you can see so much technology they made
Hmm....I mean if all Lombaxes went to a different dimension, why wouldn't Ratchet as well? When the Lombaxes left, did they care what havoc Tachyon would bring to their former dimension? I feel as though Ratchet remaining here was due to different circumstances.
Keep up the videos vivi! I love these theories!! You're the best!
Aww thank you so much!
Veldin probably was a lombax planet because the main Veldin towers in UYA were officially designed (by IG) after the shape of lombax ears. (Of course let's not forget that it's because back in 2005 there was not backstory about Ratchet and his species' past, and Veldin was most likely the homeworld of the lombax race)
Ahh I see!
That explains why drek is trying to destroy veldin HE WAS TRYING TO WIPE OUT LOMBAXES
It could be instinct maybe Kaden gave him tips on how to survive or maybe there is a Lombax gene we don't know about i dunno
All Lombaxes were know to be smart. Even if so, Ratchet was still a baby. Think of why they brought in Grimroth.
Awesome video VTNVIVI keep up the videos VTNVIVI amazing voice of ratchet in the video lol
Thanks :D
I can't wait more your videos. I really love your videos :-)
:)
This theory is awesome Vivi and I truly hope that this theory comes into a later installment however it might not be possible as you predicted due to the new ps4 game
Glad you enjoyed it!
Wait a minute! What if Veldin was a mining site for the Lobaxes? That was probably where they found Tachyon, right? Tachyon might have not known about this place because he was never told about it! Right? No?
Lombaxes mined trillium on planet Zaurik. So Tachyon was most likely found on Zaurik.
VTNVIVI No he was discovered as an egg on the Kreeli Comet by Lombax Miners according to IRIS.
Of for f**s sake! Can't we just protest to InsomniacGames to make the final R&C game with Ratchet reuniting with his race?.
I have a feeling they had thought about the Lombaxes ;)
Yes thank you I was hoping you would do a video for this:)☺☺☺
No problem!
It was not an industry standard back then to populate levels with unnecessary NPCs (the ones who would not give you missions). So, Veldin seems deserted because Insomniac did not care to put any of the supposed inhabitants in the actual level.
You can assume they hid after mildly terrifying robots invaded.
Now we're looking at this from a lore/theory side of things, not from the realistic obvious side.
Ratchet crashed his ship because he wasn't an amazing pilot and his ship was SHIT.
There, explained it. Do not overthink.
Ratchet was raised by spooky ghosts. Which is why adult him is not afraid of ghosts.
Haha, yes apart from the Zoni theory, Ratchet was piloting for the first time and crashed. The way IG worded it, ''why he crashed it on Novalis'', I mean they were going to Novalis, he didn't decide to crash it, it just happened due to his lack of experience. Although Zoni theory sounds far-fetched, think of how they're able to spread their energy across the galaxy, that lightning strike at Quartu in the re-imagining is a nice visual representation.
I think he picked Veldin just because it has a similar climate and environment to Fastoon. Best place to stick is son is somewhere similar to home, right?
As for who raised him? No clue. Maybe cyclophic monkeys a la Quark.
That why I like ratchet and clank series it leave so many unanswered questions and keep being in info like the nether dimension and zoni dimension, the next game is might to tell us about Rachet origin and his real name or what the zoni dimension look like maybe tell us captain qwark origin and can you do a video exploring the three timelines the ps2 version timeline the furture series timeline and the reboot timeline plz
Who would've thought R&C would have so many questions right? Now your question about the timelines, the future saga is in the same timeline as the original. Now, we have two timelines.
devs: hey, I drew this planet and I think it looks really good. let's use it!
VTNVIVI: ok... Hear me out!
Hehehe
Incredible theory makes sense!!!
Thanks dude.
VTNVIVI Yea keep it up!
Please talk about where were the galactic rangers (UYA) and the starship Phoenix in ratchet and clank 1
That'd be cool!
VTNVIVI also there is something that I have been trying to figure out what happened to the starship Phoenix after deadlock was it destroyed by dreadzone or was it recovered there doesn't seem to be an actual answer. the only hint I have found is one of the pirates in tools of destruction talking about the Phoenix and Sasha
imagine a ratchet prequel where you play as kaden
YES
GUYS LIKE VIVI'S VIDEO CAMON 9 LIKES AND LIKE 38VIEWS!!!!????
Awesome.
Thanks!
Answer to Who Raised Ratchet: Himself
Simple and clean.
lol
In classic most likely himself and maybe the pod he was in maybe crashed or lost control then bam veldin VELDIN
Ratchet was very young when he landed on Veldin, I don't think he was capable of doing that.
Well when ever your orphan it's pretty munch live and fight for your food or die, my theory is maybe the toads around that place helped him collect food for him. I mean there were a lot of toads around Ratchet's place.
I hope they show some scenes of young Ratchet
That'd be sweet and adorable.
VTNVIVI agreed after I saw the movie this has been on my mind for a very long, how come Insomniac didn't tell details or show scenes of Ratchet's childhood and I think Insomniac should come up with something like for the next game whether the next game will be based on the original or the re-imagining? But hopefully something like that will happen sometime in the future of the series.
It only makes sense for Kaden to Send Ratchet to veldin, who knows maybe ratchet did end up having to raise himself, maybe not all Lombaxs are the same🤔 maybe ratchet could be different from the other Lombaxs that Kaden believed he could survive on his own just a leap of Faith
I wonder if this will ever get explored IF they continue with original timeline.
First and im so excited for sly cooper movie and tv show and jax and daxter movie.
Sly movie is on hold, and the jak and daxter movie I think will not happen sorry mate :P
Oh and what do you mean it is on hold.
They say the TV show will happen first and movie second.
My headcanon is that it's a case of best laid plans going awry. Kaden may have wanted to get his family safely through the portal, but due to his duties as guardian of the Dimensionator he had to make sure everyone else made it through first. However when he discovered his wife and child were not among those that escaped he went back only to discover his family's house had collapsed from Tachyon's assault and Ratchet's mother died shielding her son from the roof caving in. Not a very dramatic death, but a meaningful one. Kaden may have also been forced to smash the only Dimensionator to stop Tachyon's forces following the lombaxes: choosing the many over the few and thus having to find another way to save Ratchet. It's also possible Kaden died stalling for time while the rocket launched.
Veldin having lombax technology is interesting as I really just assumed that Kaden set the rocket to send Ratchet to the furthest inhabited planet on whatever fuel it had. Fastoon and Veldin having similar climates just being the universe's ironic sense of humor.
It's possible that Ratchet grew up in an orphanage or the one who raised him died before the series began. I can easily see a caretaker at an orphanage saying: "I can't give him the same toys as the other children, he just immediately starts trying to take them apart."
Lombaxes are naturally curious when it comes to technology, but Ratchet didn't know how to build a ship, he was using a step by step guide from Gadgetron's help desk girl. He crashed on Novalis because he was a rookie pilot who had never flown before and didn't know how to slow down or land properly. How he survived the crash is a better question.
Clank said he detected no lie in Tachyon's voice so he might have known it. I'm more curious as to why Alister didn't seem to know Ratchet's true name being Kaden's best friend and all. I guess Insomniac didn't want to chance coming up with a name we didn't like.
Also can someone translate this? It's really well drawn Japanese fancomic of Ratchet's childhood:
www.pixiv.net/member_illust.php?mode=manga&illust_id=59421245
Very cool theory you have, on Ratchet galaxy there's a part where the writer from the future series did answer some questions about the series, He said that they whated to leave out Ratchet's real name in "A Crack in Time" for some reason. But yes we were supposed to know Ratchet's real name in "A Crack in Time" Which would have been amazing. As for my theory I think Ratchet did have some survival instants, I mean he is a feline after all. So he would probably know how to hunt for food. Also he maybe have some help from the toads, the toads could have also help him collect some food for him. I mean there were a lot of toads around Ratchet's place.
Weird. TJ Fixman could still have revealed the name in the interview, but maybe he thought Insomniac would change it later on. I don't see what the harm is in knowing it now.
If the toads helped him then the first level is a huge betrayal on Ratchet's part.
Yeah to get more into detail, Kaden was the keeper of the device and made sure it didn't end up in the wrong hands. Like you said, he made sure everyone made it through first. He refused to leave his family behind while also keeping the device with him. He was too late, his wife was dead and Kaden hid the dimensionator, he could have been friends with Apogee and told him to relocate it on Jasindu...but it's theorized that Angela and Apogee used the device to flee, you hid it later??? Also, the device can be taken with you as we was with Tachyon in Tools. Therefore, Kaden could have still escaped with his son and take the device with him... There's something mysterious here...
Yeah, apart from that Zoni theory, Ratchet simply being unable to land a ship makes sense. Plus, that was his first time piloting.
I'm pretty sure they're scrapping the old timeline, but I don't think Ratchet needed someone to look after him. If he had a father or mother figure, he would most likely know his own name. The fact that he calls himself Ratchet is most likely because it's his favorite tool. He's not very creative with names as he calls his robot friend "Clank" after hitting him on the head
I believe someone named him Ratchet seeing as how he always used it. Ratchet was too young to remember his true name.
I like the idea of Grimroth racing Ratchet and then passing away.
Doesn't sound too crazy right?
Top 3 planets I liked. 1st Metropolis 2nd Rilgar 3rd Veldin. Canon more like side story. Maybe a better ratchet and clank 1 than original was on hand maybe.
Thanks for sharing!
No need
Will ratchet dad will make an appearance in a new ratchet and clank game
Through a flashback? I could imagine that.
I always wondered why Kaden didn't go with Ratchet to Veldin🤔
Me too! Most likely not to both get caught.
Watch ratchet's real name be something like Jarred. Or Keith. _Jarred and Clank: The Eco Eclipse_
Or Paul
I like the theory that it was the plumber who raised him www.fanfiction.net/s/6748240/1/The-General-and-Kaden it was from this but it makes sense with the name ratchet i mean really then the plumber left on one of his jobs when ratchet was young and didnt come back so they both forgot about each other
Man the plumber is full of surprises :P
I would kill for a rat ch er origins game that explains all of this.
Maybe he was raised by the helpdesk robot
Grim raised Ratchet, guess you don’t have the PS4 version
I'm talking about the original game ;)
(Mewkuro12) Obviously it was because no one would think to look on Veldin. I mean, it's not exactly an impressive planet. Why would you visit a planet that is not that impressive? It's like Takion where did he find Ratchet? In an impressive and overly populated city.
Ive always wonder
Lombaxes were smart yes, but Ratchet was too young to have raised himself still.
Do you think lord volislon has something about Kaden or was he lying!
I mean lord vorselon
cause he says I am your father's accounts but he said ;ike he was Kaden and it was a mistake to say it
Good question! Maybe he was telling the truth and eventually got brainwashed into thinking that Lombaxes were untrustworthy or something like that.
Maybe the Plummer?
You know what, I wouldn't even be surprised....however, wouldn't Ratchet have remembered him?
Ur awesome
Nah you're awesome!
Also SECOND HERE VIVI
No I'm first.
Fine
...there is a Ratchet and Clank-comic??
Yep! A compilation released in 2011.
Veldin
Yes.
Vivi, I have a theory. I think Fastoon wasn't a desert at all but what we see of Fastoon on Tools of Destruction is after decades of being destroyed and deserted. Also they could make ratchet think grimroth died but really he was captured and in the next gane ratchet could find out he is alive and rescue him.
Good point! Now it'd be quite hard to think that Grimroth was captured all these years.
To many theories man well im going to the L.A event so ill report back to you
Awesome! Well theories is part of what I do :P
I know this is a late comment compared to video release, but my assumption to what gave Ratchet the motivation to be a mechanic aside from just a wish to explore/travel was actually Captain Qwark. After all back then Qwark constantly claimed weapons and tools that were of his own making, even if they obviously weren't. We know that Ratchet was a fan and its not hard to assume he had no means of watching or listening to something that probably had Qwark spouting rubbish.
Assuming Ratchet was also a little younger when he first heard about this stuff with Qwark, Wouldn't be hard to imagine he'd want to make his own tools and gadgets like his 'hero'
This video was complete word salad, you did not say anything substantial at all.
Was it good salad?
