Zinnia was created by a new writer in the team named Masafumi Nukita who previously made h-games, and handled the scenario writing for ORAS. Zinnia features in the Delta Episode and is basically its main character, and doesn't fit in with the game in design, tone or story. Huge amounts of cutscene time are dedicated solely to her even for plot-irrelevant moments. She acts like an unreasonable asshole who not only causes nearly all the issues and conflicts in the post-game that aren't directly about the meteor, but is retroactively responsible for giving Team Magma and Aqua the means to wake up Kyogre and Groudon because she thought them waking up would summon Rayquaza, and her actions both then and in the post-game would've doomed the fucking world if it weren't for you, the protagonist. But the game wants you to treat her sympathetically and like she's a friend to you who might've been a bit overzealous but ultimately right about things. This forced shit needless to say backfired tremendously and she became one of the most hated characters in the franchise, especially in Japan where she might outright be the most hated character in Pokemon over there.
