whenever people say Apollo has "multiple backstories" its kinda funny to me a bit but not only because of the fact its actually just one backstory that doesn't contradict at any point (which is a post ive already made lol), but rather because of other facts:
Apollo has basically no backstory in the game named after him. His family gets some kind of backstory yes but he is pretty much left out of it to focus on Thalassa and Trucy and Phoenix more than anything, he's pretty much mentioned VERY little in that backstory. So it's not even one of his backstories, I'd say. It's more Trucy's.
In DD, he literally just gets a friend. Having a friend is not a backstory lol. Like yes Clay did come from nowhere but it does NOT count as a backstory. Literally all we get from his past with that friend is a small scene that tells us nothing but how their friendship works. No further story than that.
All in all, Spirit of Justice is literally the only game that actually gives him a backstory in any sense of the word. And it is literally about the one detail that is pretty much skipped over in the first OR second game where he didn't even get much anyway. It is not giving him "another" backstory, it's filling in the blanks what the first game didn't bother to care for much by actually giving him his first and only backstory.
So yes. Apollo HAS a convoluted backstory. But it is ONLY ONE, and is only ever shown at all in the game where people took to complaining that he has multiple.

Now I am going to go and hibernate from this blog until maybe January, or whenever I decide I want to start the evidence tournament. In the meantime, you guys should play the Layton crossover. 🫡
