I think most of the actions of the characters in SSE can be solved by the good old "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" truism.

I wonder what happens after Subspace is defeated. Are their memories reset, back to the beginning? Perhaps, they'll have a better understanding of the world?

Same as asking, "Why aren't Mario and Bowser still friends by the time of Mario Galaxy since I had them together in a team match all the time in Melee?"

What was Rayquaza doing in a lake? Seems to me like it should have come from the sky.

Maybe that's were it comes from in the Pokemon games, but I don't know since I don't play the games.

It is the Sky High Pokémon, it lives in the sky, it rests only atop Sky Pillar, etc.

It was taking a bath, and it wanted to shoot something!

Maybe Mario assumed Yoshi et al. were evil shadow versions like show up a lot elsewhere throughout the game. That's why he kicked Yoshi.

The Yoshi he knows wouldn't have hurt Peach.

Maybe there are wild/rabid Yoshi (Yoshis?) that attack people. They are dinosaurs.

^ Zombie Yoshis from the Nintendo Power comics!

Sakurai explained SSE in today's Smash Bros. DOJO!! update. I think that when you, the creator of the game, have to explain its story, then you didn't do a good enough job of telling it.

I read that today and some of the stuff was like "how the heck were you supposed to know that?!"

It's seriously tough to tell a story in pantomime and gameplay, however. How would you explain the origin of Tabuu and his forces without a ton of cutscenes before the stadium? Without text?

I really have no idea why they didn't explain things better. The most I can discern is that they were going for some kind of The Matrix-style plot-explaination format (a little info in the actual game, a little in the trophy descriptions, a little in casual comments by the developer) that just fell flat.
