In the Champions of Meridell plot, [[Lisha]] and her friends had to travel 300 years into the past in order to reach Meridell. However, the idea that Meridell exists only [[Neopia|Neopia's]] past has since been dropped from [[Neopets]] [[Wikipedia:Canon (fiction)|canon]], and in recent plots, such as the [[Altador Cup]], it is implied that Meridell exists at the same time as the other lands of Neopia. | In the Champions of Meridell plot, [[Lisha]] and her friends had to travel 300 years into the past in order to reach Meridell.

Though they are known for their speed and excellent conditioning, Meridell's Yooyuball team lacks that certain spark that would allow them to make a serious run at championship. Over the years, the team has had respectable but unspectacular showings during the [[Altador Cup]] tournaments, placing as high as 5th and as low as 11th. | Though they are known for their speed and excellent conditioning, Meridell's Yooyuball team lacks that certain spark that would allow them to make a serious run at championship.
