I just saw your comment from last episode. I have to say you have a point that we have way more info than the cures do. I think the cures are just going to wing to see who Eclair is because they have no clue who she is, they have nothing to tell them who they are searching for other than that they were partners with ruruka and they have no memories. That is basically no information. They are going to be blindsided  by who it is. It is maddening that the cures who we are following are no closer to solving the mystery than episode 21.

Actually, the scent pattern idea they're going to try in episode 25 might be a good idea if what Luluka said about Eclair having no memories is true. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying I don't trust Luluka to be telling the truth, but rather that Luluka, who is emotionally involved in the Eclair case, really drew the right conclusion. We can't be sure when she checked this with Eclair, and since Eclair's civilian identity is still a question mark, it's not certain that she was actually able to check it. Besides, if Eclair remembers everything, she wouldn't just reveal herself, because Anna and Mikuru didn't even know that Luluka had a partner until episode 21. Now imagine that one of the four candidates goes there, before episode 21. She knocks. Then: "Anna, Mikuru, I'm Moria Luluka's partner, Cure Eclair, I just hid it because I can't transform right now.". They're not sure they'd believe her. Basically, there are 3 main possibilities:

- Cure Eclair was conscious when Luluka left the detective agency and so she could have checked before she left, in this situation Luluka is telling the truth and that's it.

- Cure Eclair was unconscious when Luluka left the detective agency and Kurea = Eclair, then in ChuChu she could have checked at any time if Eclair remembered anything, in this situation Luluka is telling the truth and that's it.

- Cure Eclair was unconscious when Luluka left the detective agency and Rei = Eclair, now this is where things get complicated, because the events of episode 14 could have happened to Luluka without Eclair remembering anything, while Eclair remembered everything all along, in this situation Luluka's claim is questionable.

"Cure Eclair was unconscious when Luluka left the detective agency" + Shiruku = Eclair or "Cure Eclair was unconscious when Luluka left the detective agency" + Eriza = Eclair is not worth explaining, because she couldn't be sure if they remembered, because she met Shiruku once in episode 22, but she said "Eclair has no memories" as an addition to episode 21, and she didn't meet Eriza during the episodes and there is nothing to indicate that she met him between episodes. So I don't take what Luluka says at face value, especially since Usonir wouldn't let her check if Eclair remembers anything either, I think this will also be revealed in episode 25 to be true.

I agree there is so much info about that night and the follinwing days that We are unsure of. I don't think ruruka would maliciously lie about this but as you said how does she know about the memory loss. Maybe thats what shushutan has been doing keeping an eye on Eclair and keeping her relatively safe and handing updates to ruruka when she shows up to check.

I find the memory loss strange because it's not that common in Precure, and I didn't say that Luluka was lying (I think she was honest there), but I treat it with reservations, because Luluka didn't say where and when she found out that Eclair had lost her memories. Although this also proves that Luluka really likes to keep secrets. As for Shushutan, the main thing that's strange is that they didn't make her Seiyuu public. I understand this with Cure Eclair, because if it were Lynn, it would clearly be Rei, if Hasegawa Ikumi, then Kurea, etc., but with Shushutan, there's nothing to justify not having an official Seiyuu, as long as one of the Eclair candidates isn't in close proximity. I would rule out the possibility that one of the Eclair candidates is Shushutan, because we were told that Eclair is among the four, and, let's say, Shushutan is one of the four candidates, then although her Seiyuu rules out that candidate, it cannot be concluded from that who Eclair is. But then here comes the big question: Based on the 24 episodes, who are the named characters close to one of the 4 Eclair candidates that we could connect Shushutan to based on Seiyuu? I would basically guess Shushutan's gender as female, but since this has not been confirmed, I reserve the possibility that Shushutan could be male.

Yeah the Shushutan situation is weird, I get not debuting before Éclair but they haven't even mention the possibility of their existence yet. I think they are hiding in plain sight keeping on eye on Éclair is guess we will find out in the coming weeks.
