Savitar existed before Flashpoint. No, he did not. Savitar is a post-Flashpoint side effect. Really?)))) And would you explain Savitar's words " ...When you created Flashpoint, you unwittingly provided me with the means for my return. Wally. You gave me the idea to turn Wally into Kid Flash, to make him fast enough to replace me in your prison..." Savitat said it himself. Was he lying? But how Eobard was quick to recognise Savitar's suit and his real identity? Savitar just  meant that when his younger self created Flashpoint like he once did, it gave him a way to free himself. This is still technically true, he is just leaving out the detail that he himself is a post-flashpoint side effect. Savitar existed long before. In Post-Flashpoint timeline Savitar got an opportunity to escape (which he didn't have in Pre-Flashpoint). that's all.
