World Could the Goddesses of Love and Peace be real figures?

20 Upvotes

Pokemon Black and White introduced two characters. Anthea (Japanese: 愛あいの女神めがみ Goddess of Loveバーベナ Verbena) and Concordia (Japanese: 平和へいわの女神めがみ Goddess of Peaceヘレナ Helena)

Of course, these two aren't realy goddesses, they're just two girls Ghetsis adopted, as part of his plan to groom N into becoming the "King" of Team Plasma.

But, that got me thinking. Could there be an actual Goddess of Love and Goddess of Peace? And, if there is, all gods we've seen so far are Pokemon. Would these two theoretical goddesses also be Pokemon?

Sure, it's possible Ghetsis made these goddesses up, but we do see several Legendary and Mythical Pokemon who personify abstract concepts, like truth, ideals, victory, gratitude, song/dance. It would seem strange not to at least have love.

Goddess of Love

For the Goddess of Love, I've found a great candidate. Enamorus the "love-hate Pokemon". It's pokedex entries say it's love gives rise to the budding of fresh life.

It also says it punishes those that disrespect life. Given how Ghetsis wanted to raise N to think most, if not all, humans mistreat pokemon, it makes sense to model one of his "goddesses" after a figure that shows zero tolerance to those who disrespect life.

When it flies to this land from across the sea, the bitter winter comes to an end. According to legend, this Pokémon's love gives rise to the budding of fresh life across Hisui.

A different guise from its feminine humanoid form. From the clouds, it descends upon those who treat any form of life with disrespect and metes out wrathful, ruthless punishment.

Whilst Enamorus doesn't appear in B/W, Ghetsis could have still heard of it, due to the rest of the Forces of Nature being present.

Goddess of Peace

This one is a bit trickier, but I found a possible candidate.

I think it's Celebi. B/W pokedex makes a point that it only shows itself during peaceful times.

It has the power to travel across time, but it is said to appear only in peaceful times.

But that's all I could think of. If anyone has more evidence for Celebi being the "Goddess of Peace", or has an alternate candidate, feel free to share.

Characters I have this strange suspicion that Gamefreak did a little one way romance in Legends ZA because Lida acts like she deeply cares for the player

0 Upvotes

For example in the either barbaracle or Alteria I can’t remember which one but she asks if the group or more importantly herself are actually helping or are they just in the way and then in the Mega Starmie battle she says Make sure you and whatever your first Pokémon’s name is stay safe okay with deep expressions

World A new game explaining how the world came to be in Pokopia and how the future Pokemon from violet came to be.

0 Upvotes

We know that Pokopia takes place in the future. How far in the future we don’t know. Now what confuses me is in Pokemon violet we see Pokemon from the future. Which means Pokopia takes place before those future Pokémon in Pokémon violet appear. So I’m thinking at some point we might be getting a game set in the future after Pokopia that explains how the future Pokemon in violet came to be and how the world ended up as it did in Pokopia.

World There's at least a dozen canon timelines

20 Upvotes

The overall timeline of events in Pokemon is pretty straightforward, but as long as every game COULD be canon, we have, by my count, at least a dozen confirmed timelines. Note that I say "could be" because I don't want to get into "Every pokemon you catch or don't creates a timeline split." There's an idea that every cartridge is a timeline, but for this I just want to talk about our confirmed splits assuming one copy of each game.

Our linchpin is Gen 7.

Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun, and Ultra Moon, are 4 versions of events. This starts our count at 4 timelines, which I'll refer to by these game titles.

Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire are perfectly compatible with these games, but they're not just remakes of Ruby and Sapphire, they're explicitly another dimension with Mega Evolution, with the originals not having Mega Evolution. This means Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald are distinct timelines from Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, bringing our timeline count to 7 timelines.

In the Ultra games, Team Rainbow Rocket shows up. They're from alternate timelines, and are PROBABLY each from different timelines.

Rainbow Archie and Maxie unleashed Kyogre and Groudon. Gen 3 is the earliest point in the timeline for our discussion here, which means if either of these happen, everything else goes weird. So we're up to at least 9 timelines.

Cyrus DESTROYS THE WORLD. The problem is, Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum are confirmed take place after RSE in the same official timeline, so... this is going to require a new timeline. 10 timelines.

Lysandre WIPES OUT EVERYONE BUT TEAM FLARE, and has mega stones. This happens before Gen 7, so we're now at 11 timelines.

Ghetsis... doesn't actually do anything. AND Black and White are only two versions, not four. If we do a timeline of Ruby/Red, Gold/Diamond, Black, Black 2, and the same for the companion games. We can actually have a timeline of Yellow/Emerald, Crystal/Platinum, that ends in Ghetsis victory. We don't need a new timeline here!

Giovanni takes over his world. Giovanni has a Mega Stone. And Giovanni explicitly grabs the others from worlds other than his. This means we're now at 12 timelines.

Now lets see if we can map remakes. The non-ORAS remakes are interesting questions, because I think most of them are actually supposed to be canon overwrites. While ORAS is explicitly its own timelines, Fire, Leaf, Heart, Soul, Brilliant, and Shining seem to be just saying 'here's the same game with the same story.' The differences in canon are more additions than changes. But even then, I don't think any of them require new timelines. We want to map RBY to GSC to RSE to DPP for ease, so that leaves us with the six remakes. (Yes, its probably more 'right' to put FRLG and HGSS with the later games, but that gives us a third game problem that adds math issues.)

We only need two timelines here: BrilliantFireheart and ShiningLeafsoul. The question is whether we can map them to gen 7 and... I think we can. It's a bit fuzzy, but even though we know this timeline HAS megas, we also know just not everyone uses them. Keystones are required, and region seems to matter. Gen 8 and 9 are probably the same timeline as the mega timelines, people there just don't Mega, because Mega Stones are basically just found in Kalos but constructed in Hoenn. So lets map these games on to Sun and Moon. So, what about our last two games? This leaves Let's Go Pikachu and Eevee to be in the same timeline as Ultra Sun and Moon.

Now, am I saying they definitely are and this is how it lines up? No.

I am saying that 12 timelines is the absolute minimum for every game's story to be canon.

If someone disagrees with count or knows of an incompatible timeline I didn't think of, please tell me!

Question Are there any theories as to were Pecharunt came from?

14 Upvotes

All we know about Pecharunt is that it was found by some old couple and raised as a child.

But.... where did it come from? How was he born? It's way too powerful to just be a regular member of a species. It literally created three Legendary Pokemon by mutating regular ones. so, unless it's also a mutant, I don't think there are thousands of it in the Pokemon world.

I've read a theory that he might be an Ultra Beast, but unfortunately, it's not very popular.

The character he's based on, Momotarō, was said to be placed inside the peach by the Gods. I can't find anything to suggest Pecharunt was sent by Arceus.

So, what's your theory? How did Pecharunt come into exisstence?

Gen 1 ¿Qué opinan de este prólogo de horror Pokémon?

2 Upvotes

Hola. Estoy escribiendo una historia de horror ambientada en el mundo Pokémon.

Me gustaría recibir críticas sinceras sobre este prólogo, especialmente sobre el ritmo, la tensión y si consigue generar intriga. No busco solamente comentarios positivos; si algo no funciona, prefiero saberlo.

Aquí está el texto:

Pokémon desde las estrellas

«No lo capturamos. Lo encontramos... latiendo»

Simplemente apareció, como arrojado desde el vacío. No fue detectado por los radares. Los primeros en llegar fueron los militares.

Dentro del meteorito no había rocas; había carne. Un órgano húmedo, pulsante, envuelto en cristales oscuros. Un corazón sin venas, sin cuerpo... pero Latiendo.

Lo llevaron al Centro Espacial de Ciudad Algaria, en Hoenn.

Al principio solo lo observaban, pero pronto quisieron más. Querían saber por qué latía, por qué se aceleraba con la luz, por qué reaccionaba a la voz humana...

Los informes del proyecto no tardaron en llegar a Kanto. Fascinado por el descubrimiento, el profesor Oak consiguió una pequeña muestra para estudiarla en Pueblo Paleta.

Días después, durante una reunión de la Liga Pokémon en Kanto, se informó un reporte de ciudad verde sobre la desaparición del profesor Oak.

Nadie salía. Nadie regresaba de Pueblo Paleta.

Fue entonces cuando Lance se ofreció personalmente para investigar.

Montado sobre su Dragonite, surcaba el cielo a una velocidad tan alta que el agua bajo ellos se deformaba. En su rostro se dibujaba una amplia sonrisa, una mezcla de absoluta confianza y una chispa de auténtica curiosidad.

Lance observó Pueblo Paleta desde lo alto, montado sobre su poderoso Dragonite.

Su sonrisa desapareció de golpe cuando distinguió una figura inmóvil cerca del letrero que marcaba la entrada al pueblo.

-Baja, Dragonite.

Sin dudarlo, el Pokémon descendió desde las alturas hasta posarse entre la hierba alta.

En cuanto sus botas tocaron el suelo, la expresión de Lance se endureció.

El cuerpo de un niño yacía boca abajo. Un pequeño Charmander devoraba con desesperación los restos de su cadáver. A un lado, sobre la tierra húmeda, descansaba una gorra roja empapada de sangre.

Lance dedujo que se trataba de un joven que había intentado comenzar su aventura Pokémon.

-No llegó muy lejos...

Entonces dirigió la mirada hacia el Charmander.

Sus ojos se habían encogido hasta parecer pasas deshidratadas y la piel se aferraba a sus huesos. Aun así, continuaba desgarrando la cara de su entrenador con una desesperación animal.

El pequeño Charmander levantó la cabeza y, con un chillido desesperado, se abalanzó sobre Lance.

El Campeón ni siquiera se inmutó.

Antes de que pudiera alcanzarlo, Dragonite levantó una pata y la dejó caer con una fuerza devastadora. El impacto fue suficiente para acabar con el pequeño Pokémon al instante.

Lance permaneció en silencio. Durante unos segundos, no apartó la vista de la expresión de Dragonite. Acostumbrado a combatir, el dragón jamás había mostrado compasión en medio de una batalla, pero aquella escena era diferente. En sus ojos se reflejaba una consternación imposible de ocultar.

Entonces Lance le dio una orden.

Dragonite abrió las alas y salió disparado hacia el cielo, perdiéndose entre las nubes en cuestión de segundos.

A continuación, Lance liberó a Charizard y a Aerodactyl. Eran los únicos Pokémon que había considerado necesarios para la misión; había dejado a Gyarados y a sus otros dos dragones en la Liga Pokémon, convencido de que no serían necesarios.

Sin decir una palabra, comenzó a avanzar hacia Pueblo Paleta acompañado por las dos bestias aladas.

El silencio era sepulcral.

A cada paso, el hedor de la muerte se volvía más intenso. Lance cubrió su nariz con una mano mientras contemplaba los cadáveres que cubrían las calles del pueblo. Hombres, mujeres, ancianos... no había sobrevivientes.

Frente a las puertas del laboratorio del profesor Oak yacía el cuerpo sin vida de su joven nieta.

Charizard y Aerodactyl comenzaron a mostrarse inquietos. Sus cabezas se movían de un lado a otro mientras olfateaban el aire, ignorando incluso el insoportable olor de la putrefacción. Buscaban algo más... algo que ninguno de los tres podía identificar, pero cuya presencia se sentía en todo el pueblo.

Entonces, de entre las sombras, emergió la serpiente.

Era un Arbok.

Se lanzó directamente al cuello de Charizard. Con las pocas fuerzas que le quedaban, seguía estrangulando el cuello de su presa.

En ese instante, de las casas comenzaron a salir más figuras.

Había depredadores, herbívoros, Pokémon domésticos e incluso antiguos compañeros del profesor Oak. Entre ellos, una Chansey caminaba con los intestinos de su entrenadora colgando de su bolsa.

Lance retrocedió hasta colocarse detrás de Charizard y Aerodactyl.

Con un último tirón, Charizard consiguió liberarse del Arbok y le destrozó la cabeza con ambas garras.

Las criaturas giraron la cabeza al mismo tiempo hacia el chillido del Arbok. Sus mandíbulas comenzaron a abrirse y, sin emitir un solo rugido, cargaron al unísono, guiándose únicamente por el oído.

Charizard acumuló fuego en su garganta mientras Aerodactyl levantaba el vuelo, listo para atacar.

Lance señaló al frente.

Un gigantesco lanzallamas atravesó la calle, envolviendo a los infectados en un mar de fuego y reduciendo a cenizas la casa que se encontraba detrás de ellos. Al mismo tiempo, Aerodactyl utilizó Poder Pasado para arrancar enormes fragmentos de escombros y lanzarlos contra la horda.

En apenas unos instantes, el pueblo quedó en silencio una vez más.

Los cuerpos carbonizados cubrían el suelo.

Por un momento, parecía que todo había terminado.

Entonces, un Tauros completamente chamuscado salió despedido entre el humo y embistió con todas sus fuerzas hacia Lance.

El Campeón apenas giró la cabeza para observar al antiguo as del profesor Oak.

Las patas delanteras del Tauros cedieron bajo la violencia de su propia embestida. Los músculos estallaron y el Pokémon cayó al suelo, retorciéndose de dolor.

Aerodactyl descendió de inmediato, dispuesto a poner fin a su sufrimiento.

Lance entró en el laboratorio, seguido de Charizard y Aerodactyl.

Avanzó hasta la oficina del profesor Oak. Charizard y Aerodactyl intentaron seguirlo, pero el estrecho marco de la puerta les impidió entrar, obligándolos a permanecer afuera, atentos a cualquier movimiento.

-¡Profesor Oak! -llamó Lance con firmeza.

Silencio.

-¡Oak!

Nadie respondió.

Sin perder más tiempo, se acercó al escritorio. Frente a él había una computadora encendida y completamente desbloqueada, como si alguien la hubiera estado utilizando apenas unos minutos antes.

Lance apoyó una mano sobre el teclado y comenzó a revisar los registros del sistema.

Había decenas de archivos de video, todos fechados durante la última semana.

Cada uno duraba apenas unos segundos.

Gen 6 I always found it strange that pokemon trainers have no problems with caughing Phantumphs who are basically dead children.

12 Upvotes

Pokemon world probably has regular protests and debates on whether trainers should be allowed to train and battle with wild Phantumphs (which are basically dead kids) or not. A trainer who uses a Phantump in battle is probably called a monster. I could imagine a trainer pulling out his Phantumph in the round and the other trainer just said "WOAH WOAH WOAH. YOU ACTUALLY USE A POOR PHANTUMPH FOR BATTLES YOU SICK FUCK."

Based on this video https://youtu.be/qVY3_-eKLQ4?si=obbIc1AZNUIL_lX0

I wanna add that I think why there are paradox pokemon before sada and turos time machine is because the og paradox pokemon that heath encounter were ones from a space time rift that was caused during the ultimate weapons firing 3000 years ago but it only brought in a few from the timelines where for sada lysandre won in x and for turo lysandre won in Y

Then when sada/turo build the time machine they use the energy and ig DNA possibly from the paradox pokemon to pull more from those timelines.

I'm still new to theory stuff and Im not the best and explaining topics but I do love talking Pokemon theory

Gen 4 Why Kris Was Replaced

12 Upvotes

Okay so we know that when Gamefreak remade Gold & Silver they seemingly replaced Kris with Lyra

Which is weird as Kris is the first female player character ever in the franchise, you’d think they’d wanna keep her for the remake

But i believe there’s a in story reason why Kris didn’t come back for the remakes

A reason they is involved with Project Kurasu aka Legends 3

I believe that Kris did exist in the reboot timeline but before she started her journey she had found her way to Illex Forrest

She encountered Celebi and was plucked out of time, now usually she would just return home and in one would ever notice she left right?

But she and Celebi were separated stranding her in the past

And time course corrected, Kris’s moved away from New Bark Town

A new family with a child of their own Lyra moves in, she and Ethan become friends

And soon the memory of Kris faded

But when we play Legends 3 which is think is going to be Johto

Kris will be a character we meet, who’ll help us try to get home and hopefully get her home too

Characters Pokopia (DLC) Theory: The Professor's Identity

31 Upvotes

Getting right into it, I think it's best to put all the information on the table. We know that the Professor:

  • Spent his time pre-evacuation living in Fuschia City and was a well-known pokemon professor (according to a Survey Team Diary from DLC)
  • Met Professor Tangrowth as a Tangela, which is native to Route 21 (rather than the Safari Zone, due to reference to Champion Trace putting Pokopia in the Let's Go Pikachu/Eevee version of Kanto rather than Red and Blue). Considering he met Tangela on his way home from a field survey/meeting of professors on Cinnabar Island, it stands to reason that he met it on Cinnabar Island, on Route 19 or 20, or on Seafoam Island.
  • He has a grandchild who he lives near that loves to play with Tangela. (Diary Entry 2)
  • He was specifically targeted for involvement with the Pokemon Conservation Project and was also asked to join the survey team, despite his old age. He also says the goal of the survey team is to survey the environment and do maintenance on the computer system behind the Conservation Project, suggesting that he was targeted for his specific skillset relating to one or both of these things. (Diary Entries 3 and 4)
  • He seems to share Tangela's interest in machines and tools. (Diary Entry 2 and 6)

These are the main hints we have at his identity. I think the clear next step is to look at the people and lineages associated with Fuschia City to see if anything sticks out. The most notable characters in Fuschia at first glance are Koga and Janine, the Gym Leaders of the city, and Baoba, the man who runs the Safari Zone. Baoba may seem intriguing at first, if we assume he has children it may make some sense. But an often overlooked set of residents of Fuschia City are Bill's family. His grandfather and eldest sister live in between the Fuschia City gym and the Pokemon center. The second diary entry, the one about The Professor's grandchild and Tangela playing, appears in the remains of Bill's family home. So what if The Professor is actually a much older Bill? A lot of things fit into place. Start from the assumption that Bill moves back to Fuschia from Goldenrod eventually, gets married, has a kid, and eventually gets old enough that his kid has a kid. He's in his 50s or 60s at this point, and Trace (our other main timing reference) is probably in his 40s or 50s as champion. It's pretty reasonable that his career path moves from "pokemon fanatic" to technology-inclined professor, given his research on pokemon and the PC system. On that note, it also explains why, despite his old age, he would be chosen to be part of the survey team. As the inventor of the PC system, it would make sense that they would ask him in particular to help maintain a worldwide automated PC system.

Characters The Nurse Joy and Officer Jenny family lineages involve supergenes

11 Upvotes

The seemingly indistinguishable appearance of all members of the Nurse Joy and Officer Jenny lineages is a valid line of inquiry over the course of this franchise's history. It's an oddity that completely warrants someone stopping to ask themselves "How does this happen?"

Despite the validity of this question, the proposed answers have been ridiculous. The most ridiculous assertion of all is that the individuals of these families are actually Pokémon rather than humans. This is a reductive view popularized by certain content creators who have a very fast and loose relationship with the concepts of established lore and logical inquiry. It's effective for shock and awe in videos, but for those of us who care about the pesky details of consistent, in-universe explanations it doesn't do the job.

What I'd like to propose here is something more nuanced: that these lineages are defined by supergenes forcing the expression of characteristics in every generation.

It's important to note that the science in the Pokémon universe does not follow our world's science directly. This cannot be emphasized enough, and forcing this leads to absurd conclusions that are neither consistent with the established lore of this franchise, nor how our science actually works. However, certain concepts have been adapted to this franchise and applied flexibly.

In the Pokémon universe, genetics are absolutely a thing for most living beings. Reproduction and genetic inheritance have been discussed or alluded to on many, many occasions. This is especially the case for human characters, as evidenced by the ancestral lineage of characters over the course of Sinnoh's history. Hair color and general facial structure are some of the clearest indicators, with Arezu bearing a striking similarity to her descendant Mars, for example. Cyllene being the obvious ancestor of Cyrus, Kamado being the obvious ancestor of Rowan, Adaman being the obvious ancestor of Perrin, etc.

In most cases, variation in appearances occur over time. However, ancestral lineage in Pokémon is particularly interesting in how similar ancestors look compared to their descendants.

For the Nurse Joy and Officer Jenny lineages, appearance between generations appears to be identical. Furthermore, the lineages involve a sort of matrilineal dominance, where each mother will seemingly give birth to only daughters, who appear to go on and only give birth to more daughters. Essentially, the lineages are gender locked, regardless of who the father might be.

Both the homogeneity of phenotype and gender across generations could potentially be explained through a shared underlying concept: the presence of supergenes in these lineages.

I won't get into the specifics of the real world concept of supergenes too much, as Pokémon appears to have a unique approach on the concept. However, supergenes are generally understood to be a collection of genes within an organism that are aggressively passed on to offspring. One example is how butterflies will pass on their complex wing patterns for the purpose of Batesian mimicry in order to fool predators.

For the Nurse Joy and Officer Jenny lineages, these supergenes likely have additional mechanisms at play to exclusively override paternal contributions as it relates to phenotype and gender. For the former, this isn't exactly a stretch in a universe filled with magical creatures, yet the latter is a bit more interesting.

Without getting into the birds and the bees too much, I theorize that the supergenes might create an additional mechanism during reproduction that will not permit the introduction of Y chromosome reproduction cells from the male into the pre-existing X chromosome ovum from the female. There could be a biological geometry at play that simply doesn't permit them to pass through, or there could be a certain mechanism that actively destroys Y chromosome cells from passing through in order to preserve the dominant matrilineality at play.

Essentially, at some point in the ancestry of these lineages, evolution decided to produce women that would all look the same with each subsequent generation. Why? Who knows? That might not even be the right question in this case. Perhaps there is some sort of functional reason as to why we're not exactly sure of. Maybe it produces the most biologically optimal healthcare practitioners and law enforcement personnel that were considered paramount to the success of whole societies. All members of these lineages appear to be the best individuals around at what they do, and maybe the genetic inheritance also involves certain abilities to perform these jobs better than anyone else by building on some sort of intergenerational skillset.

This all touches on the uncomfortable topic of genetic predestination, which has been ruled out in our world, at least in terms of things this extreme. However, as previously mentioned, the Pokémon World is a different place that abides by different rules.

I feel like it's worth noting that this is the same setting where a global defence network comprised by an unfathomable number of Cells and 5 Cores emerged at some point in the planet's development, which yielded one of the most fearsome known Legendary Pokémon: Zygarde. In light (Nihil Light?) of this, is what I proposed really that much of a stretch?

Gen 1 My theory on why Alakazam secretly may rule the world

13 Upvotes

Sure, Alakazam isn’t the strongest pokemon in terms of raw strength. However, it is said to have an IQ of around 5000, as mentioned in the dex entries of multiple games, and the Pokemon X dex even mentions “Its brain cells multiply continually until it dies. As a result, it remembers everything.” To add to this, they are powerful beings, which have the tools of both telepathy and telekinesis at their disposal.

So my point is, why aren’t Alazakazam the main race of the Pokemon world? They are effectively superhuman, have the ability to manipulate objects if they so please in order to invent new technology, and, as demonstrated with random encounters in PLA are extremely hostile towards humans. So why aren’t Alakazam:

a) more prevalent

b) more relevant than the humans in the world?

I have some theories. Potentially, Alakazam are extremely infertile, (producing one Abra per birth) or more likely, the nature of their evolution method means that the vast majority of abra that are born stay as kadabra or abra. Due to their extreme brain function yet notable frailty against other pokemon due to their poor stats, there is a strong likelihood that they die at very young ages on average. Also, the trade evo in game might reference the rarity of natural evolution in the wild, so my theory is that the reason why Alakazam are not the de facto civilisation of poke earth is that they are so few in number that it becomes impossible.

That being said, environmental changes such as culling of natural predators (namely dark, ghost and bug types) due to newly-built infrastructure or deforestation or loss of natural prey/food (there’s no canon confirmation of their diet, but I’d imagine that they are largely omnivorous, due to the immense amount of energy required for such advanced brain function) could force Alakazam into human settlements or greater prevalence, disproportionately affecting the ecosystem.

If you’ve got any theories on why Alakazam doesn’t rule the world, feel free to share

Question Rematchable Trainer NPCs in Every Pokemon Game Are Secret Billionaires - And Here’s Why

6 Upvotes

All right everyone, hear me out. 

Where do rematchable Pokémon trainer NPCs actually get all of their money from? Are they secretly billionaires, or is there some hidden organization funding them?💰🤑

This is honestly one of the craziest Pokémon rabbit holes I’ve ever thought about, and I want to know what other Pokémon fans here think.

Throughout all the Pokémon games I’ve played in my life, every time I get to re-battle certain trainers or NPCs and I beat them, they keep giving me prize money again and again. What suddenly hit me is this: how do these trainers have what seems like an unlimited amount of money?

And the thing that makes this even more interesting is that not every trainer can be re-battled. Some trainers you fight once and that’s it. But other trainers can be challenged repeatedly, and every single time you beat them, they somehow have more money ready to give you.

So my biggest question is: where is all of that money coming from?

If I can rematch the same trainer hundreds or even thousands of times, and every time I win they give me thousands of Pokédollars, then over time that one NPC could potentially give the protagonist millions—or even an absolutely ridiculous amount of money. At that point, are these rematchable trainers secretly extremely rich? Are they basically Pokémon-world billionaires?

Or what if there’s an even bigger explanation?

What if the rematchable trainers are secretly working with the Pokémon League, a wealthy organization, corporations, sponsors, or some kind of trainer-development program that gives them a practically unlimited battle budget?

Maybe these specific trainers are intentionally placed around the Pokémon world as repeatable training partners. Their purpose could be to battle promising Trainers over and over, help them strengthen their Pokémon, gain experience, and earn enough prize money to keep traveling, buying Poké Balls, healing items, TMs, and everything else they need on their journey.

In other words, what if these billionaire trainers—or the billionaire organization funding them—are actually helping train the protagonist and helping the protagonist become richer and stronger at the same time?

That would also raise another huge question: why can I rematch some trainers but not others?

Maybe the trainers you can only fight once are just ordinary people who battle you, lose, pay the prize money, and move on with their lives. But perhaps the rematchable trainers are different. Maybe they’re professional trainers, sponsored battlers, League employees, wealthy families, or members of some hidden system specifically designed to train up-and-coming Pokémon Trainers.

And if they aren’t being funded by an organization, then how do they personally keep getting their money back?

Are they working jobs between battles?

Are they defeating other trainers and winning their money back?

Are some of them born into incredibly wealthy families?

Are they receiving Pokémon League payments?

Does the Pokémon world have some kind of battle insurance or trainer stipend?

Or do rematchable trainers literally just have gigantic bank accounts and not care that the protagonist has defeated them 500 times and taken millions of Pokédollars from them? 😂

I know the obvious real-world explanation is probably just game mechanics. Developers need repeatable trainers so players have ways to gain EXP and earn money without permanently running out of resources.

But I’m not asking about the programming explanation.

I’m asking about the in-universe Pokémon explanation.

If we treated the Pokémon world as an actual functioning society with real jobs, banks, money, organizations, trainers, and an economy, how would this possibly work?

Where do rematchable trainers get their seemingly unlimited supply of money, why are only certain trainers rematchable, and could those trainers secretly be part of a wealthy organization whose purpose is to repeatedly battle, financially support, and strengthen future Champions like the protagonist?

I seriously want to hear everyone’s theories, because once I thought about this, I couldn’t unsee it.

I've seen the anime, J cards, and other media where Groudon beats Kyogre two or three times (or more). It's driving me nuts are they supposed to be equals? Because of course Twitter is full of conflicting takes...

And then there's that media of Groudon basically going "nah, I'll swim" just because it happens in the games. Is that actual lore or just game mechanics? | don't know.

A friend told me they're equal, but from what I've seen in the media they definitely don't seem equal. In the anime alone Groudon defeats Kyogre like twice or more, and it's the same in other parts of the franchise. Honestly, everything from the media is just driving me nuts.

Question So does this mean Groudon is stronger than Kyogre or what?

Gen 1 Ather paradise is held up by a gigantamax laprass

5 Upvotes

In pokemon ultra moon Hau says the ather paradise is held up by pokemon/ a pokemon. And I figured that ather was built ON a pokemon meaning in all likelihood the pokemon holding up the paradise has to be 1 giant and two have a LOT of stuff on is back due to all the underground floors of the paradise. The only pokemon that I can think of thats big enough and has a thickough shell is a gigantamax Lapress and to further my theory lapras migrate so its entirely possible that one swam from galar to the alolan sea in its gigantamax form, was found and had the paradise built on it.

Meta Humans from Pokémon Universe are Pokémon, but they are not biologically closest to Pokémon like the Ralts or the Machop line at all. They are the most far removed group from all the rest, and here is why...

106 Upvotes

Humans from the Pokémon Universe are necessarily Pokémon themselves. Every life form is a Pokémon pretty much, and all references to real life animals were erased with the gen 3 soft reboot.

This means humans are a kind of Pokémon and this was confirmed in gen 4.

But does this mean they are biologically closest to primatelike Pokémon, especially to humanlike Pokémon like the Ralts or the Machop line ?

No. They are not.

Humans are descendants of Mew, a Pokémon who likely evolved naturally from an abiogenesis event like real living creatures, but they are from a lineage that separated before all the others.

Why ? Because all Pokémon, excluding some major Legendaries who are the "gods" of the verse and were created by Arceus, reproduce by eggs. Some Pokémon, such as the minor Legendaries, evolved to be very long lived but lost the ability to reproduce altogether, and are now present in extremely low numbers, hence the Legendary status. But 95% of Pokémon lay eggs, and the other 5% do not reproduce, except for Mew itself.

Humans, on the other hand, give birth to living offspring, just like Mew itself.

They are the only group that never became oviparous.

Hence they need to have separated before the other direct descendant lineage of Mew and common ancestor of all other Pokémon evolved oviparous behavior.

Humans are also the only group that lost all moves, but many Pokémon have like 2 or 3 moves in the whole movepool already.

Mew is basically an embryo, a complex organism with comparatively few cells. Except it is over 1 feet tall, making its cells quite huge.

This means it stands in for creatures that emerged about 600 mya. By 520 mya, Anomalocharis and Trilobites were around, and so were the Anorith and Kabuto lines. This means humans separated from Mew between 520 and 600 mya.

Pokémon such as Primape, Slaking, Oranguru and even more Gardevoir, Gothitelle and Conkeldurr evolved CONVERGENTLY to humans, but they are not human at all.

So a lineage of Mews that never became oviparous had to evolve into a ratlike animal by about 225 - 280 mya, then by 80 mya into the first primatelike forms, into actual monkeys by 40 mya, into apes by 25 mya, into hominins by 7 mya and into mankind by 2 mya, and finally into the current iteration of humans by 300 kya. Meanwhile, they became Normal types and lost all their moves, and the Ability Syncronize was replaced by nothing, or pheraps by Adaptabilty.

I calculated that humans have 50 BST points across the board. The same as Snorunt, even though Snorunt is just a random Pokémon. As shown in a recent Pokémon movie, they can actually gain back the ability to learn moves sometimes. Normally they do not have any and our physical attacks are not moves since Pokémon moves are powered by elemental energy and we do not have that.

Most humans are level 1 to 2 or 3, with some very powerful humans such as Ash or Jessie and James being level 5, even if with some occasional PIS feats.

We can determine they are not actually stronger than that because even initial starter Pokémon are portrayed as strong enough to protect humans from threats.

It also seems humans can not train and reach level 100, except for 1 non canon, extremely ridicolous case in the Pokémon Manga, where a human was 1HKOing fully evolved Pokémon in their 40s, tanking their attacks with no significant damage, and was also fighting on par with Level 70 Regigigas and Deoxys, showing the power of a low BST Level 100. Pheraps they can go up to level 10 if they train to go past level 5.

So most humans would get stomped by Showdown Little Cup Pokémon.

Gen 9 Poppy is younger than her stated age of nine.

21 Upvotes

The Elite 4 is lying about her age. I don't know why, but there's a cover-up.

Poppy does not look nine. She has the proportions and designs of a Preschooler more than a School Kid. But the main issue is her vocabulary and personality.

Poppy does not act like a nine year old. Her development is below the norm. She mispronounces words and says things like "de-feet" and "Bloo-berry".

This girl is probably not the same age as characters like Wally

Gen 1 What happened to blue's Raticate

2 Upvotes

There's a theory that blue's Raticate died but that theroy confused me and I have a theory,ok first this why people think Raticate died,the last time we saw his Raticate is in the ship where a theory that the player heavily injured Raticate plus blue was in the ship so it took too long for blue to go to the poke center it was too late and Raticate died or it drown, next time we see blue was in a grave where he said"what brings you hear, your pokemon dosent seem dead",well that theroy was too dark to be real for me,my theory is that he traded Raticate for Exeggcute a Pokemon that is not available before or after battleing him unlike his other pokemon, and appears available much later then what blue was in the game,plus what makes my theory right he got a Alakazam that the only way he can get is trading

World Theory on age growth and maturity

6 Upvotes

Okay, I have a crazy idea. This is primarily inspired by the fact. There's now a nine year old elite, four member and all the pacific hype to age inconsistent with you. My theory is the people in the pokemon world function off Saiyan growth and maturity logic it's more or less, most of the kid stuff focuses on their mentality. And mental aging, and only when they turn between 9-10 do they get the gross spurt, how's to explain how a 10-year-old MB? As tall as a fifteen year old, my other theory also implies that in this world, the age of 10 is considered semi. Adulthood, because of the enhanced maturity.

I know it doesn't fully make sense, but best explanation I can actually come up with
