Disturbing Truths About Pokemon

[Shadrio]

Nothing beats that when Kangaskhans reproduce with some other species that can make an egg with it... a Kangaskhan is born with a baby already in its pouch.

That's just messed up ._.

Think about this. Meat must come from somewhere in the Pokemon universe, but there are no cows or chickens at all.

Does this mean people eat Pokemon? If so, which ones?

We already know Farfetch'd have been hunted enough to make them uncommon (Rare in Red and Blue as you couldn't even find them in the wild) and Slowpoke Tails are apparently a delicacy. But what other Pokemon get eaten? Magikarp? Miltank? Seems pretty disturbing considering Pokemon border on human emotion.

[Johans Nidorino]

You can eat Tropius fruit, as well as fruits that certain Grass-type Pokémon produce sometimes (Snover and Grotle were shown to do that in the anime). Cherubi's back head is said to be delicious.

But regarding meat, according to some of the books in Canalave City, Pokémon used to be hunted in the past, and fish Pokémon are or were apparently eaten. No specific species were mentioned in them.

[Dances in Undergarments]

Every single one-off Pokemon was eaten almost out of existence.

Mmmm thats good Rayquaza

[kirbychu]

Yeah, the legends in the Canalave library say something about Pokémon being reborn if their bones are picked clean and returned to where they were caught. Most likely just a story invented to combat an outbreak of vegetarianism, but it proves that people eat Pokémon.

Mm, Spoink sausages.

[Johans Nidorino]

By the way, one of such books speaks of a time when there was no difference between Pokémon and people.

That's totally fine, but from what I've read, it says in the Japanese game that Pokémon and people actually married in the past.

I'll bet all those Gardevoir and Lopunny fans are gonna have a field day with that.

I'm myself afraid when I declare I like certain human female characters from the Pokémon franchise, but when anyone mentions liking Pokémon that way, I feel like I'm a normal person.

[Fryguy64]

I know what you mean Johans...



Oh Agatha...

;D

[TV Eye]

I dunno, man. You see Karen's new design? Damn.

Here are some new facts I just found out...

• When Paras evolves into Parasect, it loses all consciousness as the mushrooms take over its host. The normally docile Paras becomes violent and sucks nutrients from trees, because this is what the mushroom commands of it. (Also, notice the eyes on a Parasect, they are milky white signifying possession.
  
• When Mewtwo was created he KILLED all the scientists in the lab. Jesus Christ, who would want a murderous Pokemon on their team? Oh yeah...everybody.
  
• That incident with the boy waking up as a Kadabra seems to have been brought on by the boys own psychic powers. This means the all the psychics in the games (including Sabrina) might one day transform into a Pokemon themselves.
  
• Voltorbs and Electrodes were discovered AFTER the creation of Pokeballs. No one knows where they came from or how they appeared.
  
• Gorebyss leaves its victims as dried out husks with all of their nutrients completely drained.
  
• Feraligatr's have been known to eat humans...
  
• Golbat's are five feet tall. They don't stop drinking blood until they are full. Let's take into the fact that the main characters are ten year old children who would most likely be about four feet tall. Yeahhhh...
  
• Froslass freezes any living creature and displays them. Seeing as how Pokemon live through being frozen solid, imagine living your life as some sadists statue.
  
• The Lake Trio. If someone were to harm Azelf, they would lose their God-given will. Meaning that they will live the rest of their lives as nothing more than a motionless statue. With Mesprit, all emotion would be taken away. The individual would become a zombie. And finally, Uxie who will wipe out all memory of anyone who LOOKS INTO ITS EYES!
  
• Gulpin's stomach acid can dissolve anything, including human bones...
  
• How does Ditto reproduce? It can mate with anything but itself and it never produces a baby Ditto...Also, it has been brought up over the internet that Ditto is some sort of stem-cell Pokemon, given that it was first found in a cloning laboratory and in the possession of scientists.
  
• When a Pokemon like Snorunt (or eventually Eevee) evolve into a ghost Pokemon, does that mean they died?
  
• Houndoom's flames inflict never-ending pain.
  
• Nidoking's tail can sever the spine of its opponent.
  
• Haunter's lick has been known to cause convulsions, paralysis, and death.
  
• This is actually in Heartgold and Soulsilver. Arceus creates the planet Earth and then promptly destroys it just to make an egg.

Paras -> Parasect was stated by Da Robot as well as the Kangaskhan being born with a baby thing... And I posted Gorebyss and the lake trio. Read the others' posts, people

And yeah, I wonder how a Pokémon can gain the Ghost type if it didn't have it previously. It can be explained on Shedinja because it's technically the shell of the evolving Nincada.

[Deleted]

Leaves you to wonder...when Ghost Pokemon are born, does that mean they're still-born? ;D

[Fryguy64]

Gastly can learn Sucker Punch, Thunderpunch, Ice Punch and Fire Punch. What the hell is it punching with? In fact, why can Wooper learn Ice Punch too?

[Johans Nidorino]

Sucker Punch is not a punch in Japanese. That's why many other Pokémon were given that move "absurdly". No reason for the other three though ^_^
