Arceus is the real God Pokemon.

Rayquaza is just protector of the earth, living in the Ozone

It fights alien Pokemon Deoxys and calms down Kyogre (creator and protector of the sea) and Groudon (protector and creator of the Land) when they got to fight each other (mainly because of humans)

🤓

One could say that Rayquaza is the Avenger Pokemon 🤭

Arceus is a capital G god. Any “one-of-a-kind” Pokémon representing an in-universe element or force could pass as a lowercase g god.

Yess, thank you! I corrected it in my comment! 🫶🏻🤘🏻

Mew and Ditto are both demigods then

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

in that case, mewtwo is basically just a ripoff of Mary Shelley’s “Frankenstein.” what other public domain classics did Pokémon manage to repackage and resell to us?!

Rayquaza is the Kirby of Pokemon

[-] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago

Does Rayquaza have the slap of death of Kirbo?

They're all deities, Arceus is just on a higher level

One of them is a lawnmower.

Hank, suddenly intrigued: "Wait, there's a 'grass type' Pokemon?"

[-] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago

I don't mind the lawnmower cause it's a poltergeist possessing various electronics. That's a pretty cool concept, even though I don't care for the designs themselves.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

wait, could that poltergeist possess.. a propane grill?

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

Wait... Could it possess a propane accessory as well?

“Sort of” because it isn’t a lawnmower, it’s possessing a lawnmower.

“But yeah” because that’s splitting hairs. 🤣

Bobby: "Dad, everybody knows they can't catch Rayquazza... it entices ."

[-] [email protected] 25 points 1 month ago

Maybe it's just nostalgia (even though I was already playing videogames when Pokémon R/B came out on GB), but 3rd generation Pokémon was really the best one. Creative and fun without being too wacky. Also, Gardevoir. 🤷😅

Also, Gardevoir. 🤷😅

Meanwhile, Bobby's outside playing in the tall grass pretending to be a Rattata.

[-] [email protected] 10 points 1 month ago

I can absolutely see Bobby as the comfy shorts kid.

POV: you are the first Zubat that a player using gameshark sees

"It's pronounced Arcanine, dad."

Hank: “Bobby, when I was little, we had 151 Pokémon, and that was plenty! We didn’t even have confirmation that Mew existed until maybe a decade later, and we were all so happy that we threw a party! Remember, Boomhauer?”

Boomhauer: “Well I tell ya what man igottagetyaonthepokemonromhacksbecausebackthentheydidntknowgaddumnallaboutjapaneseso (chuckling) theyjustchangedthejapanesecharacterstoenglishones man andnobodycaredtheydjustsitthereonno$gbandmakeuppokemonnameslike ‘turt’ or ‘hors’ andwe’dalljustlikestumblethroughthebarelytranslatedgames tryingtofigureoutwhattodoman it was a joy to be included”

That "new" Pokemon debuted 24 years ago

[-] [email protected] 16 points 1 month ago

Hank Hill recognizes 152 Pokémon total. The first 151, and then Stunfisk.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

STUNFISK BWAAAAA

Torkoal burns clean and hot and you taste the heat not the meat
