One lunatic's love-hate relationship with the Pokémon franchise, and his addled musings on its rights, wrongs, ins and outs. Come one, come all, and indulge my delusions of grandeur as I inflict my opinions on anyone within shouting distance.
When you said Red and Blue confirmed Marowak can have children, you’re forgetting the Kangaskhan theory that states inserting the marowak sprite and using the name marowak was a mistake; It was meant to be a ghost Kangaskhan. In Gold and Silver the pokemon tower and safari zone were removed and moved Kangaskhan and cubone together into the rock tunnel. Theory confirmed?
Ah, so your wild speculation is confirmed by someone else’s wild speculation?
Good, good. Carry on.
Choose 6 human-Pokemon pairs from the anime and pit them in a Hunger Games-style battle set in a map that is 1/3 Ilex Forest, 1/3 Dark Tunnel, and 1/3 Whirl Islands. Who will win?
Okay I don’t quite know what “Hunger Games-style” implies because I have only the vaguest familiarity with the series, but let’s see what we can do.

Eugh, Probopass; hands down. I have to have a disclaimer whenever I talk about Probopass that I know it’s based on a moai statue, and I still think it’s horrendous. It has flying drones called mini-noses. WTF.
Selfie?
UGH do you have any idea how bad I am with technology I can barely get my phone to link up to my laptop when I’m sober and I have no idea how to embed a picture in an answer to a question because TUMBLR MAKES EVERYTHING HARD FOR NO REASOn
I think you should drink while answering Q&A more often, heheh
CLEARLY I HAVE MADE A WISE DECISION
There’s a fair bit of ninja pokemon: Greninja, Ninjask, Accelgor, Toxicroak, etc. Just for fun I’m going to add a Ninja Type. The pokemon that gamefreak chooses to exude ninja-ness are mostly composed of Poison, Bug, Dark, and Fighting types, so if we put those traits together, it’s weaknesses include fire, flying, ground, fairy… oh no! Those are the worst common type weaknesses, and we should throw in a weakness to pirate type attacks, but at least it resists fighting and ghost.
While you’re at it, I have a few additional new Pokémon types to suggest:
– Light (blinds you with bright lights; Grass-types are immune)
– Sound (deafens you with loud noises; Grass-types are immune again, because f&%$ you, that’s why)
– Taste (incapacitates foes with overpowering spices; strong against Psychic)
– Steam (because we have Water and Ice)
– Science (Fairy and Science are weak against each other)
– Antimatter (using one against a Pokémon of a different type annihilates both of them)
– Human (is actually an enslaved Pokéfan in cosplay)
– Potassium (like Steel but weak against Water and strong against bananas)
– Furniture (is good to sit on)
– Scottish (strong against Rock, Steel, Dark and alcohol, weak against the English)
– Spiders (not like Ariados or whatever; actually made of millions of tiny spiders)
– Hard Cheese (should require no explanation)
– Soft Cheese (similar to Hard Cheese but obviously is softer)
Nice and informative goodra fact, but why you referred to it as a “she?” It seems the community wants to make goodra a female only Pokemon for some reason. Still, thanks for the insights, I liked them!
I offer no explanations, justifications or apologies for my brain’s subjective gendering of Pokémon designs (which often makes little sense even to me), nor do I expect such from others.
