Okay, so what are Pokemon made of? I've been playing these games for a long time, and even though they make it clear in their canon that there was the "First" named Arceus, and he made everything in the world [universe?] including Dialga, Palkia & Gigantor.
But this isn't about that.
Does anyone else think there is a great big hole in their stories? Pokemon are CLEARLY made of some sort of mechanical/electrical technology. Reasons below:
-Pokemon are stored in Pokeballs.
This is the biggest one for me. How is this possible, and why are these physics never questioned? The best theory is that Pokeballs collapse the pokemon's atoms, digitize them, and store them into the pokeball. This makes the most sense, but isn't this inhumane? It's like the theory of a teleporter - No one would ever teleport a human because you're essentially killing a human to create a carbon copy of that human elsewhere. If you were teleported - you yourself would be dead.
Solution: Pokemon are made of a technology that was created with the capabilities of being broken down and transferred to pokemon receptacles. Pokeballs are most likely charged like a battery in Pokecenters to keep their storage abilities intact.
-Pokemon can learn "Technical Machines" and "Hidden Machines."
TMs and HMs are discs that, when applied to a Pokemon, allow them to learn abilities they may or may not be able to naturally learn. I haven't even heard any theories on this - do any of you have some? It seems pretty self explanitory
Solution: Insert disc, install software.
-Trading Pokemon
Why can't people just give their pokemon to someone else? It has to be done as a "Trade" through some computerized medium. I also haven't heard any theories on this.
Solution: When a human becomes the owner of a Pokemon, they are identified to only that human and cannot take commands from others unless the ID changes in their coding. Pokemon have to be coded to latch on to you and only you unless digitally transferred to another owner, which changes their coding.
There are a few other things rolling around in my head, but these are the big ones. What do you all think? I think the Diamond/Pearl "histories" are full of archaic inaccuracies, because there are just so many holes now... Ever since I played Blue/Red, I thought pokemon were created by people with active imaginations, but now it's like they're legit animals that magically digitize themselves.
Thoughts? Am I crazy?
