>>56829064>ImaginationPosits itself on Paradoxmons origin being predicated on the professor's desires. It's somewhat schizo because it attempts to tie the themes of the games together like "finding your dream" and the "treasure" hunt to Paradoxes even though they might not necessarily be connected like that at all.
The general (namesake) belief here is that the Paradox's true origin might be hinted at by the "Imagined Pokemon" in Heath's book and we won't know what it really is until we see Occulture issues #1-3 which are absent from the games.
>Time TravelPeople who didn't play the game / lack reading comprehension think Paradox Pokemon originate from different time periods, and then shifted the goalpost to alternate timelines after the DLC reaffirmed what the professor already said in the base game.
Time travel idea's core belief (post-DLC) is that because of the cascading loop at the crystal pool resembling time travel the professor MUST have been 100% correct about the Ancient/Futuristic Pokemon being from those time periods. Prior to the DLC, it was refusing to play the game past the credits, hence the numerous plotholes involved with simple time travel.
Both sides require some gymnastics to explain how Heath received his own manuscript, who he got it from, or how the professor the next universe over will complete the time machine without their childhood volume.
