>>47345251First of all, you're a turbo autist if you think falling for misconceptions makes you "disqualified" to discuss the lore of a video game franchise. Second of all:
>>Pokemon only say their namesNo one who cares enough about this series to have lore discussions about it thinks this.
>>Pokemon say their names at allEevee and Pikachu do whether you like it or not
>>The anime is canonIt isn't any more or less canon than the games. It's a separate continuity, it's relationship to main games is the same as the MCU is to the comics.
>>Animals don't exist/were retconned outThey were retconned. They've never appeared in game, and the last time they were referred to was in a couple dex entries in games that came out nearly 20 years ago.
>>Humans are PokemonThere are good reasons to believe this if you haven't seen the quote where Masuda says otherwise.
>>Pokemon isn’t set on EarthUsed to be, but that got retconned. While the regions are heavily based on real world places, they're also heavily different to the point that the Pokémon world can't be Earth.
