>>52457853>>by the time iron thorns will be made, all lifeforms in our stellar system will be dead after the death of the sunI feel the need to “Um aktchually” this one: Assuming the Pokémon world’s Sun is comparable to our own, it should be around and still relatively healthy by 1 billion years from now.

That does mean that’ll be around the time all biological life begins its final trajectory towards universally dying off. But even once that’s done, that’s done, there’s nothing stopping mechanical life forms from persisting for a long ass time provided they can repair themselves and don’t require water. (There’s like a dozen different things they could power themselves on which would still be around)
Also, as others have pointed out, the Pokédex entries come from a sensationalist rag making wild, baseless, and sometimes provably wrong or impossible, guesses about the actual nature of weird creatures people purportedly saw. That doesn’t mean the creatures didn’t necessarily exist or weren’t genuinely spotted, or that they weren’t actually from the future or the past. Just that the pop-paranormal mag picking up and reporting those sightings don’t know shit about what they really are. (Which is why most of the descriptions have nothing to do with time travel anyways)
