>>55129083... do we even know if the professors believed in occulture? After checking the secret post-game scene and meet the real professor I don't get the feeling of them believing Heath nor occulture at all, the way they talk about how the book made their imagination run wild makes me think they knew it was bullshit, that's why their invention was a machine that pulls similar pokemon from other timelines and not simply different points of their own timeline.
That would also explain how such a genius was so fixated on the paradox pokemon, they knew the ones in the books were false, now the challenge was bringing them to Paldea from a world where they are real. Their paradoxes were real, the ones in the book... "I'm sure it's all made up", like Arven said.
