In these games, Humans appear to exist. But in Gates to Infinity humans didnt exist, it's weird. Different universes confirmed

PMD is like the only Pokemon franchise with an actual story to even care about.
Not to mention that it's specifically praised for its story repeatedly by many people.

>>12471073 Dumbest thing I've ever read.
Let's say there someone who has never played pokemon and we were to show them Venonat and Butterfree, they would naturally assume that they're related in some way. Does that mean that this person is autistic?

>>12471117 yes. a nonautistic person would say a butterfly comes from a cocoon and a caterpillar.

>>12471152 That's not what I asked. I didn't ask about caterpie and metapod. Only venonat and butterfree.

I picked my partner as Treeko and pretended that it was Grovyle in an alternate universe/ past.

>>12469707 There was evidence of humans in Explorers? I know there's abandoned laboratories in Rescue Team but that's it I think?

>>12472525 If you actually played Explorers, you'd know that the main character is actually a Trainer that came with his/her Grovyle to the island. Therefore, it's not some kind of self-insert you're playing as like in Red/blue, but a full-fledged main character that may have come from any Regions in Pokemon.

>>12469009 So what did you guys had for Mc/Partner?
I had Chamander/Squirtle in Red and same mc with Chikorita in Darkness.

>>12472516 I added personality traits because this is my head canon? Not sure what you want as an answer.

Quoted By:
>>12472562 In Darkness, I got Cyndaquil as mc, and I picked Treecko as my partner.
It's been a long time since I've played Blue, but I'm pretty sure that what I got was about the same.

Quoted By:
>>12472562 I've replayed both a lot of times but my first for both games was Totodile as the MC and Chikorita as the partner.
In Explorers I pretended that they were the same characters in an alternate universe.

>>12472567 You mostly just described the characters though.

Everyone's player will probably be pretty different. I've seen many interpretations of the partner and Grovyle, I wouldn't say that any single interpretation is more correct than another.

>>12471162 But Venonat is not a caccoon or a catepillar. We learn how butterflies work very early in our lives. And if you saw a not caccoon, would you assume it becomes a butterfly?

>>12472567 You don't seem to understand headcanon. You're not supposed to look at a character with an established personality and be like NOPE NOT MUH CHARACTER

>>12472664 Okay, then it's a FF concept based on Explorers. Happy?
