This is for how things work in pokemon universe, not "hurrr Whitney has big bewbs" or "hurrr N is a Zoroark xD" or "hurrr every character is related and here's the family tree"

>fossil pokemon were rock type to begin with, either because only they could be fossilized/restored, most pokemon back then were rock type, or the sturdy rock pokemon survived a mass extinction event
>Gym leaders and Elite 4 are equally powerful--it's a matter of wanting to test strong trainers vs wanting to help inexperienced trainers, and position availability
>Gym leaders use different pokemon based on the challenger's level/strategy (Cheren and PWT pretty much confirm)
>Pokedex entries are just exaggerations, urban legends, and assumptions that characteristics of one pokemon is common throughout its species
>Animals never existed in the pokemon universe
>myths about legends are just that--Groudon/Kyogre do terraform and Dialga/Palkia do have powers over time/space but they're just powerful pokemon who didn't create the world
>Pokemon moves have special magical power--a pidgey's peck is far more powerful than a pigeon's peck
>Pokemon can "turn off" their abilities so that they don't poison their trainers and shit
