>>26817511>unreasonable fearsNah, not always. They're usually with perfect reason, triggered by a traumatic event or raw human instinct, in most cases.
My buddy has a fear of moths- mottephobia- which spawned from a particularly bad experience with a whole fuckton of them at once at a young age, for example.
As well, the fears of rodents, spiders, and snakes, for example, are all theorized to stem from a primal association of these things with disease and death and death, respectively. (It's usually stuff our ancient ancestors associated with death or illness.)
The only "unreasonable" fears are the ones that hardly make a lick of justifiable sense, like a fear of hats or some shit.
Maybe that guy has severe moth trauma, who knows.
>>26828341It's very definitely not. Fuck that thing, that thing just screams "death".
>>26813183>NC>MothmanBitch you fucking what? I'm a fucking West Canadian and I know that Mothman is WV's cryptid more than it is NC's
NC has had sightings, yeah, but it's WV's cryptid, as it's blamed for the 1966 collapse of the Silver Bridge in Point Pleasant, WV following a night filled with sightings of the creature across Point Pleasant
Learn you some cryptids, boy
>>26831378>Zapdos is the Thunderbird>Ho-oh is a phoenix, if you still consider the phoenix a cryptid (I don't)>Could Meganium be inspired at all by Mokele-Mbembe? I mean, it's a sauropod, it has three claws, the Grass typing fits a jungle theme... it's a fair suggestion if we're suggesting Lapras is Nessie, imo.
