I think Decidueye may be based on Stolas in addition to Robin Hood

The Ghost type of Decidueye comes from the fact that Stolas is a prince-commander of legions of hell and is an astronomy teacher/herbalism teacher

I think that new pre-evolutions of previously existing Pokemon from Gen 3 onwards are actually birth defects.

Why is it possible for there to be baby Wobbuffets and Wynauts?

You get Wynauts by using Lax Incense, and baby Wobbuffets without it. The incense actually causes birth defects, which gives you Wynauts instead of baby Wobbuffets.

People may intentionally breed for these "pre-evolutions" for whatever reason they may have. Kinda like how in real life, some people want "teacup" dogs, which are actually smaller/weaker versions of regular dogs, and may or may not be the result of cruel breeding practices.

I can only surmise that the local environment contains something that's causing a large number of pre-evolution effects.

Maybe Mirage Island has a bunch of plants growing that happens to be the key ingredient of Lax Incense.

I think they were planning on basing Fire starters on Journey to the West characters, using the fact that they already had a fire horse/fire dragon as a basis, but stopped because one of the Pilgrims of the Journey literally lives in a river, making it impossible to be a Fire starter

Charizard is Yu Lung, the pilgrim's horse (Rapidash) that is actually a dragon (Charizard) cursed to be a horse.

Typhlosion doesn't fit into that because they didn't think of it until gen 5, when the decided since they already have the monkey, they might as well do the pig, and they guessed the horse and the dragon could be things they already counted

Oddly the above one don't learn Perish Song and such like Dewgong does which has a different siren myth behind.
Not to forget some sirens looked more like harpies and had bird features instead of fish ones.

My bad, I misworded that. Not super common together, but super common traits.
A plethora of legs, pointed head, and a beak are all common traits, which make similarities of them very easily coincidental.
Now, if Giratina had a scaly back, and the legs were all small and bony, I could see a connection. That would be too many common traits, even if they are common traits.

Team Galactic thinks that Pory-Z is a failed project. It isn't. The Distortion World is just a fucked up, strange place where gravity doesn't obey normal laws. So, Porygon-Z adapted to a form that would best suit its purpose. That's why it has Adaptability.

There's an Upgrde in the Galactic Eterna building too.

I still haven't played Sun and Moon yet, (don't kill me..) but it's interesting that Colress uses a Porygon-Z in battle. Was he the one who created the Dubious Disc? That would imply he was working with Galactic, which is possible as we first see him working with Team Plasma, although he's not really on "their side," he just wants to conduct research.

Conidering that Minior's dex says that it will die if its shell breaks and it's left out for too long, it is likewise possible that when they die, they BECOME Cleffa.

No, I think Porygon-Z comes from elsewhere. Someone brought the Dubious Disc there... I believe that someone is Charon, but he has no idea what he tripped into.
