>>32863980>(although Zinnia is not the most reliable storyteller thanks to her mental state)Anon, are you really telling me not to assume things while you think /vp/ memes are true? Zinnia is badly written, but she didn't have a mental issue. Everything she said is, at the very least, as believable as other characters telling the lore are.
>But seriously? You're trying to claim that just because they happened to be true some of the time in this magical world, they must also be true for all the rest?Yes, as you said, the world is "magical", so the fact that its not plausible isn't relevant.
The entire plot of the games hinges on the fact those legends are true. Otherwise, Cyrus, Lysandre and the like's plan would be moot. Their plans fail because the player stops them which is why we don't see literally everything, but we have to know why this motherfucker capturing Palkia is a relevant thing. Otherwise the stakes are as big as them capturing a Pidgey. Hence we get the myths, for story telling purposes. It isn't open on interpretation that they can do what they're supposed to do because them being able to is what the entire thing is about. Game Freak words them as myths, or as things that are "said" because the LEGENDARY pokémon are, and this would be obvious to any non retard, LEGENDS in-universe. Hence we call them legends ( or mythical, its the same logic), despite us knowing they are there because we see them in, like, the game covers. To keep this narrative they have to treat legends in-universe as legends hence the wording. If the wording was different you would then be complaining about people treating legends as legends.
>You just state these things without any basis, the same as I, because we're not Game Freak.At least you admit you have no basis. And I'm one of the few people here that knows we don't work at Game Freak but at least I did play the games. My basis is the times we do see the powers stated in legends to be true being true.
