>>35422244>thats all headcanonthe point was to make sense of a type and how it fits in pokemon, not what the developrs actually had in mind.
>Explain how Decidueye gains a ghost type without dying.it spossible that ghost type doesnt neccessarily mean the pokemon is dead. Perhaps decidueye gains powers like a ghost to shift in and out of the physical realm, much like other ghosts.
>Explain poison type moves that don't inflict the poison status, at that point its segregation of story and gameplay, but one could argue that not all poisons are actually poisons and are more like biohazards and in some cases acids, such that when removed they no longer have an ill effect on a pokemon
>or better yet how all pokemon can learn Toxic and so all have high concentrations of poison in their bodies but aren't all poison typethey shit on the opponent and give them e coli?
>aqua tailwhat about it?
> Explain Zen headbutt not being normal or fighting typeas described earlier, since psychic type exists as a type, clearly theres a sort of psyhic energy that exists in pokemon that it can be attributed as such. whether its fuckign demons or dark matter, its a moot point since were describing physical laws that dont exist in the real world
>Explain Dark pulse in the context of dark type not being literally dark energy.two ways to do this. as stated before segregation of story and gameplay, but also dark pulse is described as being literal ill will in wave form, and not as darkness. i could also argue that sometimes moves are made with out strict adherance to logic, such as spatial rend and roar of time being dragon type despite having no obvious ties to that type
> Explain the ability color change, or Arceus' platesfor color change, its obvious isnt it? the pokemon has special chemical amke up that allows it to change its attributes on the fly. and come one, you want me to explain how a god has control over its being?
