You know, even if this is just a placeholder, people aren't gonna let it go if it gets revealed to be something else. It'll be exactly like Missingno or Acornduck or Sadfish where it'll be stuck in the fandom years from now and people will look back and say they wish it got turned into a real one and it'll get the occasional art or joke about it.

If it is a real Pokemon, then placeholderfags still lose.
