>>51826928this got me thinking, relicanths have been around for at least 100 million years without ever "changing its form" so that makes mew as a species even older. wonder what the first monster to diverge from mew is called and looks like?
but whats also weird is bulbapedo states on the super-ancient pokemon page that kyogre, groudon, and presumably rayqauaza as well were all spawned as avatars of the abundant natural energy surrounding hoenn just 3000 years ago, GF's favorite number for historical lore shit. so the weather legends are relatively recent beasts while mews and relicanths have been around for 100 million years?
