>>52777096Arceus is a wandering space god who created a shapeshifting progenitor pokemon (Mew) and let it loose on Earth where its highly adaptive spawn took over the planet's ecosystems, replacing flora and fauna (and human caricatures and machinery, on occasion) with its own shambling nightmares over centuries of super-mutable evolution. It's only because of pokeball tech, human ingenuity, and Arceus feeling bad about the whole thing that society turned out okay.
Pokemon can adapt to fucking anything.
