>>54263113Pikablue was a rumor that existed before anyone saw Marrill. What you’re missing is that we weren’t using the internet to exchange information, it was almost entirely word of mouth. So a lot of rumors went around. Sounds primitive but it allowed for more mystery and surprises.
The era now where anyone can instantly look up anything using a pocket sized computer connected to the internet doesn’t allow for ‘fake’ rumors like Pikablue and Yoshi in Pokémon to exist for long.
