>>56602975>Because they were never intended to have this in the games you retard. It's just basic writing exercises. These stories are extremely similar to real-world indigenous folklore, they were likely studying it so they could get an idea of how to come up with their own folklore.You need to calm down with your own intellectual arrogance anon, nothing you're saying is addressing what I'm talking about. I'm specifically dumbing myself down to engage with you.
>Because they were never intended to have this in the games you retard.This is unverifiable, we have no indication of how much they intended to keep when these stories were written. We just know that after they were written only a few vague lines ever made it in.
>These stories are extremely similar to real-world indigenous folklore..I'm well aware, everyone on this board is well aware. Nobody here is surprised or shocked to read these stories. It's just memes. Please recognize this.
My point was that regardless of what was or wasn't supposed to make it in, the fact that it was penned is going to be surprising to people who see pokemon as completely toothless. I.e. the vast majority of casual pokemon fans. The exercise is also rendered moot given none of the lessons are applied in game, what we got were exceedingly vague lines because the details themselves were obviously beyond the pale for a children's game lol.
>>56603047I think people have this penchant for assuming they're the smartest one in the room so their obvious ""observations"" are taken as novel which causes them to assume people are earnestly stupid, rather than just joking around.
