I'm really loving the memes, but if you read the original text it really comes across more as like mythology. In hindsight, it's obvious why it wasn't put into any English release games.

The recent Game Freak hack leaked a bunch of story ideas for Pokeverse mythology, and some of them (like the Typhlosion one) are sus as hell.

Girl gets tricked into marrying a typhlosion and then she and her human baby born of this union turn into typhlosion because the other villagers throw a typhlosion pelt on them

Like I said ancient mythology type stuff, no more racy than anything Zeus got up to

I mean, I agree that that's what they were going for, but it still skeeved me out reading it and I'm glad they didn't actually make it canon.

They've basically confirmed what fans have suspected happens offscreen.

This has illuminated two things to me:

  1. if humans still had egg groups, they'd be in the Field group. Which is the single largest egg group in the national dex iirc.

  2. The Pokemon Fan Club guy in Vermilion with the Rapidash he talks about cuddling when he sleeps is not beating the allegations.
