Here's a small one that floated around my school back in the day: [In game] MissingNO. was actually a failed Porygon prototype that escaped into the wild and went rogue, (becoming a virus itself) which 'explains' its glitched appearance, why it messes with the in game PC (mainly the E4 hall of fame) and why it's listed as #000 when you do catch it.
But how did Looker have the Audinite? Is it possible it was an ordinary rock, but exposure the the Ultra Wormhole's energy turned it into a mega stone?
I think that's just because Kangaskhan is a motherly Pokemon, so it defends Cubone, not exactly that Kangaskhan IS the mother of Cubone. Psyduck can call Zubat in seaward cave, doesn't mean that they are related.
Remember that cubone is a special case however.. it wears the skull of its mother. Maybe the death of a kangeskhan changes the babies typing. So if mom dies the baby becomes and cubone then Marowak, if she lives she becomes a kengeskhan. Somewhat like an exposure to an evolution stone?
@@shaiden5052 The leaked demos of the old games showcases that Cubone and Kangaskhan was in the same evolution line at one point. They are 100% related.
It's nice to see someone else appreciate Ovi and his theories. As for me, my favorite Kanto theory (besides the Ditto/Mew thing) is that Gengar was the shadow of a Clefable. It's kind of been debunked by one of Gengar's newer Pokedex entries, but it's still a really cool way of connecting two of my favorite Pokemon.
Bro don't ever let ignorant, uncultured, play-it-safe corporate suits ruin a good story with their childish retconning. Gengar *IS* a shadow (or some other weird relation) to Clefable in gen 1. Evidence in a fictional story stands on its own merit, regardless of what the "keepers" try to change it to be later on. The Star Wars EU is a perfect case-in-point. Disney tried to tell the entire SW fanbase that the EU is now non-canon, and the fanbase gave disney the collective middle finger in response.
My favorite has got to be that Blue joined Team Rocket on Nugget Bridge. There's a Gnoggin video for anyone who's unfamiliar with it, it's very convincing.
Definitely a great channel with phenomenal investigative journalistic practices and hard work ethic. I guess the reason why it's underrated is mainly cause of the name of the channel relating more to basketball and hip hop despite it not producing any of that content whatsoever lol
the SS. Anne most certainly fell into the ultra wormhole, but people thought it just crashed when it came back through wrecked in a random place, boom theory confirmed
They wanted the fossils to have a powerful ancient pokemon hopefully stronger than mewtwo. The guy who owned the pokemon mansion worked with rocket to create mewtwo so they almost certainly knew fossils could be brought back on cinnabar. And they wanted Mr. Fuji to try and calm mewtwo in lavender town. The poke flute not only wakes up pokemon, it calms them I believe. Or plays a pleasant melody or something. Or maybe Giovanni was just collecting pokemon to be the best gym leader by being a gangster type.
>"Mewtwo was of course created by Team Rocket" Anime only. In the games it's implied he was created by Mr Fuji, or at least he had a heavy role to play in the team of scientists who created Mewtwo. There's nothing in the games that ever implies Team Rocket ever had anything to do with Mewtwos creation. Also kinda fucked up to say Team Rocket isn't evil when they murdered a Marowak for literally no reason lol
Awesome video. Glad to hear you're doing Kanto centric videos. I've been playing since Gen I. I had heard the theory of Looker was the office in the S.S. Anne, didn't know it was so intricate.
Dont forget pokemon generations showed that looker was on the trail on team rocket and infiltrated giovanni's gym(viridian gym) so he was in kanto for certainly
My favorite Kanto theory is that the original sprites for Butterfree and Venomoth were accidentally switched during development! There's A LOT of evidence to back it up!
So my favorite Pokémon might have been an unexpected consequence of a noble attempt to stop the threat that Mewtwo posed to the world? That's pretty friggin' cool! :)
Not a theory but you start from pallet and go through and get the badges of the cities (pewter,cerulean,vermillion,celadon,fuchsia,cinnabar,viridian) all of which are colors and when you become the champion, the team of Pokémon you put together and your journey as a whole is a nice painting and as you put it away never to use it again you can marvel at the painting thinking of the fun times you had
I think there's more to the Looker being the same Global Police Agent from R/B/Y & FRLG on the S.S. Anne that you're overlooking that makes it more sketchy. It's sketchy because of the likelihood that ORAS doesn't happen concurrently with RSE, and instead it's more concurrently with X&Y. Because among other reasons, Porygon was stated to have been created roughly 20 Years ago in the SUMO & USUM Pokedex. The technology advancement of Pokemon display it's age. It would mean Looker would've had to have been unconscious because of the S.S. Anne crash and falling through an Ultra Wormhole for roughly 18 Years, and then wash up on shore in ORAS to found May/Brendan because that's the likely time span between RBY and ORAS. Unless Looker came from an universe where the events of RBY & FRLG happen concurrently with ORAS later in the timeline. Maybe he's the Looker from the Pokemon Let's Go Universe, and he'll appear on the S.S. Anne in Let's Go this time rather than an generic sprite. I like the theory, but there's definitely more there to look out for as games come out.
That last theory can't work considering the fact that Looker is in Sinnoh in the non-mega evolution timeline, which takes place after the Gen 1 games, unless we ignore the fact that there are alternate realities and assume that he was in Kanto, woke up in Hoenn, went to Sinnoh to stop Team Galactic later, stopped the sages in Unova, went to Kalos after that, and then started working in Alola. Although some people theorize that the events of ORAS take place after the events of Sinnoh in their alternate world. Meaning that Looker never woke up in Hoenn after he was in Kanto (if he was ever was in Kanto, although the Generations episodes suggest that he was). He was in Sinnoh and went to Unova after that, then became a faller and woke up in Hoenn.
Working on my own Pokemon series with a friend, maybe, once things are finished or something, I could share the ideas with you. Love your channel, keep up the good work, and happy holidays!
I think there's something to the "Team rocket were the good guys" theory... except for the "good guys" part. The reasoning could all be true, except instead of doing these things to *stop* mewtwo, it was to obtain him to use to take over everything.
The theory is that Cubone is Charmander without it's tail being lit is what I thought you were gonna talk about instead I got a new one with Kangeskhan
My interpretation of Team Rocket’s real plan (which I’ve seen others online also have) is that they were looking to create another Mewtwo that they could control more easily, hence them hunting for fossils, but ultimately were forced to steal the Master Ball to try and catch Mewtwo when some kid from Pallet Town started to mess with their plans
... Anabel is the Faller, not Looker. Looker is never confirmed to be a Faller and he even introduces Anabel as the Faller and not himself. Therefore the last theory is not debunked
What if USUM Looker is the original of that world.... meaning that there are 2 Lookers in in the USUM timeline But it doesn't make sense because ORAS is in the S&M timeline not USUM (RBYG,GSC,RSE,DPPt,BW-2) Different timelines and same universe (XY,ORAS,S&M)--------USUM Different timelines, same universe (LetsGoPE) New separate universe but kinda sorta related to USUM universe only cuz of Variants (Gen8 ) Start of a new multi-timelined Universe My thoughts are scattered I need to focus and
I'm still under the impression that the "Cubone is a baby Kangaskhan" theory is wrong. The evidence that supports it support the "Cubone is a baby Charizard" theory better. And, personally, I think it's the latter.
Yeah, but Cubone doesn't look like Charizard color wise (And most evolution lines have similair colorings, especially in gen 1), which debunks that theory. Also, i personally think Kangaskhan was supposed to be a Normal/Ground type and that it gained the Normal type upon evolving from Marowak. Cubone - Marowak - Kangaskhan. They could have made the same reasoning they used for Gorochu however: Marowaks stats make it a final evolution and thus they split up the evolution line.
The skull on Cubone's head doesn't even look like a Kangaskhan's skull. It's too pointed and the "ears" are in the wrong place for a Kangaskhan, but not for a Charizard (also, ears aren't bone, so they wouldn't be on a skull). As for coloring, it looks like de-saturated Charmander. I'm not saying Cubone was supposed to be in Charizard's evolution line, I'm saying since "Cubonewears the skull of its dead mother", the skull is most likely Charizard's and not Kangaskhan's.
The theory is not even good. Cubone can't be Kangaskhan because of the skull and the typing (also the fact it can't evolve). So no kanga. As for Charmander, no. The colot scheme isn't accurate and it shoukd have a flame. "But that's just a mutation!" Nah, it's like you'd be born without your kidneys. Debunked
The thing with Looker on the S.S Anne is this: We know Nanu was a part of the Police Department too and he knows Looker, so it could also have been him on the S.S Anne.
I think the TR theory about being good guys can work if the context was that they decided to go about their plans in evil ways as if to say doing something right (trying to stop Mewtwo) for all the wrong reasons (multiple and unethical attempts to fulfill that objective) to correct something wrong (creating an unstable Mewtwo) for all the right reasons (not sure what their initial goal of what creating Mewtwo would have done for them).
For the Cubone Theory: You missed out how, in Pokemon (Ultra) Sun and Moon, Cubone and Kangaskhan are both found in Wela Volcano Park. Furthermore, Cubone's SOS call can spawn a Kangaskhan. The latter is especially noteworthy since there aren't many SOS calls that don't call the same exact species, and those that do either call another member of its evolutionary family, a predator (i.e. Corsola calls Mareanie, Carbink calls Sableye), related Pokemon (like Togedemaru calls Dedenne and vice versa), and location specific Pokemon (like Trumbeak in Lush Garden and Happiny, itself only available as a SOS ally).
Some people believe that the appearance of the Global Police agent in Let's Go Pikachu and Eevee decomfirms that Looker was ever on the S.S. Anne... but it just occurred to me that Looker is a master of disguise and that if he was going to go undercover, he'd probably dress the part. I'm not really sure why I've never seen anyone bring this up before.
I like the charizard cubone theory. Cubone is a charmanader wearing a charizard skull (if the parent zard lights its tail its a mander if the mom dies cubone wears the skull)
I don’t consider the “good guy rocket” theory and the “ditto-failed clone” theory as possible. The reason is that despite Mewtwo is a clone and a team rocket experiment in both anime and manga, it is never said that in the game. In the Pokemon mansion you can read that Mew gave birth to Mewtwo and so it gives us an hint that Mewtwo was a baby mew that Fuji genetically modified (for this reason the Pokédex talk about these experiments as cruel and for this reason Mewtwo is considered so evil in its heart, he hate humans not for the fact that they created it, but because it suffered hell for their experiments). Being a modified Pokémon and not a clone, Fuji didn’t really needed to clone Mew, so no failed experiments could have been created. Ditto is a blob because this kind of body help it to change is shape, change your form is easier if you don’t one. And finally no reference of team rocket involvement in Mewtwo’s creation is made in both the Pokemon game nor Pokemon Origins, were only Fuji is referenced and Giovanni seems oblivious of Mewtwo existence. In USUM Giovanni as a Mewtwo only because he gained control of the world and the monopoly of master balls so capturing a Pokemon like Mewtwo that was in Kanto in that period wasn’t a real problem.
plus cause of ultra sun and moon it confirms that team rocket in an alterntive timeline won and took control of the world with mewtwo so i dont think its all that true
Cloning in our real world involves birth. I know a lot of the time we picture testube clones, but currently we simply insert DNA into an egg cell. Then place that cell into a female where it can properly develop. We haven't figured out how to do it any other way. You could say in fiction it's different, but it would make a lot more sense if cloning were the same in our world. For 1 while easier, placing an egg into a female has a high failure rate. Likewise even clones that do start to develop don't usually develop properly after birth. The failure rate is extremely high, and even alive clones aren't right most of the time. This would explain ditto perfectly. But Mewtwo was probably a clone who already had his dna modified before being inserted into mew as an egg.
i find the claim that ditto in gen 1 is found in the mansion as a reason to say he is a failed clone, he was only found there in yellow, in r/b/g he was not located there at all.
New theory...Platinum exists in a Universe where Looker never fell through the Ultra Wormhole...but Diamond and Pearl are in the Universe where he did...which is why he's not present in those games.
Thank goodness that man standing in front of the cave was there! Or else Mewtwo would have caused a lot of trouble 🙏 Legend says the man wears shorts because they are very comfortable to wear
However, the biggest Kanto theory was not include, and that is... Giovanni is Ash is father. At some point in the game Red is mother tells you that you father when out one day in the persude of pokemon and never return. Apperently he bacame to obsses. And the things that Giovanni tells when you fight him and defeats him,, hints you that he could your father. That he was that hotshot trainer that one day care about pokemon and that fire, (the one that your mom remembers) but then went astray. But you remind him of him, when he was younger. When I was 15 paying Blue, I took the hint and said. OMG thats his Father! Thats the biggest Kanto theory and to this day I think is true.
Mew can learn all Pokémon moves because it has the DNA of all Pokémon (I think) ditto also has the DNA of all Pokémon which is why it can transform into anything and use any move.
Cubone is actually a baby kangaskhan that has a mutation that makes it grow spikes on its back too early in its life and it ends up stabbing the mother kangaskahn while it's in her pouch until she eventually dies. Cubone is actually the killer of its own mother! DUN DUN DUNNNNN
And then Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon prove that Team Rocket was indeed in need to get the Master Ball in order to tame Mewtwo...so they could rule the world
I belive cubone was originaly a alternative version of charmander. My favourite pokemon kanto theories are: 1. War before games Red/Green events. 2. Red is dead in Gold and Silver.
For the Looker theory, Bird Keeper Toby and Almighty Arceus just proposed that ORAS is disjointed in time from RSE, and provided a lot of ingame evidence for it. I suppose that Ultra Wormholes could also disjoint time, though.
I have a theory about Jessie and James. Basically, when they were training to become members of team Rocket, they encountered Mewtwo while it was in Giovani's possession. Giovani used Mewtwo to brainwash Jessie and James into catching the most powerful pokemon they could find, then the next day, they encounter Ash and Pikachu and because of the large explosion, it is engraved in their minds that Pikachu is the strongest pokemon. So they follow Ash for pikachu like an obsession because Mewtwo inceptioned them.
More addition in team rocket kidnapping mr.fuji, or what we all know dr.fuji, the one who start the experiment on cloning mew, i think they kidnapped dr.fuji to know what mewtwo weaknesses incase to stop mewtwo.
Team rocket WAS trying to go after Mewtwo. But not to save the world. Team Rocket's whole MO was to try and get rare and powerful pokemon to wreak havoc. That being said, their pursuit to create ghost pokemon might have been why they killed the marowak that became an angry spirit and the pursuit of that new ghost pokemon would be why they climbed the tower, as current existing ghost pokemon had a disadvantageous poison dual type and no STAB moves and were actually useless against Mewtwo. The new pure ghost type that the player subdues might not have had that issue.
I have a theory, which I hope maybe it would be noticed one day.. That Classic Gen 1 only happened. Think about it, if other kids are doing bigger and better things then why do people later on only recognize Red and Blue and never the others? Why is it that there are only 151 pkmn in Gen 1 and Prof. Oak not being aware that there is more despite him being a genius when it comes to Pokemon? Seriously why would he say all the pkmn in the world if there were more? I believe that all the kids in each gen (after Gen 1) imagine them doing their own adventures that were "more awesome" (Which I think is dumb because I really like the gen 1 games and no I am not a veteran I became a fan 4 years ago) That's why there is alternate dimensions and work holes, mega evolution and everything. And also FR & LG are actually a. documentary about Red's adventure. There! Hope you enjoyed! Plz like or reply on this comment!
They try to steal the master ball from Silph Co, but by being nice they just give the master ball to you. Then you go clean up Team Rocket's Mewtwo mess. They are definitely the bad guys.
Yeah...the Team Rocket one falls apart with the killing of Marowak and the illegal Game Corner plot. I don't doubt that they are after Mewtwo, but it definitely isn't a noble cause. We see what happens when Giovanni does win in Ultra S/M.
Also looker is technically in lets go, a mega timeline game if it really is him so in the original timeline where he first appears is likely a timeline where he doesnt wash ashore in hoenn, perhaps the ss anne doesnt crash or what have you in said timeline.
Team Rocket being good has no weight whatsoever. The thing that proves this is that they caused the Mewtwo problem in the first place. They made Mewtwo to control the world, so all efforts to capture Mewtwo makes them still evil, and at best trying to stop him is a neutral action at best that is still invalidated by their evil actions in general.
Here's a small one that floated around my school back in the day: [In game] MissingNO. was actually a failed Porygon prototype that escaped into the wild and went rogue, (becoming a virus itself) which 'explains' its glitched appearance, why it messes with the in game PC (mainly the E4 hall of fame) and why it's listed as #000 when you do catch it.
Bruh don't even get me started on it.... I'll be typing a whole thesis before I know it haha
Gnoggin made a video on this theory. I personally wish GF came out and recognized Missingno.
But how did Looker have the Audinite? Is it possible it was an ordinary rock, but exposure the the Ultra Wormhole's energy turned it into a mega stone?
or it was a regular stone that was found but it was unknowen and couldnt be studied as they didnt have the tech to scan or use it
No mention of Gen7 being able to have kangaskhan call in cubone
I think that's just because Kangaskhan is a motherly Pokemon, so it defends Cubone, not exactly that Kangaskhan IS the mother of Cubone. Psyduck can call Zubat in seaward cave, doesn't mean that they are related.

One of my favourite theories is that Bruno was the original gym leader/karate master of the saffron city dojo.
Karate master lives in Johto. You can encounter him at Mt. mortar.
I'm still under the impression that the "Cubone is a baby Kangaskhan" theory is wrong. The evidence that supports it support the "Cubone is a baby Charizard" theory better. And, personally, I think it's the latter.

You are forgetting the biggest peice of evidence for the kangaskhan theory in sun and moon if you sos chain cubone it can call a kangaskhan
The theory is not even good. Cubone can't be Kangaskhan because of the skull and the typing (also the fact it can't evolve). So no kanga.
As for Charmander, no. The colot scheme isn't accurate and it shoukd have a flame.
"But that's just a mutation!"
Nah, it's like you'd be born without your kidneys.
Debunked
The cuebone being a baby Charizard has too much hyperbole over real evidence. It being a Kangaskhan baby is more likely and supported by game data.
The thing with Looker on the S.S Anne is this: We know Nanu was a part of the Police Department too and he knows Looker, so it could also have been him on the S.S Anne.

For the Cubone Theory: You missed out how, in Pokemon (Ultra) Sun and Moon, Cubone and Kangaskhan are both found in Wela Volcano Park. Furthermore, Cubone's SOS call can spawn a Kangaskhan. The latter is especially noteworthy since there aren't many SOS calls that don't call the same exact species, and those that do either call another member of its evolutionary family, a predator (i.e. Corsola calls Mareanie, Carbink calls Sableye), related Pokemon (like Togedemaru calls Dedenne and vice versa), and location specific Pokemon (like Trumbeak in Lush Garden and Happiny, itself only available as a SOS ally).
Good Stuff Hoops!
Thank you!!
Bro wild Koffing. 'Nuff said.
Team Rocket tried to kill Cubone and Marowak because they thought that they would become ghost types
Another grate video for a grate website
Thank you!!
I love that Team Rocket theory xD
I think the most interesting theory is how Gengar is supposed to be Clefable's evil shadow.
Nice theories
who knows these are answered through the side quests in let's go games.
That last one holds up pretty good
That Looker one with the 2 part connection is TOO good to not Luv. I can dig it
Look at Koffing all happy then Weezing looks like its suffering
Yey! Being a genwunner makes me loves these theories..
Tries to save Kanto from the problem they created
I've never been this early for one your videos, nice
Great video. My favourite one was the theory that Ditto is a failed clone of Mew
Thank you!!
Some people believe that the appearance of the Global Police agent in Let's Go Pikachu and Eevee decomfirms that Looker was ever on the S.S. Anne... but it just occurred to me that Looker is a master of disguise and that if he was going to go undercover, he'd probably dress the part. I'm not really sure why I've never seen anyone bring this up before.
galairian weezing knocks the coffing and weezing theory out
Haven't heard of the first one. Glad I watched.
Also, "To protect the world from devastation..."
Team Rocket didn't want to save anyone. They just wanted to not get in trouble for Mewtwo getting loose.
I like the charizard cubone theory. Cubone is a charmanader wearing a charizard skull (if the parent zard lights its tail its a mander if the mom dies cubone wears the skull)
I don’t consider the “good guy rocket” theory and the “ditto-failed clone” theory as possible.
The reason is that despite Mewtwo is a clone and a team rocket experiment in both anime and manga, it is never said that in the game.
In the Pokemon mansion you can read that Mew gave birth to Mewtwo and so it gives us an hint that Mewtwo was a baby mew that Fuji genetically modified (for this reason the Pokédex talk about these experiments as cruel and for this reason Mewtwo is considered so evil in its heart, he hate humans not for the fact that they created it, but because it suffered hell for their experiments).
Being a modified Pokémon and not a clone, Fuji didn’t really needed to clone Mew, so no failed experiments could have been created.
Ditto is a blob because this kind of body help it to change is shape, change your form is easier if you don’t one.
And finally no reference of team rocket involvement in Mewtwo’s creation is made in both the Pokemon game nor Pokemon Origins, were only Fuji is referenced and Giovanni seems oblivious of Mewtwo existence.
In USUM Giovanni as a Mewtwo only because he gained control of the world and the monopoly of master balls so capturing a Pokemon like Mewtwo that was in Kanto in that period wasn’t a real problem.
plus cause of ultra sun and moon it confirms that team rocket in an alterntive timeline won and took control of the world with mewtwo so i dont think its all that true
Cloning in our real world involves birth. I know a lot of the time we picture testube clones, but currently we simply insert DNA into an egg cell. Then place that cell into a female where it can properly develop. We haven't figured out how to do it any other way.
You could say in fiction it's different, but it would make a lot more sense if cloning were the same in our world. For 1 while easier, placing an egg into a female has a high failure rate. Likewise even clones that do start to develop don't usually develop properly after birth. The failure rate is extremely high, and even alive clones aren't right most of the time. This would explain ditto perfectly. But Mewtwo was probably a clone who already had his dna modified before being inserted into mew as an egg.
team rocket is evil. this theory of them being good people is stupid.
they litetally say that in-game that they are evil and only use pokemon.
i find the claim that ditto in gen 1 is found in the mansion as a reason to say he is a failed clone, he was only found there in yellow, in r/b/g he was not located there at all.
Love your video's Hoops.
Thank you so much!!
New theory...Platinum exists in a Universe where Looker never fell through the Ultra Wormhole...but Diamond and Pearl are in the Universe where he did...which is why he's not present in those games.
Thank goodness that man standing in front of the cave was there! Or else Mewtwo would have caused a lot of trouble 🙏 Legend says the man wears shorts because they are very comfortable to wear
The 'Good Guy' Rocket theory is interesting. And it's also not incompatible with 'Evil Organization' Rocket either!
I like the second theory with kanguskong who is one of my favourite Pokémon as it can only be found in my country in Pokémon go
Anyone remember when the little girl in celadon said she liked pressing her face against her koffing and that it was faintly see through?
However, the biggest Kanto theory was not include, and that is... Giovanni is Ash is father. At some point in the game Red is mother tells you that you father when out one day in the persude of pokemon and never return. Apperently he bacame to obsses. And the things that Giovanni tells when you fight him and defeats him,, hints you that he could your father. That he was that hotshot trainer that one day care about pokemon and that fire, (the one that your mom remembers) but then went astray. But you remind him of him, when he was younger. When I was 15 paying Blue, I took the hint and said. OMG thats his Father! Thats the biggest Kanto theory and to this day I think is true.
Mew can learn all Pokémon moves because it has the DNA of all Pokémon (I think) ditto also has the DNA of all Pokémon which is why it can transform into anything and use any move.
Cubone is actually a baby kangaskhan that has a mutation that makes it grow spikes on its back too early in its life and it ends up stabbing the mother kangaskahn while it's in her pouch until she eventually dies. Cubone is actually the killer of its own mother! DUN DUN DUNNNNN
And then Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon prove that Team Rocket was indeed in need to get the Master Ball in order to tame Mewtwo...so they could rule the world
I wish we got more on Looker like a full miniseries of anime or something, it's really interesting :D
SAME
In Pokemon origins Red had mega charizard
The 3rd & 4th theories are cool.
The fact team rocket wants to stop mewtwo is legit i think but they dont make it out of good heart, but they want use it for their own purpose.
I belive cubone was originaly a alternative version of charmander.
My favourite pokemon kanto theories are:
1. War before games Red/Green events.
2. Red is dead in Gold and Silver.
For the Looker theory, Bird Keeper Toby and Almighty Arceus just proposed that ORAS is disjointed in time from RSE, and provided a lot of ingame evidence for it.
I suppose that Ultra Wormholes could also disjoint time, though.
I have a theory about Jessie and James. Basically, when they were training to become members of team Rocket, they encountered Mewtwo while it was in Giovani's possession. Giovani used Mewtwo to brainwash Jessie and James into catching the most powerful pokemon they could find, then the next day, they encounter Ash and Pikachu and because of the large explosion, it is engraved in their minds that Pikachu is the strongest pokemon. So they follow Ash for pikachu like an obsession because Mewtwo inceptioned them.
More addition in team rocket kidnapping mr.fuji, or what we all know dr.fuji, the one who start the experiment on cloning mew, i think they kidnapped dr.fuji to know what mewtwo weaknesses incase to stop mewtwo.
Hi hoops! How's your day?
Good! Hope yours is good as well!
The before-the-cut-stare is unsetling.
I really like that new intro.
The dead Raticate thing is convincing too.
Cant wait for the meltan theories as soon as we get more information about it
Deadly drinking game: Take a shot every time he says pokemon
Team rocket WAS trying to go after Mewtwo. But not to save the world. Team Rocket's whole MO was to try and get rare and powerful pokemon to wreak havoc. That being said, their pursuit to create ghost pokemon might have been why they killed the marowak that became an angry spirit and the pursuit of that new ghost pokemon would be why they climbed the tower, as current existing ghost pokemon had a disadvantageous poison dual type and no STAB moves and were actually useless against Mewtwo. The new pure ghost type that the player subdues might not have had that issue.
I read that Kanto is the most popluar region so far in the entirety of the franchise
I have a theory, which I hope maybe it would be noticed one day.. That Classic Gen 1 only happened. Think about it, if other kids are doing bigger and better things then why do people later on only recognize Red and Blue and never the others? Why is it that there are only 151 pkmn in Gen 1 and Prof. Oak not being aware that there is more despite him being a genius when it comes to Pokemon? Seriously why would he say all the pkmn in the world if there were more? I believe that all the kids in each gen (after Gen 1) imagine them doing their own adventures that were "more awesome" (Which I think is dumb because I really like the gen 1 games and no I am not a veteran I became a fan 4 years ago) That's why there is alternate dimensions and work holes, mega evolution and everything. And also FR & LG are actually a. documentary about Red's adventure. There! Hope you enjoyed! Plz like or reply on this comment!
Team Rocket has the same theory plot as most villains:
Misunderstood heroes.
They try to steal the master ball from Silph Co, but by being nice they just give the master ball to you. Then you go clean up Team Rocket's Mewtwo mess. They are definitely the bad guys.
Maybe the appearance of the ultra wormhole is what caused the crash of the S.S. Anne?
The first theory has a giant hole: Team Rocket created Mewtwo. Stopping Mewtwo would be more covering their screwup rather than saving the day.
Yay more kanto
Yeah...the Team Rocket one falls apart with the killing of Marowak and the illegal Game Corner plot. I don't doubt that they are after Mewtwo, but it definitely isn't a noble cause. We see what happens when Giovanni does win in Ultra S/M.
Also looker is technically in lets go, a mega timeline game if it really is him so in the original timeline where he first appears is likely a timeline where he doesnt wash ashore in hoenn, perhaps the ss anne doesnt crash or what have you in said timeline.
Team Rocket being good has no weight whatsoever. The thing that proves this is that they caused the Mewtwo problem in the first place. They made Mewtwo to control the world, so all efforts to capture Mewtwo makes them still evil, and at best trying to stop him is a neutral action at best that is still invalidated by their evil actions in general.
