Some things in the Pokedex simply don't make much sense. Ignoring some things the Pokedex claims doesn't inhibit their enjoyment of the game.

Does each one have the same capability to destroy the universe? Is a newborn Palkia just as powerful as one that's potentially just as old as the universe itself?

I do not have the proper analysis of everything everyone ever says about pokemon and how it relates to gameplay, which you are including if you are JUST excluding the pokedex.

That's not how it works anon.

If you can't prove a contradiction that can't be explained that is.
>>
>>26810580
>Ok, I'll bite. You see parts of them being true, why assume the rest isn't?
Because there's no proof. Game Freak intentionally leaves some things ambiguous. I think it's more interesting that way.
And I'm not assuming they're not true, all I'm doing is saying it's possible they aren't. You're the one assuming here.

>I guess all of Hoenn happened to be on a particularly rainy weather in Sapphire.
Did you miss the part where I said I'm not denying the power of these Pokémon? Kyogre has the power to control the weather, potentially enough to flood the earth. That is a fact.
>>
>>26810605
>That's exactly how it works.
No anon, not at all. A multiverse is not an explanation for contradictions unless stated so(which hasnt), they are two unrelated concepts and in any other fanbase I'd be surprised someone thinks otherwise.

>>26810622
>Because there's no proof. Game Freak intentionally leaves some things ambiguous.
No proof, yeah. Aside from the plot that is.

>I think it's more interesting that way.
What you think does not matter.

>And I'm not assuming they're not true, all I'm doing is saying it's possible they aren't.
With no basis other than "I think it's more interesting".

>Did you miss the part where I said I'm not denying the power of these Pokémon?
And said power is stated on the legends.
>>
>>26810652
>A multiverse is not an explanation for contradictions
Except for, you know, the part where it explains the differences.
That said you can't apply that to the pokedex because those contradictions happened in a single universe.
>>
>>26810652
>and in any other fanbase I'd be surprised someone thinks otherwise.
You'd be surprised how many people aren't as retarded as you are
>>
>>26810652
Just because the legends state the Pokémon's power doesn't mean everything else the legend says is true. It's pretty illogical to assume such a thing.

>The plot proves the Pokémon's power
>The legend also mentions the Pokémon's power
>Therefore the legend must be true!
Are you the type

I don't need a basis to not assume something. Not assuming is the default position.

As for my actual basis though, whenever these legends are mentioned in the game they always use uncertain language. It'd be one thing if the game said "Arceus created the universe!" But instead it never says that, it only speaks of myths and legends. It was clearly Gamefreak's intention to make these Pokémon mysterious, so why do you act like we know everything about them?
>>
>>26810518
What exactly am I not understanding? The story IS different across all sets of main series games. Even a blind person could see that. Well, at least for the villains. As for the rest, it is my understanding that the people in the games actually know doodly squat about pokemon. All is rumors and hearsay. Everything else breaks the fourth wall. The gameplay would contradict it anyway. Without the pokedex, we have unreliable sources and something that has been proven to have no effect on future events. I know what you would say, though, and no, that does not prove the pokedex alone is the most reliable resource, mostly for the reason I include every other official product. The games are not all there is. Pokemon have NEVER exhibited the traits spoken of in the dex. EVER. Even for the games alone, we are speaking of a source that CANNOT BE CONFIRMED. That doesn't make it right, it makes it just as uncertain as everything else the games can say.

>>
>>26810585
Oh, if that's the case, then I'm still right anyway, since if you're going to handwave alternate universes to say anything is possible, then this entire matter is purposeless. There is no definition of pokemon.

Can someone ban this bitch already

>>26810773

Here's the thing, Richard.

Nobody here likes you.

You are no different from Barneyfag, Goodrafag, and the like.

Some people here may stick up for you and even compliment you, but they are not being truthful.

They are making fun of you.

They want to make you feel like you are part of something bigger just to get your reaction.

They are laughing at you.

To them you are nothing more than a joke.

This isn't healthy, Richard.

Just let it go.
>>
>>26810796
If this were a scientific debate I may agree, but it isnt. You see proof the legends are true in the games. Deny them all you want though.

>>26810812
Yes you are.

>>26810810
You're the one arguing that contradictions exist, and the multiverse statements only apply there, nothing is said on FRLG, HGSS or DPPT. What you say is that those games are entirely consistent(aside from the dex), is that true?
>>
>>26810838
No it was just b8 for him
>>
>>26810843
>You're the one arguing that contradictions exist,
Are you even following the conversation here?
>>
>>26810874
Yes, you said that there are contradictions that are explained by the fact a multiverse exists.
There's only 4 possible universes stated to exist, which apply for the differences betwen the blacks and whites and ORAS and RSE.
So, again, are those the only games that contradict each other?
>>
>>26810843
You see proof that what the legends say about the Pokémon's power is true. You don't see truth about anything else.
If a Holy Book says the sky is blue, the earth is round, and space is big, that doesn't mean anything else it says is also true.

>Yes you are.
TIL not assuming things without evidence is an assumption.
Like I said, I'm not saying the legends are false. There's no proof of that, so it'd be illogical to say such a thing. I'm not saying they're true either. That means I'm not assuming anything.
>>
>>26810840

We're talking about Pokémon.
>>
>>26811430

The Pokedex is only important to you.

To everyone else it is just an object in the games that gives a small amount of information for each pokemon.

The Pokedex is hardly even important to this thread's topic.

This thread was made for the purpose of mocking you.

You are a clown, Richard.

People here don't respect you.

The only way people enjoy your presence is to laugh at it.

Please, for your sake, find another website to bring your Pokedex worship.

>>26809940
Hold on, it makes sense that they aren't compatible. Nidorino and Nidorina are both natural evolutions of their Nidoran forms. However, the Moon Stone isn't found in nature at least on Earth, they could be literal moon stones. They aren't able to evolve past their second stage without help from a mysterious catalyst, the Moon Stone. However, since those are so rare, evolution (the darwinian kind) caused the two only be able to breed in their Nidorina/rino stages and not beyond that.
>>
>>26811700

Are You sure about that?
>>
>>26811779
The Moon Stone doesn't work until the final state. It doesn't explain Nidorina.

There are the ones who just enjoy doing battles in game and going on an adventure.
There are the competitive battlers. The shiny hunters. The breeders. The roleplayers. The ones who like the anime, the ones who play the TGC.
We're all pokémon fans here, just not the same kind.

Sure, we'll say in this thread that if it makes you happy. But my point still stands. Not caring as much about the pokédex as you do doesn't make you any less of a pokémon fan.
>>
>>26812245

It does.

A real Pokémon fan would wanna know everything about a Pokémon.

The Pokédex is the greatest source for information on Pokémon species.
>>
>>26812292
A real pokémon fan can also use their imagination to go on the adventure they want to. There are those who like canon, those who like fanon. Those who don't care about either of those and just want to battle with their pokémon and be the very best like no one ever was.
To be a fan, you just need to enjoy the series. That's the ONLY requirement. Liking pokémon.
>>
>>26810165
The pokedex automatically generates the information on the Pokémon after catching it. Nobody "writes" the entries, except for the Pokédex itself. So the only people there are to blame for its stupidity are the professors.
>>
>>26812308
>fanon

How can you like a series for things that are not intrinsic to it?
>>
>>26812350
Nice way disregarding the rest.

Most people don't care either about canon or fanon, we just play the games, we have battles be at the battle spot or with our friends.
The Pokédex is just flavour, the entries are always there, when you catch a Pokémon, the entry is unlocked, Game Freak wrote those to give the world a bit of flavour and background, not to be taken as a Holy Book or the absolute truth.
>>
>>26812350
Because those creations can be interesting in and of themselves, the most fun I've ever had playing pokémon is probably playing Blaze Black 1/2, a fan hack. Artistic creation by fans is a normal thing, and I'm the kind that tends to praise grabbing a pen to start drawing or writing, no matter how shitty it is.

Game Freak never said anything note worthy about the Pokédex.

The Pokédex is just there.
You're going by this train of thought
>They never said anything to deny [thing], so [thing] must be true!

Yet that who both ways.
>The never said anything to confirm [thing], so [thing] must be false.

See your problem? You just make assumptions, and you never defend or show evidence about your train of thought, but you're always demanding proof and back up to everyone that doesn't share your way of thinking.

>>26812557
Again, matter of opinion. The only requirement to be a fan of something is to like said thing.

>>26812556
Just like a mathematical theorem, you can't prove that the pokédex is always right with just examples, because sometimes it can't apply to every single entry. There are entries, like Slugma's, that contradict each other. You'd need a quote from the games or someone from Gamefreak saying "the pokédex is always right about everything" to prove it.

>>
>>26812592
I will take your thanks and lack of protest as an acknowledgement that you accept the Pokedex's imperfections
>>
The pokedex has info that becomes outdated and replaced. Just look at Absol's. At first it was a bringer of doom, and then a warning of it. This is why National dex entries are copied from previous games, because the pokemon aren't canon to the region's story and would never have been caught under normal circumstances.

You guys do realize you're arguing with a mental disorder? You literally can't change his mind.

The correct respose to this type of person us to say "oh that's nice" and then go on believing what you want.

And no, asking me when "they said that the Pokédex is false" is not an answer.

Bring me an interview, a blog post, a mention, whatever that could back up that the Pokédex is completely true.
A screenshot from a game doesn't matter, I want evidence from the people at Game Freak.

>>26812713
The game is set up in a fictional world that doesn't even exist. There's no truth at all because it's fictional, is just fantasy. And the premise of the game is collect, trade and battle with monsters with powers, in a glorified Darwin's Cockfighting. That's the premise, the Pokédex is just flavor.

>>
>>26812765

Pokémon Science.

Not our science.

Pokémon technology is far more Advance.
>>
>>26812742
So, pokemon are just tools for you? I fail to see the importance of flavor, then.
>>
>>26812783

Nothing. I was just telling you that they can.
>>
>>26812776
That doesn't mean they have anuses.
They could poop from their mouths or their eyes or their feet haha poopy feet.
>>
>>26812802

The Pokédex doesn't say that.
You are making stuff up.
>>
>>26812794
They're less than tools.

They are nothing but useless data.
>>
Richard, do you talk to your family about pokémon and the pokédex ? If so, how do they react ?
>>
>>26812787
The fact that their technology is more advanced does not make their science infallible. Science is never completely infallible, it simply becomes less likely to be wrong as technology and research progresses.
The Pokedex (either directly or from researchers like Oak and co) makes observations about Pokemon and draws inferences from them. There is no reason why mistakes could not be made in this process.
>>
>>26812824
They're hardly useless if you use them for battle, and they're hardly worthless if you value them so much.
>>
>>26812794
I like some designs. I even "care" about my party but at the end of the day they're still just data, less than tools. I can't use them to help me in my shores.
And the flavor helps in worldbuilding, any story that only focus on what some character do is boring and doomed from the start. You need a world were things happens, with it owns beliefs and background. You can make a world look alive via flavour and other things. That doesn't mean that the flavour and background is true. Most JRPG said a legend about a great hero and in the end you discover that that hero was the most evil guy to ever exist.


Now answer the question, when did Game Freak said that the Pokédex holds the absolute truth. And this time, avoid asking other thing, answer the goddamn question.
>>
>>26812812
The Pokedex doesn't say they have anuses either.
It doesn't say ANYTHING about where they poop from.
So we don't know. Making ANY claim about where they poop from is making stuff up.
>>
>>26812812
The Pokedex also doesn't say they have anuses either.

We know they poop, or at least Darumaka can, but we don't know that they don't poop from their feet.

Not Everything in the games is canon.
>>
>>26812894

No. unless the Pokédex said it was for research.
>>
>>26812858
If it's all the same to you, I do not believe a thing you say. Worldbuilding is irrelevant to something that you care nothing for.
>>
>>26812870
No, the Pokedex is fallible.
Their technology is very advanced but their data is still based on observations which can be misinterpreted or misstated during the process of getting and interpreting the data.

What reason do you have for believing the Pokedex is perfect? What evidence do you have that the information collection process is completely without error?

Nothing to this effect is ever stated in-game or by Game Freak. There is no reason to believe it to be the case, and it intuitively should not be.

Unless you can prove me wrong by providing direct evidence to the contrary, then your belief is baseless and unreasonable and it is no longer worth arguing with you.

Your belief is not just "The Pokedex is sometimes right"
Your belief is "The Pokedex is always right"

You have still not offered any evidence that the Pokedex is always right.
You have only offered evidence that the Pokedex is sometimes right.


Since I'm worried you won't understand, I'll give you an example to illustrate the difference between showing things that are sometimes true and things that are always true.

For example, I could post a hundred screenshots of a Ninetales that knows the move Flamethrower.
This would be good evidence that Ninetales SOMETIMES knows Flamethrower.

But, if I claimed that "All Ninetales know the move Flamethrower," that would be false. No matter how many screenshots I posted of Ninetales using or knowing Flamethrower, it would not prove that all Ninetales know it.


Hopefully you understand the difference now. So, I'll ask again:

What reason do you have for believing the Pokedex is perfect? What evidence do you have that the information collection process is completely without error?

Nothing to this effect is ever stated in-game or by Game Freak. There is no reason to believe it to be the case, and it intuitively should not be.

Unless you can prove me wrong by providing direct evidence of the Pokedex's infallibility, then your belief is baseless and unreasonable and it is no longer worth arguing with you.

The Pokédex gets updates.
It's information is always right about everything.
>>
>>26813151
Then there is no point to trying to define anything, is there? It's all meaningless.
>>
>>26813215
No, defining things is still meaningful because we define them on a practical level.
There is no practical advantage to assuming the Pokedex is always correct, so a definition of the Pokedex as being infallible does not make sense.

So light doesn't have a constant speed, then?

Why is it this fanbase seems incapable of understanding the concept of gameplay and story segregation? Other video game fanbases understand it fine and don't have moronic arguments like we see happening in this topic, but the Pokemon fanbase is retarded it seems.

>>26813229
Practical? If we alone provide definition to something, then it having value must be true for someone.
>>
>>26813213
Please carefully read what I am asking you.
You are simply restating your point and not answering the question.

I will repeat it once more:

What reason do you have for believing the Pokedex is perfect? What evidence do you have that the information collection process is completely without error?

Nothing to this effect is ever stated in-game or by Game Freak. There is no reason to believe it to be the case, and it intuitively should not be.

Unless you can prove me wrong by providing direct evidence of the Pokedex's infallibility, then your belief is baseless and unreasonable.

Furthermore, I would like to clarify that I want evidence of the Pokedex being PERFECT, not evidence that the Pokedex is SOMETIMES right.

Masuda: We actually don’t think of the world of Pokémon as Earth. If we were to do that, we would kind of be limited by what we could do. By thinking about how physical objects work on Earth and how various elements work on Earth, we would kind of be limited to that if we though of it as Earth. We think of it as a place that is really similar to Earth, but is a different planet of its own with people in it who may be similar to people on Earth, but they have different values so they care about different things.

It’s the type of place, the Pokémon world, where problems we face on Earth just wouldn’t happen. There wouldn’t be global warming, water shortages, or anything like that. It’s a world where the people in it really want to work together with each other. Their value system is such where they would prefer to work together and eliminate these problems rather than feud.
>>
>>26813247
Sorry, I don't quite follow where you're going with this.
>If we alone provide definition to something, then it having value must be true for someone.
I'm not sure what you're getting at with the word "value" but yes, if we have a definition of something it must be because it is useful to the users of the definition to refer to it somehow or other.
But I get the feeling this isn't quite what you mean.

>>26813273

I don't know.

Then the dex is true for someone.

That does not explain why the Pokedex would be infallible. It doesn't even mention the Pokedex.

Yes, I would agree.
But only in the same sense that the sun revolving around the earth was true for some people.
Though perhaps "truth" isn't a word we should use.
The discussion in this thread is essentially about whether accepting the Pokedex as completely true is practical or not.

It does.
Have a thousands arms.

>>
>>26813360
Yes, problems like global warming and water shortages do not exist in the Pokemon world.

However, Masuda himself states the reason why these problems do not exist: "It’s a world where the people in it really want to work together with each other. Their value system is such where they would prefer to work together and eliminate these problems rather than feud."

In other words, it's not that these issues don't exist, it's that the people in the Pokemon world worked together to deal with them so they will never become a problem.

No amount of simply working together can make perfect technology such as a perfect Pokedex, since humans are not perfect.

So, this is NOT evidence that the Pokedex is perfect. There is no reason to infer that the Pokedex is perfect simply because they solved global warming in the Pokemon world.

Then pokemon should not be kept in balls and not given the same rights as any human. If they are our equals, this should be true, and it is not. Instead, pokemon are treated as possessions and has having a subsidiary role in society.

>>26813425
People develop points of view depending on what is practical to them.
If their way of thinking stops being practical, they will change it.
That's why people do things like convert to different religions.
That's what all scientists are in the business of systematically doing.

We are trying to demonstrate to Richard that the point of view that the Pokedex is always true is in fact not a practical way of viewing the world.

Masuda said It'll sure would be interesting if Pokéballs existed in real life, and we haven’t imagined that. But, in terms of what’s inside of the Pokéball, it’s a space that’s incredibly comfortable for Pokémon. So comfortable, that they want to enter the Pokéball without any sort of outside encouragement. What’s actually in there is something we would like for people to sort of imagine on their own. In terms of whether humans can enter the Pokéball or not, it’s called a Pokéball, so probably not. I think it’s just for Pokémon.
>>
>>26813453
Yes, problems such as Global Warming would not happen because the politics of the Pokemon world are different.

The only thing Masuda has done is establish that the political system in the Pokemon world is better equipped to deal with threats facing the planet.

This has nothing to do with the Pokedex.

No.

>You cannot go against a official source.
I agree that I cannot go against an official source.
But, the rules say nothing about the Pokedex.
They say something about how the residents of the Pokemon world deal with global issues. But that has nothing to do with the Pokedex.
So, I am not going against Masuda or Game Freak when I say that the Pokedex is not always right.

If you can provide direct evidence or a clear explanation why something Masuda or someone else at Game Freak said means that the Pokedex is always right, then I will believe you.

Tajiri: Think of it like this. If a horse runs over you and you die, then the horse is bad. But if you're riding the horse, the horse is your ally.

If, according to the dex, Alakazams have an IQ of 5000, amazing psychic powers and can outperform a computer, then:

How come they are not the dominant species of the Pokemon world?
How come they agree to be basically slaves or pets to beings of much lesser mental and physical ability?
How come they don't predict a thousand moves ahead of their opponents and have a better strategy for winning than their trainers themselves?
How come they can only learn 4 moves?
How come computers are not partially replaced by Alakazams?
How come humans keep doing jobs like programming or researching when Alakazams can massively outperform them?

I would like to be able to, but it is unlikely that they would respond. I may still make an attempt.
Without a response from them, however, we can only speculate and theorize. And there is no support for the theory that the Pokedex is always accurate, so we should not assume it is.
