So, why are there people with blatant magical powers and why

>>33134347
>why are there people with blatant magical powers
Somethingsomething humans are descendants of ancient Pokemon something.

>why does nobody talk about them?
Because it's probably a normal thing there? Like, you won't exactly talk about a mage in a world where magic and dragons exist.

Everything is a descendant of Arceus except Ultra Beasts, but it will be revealed that an Ultra Beast created Arceus's egg so everything in existence is technically a Pokémon.

If I had to guess, it would be that "humans" are a single species. Once you've dissected one, you've dissected them all.
Pokemon though? Different story. Slugma won't have the same biology as Gible, Slaking and Slowpoke are different, etc.

I guess it just ranges from the common to the extraordinary.

Most hex maniacs are /x/philes, but a few of them have actual ghost powers and shit

Most channelers are regular monks, but a few have an affinity for being possessed and most likely show some kind of exorcism power.

Most fairy tale girls are creepy cosplayers, but a few are fairies in disguise.

>>33134516
The pokemon fanbase is less about just speculating a little bit and more about pushing misinformation as fact.

In FF games (VI excluded) people don't freak the fuck out about people who can use magic.

Oh right, the argument where a broken record try to push everything in-game as facts, while denying any room for speculations.

>>33134770
>the argument where a broken record try to push everything in-game as facts
What's said in the game is an actual official source so yeah, its a fact. Now, you could make the point that the game sometimes contradict themselves like the dex does, but you fags didn't do that, you just attacked the fact the actual game source was used which goes against the fundamentals when discussing a work.

> while denying any room for speculations.
There's nothing wrong with speculations. But a)speculations that go against what's established are pointless(unless you're outright writing fanfiction) b) trying to pass them as fact is just wrong and c)attacking a person for proving their points also is and worst of all, you can't delete posts just because they go against the hivemind, that's not good modding.

As much as I agree with you, Dickie doesn't USUALLY get banned. He's been at this for god knows how long now and he's approaching Goodra levels. The sad thing is he probably thinks he's a top-tier shitposter especially now the mods have given him the same treatment as the aforementioned. Alas, he's just making an outdated and as you've said, pretty acceptable (if debatable) point. A lot. To the point it's spam.

>>33134347

Psychic powers are something all humans in the Pokeverse can do if they plan

Aura on the other hand is something you have to be born with, and the only living humans we've seen in the series who can use aura are Riley and Ash due to them being part of the Aura Guardian bloodline

>>33134799
Huh. I take it you don't know Richard then? Or never dealt with him before?

Don't get me wrong, I did read what you posted - and frankly, have nothing to deny. But if you can stay impartial like that you either don't know him or you're the most patient man in /vp/ as a whole - one that I've met, anyway - in which case I'd say we need more people like you.

I agree he doesn't go about it the best way but if we're going to hate on someone for spamming correct sourced info then we should also go against people posting misinformation. Its not fair to only attack one end of the spectrum and not the other.

>>33134890
>Huh. I take it you don't know Richard then? Or never dealt with him before?
I usually participate in lore threads and I've seen him a lot of times. I'm not a fan but its very hypocritical to hate on him when misinformation is a much, much worse issue.

>>33134907
>misinformation is a much, much worse issue
I'm with you on that.

Frankly speaking, I'm just tired with the "who" and not the "what". I'd say I snapped when he claims these:
>Two contradictory dex entry aren't a contradiction because the dex records fact
>The people pointing out the contradiction in the dex are wrong because they were wrong about one thing
Paraphrased, but that's about the gist of it. Kinda stopped caring on anything he has to post after that.

>>33134502
Not him. but RS and ORAS dex entries say it.

>>33134424
Did someone say Hex Maniac?

>>33135049
>You seem to be misunderstanding my point. It's not WHAT he spams, it's how much
This thread proves that its also the what. He wasn't blamed for spamming here, he was blamed for posting actual screencaps and "not giving room for speculation".
And if people really cared about the actual info, misinformation wouldnt be as rampant.
The "how much" shouldn't be an issue as long as its on topic(which it is, he posted caps about people having psychic powers) and, again, we have more people posting misinformation, unless there's one really dedicated guy making multiple posts on multiple threads with multiple IPs.

>We ban anyone who posts misinformation in the same VOLUME as him
No, we don't. Otherwise, lore discussions wouldn't be "correct this idiot" but more about "actual lore discussion". Even months after SM was released we still have megaversefags.

>and he never DOES, all he states is "This is fact" and about 1000x more than is remotely necessary.
I agree its not correct to post it 1000 times, but when misinformation is allowed then its fair to allow information. WHEN we have a non retarded community that can differentiate fact from headcanon THEN we can care about the how.

> I agree with you in everything except that he is literally conducting a bannable offense
Which is?

It's not about what he's posting but how he's posting. The way he's typing is already enough to identify who he is, you don't even need to see his awful Pokedex screenshots. The problem is he's just spamming 50 variations of the same, poor low-quality sentences like "Mew have every move available.", "It is fact.", "The Pokedex is fact.", "You think so. But Pokedex is canon." etc. each time he shows up. And he doesn't shut up, just keeps going, creating endless comment chains with the same shit. I wouldn't be surprised if he isn't even old enough to browse this site since it seems like he can't even properly speak English.

>>33135576
The "what" is more important than the "how", when the "what" in the community is good THEN we can care about the "how". Specially when its just one guy making a mistake against most of the community making a worse mistake.

Richard has been banned and has had his posts wiped several times in the past before for spamming and evading. I've seen this happen many times on the public ban page. Hint: It apparently means he isn't welcome on this site. We shouldn't engage with him and instead report and hide his posts.

So mods should just ignore the likes of Barneyfag too? He's *evading* his bans and that is against the rules.

>>33135713
That would be a fair point, if I'd either said "we, the mods, do ban", "I do/have banned" or if you're stretching, even if I hadn't literally already said "now the mods have given him the same treatment"
So explicitly referring to the mods as other people doesn't cancel out referring to all of /vp/ as "we"
Which again, BTFO's my argument that they are remotely competent.

>>33135764
>What did they do wrong here?
Two things. The first is banning a person solely for posting a point using game evidence as proof. Which is what we're arguing about so I wont count that one(even if we should), the other is deleting a post only for using "we" clearly refering to the community as a whole and not stating he's a mod.

>He's *evading* his bans and that is against the rules.
Way to move the goalposts. That said, we should just accept the biased bans the mods make and leave /vp/ for good solely because the mods say so? That's not good moderation. At all.

>>33135764
>>33135803
Also, to back up his point (As the guy who now agrees with him), they even deleted his post saying "we" which couldn't even IMPLY he has anything to do with mods, even if his argument wasn't AGAINST the mods.
