The only real problem I have with saying zero plate shifting is that there are slight differences between Pokémon geography and ours: Sakhalin Island for example appears to have drifted southeast. Also coastlines appear slightly different: makes sense after a considerable length of time, whether...

I've considered tens of millions of years also; I think differing sea levels are important too. Which is part of why I can allow for perhaps tens of thousands of years, especially accounting for all the comets and meteoroids and wars that have struck the Pokémon world in its past. I suppose...

Pokémon Timeline When exactly are the Pokémon games set in relation to our modern day? My current estimate presumes around 20000 years between our time and the beginning of events known in the Pokémon era. But it could be more reent or far more distant. The most important factor is time needed...

Hey, how have you been? It's been so long since we've talked!

I've thought of it in those terms for a long time now :pink_smile: Although I have my own theory on Mew (see the Mew thread in my signature), I've been convinced that the myth of Arceus is mere myth for quite some time. Nobody created the Pokémon universe but Satoshi Tajiri, haha :pink_giggle:

While I don't think that the Lapidarian Highlands would be the setting of a new Pokémon game, I do feel the need to point out the Lapidarian Highlands are a real world location: their Japanese name is Guipna Highlands, which refers to the upper part of the real world Guiana Shield, in...

Sorry for taking so long to reply hon :pink_frown: And aww, that's awesome; I have a bunch of plushies, but all pre-Generation IV, haha :pink_giggle: No particular reason for that I guess. A 1996 Pikachu doll was my first toy as a baby; I never had a teddy bear, I had a Pikachu, haha...

I'm a rare Poké-atheist: I don't believe that the myths and legends about Arceus, etc., are true. There may be kernels of truth there, but for the most part they are very much mythological. There are clearly ancient Pokémon religions (particularly in Hoenn and Sinnoh), however, I believe that...

Yuuuuusssss, absolutely :pink_smile: Ooooo, and nice! A Sylveon plushie would be so cute! And I'm not totally sure yet: maybe straight-across bangs? Haven't totally decided, haha. And sure! I don't have my 3DS with me at this exact moment, but whenever we're able to make that happen, for sure!

No prob, I've been super busy lately anyway, haha And yes, absolutely. European and Asian fashions and architectures are beautiful :pink_smile: France and Japan are probably my two favorite countries. Ooo, and nice! Yuussss, I love bangs, I definitely think I'll be getting them soon. Ooo, and cute!

Hi :pink_smile: How are you?

Oh, no problem :pink_smile: Yeah, I'm quite enamored with old European fashion, 18th and 19th centuries; especially France. I'm like the biggest Francophile ever, haha :pink_tongue: And right?!? There's definitely a lot of money to be made with that place, haha. Ooo, very nice; my character's...

Did I forget to reply? Sorry, I've been busy the past several days, so my bad if I accidentally didn't respond to our last conversation :pink_eek:

Colonial does kinda make sense, but then it also kind of insinuates USA 1780's, rather than Amadeus' Viennese 1780's (I prefer European fashion in those days, the American stuff seems like sort of more rustic, downgraded version). Haha, and yes, of course you may borrow my money-making strategy...

Yes, I highly recommend them :pink_smile: And I suppose the 1780's could be termed the late baroque, colonial, or early romantic era, I guess? And yuuuuusssss, so much yuuuusssss. I've ended up going to the Battle Chateau with the Amulet Coin and repeated stacked money-increasing O-Powers to...
