During the Pokémon craze of the late 90's, before the internet was as accessible and commonly used as it is today, rumours about hidden Pokemon and items, Pokégods, a secret garden, a Mew under a truck, etc. spread like wildfire across the various playgrounds all around the world, and it largely the reason to why it stayed popular for as long as it did. Started by the pre-internet trolls and people who wanted to appear cool in front of their friends, they traversed from person to person, and it didn't take long before it was hard to distinguish the 1% truth from the 99% lies, and it resulted in a lot of wasted time trying to act out whatever crazy methods these rumours brought along with them.
Which rumours have you heard of during your time in the fandom? Which are your favourite? Where did you hear of them and have you tried out any?
No need to answer the questions, they're just there to give some idea about what to talk about :)
