Speaking of theories, I have one that I don't think has been deliberated upon. I believe what I researched is very interesting, so here's the super-shortened version:



If there was to be a 6th Generation, there would be a small problem (Well, to some people it would be a problem). One of the new Pokemon would have the Pokedex number of 666, and therefore it would never be looked at the same by people who cared. But, see, there's ALREADY more than 666 Pokemon. I mean Formes; Pokemon with different stats, Types, and appearances that aren't counted as a Pokedex number. I won't put the list here for space purposes, but here's the what it adds up to.



There are 70 Pokemon unrepresented with their own Pokedex number. This, with the 649 species, makes 719. The difference of 719 and 666(therefore the number we must subtract from 649) is 53. 649 - 53 = 596. But there is one Pokemon of the 70 uncounted that comes after the Pokedex Number 596(Meloetta). So go back one. 595. The real #666 is the Pokedex number 595. Joltik.



This theory of mine had been flawed previously, as I had forgotten some of the alternate Formes and appearances. But I'm sure sure it's accurate now.



I don't mean this to be a serious condemning of Joltik, as he's one of my very favorite from the 5th Gen, but simply an interesting thought I had that I took the time to factor mathematically. This almost makes me want to write some sort of story about an evil Joltik now, though. *spooky laugh* Additionally, I do not mean to offend anyone who would take offense from the subject.



I apologize for having such a large post. If you want a list of the 70 aforementioned 'uncounted Pokemon', you may e-mail me for it. I wanted to condense my theory as much as possible. I can also include the non-condensed math equation I did, if you think I made a mistake.

If you select the Heavy Ball (or another ball where the form might be relevant) and Calyrex, the calculator should give you a form dropdown to specify which form. (Apologies for the late response; I seem to have missed your comment when you made it.)

Ah, I see. If I enter your parameters, it shows Quick Ball alongside Poké Ball and other balls that don't give a bonus under the circumstances, as it should… but what's really happening is that the "Pokémon's form" box is buggy, so that once you chose Crowned Zacian from the box, everything stopped updating. Will fix that, thanks for reporting!

It really is, isn't it. This wasn't the first incarnation of this page but it's definitely an early one. Probably 2004-2005?

This was very engaging read. It captured the feeling of how the trick's discovering and spreading could have gone. I felt like I was there.

I remember watching all the videos about Pokemon rumors last decade, before Pokemon Sun & Moon etc. finding the stuff about older games more fascinating. This post has a similar vibe, but it's based on real events.

My frustration with fake videogame tricks came from a post about there being a shot gun in Zombies ate my neighbours in Snes. It told, what level it was supposed to be, but I found nothing. I played the game emulated, so atleast I could use save state.
