For me, it’s about Incineroar. Incineroar was based on a “heel” from fake wrestling. A heel is an antagonistic character that exists to be boo’d by the audience. That’s why he’s part Dark type.

So it’s pretty much intentional that he’s disliked so much.

    Raichu’s Pokédex entries in earlier games mention an Indian elephant. Professor Laventon’s observations instead mention a Pokémon species.

    Who’s that Pokémon? It’s…

    Copperajah!

    Machamp looks like it's wearing briefs, but actually, those black markings are just part of its skin. Pretty convenient that it evolved to look appropriate by human standards! The belt it wears however is an actual belt (according to lore from the official Pokemon website, the 'power belt' is meant to "hold back it's energy").

    Due to quirks in how it's programmed, Wurmple is ¹/¹⁶³⁸⁴ more likely to evolve into Silcoon over Cascoon.

    This is because it takes the upper 16 bits of the encryption constant (personality value prior to x and y) mod 10, and if it's less than or equal to 4 it's a Silcoon, and greater than 4 it's a Cascoon. There are 65536 total values. 32770 values will result in Silcoon. 32766 values that will make Cascoon.

    For me it's the "baby pokemon". Shouldn't they be before their "adult" versions. (like Pichu for example)

    I think the Scarlet/Violet Dex entry for Foongus about how it inspired the design of the Poké Ball is a neat one.

    The fact that 11 Squawkabilly have enough power to lift 2 adults and a huge metal shell is actually insane, seeing as though they are 2 feet tall and weigh 5 pounds.

    I like Iron Juglis’s Scarlet Dex entry.
