Regarding the origin of the world, this issue is like the emotional topic between men and women. No one can really understand it, but anyone can make a few remarks.
Although this is a problem that is quite far away from the real world compared to the shortcomings of parents, generations of scholars have never stopped exploring its roots.
Historically, various conjectures and theories have emerged in endlessly, but just like the list of champions in various leagues, they will completely change their appearance almost every few years.
Needless to say, there was no need to mention the period of human ignorance. Each region has its own totem Pokémon and origin myths. From Ho-oh to Lugia, from Dialga to Palkia, from Xerneas to Yveltal, almost every powerful legendary Pokémon has been used by people in nearby areas. Worshiped as the god who created the world.
In the modern era after the establishment of the Alliance, science and rationality finally ushered in the dawn of enlightenment.
While the clergy and religionists were still arguing over their respective beliefs, the scientists took the lead and scored a point——
Based on the DNA data measured through experiments and ancient fossil remains found in various places, they believe that there is no god who controls all things in the world. The elf "Mew" they called the fantasy Pokémon was the earliest born in the world. of Pokémon.
They further hypothesized that, except for those modern Pokémon created by humans, all Pokémon in the illustrated book are the descendants of this dream elf.
The reason why there are so many strange Pokémon in the illustrated books today is because in addition to the Pokémon's own evolutionary chain, there is also some kind of slow biological evolution between each generation of relatives.
When this "chronic evolution" is placed on a time scale of tens of millions of years, those dreams that originally had the same appearance, abilities, and attributes began to branch out and embark on different paths in order to adapt to the environment around the world. .
Dreams that are close to rivers and oceans become water elves, growing gills and fins; dreams that are close to mountain mines gradually harden their skin and become rock-type; dreams that need to travel through forest leaves eventually grow wings and learn to fly...Similarly The research theory was eventually incorporated into the ovomics of Pokémon research.
And just when the white coats in the institute were cheering and celebrating the victory of science, the study of elf science, which had just become independent and was still just an emerging discipline, stabbed these brother disciplines in the back.
In the era when Dr. Oak began to rise to prominence, people's research on Pokémon became more systematic and rigorous.
The original "dream origin theory" based on human biology suddenly became full of flaws under this new generation of academic perspective.
A fact was quickly put on the table: Mew was not the first Pokémon to appear in the world.
Whether it is the ultra-ancient elves sleeping under the deep sea crust in the Hoenn region, or the Regichicas sleeping in the Snow Peak Temple in the Sinnoh region. These Pokémon that are now proven to be real existed in an era when they were active far earlier than the fantasy fossils discovered in the past.
Similarly, the "chronic evolution" theory proposed by early scientists has also been fiercely questioned by a new generation of researchers.
From a macro species perspective, the genes of most elves are actually much more stable and tough than biologists expected.
The subspecies phenomenon observed in many areas also proves that the evolution of Pokémon subspecies is closer to a "collective mutation" of use and disuse. As long as the Pokémon of those regional subspecies are brought back to their original environment, they will not be able to survive. After a few generations, it will completely return to its original population posture. This mode of evolution is very different from the natural selection elimination conceived by scholars in the past, and has almost completely shaken the foundation of the "dream origin theory."
Moreover, the most critical and fatal point is that in the logical framework of the "dream origin theory", there is still a huge theoretical hole, that is, the position of human beings in the entire nature.
Even though this theory can explain some of the reasons for the existence of the Pokémon phenomenon, it completely avoids or even ignores the issue of the origin of the human race. The exploration of the origins of the world is better than nothing.
In the end, amidst the overwhelming controversy, those scientists who were obsessed with dreams finally lost, and the fog of agnosticism once again enveloped the academic world. Various modern disciplines are arguing about it, but so far they have not been able to provide even a unified and credible answer to this question about the origin of the world.
Thus, the baton of history passed in circles to the hands of mythology scholars like Zhulan.
Those myths and legends that were originally scattered around the world have been reintegrated in this era of interconnected everything.
Individual legends may only be used as bedtime entertainment to coax children, but when countless myths are brought together and subjected to rigorous and scientific research, the truth buried under the fog may be about to be revealed.
What's more fortunate or unfortunate is——
With traces of legendary Pokémon activities appearing one after another in Kanto, Sinnoh and other regions, the world today seems to have entered an era where the gods are walking with their heads high and their heads high.
.
"Although I no longer pay attention to the messy things in the academic circle. But I have to say that those of you who are engaged in mythology research have indeed produced some real research results."
The owner of the mansion named Mei Dan sat on the sofa in the reception room, took a sip of the black tea brewed by the maid, and said to Zhu Lan on the other side of the seat——
"More than fifty years ago, those who tried to prove that dreams were the origin of the world spent all the money allocated by the alliance and were busy creating chaos in the world.
He ran, studied the eyelash fossils in the stone, and used more than 2,000 classification methods to summarize the 150 discovered elves - but the result only proved a wrong research conclusion, except for the scrap manuscript papers that needed to be transported by trucks. Except, nothing was achieved. In comparison, the achievements of you mythologists are much more remarkable. "
Meidan said with a smile that was either complimentary or sarcastic, shaking the tea cup.
"Just walking around the museum a few times, looking at the inscriptions on the stone tablets, and moving the cultural relics dug out of the dust to the altar on the top of the mountain can create such a big movement. It is really amazing."
Come on, that's sarcasm.
The malicious content is at least 90% higher.
Junsha on the side rolled her eyes, drinking tea and observing how the Zhulan Champion planned to deal with the offensive of this mean old thing.
"I think you may be referring to the 'Pillar of Guns' incident caused by the Red Sun of the Milky Way Group."
Zhulan was expressionless, neither agreeing nor refuting. Looking across the street from Meidan, he seemed to be still observing the interior layout of the Forest Mansion.
Mei Dan nodded and continued to follow the topic in a weird way——
"The God of Time, the God of Space... Hey, the name is really nice, but it's a pity that on TV it looks like two snarling monsters. Oh my, will I be punished by God for talking nonsense like this? Bar."
"There are no records in the ancient books that I know of that humans encountered mishaps because of criticism of Legendary Pokémon. In fact, in the Sinnoh region in the past, people had misunderstood Dialga and Pallu for a long time. The identities of the two elves in Chia, but even so, during that period of time, there were still stories of "gods giving power to help the world." It can be seen that compared to some humans, these elves who are known as gods are still relatively broad-minded. "
The mythology scholar said softly: "Or perhaps, these existences actually don't care what people say about them."
