      Not 100% true. You could also find Ditto east of Fuchsia City. However, in Pokemon Yellow that was changed to be only Pokemon Mansion and Cerulean Cave.
      Looking at some maps, there was a number of locations to find Ditto in non Pokemon Yellow but Route 15 was the place I always remembered searching for it back in Red/Blue.

    The whole "Kanto has 8 gyms yet Gary has 10 badges" theory explained.
    In the anime, one of the first episodes says that in order to gain access to a Pokémon league you must have 8 badges. They never say all 8. That leads you to interpret that there are more gyms in ADDITION, Brock and misty have both suggest on multiple occasions that there are more gyms. Misty is deadset on Ash not going to cerulean asking him if they could go to a different gym. Brock has also pointed ash in the direction of a gym.
    They also go to many town not found in the game.
    Given that so many towns exist it is possible there is a gym for each type in kanto.

    The Ash is 10 forever theory should make sense. The Ho-Oh granted his wish and that Ash died have to work together.
    Here me out. It has been said that Ho-Oh guides people and Pokémon into the afterlife. It has the ability to revive perished parties (see: the Beast Trio).
    Ho-Oh appeared before Ash to not only guide him over the Rainbow Bridge but it also appears because he was willing to risk himself for Pikachu, a Pokémon that essentially wanted nothing to do with him.
    I believe Ash was revived by Ho-Oh after these events instead of being brought over the Rainbow Bridge into the spirit world, thus making him a Rainbow Guardian. It explains why he can die and be rebirthed/revived, it explains his superhuman strength (lifting Pokémon much heavier than he should be able to). It explains why he never ages but his spirit continues to grow. It explains why he is a chosen one and is able to calm/make friends with legendaries/mythicals.
    In essence he did die but was then revived and presented with a blessing to not only discover/meet all Pokémon but to protect them as well.

    In defense of the N is Zoroark theory, Zoroarks don't have to see something to transform into it, because it is creating something from its imagination. Also for the trading theory, the reason that they evolve when traded is the energy they are exposed to. They could get exposed to similar energy in the wild, or maybe know another way to replicate the effect, but the only way Trainers know how to evolve them is to trade them.

    • @samarmstrong3651

      True. Zorua is known to transform into small children and walk around among people all the time.
      Also, some trade evo's just provide ideal situations, like the trade between Karrablast and Shelmet, which is just an opportunity for Karrablast to mug the Shelmet and steal its armor, resulting in the newly souped up Excavalier, and the resentful, but much faster, Accelgor.

    The crossbones thing with Koffing and Weezing could be seen from a different angle: they are the universal symbol for danger BECAUSE they are the markings on a dangerous poisonous Pokémon. In that event, the Pokémon would come first, and then humans would learn to associate the markings on Koffing and Weezing with danger and start using them in their daily lives.

    Sidenote: I think a better "N and Zoroark" theory would be that it's kind of a "changeling tale" sorta thing, based around the Pokedex entries for Zorua.
    1. We know that N was abandoned in the forest as a kid.
    2. We know that Ghetsis isn't N's real dad.
    3. We know from Zorua's Pokedex entries that Zorua often replace human children using their illusions.
    So my theory is that N was a human boy who was lured away into the forest by a Zorua while another Zorua went to N's birth family pretending to be him. While the Zorua lived as N to his oblivious family, Ghetsis found the real N in the forest and took him in and the rest is history.

We know for a fact that Ghetsis is....not really the kindest person on earth, not even to his adopted child. Maybe he killed N in a fit of rage because he didn't listen to him like he would've wanted, took the Zorua, and made him evolve to make him transform into N. We know that some Zoroark can talk and behave exactly like a human would.

    Maybe this is just me being an N stan, but I actually kinda hate the "N is totally just a Zoroark" theory. It just kinda feels like it misses the point of N's character--that he's a human who understands Pokemon, because he was raised among them and he feels kinship with them, and over the course of his journey regains his humanity while still keeping his connection to Pokemon.
    The worst part, imo, is that it kind of...unintentionally vindicates Ghetsis? Remember when Ghetsis called N "a freak without a human heart"? Well, if N is _genuinely not human,_ then it MUST be true! Yeah, I don't like this theory at all.
    On a lighter note, we actually may have some recent vindication for the Cubone being a baby Kangaskhan one, since beta Kangaskhan was revealed and it looks suspiciously similar to Marowak...

      I see your point but I disagree, about N point as a character well English is not my first language and I don't really know/remember the exact words to explain it but more than ruining it the theory give it a turn from a human raised among pokemon regaining his humanity to a pokemon that learning to understand and create bonds with humans
      And about the human heart part it really doesn't vindicate ghetsis it does the opposite even if N is not human he does a lot of things we associate with having a heart like caring about others N heart even if he is a zoroark is far more human that ghetsis will ever be.
      But again it's just the way I see it maybe I right maybe you are right or maybe we are both wrong that's the magic/frustrating part of a theory

    One of my favorite (well least favorite) things about the Pokémon community is how they can't just accept that time doesn't really pass in anime. Ash doesn't age because the writers don't want him to. That's it'. It's the same reason Mickey Mouse isn't dead when we all know mice don't have 80+ year lifespans.
    Also why does everyone focus on Ash... Not a single person in the anime ages.

    My take on the Ditto and Mew theory is that when creating clones you need stem cells. My belief is that when scientists extracted those stem cells from Mew the cells mutated into a blob and became Ditto. The scientists then spent time trying to isolate these stem cells without them mutating and when they were able to do so they created Mew. This theory helps explain why Ditto appear in other wild areas as it is possible other groups have attempted this procedure before.

    • @onijester56

      For trade evolutions, at least Gen 1 there are several aspects that seem to indicate incomplete data transfer. Graveler has 4 arms and Machoke has 2...Machamp has 4 arms and Golem has 2; etc. Even Pokedex entry details swap, with elements from Kadabra's entries in Gengar entries and details from Haunter's entries winding up mentioned in Alakazam's entries.
      We see this with item-mandated trades, where the Pokemon takes on properties of the item they are holding. A la Scyther with a Metal Coat becoming Scizor. This also anticipates the mechanic for specified trades (Shelmet and Karrablast evolve when specifically traded with each other).

    Fun fact! There's a fangame called Pokemon Adventure Red, which allows you to play as the character of Red from the manga. There's a really intense part of the main plot in that story that revolves around Ash and Delia (no spoilers but it is WILD) and it's not dissimilar to the Ash being dead theory.
    Also I'm pretty sure that game also said that Ditto was a failed Mew clone.
    Adding to this, Professor Oak was previously a champion and actually does take part in the League during the events of the manga! He makes it to the semi finals, but the main reason for that is to teach Blue (or Green, for all the fans of the English manga) a lesson because she stole her starter from the lab. He then forfeited, which lead to the battle between Red and Green Oak. However if he hadn't forfeited, the winner of the previous battle would challenge him in the finals.
    Further edits because I just saw the "Arcanine is a legendary" theory and YES, that's my favourite Pokemon right there and my floofy boi deserves all the love
    Okay this is getting long BUT once again, Mr Fuji and Blaine were actually researchers in Kanto together under Team Rocket! Blaine reformed after assisting Red and the others take down Team Rocket at some point and was actually partnered up with Mewtwo.
