I love how it's progressed from "the internet wasn't around so misinformation spread without anyone being able to check" to "the internet is widespread so people made a bunch of fake leaks". Never change, pokemon rumor-mill.

@SandwitchZebra 4 года назад

I mean, look at Smash Bros. It's basically the same, but even more prevalent. Look at most fighting games. It's basically the same. Look at pretty much any other game. It went from playground rumors to leaks for all of them.

@insaincaldo 4 года назад

The internet was around! It's just, most of the gaming sites were amateur fansites run by kids who would parrot any information people sent them. Thus the circulation of rumors about Mewthree, Luigi being unlockable in Mario 64, etc.

Yeah these rumor videos they have been doing are the absolute laziest, worst and most low effort videos they’ve done thus far lol they don’t have to make sure that every fact they list is actually legit, and have to fact check it by looking up the facts to look at their accuracy, INSTEAD, they can just make up every single “rumor” they talk about, since they’re not true lol, and then every other “fact” they list (that they probably got from websites that list these types of things) don’t need any other explaining, nothing in these rumor videos are actually true so the rumor vids are literally all just blank bs vids that don’t contribute to anything aside from racking up views and ads lol ugh

Lavender town tune? In fact there is a note in change log, that it was altered due to "psychological issues". But it was due to high pith sound in Green version, what cause headaches. Despite whole "it being creepy", this story strain also from confusion with real event. Over hundred kids were hospitalized due to one of anime episodes causing epilepsy. It was "Virtual Soldier Porygon" incident. Also it was episode, what in fact contain explanation of PokeSystem work. What due to lack of proper explanation in the show, is still source of misconceptions regard subject (it is teleportation by the way).

These days I think these rumours have been replaced with “game theories”. And before that they were replaced with creepypastas back when people thought creepypastas were real. Even after the internet, people will find ways to expand upon games with “what if” ideas and rumors. It’s almost comforting to know it never really dies.

There was a very commonly believed rumour amongst my friends growing up that all legendary Pokemon had a move called "Legendary Blast", I don't know who started it or where it came from, but everyone just went with it and didn't question it or try to debunk it. I was disappointed when I started playing the games a few years after my friends (funnily, I beat the games before they did as I figured out how to get the strength HM, haha) and none of the legendary Pokemon that I caught could learn the move "Legendary Blast". There was also another similar rumour that Goldeen had a move called "Chromium Energy", again, no clue where it came from, and it wasn't as common as legendary blast, but people still used it. It's funny how these rumours come about.

@eddygoro1046 2 года назад

Oh, another rumour was that if you used a sun stone on Steelix, it'd evolve into Techtonix (which I think is the name of an Onix in the anime, don't remember), and some of my friends and I tried it, and then there were more methods suggested, like levelling up the Steelix to level 100, keeping it an Onix till level 75 and then using a sun stone, that there was a secret item called a "Solar Stone" that needed to be used, etc. Of course, none of these worked as "Techtonix" wasn't real, lol.
