You’d think so but if thats the case giant ponyta must just be very common :U
Charizard also was like, 10 feet tall in the anime, but can’t really usually get over 4 or 5 feet tall in reality.
My theory is that pokemon grow to different sizes depending on where they lived, just like real animals. And that you can breed them for certain sizes or whatnot.
Generally I agree with the sentiment that we’re living in the worst possible iteration of a cyberpunk dystopia but honestly, pokemon fans using augmented reality to AR-tag a notoriously homophobic hate group’s building by having it controlled by a pink fairy videogame monster called “loveislove” that’s only visible to other people playing the same AR game is some Shadowrun shit and I love it. I hope loveislove makes their jigglypuff eat shit
