biologists in the pokemon universe are fuckin idiots. imagine excluding entire countries’ worth of animals and saying “yeah these are all the species in the world”. and these arent even like. undiscovered continents. each of these countries has enough history to show that it’s been populated for countless generations. fuckin professor oak or whatever professor is just straight up neglecting to include entire continents in his research papers
The first 4 Generations aren’t even different countries, just different regions in the SAME country. And according to the remakes have known about each other for ages. Which makes it worse.
professor oak, travelling 10 km west: what the fuck are all those
there’s like three whole different ideas involved here in my head now.
1. Biology is just now something being studied because before then it was all mystical-as-hell, and with only 1 scientist per region work is slow as hell.
2. They specifically only catalogue the pokemon that appear in THEIR region BECAUSE there’s so few scientists, so divvying up the work to locally is going to save a lotta sanity
3. They lower the number of pokemon since they’re enlisting kids, and don’t want to overwhelm them.
But I DO also like the idea that Professor Oak is just an idiot.
My theory is that they have the internet, but they haven’t realized it’s useful for anything other than storing pokemon or scanning pokdexes.
