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.

The elite 4 one was told around my school, and I had to convince the whole school it's not true. They were told it unlocks Mew. So for about 3 months, everyone was grinding the Elite 4. All the meanwhile I'm sitting with a Mew I got in a trade when I was on holiday. They all believed I actually did it. And even though I kept telling them to not waste their time. They still blame me when they got to the 100th run and nothing happened. That was the day I invented the facepalm

When I was younger, my older sister’s friend told me that in pokemon diamond and pearl, you could catch Turtwig in Sunnyshore city, but only if your save file was 1 in 100 or something (which I thought were impossible odds back then). As a result, despite playing through those games what must’ve been 20 times, I NEVER Chose Turtwig, always holding on to the hope that I would get the lucky save file and get 2 out of the 3 starters in one playthrough (nevermind that I could, y’know, just trade with people to get more than one starter oer game). Last month I picked up Diamond again and chose Turtwig for the first time and wanted to soft reset for a decent nature. In just three SRs, I had a shiny. I’d like to think in some odd way, I did end up beating the odds, even if they weren’t the odds I initially was fighting for. Her name is Shelby and I don’t regret that playthrough one bit
