Pokémon Special/Fridge: Difference between revisions

== [[Fridge Brilliance]] ==

* Early on in the ''[[Pokémon Special]]'' manga, I wondered why there were Kangaskhan and Venomoth in the Viridian Forest. I settled with artistic license at first. Later on, it's revealed that Team Rocket was using the Forest as breeding grounds, so those out of place Pokémon make sense as they ''are'' out of place. Also makes sense on how a Kangaskhan got injured too despite being a strong Pokémon; a lot of different Pokémon were probably duking it out between themselves to make use of their new surroundings. I bet those rampaging Magmar (which initially came off as bit of a BLAM) that attacked Pewter City were also the effects of the Rocket experiments. Even Pika's appearance in Pewter makes sense; it was stealing food in the markets because it could no longer forage for itself in the forest, not to mention it shows how pissed it is later when it runs into Giovanni.-[[Tropers/The Violent Tomboy|The Violent Tomboy]]

* In the RS arc bio pages, the levels of Sapphire's Pokemon are shown while Ruby's show their conditions. This isn't only to show their respective goals; this also cleverly hides Ruby's true strength, as his Pokemon (particularly Nana and Coco) would logically have phenomenally higher levels than hers given their pasts.

* Darach and Caitlin's talk about tea time suggests that she has a preference for dry flavors, which is associated with the special attack stat. Perfect for someone who has actual psychic powers.

* {{spoiler|After the events at the Nimbasa Ferris Wheel, }}White knew that there was something bigger than just her going on and that she would have to learn how to battle in order to face it. This, however, entailed that she sacrifice her ''reputation and career''. Think about it; who in their right minds would want to work for/with someone who would apparently just suspend her business out of the blue, especially if said person did so right after successfully organizing an event like the Musical? On the other hand, Black declaring that he would still wear the BW Agency logo at the Pokemon League is Fridge Heartwarming in that he's basically carrying on her dream for her while she can't. Winning the League would be huge media exposure and give her a much needed leg-up after everything is done with.

* Ruby sometimes wears glasses. People with red eyes in real life are likely to have poor eyesight.

* Yellow was asleep when {{spoiler|Sird called out her Darkrai, meaning that, even if it was for a few seconds, Yellow must have been under the effect of Darkrai's Bad Dreams ability.}}
