* [[Alternative Character Interpretation]]: Are Reshiram and Zekrom [[Yin-Yang Clash|two separate entities that have come to despise each other]] [[This Is My Side|because they are polar opposites never to meet]], or do they [[Putting the Band Back Together|long to turn back into the original dragon they were before]] [[Ship Tease|and be together]]? The latter seems a fairly popular interpretation on Pixiv.
** {{spoiler|Was the entirety of Team Plasma sans Ghetsis truly [[Stupid Good]] [[Well-Intentioned Extremist|Well Intentioned Extremists]] who thought they were doing the right thing à la N, or were some in on Ghetsis's true intentions and merely playing up the facade in order to gain brownie points from the guy when he finished his conquering? The Sages at the very least seem aware, since they slip up occasionally and refer to Ghetsis as their leader (followed by him correcting them that he's one of the Sages and supposedly no more powerful than the rest of them). Similarly, they hint that N's desire to fight the player is interfering with Ghetsis's plans. Then there's the fact that the Shadow Triad is loyal to Ghetsis even after he reveals the truth... Heck, the two grunts who [[Kick the Dog|kick the Munna]] early on hint that they were aware that Ghetsis was lying
** N is often subject to this, especially considering the fact that every time you fight him he has a new party of Pokémon, as well as the more vague aspects of his backstory.
*** Not to mention interpreting him as a tragic, sympathetic [[The Woobie|Woobie]] who's shipped with the player characters or a mouth-breathing [[Stalker with a Crush]]...who is shipped with the [[Memetic Molester|player characters]].
Line 266:
** N introduces the Shadow Triad as men, but that hasn't stopped the fans from questioning their gender, especially since it is only addressed once. In ''[[Pokémon Special]]'', they look like masked versions of [[Death Note|Mello]]. Not helping. At all.
*** Also does not help at all that we only ever see their overworld sprites in-game. Because [[The Unfought|they never fight you]], they don't have portrait sprites that would help clear things up.
* [[Viewer Species Confusion]]: Zorua and Zoroark are often mistaken for being wolves or [[Our Werewolves Are Different|werewolves]], when they're actually
* [[The Woobie]]: According to its Pokédex entries, Yamask's gold mask is its face from its time as a human thousands of years ago before turning into a mummy, and it still has memories from those times. [[Tear Jerker|It occasionally stares at the mask, sobbing.]]
** [[Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds]]: Then it evolves into Cofagrigus, which eats humans and turns them into mummies.
*** [[Fridge Horror|So that's how these guys reproduce! Cofagrigus turn people into Yamask, which then evolve into Cofagrigus]]...
** Believe it or not, Kyurem. Since it's frozen, everyone is afraid of it, and it can't even use its powers to their full potential, Kyurem fans decide that [[I Just Want to Have Friends|it needs a hug]]. (No one can ''prove'' that it really ate people...)
** Bianca. As if having self-esteem issues, an [[Overprotective Dad]] (at first), and getting the short end of the stick starter-wise wasn't bad enough, she enters her third battle with you feeling confident and sure that she'll do well, only to [[Heroic BSOD|lose all heart]] (she even says she won't ever be as good as you or Cheren) when you end up defeating her. Yeah, that's right - the game [[Cruelty Is the Only Option|makes you]] [[Break the Cutie]] in order to continue. I'd say that's worth a cuddle. And if it's still not enough, she got her Munna stolen. She got it back, but still...
** {{spoiler|N - his father could give [[Pokémon Colosseum|Cipher]] a run for its money in [[Complete Monster|sheer callousness]]. That's grounds for a hug right there. And Concordia's words just make it even sadder: "N's heart is pure and innocent. But there is nothing more beautiful and terrifying than innocence
