lmao, this is like when there's a random cartoon scene with like donald the duck or someone wearing a towel implying the rest of the time, they're pants-less.

...This just made me remember when I was a kid and there was a Donald Duck cartoon I saw where... I think he was joining the Navy or something, and getting his medical exam, and they forcibly pulled his shirt off and he was like "omg" and hurriedly tried to cover himself for modesty. By putting his arms/wings over his groin. And I'm like BUT YOU NEVER COVER THAT AREA ANYWAY.

Or the cartoon characters who wear shirts and no pants but go swimming in trunks and no shirt.

there's no the, it's just Donald Duck.

(Anonymous) 2021-12-08 07:43 am (UTC)(link)
It was probably just a typo.

This secret made me laugh and now I'm wondering the same thing you are, OP XD.

(Anonymous) 2021-12-06 11:17 pm (UTC)(link)
This was actually answered by Nintendo when the folks who made the Detective Pikachu movie asked about it. The clothes are part of the pokemon's body.

...

Hope that helps!

That explains why when they evolve, their "clothes" evolve too. ...I guess.

(Anonymous) 2021-12-06 11:36 pm (UTC)(link)
I feel like that's worse than pokemon in the wild finding clothes...

(Anonymous) 2021-12-06 11:45 pm (UTC)(link)
hmm don't like that

Honestly, I find Throh less creepy that Machamp and its little underpants with that reasoning.

I feel like this meme is relevant to the thread...

(Anonymous) 2021-12-07 06:57 am (UTC)(link)
That's the explanation I came up with when I wondered the same thing as the OP, but I didn't know it was canon. Neat.

I don't know anything about Pokemon but are there other types of non-sentient animals? What is everyone eating? Is it other Pokemon?

(Anonymous) 2021-12-06 11:27 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, Pokemon are eaten in canon.

Glad I asked/sorry I asked.

I am reminded also that in the Animal Crossing games, all the animal villagers wear clothes...

...And once a week K.K. Slider shows up to do his nudist show.

(Anonymous) 2021-12-07 12:43 am (UTC)(link)
it's not as noticable when he's sitting down with his guitar, but yeah he startles me with his nudity whenever he's standing up. like a naked illusion.

Yeah! I didn't think about it until they put a party hat on him for some occasion in the mobile game. And then I went "...waaaaait."


But then again, there is something of a tradition of guitarists performing or taking pictures wearing nothing but their guitars, if I recall...

This secret made me laugh, OP! Thank you!

And now I want fic that explores this lmao

The rationalization behind naming Pokemon seems to be "that's the sound they make so let's call them that", and I think there's a similar train of logic where clothes manufacturers make clothes that look like Pokemon patterns or fur, or skin, or whatever it's supposed to be.

(Anonymous) 2021-12-07 08:48 am (UTC)(link)
The “saying a sound that becomes their name thing” only applies to the anime, not the original games where they have more generally animalistic cries and roars. I know that’s irrelevant and pedantic, and I’m so sorry I can’t resist being That Person!

Also, are you saying people in universe manufacture clothes that look like Pokémon patterns, fur or skin?

(Anonymous) 2021-12-07 03:40 am (UTC)(link)
maybe it's a Goofy vs Pluto type of thing
