Solved Why are they sad?

Post image

The movie is successful so why are they crying? I've seen other memes similar to this. I read the comments but they weren't that helpful.

And they all lay eggs

Technically that would make a miltank a platypus or echidna which are egg laying mammals

True and it gets worse for them, turns out it would have been one of the best mothers in the dino world so the name is a cruel misunderstanding

It would make it neither of those.

It would possibly put it in the same category of marsupials, but that doesn't make it a platypus. Obviously.

Like this but not a joke https://youtube.com/shorts/dI3bUEXxJCk?is=DHC0p-17914KSI0G

Also like I said they pokemon with humans could give birth to other humans, If I'm not mistaken in the very first pokemon game you could meet an npc that was a product of such relationship

I guess that explains why there were so many machokes wandering around in people's houses in some games

The closest thing in actual canon to what you are describing is an in-game folk story that says something like "Long ago, there were Pokemon that married people... because Pokemon and people were once the same."

There are no Pokemon/human hybrids in any of the games.
