GAMEFREAK Designers Flunked High School Science

Because JAPAN!

Lol anyway that cubone thing was a rant Ben and I were going on about last year while we were driving somewhere this topic gave me a laugh.

I love you Gabi! Hive mind LOL

In Pigeot's defense, I remember watching a show on the Peregrine Falcon and how it could reach ridiculous speeds (looking it up on the net reveals 200 mph or 322 kph). It did a corkscrew motion as it dived, but this didn't hinder it's ability to reach the ridiculous rate. Scientists were trying to mimic it so that our jets could go even faster. So I think Pigeot could maybe reach that speed if it was diving, much like how the Peregrine does (this is still keeping the fantasy evolution of Pokemon in mind - Pidgey's line evolves specifically with a biology to withstand travelling at mach 2).

There was a thing on deviantART where the artist portrayed Cubone's mother as a Charizard that was slain. But I think Cubone could be a product of various sort of similar pokemon babies (similar in the sense of rough body shape) who mothers were slain and they took a token to remember them by. Rapid evolution happened for the youngster and they became Cubone as a sort of defense to the wilderness of the Pokemon World. Marowak is the culmination of that genetic mutation.

Lol, rough ideas of science. XD Probably butchered everything, but I don't care~

Good point... This is the country that thought up Godzilla and Rodan, after all.
