<p>(Alright, from what's been deciphered from the Bad Egg gif code, I think I have a theory developing... Mega Evolution doesn't exist in any of the Johto games. Not in Gold/Silver/Crystal, not in HGSS. So Mega Absol is an illegal Pokémon there, and would turn into a Bad Egg... Unfortunately no Let's Go Johto to save that poor Absol 😔 (yet)</p><p>There's also the whole split timeline with Mega Evolution thing... Hoenn has a Mega Evolution (ORAS) AND a non-Mega Evolution timeline version (RSE), if that makes sense.</p><p>Same with Kanto... Kanto would actually have three versions in this context, I think. The OG Red/Blue/Yellow/Green, Firered/Leafgreen, and Let's Go Pikachu/Eevee. Which the latter actually has different protagonists, and Red is actually a seperate character you can battle in those games iirc, so Fire dodged a bullet there. Not that Arceus would ever let go of its most special, favoritest boy of all time XD</p><p>But there's one way to test that theory, and a few others I have... time to send the professor an ask)</p>
