Trade-Evolutions occur due to a corruption in their DNA.
Pokemon was way darker in Gen 1.
Do you guys remember how Bill became a Pokemon by accident while using the PC to transfer Pokemon because the transfer technology was unstable?
Similar thing could happen with some Pokemon while traded, every Pokemon that evolves by Trading in Gen 1 was suppose to ONLY evolve when Traded to their counter-part >Machoke to Graveller >Haunter to Kadabra Of course it never worked exactly like that because of engine limitations at the time, but the lore is there.
As you can see in pic-related, when you traded them, they would be fused by accident, same with Kadabra and Haunter.
The Ghost made of smoke gains a more material body, gains actual mass becoming Gengar, while Kadabra looks way more fragile and senile but in exchange his psychic powers increase after the ghost saps the life outta him, turning into Alakazam.
It also explains why you can never catch them in the wild. They aren't natural Pokemon but instead a human accident.
Obviously this concept was not only hard to code back then, but as we know after the success of Gen 1 how GF focused their games to be more family-friendly, this concept also got dropped for being too dark.
Wait, this theory also works with items. >Steelix/Scizor evolve when their previous evo are trading hold Metal Coat >The Metal fuses into their DNA and they evolve into a Steel mon

This is retarded as fuck. gravler doesn't need to be traded with machoke. same with haunter and kadaba. kill yourself.

Its literally explained in the post that due to obvious coding and engine limitations at the time they couldn't lock it. Karrablast and Shelmet are Pokemon that use this concept of locked-trade, and they only came out in Gen 5.
pokemon isnt real. thats what im trying to say. its not real.
Parker Fisher

Samuel Sanchez
what i mean is that it isnt real. pokemon, that is. which is to say that pokemon isnt real. maybe im not doing a very good job of getting my point across but thats really what im trying to say here.

So you're saying that pokemon are outside right now waiting to be captured?
As confusing as it may be, the Donkey Kong we know from the Super Nintendo on is not the original Donkey Kong. In fact, the original character is long gone by the events of Donkey Kong Country. However, the elderly Cranky Kong has been confirmed to be the hero of Donkey Kong Jr. This means that he's the one who "killed" Jumpman at the end of the game.
This theory claims that Jumpman is not Mario, but rather his and Luigi's father. This would explain why he has a different girlfriend and name than our favorite plumber; Pauline is Mario's mother, not his ex-girlfriend. This would also give Mario a good reason to be the current Donkey Kong's rival. Wouldn't you hate the grandson of the man who killed your father?
Fuck off MatPat. You've gone beyond scraping the bottom of the barrel, now you're hitting bedrock.

>Jumpman is Mario and Luigi's father Thats the only thing I'm skeptical about Everything else checks out

the op mentions something about pokemon. i dont really know what hes talking about, but the bottom line here is that its about pokemon. seeing this, i bring up the point that pokemon isnt real. there might have been a bit of a miscommunication here, though, which brings us here. in the end, what i really mean to say is that "pokemon" isnt real. in other words, "pokemon" is a fiction of sorts. not quite a lie, since there is no deceptive intent, but not quite a truth, either.
