There's this trend of works that start off by establishing that they're set in 2019 so they don't have to figure out how COVID would impact the plot, and movies set in the recent past so they can write around including cell phones, and that seems uniquely modern, but then you watch a silent movie from the 1920s where a soldier character very pointedly notes that the story takes place in 1911 so you don't have to think about WWI and you realize writers wanting to avoid recent events is eternal
Listen, I know I said last time I wouldn't take long for my next post and I didn't deliver, so this time I'm posting 2 paradoxes in the same post to make it up to you, and hopefully I won't forget to post for another month next time
Anyways, I present to you Primordial Gene and Iron Idol, both paradoxes for some mythical pokemon because that's what I wanted the last 2 of the first batch to be.
First of them is Primordial Gene, a true paradox since Deoxys isn't supposed to be a thing until more recent times.
Primordial Gene is inspired by various things, the main being the RNA World hypothesis, which states that RNA came before DNA and that was one of the things that eventually led up to the origin of life.
Another inspiration for it is the Xenomorph, yall already probably know what a Xenomorph is so I'm not gonna go into detail, but also it's based on the Ancient Astronaut conspiracy theories, saying that aliens came to Earth in ye good ol' times when humanity was young or something.
Anyways, moving on with Iron Idol, the Future Paradox of Meloetta
As you can probably tell, Iron Idol is pretty much based on our queen and savior Hatsune Miku, but it's also based on other concepts such as VTubers, modern idols and electronic stuff that aid them, like microphones and speakers.
Iron Idol is also kinda based on rythm games, as the dots on its "hair" move in a similar way to games like Guitar Hero or the one with the piano tiles on mobile.
And as always, here are the cries for both of them
Anyways, that's it from me for now, hopefully I don't take like an entire month to post again, stay safe everyone ✌
Finding out that World Athletics pays $100k every time a new world record is set so so Mondo Duplantis has just been setting it 1cm at a time from 6.17m to 6.25m in the past 4 years is so funny??? Finessing 1 million dollars 1 cm at a time even though he can clearly go higher at one shot???? #respect
