The Masterdex

by webhead112233

Hi, Bill here. Its occurred to me that the standard pokedex doesn't quite go into enough detail about certain pokemon. I'm here to fix this. I'll be working with scientific terms, so the word evolution will refer to actual evolution, whereas evolution from one pokemon to the next is metamorphosis.

And we return once again to Material Pokemon to finish discussing what I believe is being referred to as 'the pollution trio'. Trubbish, or Yabakuron, started, like all Material Pokemon, as a normal type Protomon with more or less no form.

These Protomon migrated to the Univa region, which at the time was producing as much garbage as most towns are now a days, and had no way of disposing of the waste other than just piling it all up. Finding that the garbage piles were the safest place to stay, as nothing but a few Pokemon occasionally went there, the Protomon made their home in these dumps.

Over time, their bodies became reshaped in order to camouflage themselves against the garbage for the few things that did enter their territory, and as there wasn't much clean food or environment, they developed the ability to feed on rotted food as well, then to feed mostly on garbage, and finally to be able to feed on anything.

The exposure to the toxins and chemicals in the garbage gradually shifted their genetic make up to actually produce it, making them into poison types. Their lungs became equipped to breathing and expelling poisonous air, as that was all there really was in the areas they lived.

This made them into what we now call Trubbish. Next time, we'll discuss what led them to their ability to metamorphasize.
