>>
They get bigger and heavier as they evolve
>>
The Pokédex generates data on every single pokemon you catch by simply looking at it.

Clearly this is not possible, so it just makes up random facts and numbers. That is why the descriptions barely ever makes sense.
>>
>>25075613
And since sizes of animal species irl can differ, perhaps so can the sizes of pokemon? So that could've been a really small magnemite and a rather large magneton.
>>
>>25075551
Magneton has more photons
>>
>>25075613
Nice headcanon

Density, my good man.
Magnemite is hollow, Magneton is solid.
Also, its component Magnemites are a little larger. Look at the heights.
>>
>>25075613
the idea of a smartass AI making up bullshit for laughs in the pokedex voice from the anime makes me want to believe that
>>
The power of friendship in an individual Pokemon weighs 14kg.
>>
>>25075551
magneton's dex entries state multiple times that its presence messes with electronic devices, that's why the pokedex couldn't correctly calibrate its weighing feature and was off.

I love it.

I thought it was because it was a bunch of 10 year olds cataloging these things.

Magnemite itself is very light but it's screws make up most of its mass.
There is additional retractable screws in magnezone holding them together that add the extra mass.
>>
>>25076968
Not magnezone I meant magneton
>>
>>25075551
clearly they get bigger and most likely more denser. I mean Magnemite is .3 meter in height and if magneton height is only 2 magnemite high it should be around .6 meter. But magneton is listed as being 1 meter
>>
Fuckin' magnets, how do they work?
>>
Better question: what the fuck even is a magnemite/ton/zone?

What?

Best question: why the fuck don't they get Levitate? Or at least have Magnet Pull give priority to Magnet Rise as well because they're NOT TOUCHING THE GROUND WHY'S IT STILL 4X WEAK TO GROUND MOVES AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

I'd like to think the pokedex entries are roughly as real as the Illiad and other ancient texts
There's some truth to it (Charizard can melt nearly anything), there are things that are obviously exaggeration (it can melt 10,000 tons of glazier), and then there are things that might be true, but we can't say for sure (It can melt boulders)

Although a lot of people are too harsh on the dex, you can't deny that a lot of the content is doubt-able, and sounds like myth (kid turned into a Kadabra, Dusclops is like a black hole, the temperature of several fire-pokemon etc etc etc

i can't come up with an example now, but i'm pretty sure some dex entries even contradict things possible in the games themselves
>>

It happened one morning - a boy with extrasensory powers awoke in bed transformed into Kadabra.

>>25082644
Besides, why the fuck else would Oak need you to fill in already written down information? I doubt there were any facts for Mewtwo prior anyway
>>
>>25082644
I always found it strange how critical people are of an encyclopedia for super powered monsters.

I mean a lot of it is bullshit on purpose but c'mon i had a rattata chew through an onix.
>>
>>25085680
>i had a rattata chew through an onix
Could be explained as the game being based on very unrealistic mathematical equations
Even a human will have problem breaking a tiny pebble between their teeth, so that is a great example of how the games don't make sense, but you just have to roll with it, cause if it was more realistic, it would just be shitty
>>
>>25076099
...Are there people who seriously sexualize magnets?
>>
>>25080992
Probably because the Magnemite line has the most resistances of any pokemon. Natural immunity to ground would absolutely make sense, but it would also be pretty OP in a way.

With dark and ghost getting removed from steel resist, they should just replace sturdy with levitate at this point. Or at the very least get rid of Analytic.
>>
>>25085740
They're really attractive
>>
>>25086702
Are you sure?
>>
>>25087353
I dunno. Sometimes they're really attractive, but sometimes I'm repelled.
>>
Electric energy is stored in their magnets, right? And the magnets have the north/south poles on them. Then why do the magnets not meet and they are attracted at the body, places where the body looks like wouldn't be emitting charge or magnetic force?
>>
