Trivia
- The Ruins of Alph in the games is entirely different and focussed on the Unown.
- Archaeology currently dates the first Pokémon at 2 millions years ago, though a Kabutops fossil has been discovered that is 20 to 30 thousand years older than that.
- Like our own life, the emerging theory is that Pokémon life began in the sea.
