Ever have a misassumption?(In pokemon,)

For example: My brother got some R/S cards in a tin.A list of R/S pokemon was included, and we made misassumptions.One was we thought pokemon didnt evolve, that they were realated.And that Feebas evolved into relicanth.

Point is, have you made any misassumptions in pokemon?

For a while, I thought Dragonite's evolved form was Yoshi (blames some liar)

XD.I thought Plusle/minun were realated to Pikachu.Then that they evolved into each other.

 

[Valkyrie X]

Oh dear...I've had many misassumptions. o.o;; For a long time I used to not think that Dragonair evolved into Dragonite. I also didn't think Magikarp evolved into Gyarados, and I thought Yoshi was a Pokémon. D:

There are more, but that's all I'm listing for now.

[RushingTwilight]

Same here, I thought Plusle and Minun were related to Pikachu.

 

[Wig]

I thought Latios and Latias were able to breed and I also thought that Unown evolved to into the 3 legendry dogs.

 

[Mikau]

When I first got Blue version,I thought that all of the Pokemon could evolve from their elemental stones. But I was wrong. I also used to think Dragonair evolved into Gyrados,and there was this one time when I thought that MissingNo's evolution was 'M'.

The first time I managed to obtain a pictoral list of all 151 Pokémon (in the summer of 1999), I had all kinds of misgivings and incorrect assumptions regarding evolutionary lines. Among them:
- I thought Kamonegi evolved into Dodo
- I thought that Shellder, Pearshen, Ghosu, Ghosto, and Gengar were all part of the same evolutionary chain (don't ask)
- I thought Gyarados evolved into Lapras (again, don't ask)
- I thought Eevee evolved into Showers, then Thunders, then Booster
- And of course, I thought Freezer evolved into Thunder and then into Fire

Similarly, before I obtained the video games, I thought they were a side-scrolling "Mario"-like adventure in which the main character ran around trying to catch escaped Pokémon in a net.

 

[Timid Kyogre]

Many O_O But the latest one I remember was that I thought that Plusle and Minun were somehow related to Pichu, Pikachu, and Raichu.

[General Blaze]

For a while, I thought that Trapinch didn't evolve. I also thought Blaziken was pronounced Blazen >_>

 

[The Benmeister]

I thought Weepinbell evolved into Bellsprout...do NOT ask...

 

[MaskedManAbsolkid]

Farfetch'd > Doduo > Dodrio
Totodile > Croconaw > Tyranitar
Volbeat > Voltorb > Electrode

Three wrong evo lines I thought were true.

Others included me thinking there was Braille in Littleroot, and that May was given ash's Bulbasaur in the anime.

 

[Komedic Konservationist]

I thought Weepinbell evolved into Bellsprout...do NOT ask...

Maybe because it would be more conventent for a Pokemon to sprout legs upon evolution rather than lose them?
I used to think Pinsir evolved into Heracross. It should have done, too.

 

[Torkoal Stu]

I use to think Gardevior and Grovlye were connected somehow and I use to pronouce Garevior "Grow-vior" :/

I also thought Entei was an Arcannie evolution.

 

[Silver Fusion]

Once I believed that Pinsir evolved into Heracross using the Metal Coat.

 

[DarkerShining]

Well, when I first saw a picture of Espeon, I thought it was the evolution of Persian.

I also thought Carvanha didn't evolve...

 

[Tropical Spirit]

I thought Weepinbell evolved into Bellsprout...do NOT ask...

You weren't the only one. >_>;

I also thought Numel was a dragon type and that the Ralts line were grass types.

...And that Tropius was part dragon.

 

[ChaosMage]

In GSC, I couldn't find Houndour anywhere (and it wound up not even being available in Johto!) and I thought that it was an evolution of Growlithe with the Darkglasses... me fool. And Donphan being related to Rhyhorn, those were the days...

 

[Dragonfree]

When I was training on my Gold (we moved into a tiny apartment while our new house was being built, and I was bored out of my life there - spent practically all day inching towards Pokédex completion), I didn't think Pupitar evolved again so I just let it rot in my PC.

When I was first playing through Yellow, I had found out that Pikachu's Thundershock didn't work on Brock's Geodude and Onix, but I didn't quite get types and thought that was because they were a Gym leader's Pokémon so they were too strong for such a weak attack (since Pikachu started with it, and Quick Attack, which it learned later, worked). Therefore I insisted on using Quick Attack on Misty. XD

Those are the main ones... unless you count that when I first beat Yellow, I didn't think you could continue afterwards.

 

[Komedic Konservationist]

I also used to think that Wobbuffet was a shark, Arcanine was a tiger, Whiscash was a whale, Houndoom was an antelope, and Charizard was good. The last one is by far the most shameful
