Hello all! I'm new to the writer's corner, but I had some interesting thoughts on some interesting facts about Pokemon, and I bet you have always thought of some interesting questions about Pokemon. So, in this thread you can pretend to be a professor or scientist who has a theory or has made a discovery about Pokemon! It can range from popular topics like Gengar/Clefairy or personal questions like the secret of mega evolution. You can go out and say some extreme stuff that disproves existing information too, like, "Manaphy isn't a legendary Pokemon!", but make sure to give some examples or data to back up your research.
I'll start with an intresting theory I've had for a long time, and one of the reasons why I like Regigigas so much: Regigigas created Heatran

Hello there! I am a scientist from the Unova region currently doing some studies in Sinnoh. While in Sinnoh, a particular Pokemon caught my eye: Regigigas. After informing myself on this Pokemon, I decided to do some background research and propose some questions. Everyone knows that Regigigas created Regirock, Regice, and Registeel. Studies have shown that Registeel came several years before Regice and Regirock, but was he the first Pokemon Regigigas created? I believe that Regigigas accidentally created Heatran, and I have data to back up my theory.
Regigigas created Registeel using a special kind of magma that hardened into metal. Registeel shows no fire-like properties, but Heatran does. Did Regigigas make a mistake, like using too much magma or not enough metal in the creation progress? All four of the Regi's are bipedal, but Heatran is not. Heatran does weigh more than double that of Registeel. It possibly might have been unable to support itself on two legs and dissatisfied Regigigas by staying on all fours. Perhaps, Regigigas intended Heatran to be a steel type bipedal Pokemon? However, something went wrong and Regigigas seemed to have started over. The "metal armor" on Heatran seems incomplete as it is covering its face and legs, but the rest is missing. This could be because Regigigas wasn't satisfied with creation before he finished it and abandoned it or disposed of it. Today however, the Heatran species is alive, leading me to believe that it either ran away from Regigigas or Regigigas set it free.
In summary, I believe that Heatran was an accident, created by Regigigas. What was supposed to be Registeel was consumed by magma, and a new Pokemon was born: Heatran.
