I'm absolutely not an expert--i just like theory and gods and stories. So criticism, evidence, and opinions welcome!
Initial assumptions I'm working from:
- Mew is the ancestor of all Pokemon
- Arceus created the universe
- Those two facts came into being in that order--that is, Mew received that description first, then later Arceus was introduced with a superceding description
So, my thought is that in-universe, their respective roles exist in that order, too--without any time travel shenanigans--and aren't in conflict, they're just ill-defined. So, Mew is the originator, in kind of an old-school nature god way. Existed before everything, but made no claims to godhood because that distinction wasn't necessary at the time and it didn't think of itself in those terms--arguably, Mew wouldn't have (or initially didn't have) a sense of self like modern views of anthropomorphic and sentient gods do, because Mew was the only thing and everything, so identity wasn't needed.
Mew then created something that wasn't itself; again, not out of an intention or logic because it isn't/wasn't those things. Mew was just raw power or a force of nature; maybe an emotional being in the same way primal forces seem to have emotions when viewed by sentients like us, but not a being with a plan.
So Mew created the small scale version of the Pokemon world as seen in the properties for gen 1, the games, tcg, and show. A small, bounded world with some rudimentary rules and a mish-mash of elements (high tech areas, seemingly backwoods areas [could no one rig some lights in the friggen caves?], spirits, animal and plant monsters alongside sludge, automatons, semi-humans, failed clones, fabled monsters, revivified prehistoric creatures, psychics). And then, as you would if you created something, Mew inserted itself into a corporeal form inside the world to experience it. Gave itself some backstory identity because that's what everything in the little world had, and went to play.
Side thought: even in its corporeal form and bound by some rules, Mew was still absurdly powerful in a "are you sure you aren't a god?" kind of way, but never acted like you would assume a self-aware and omnipotent being would. It seemed to exist mostly for the joy of existing.
So, now having some identity and experiencing the inside of its world, Mew has cause to recognize some of the unanswered questions of its world and see how small it is, and answers them by rolling out: gen 2, a whole new w

I am planning a cafe-bistro, but I don't want to play pop, rock, bullshit instrumentals from Cafe del Mar, etc. What are some easy-on-the-ear pieces of classical music that my guests can enjoy, without being overwhelmed?
Will I be able to get something out of it by just practicing, or will it be useless without a tutor?
I don't want to step on anybody's toes here, but the amount of non-dad jokes here in this subreddit really annoys me. First of all, dad jokes CAN be NSFW, it clearly says so in the sub rules. Secondly, it doesn't automatically make it a dad joke if it's from a conversation between you and your child. Most importantly, the jokes that your CHILDREN tell YOU are not dad jokes. The point of a dad joke is that it's so cheesy only a dad who's trying to be funny would make such a joke. That's it. They are stupid plays on words, lame puns and so on. There has to be a clever pun or wordplay for it to be considered a dad joke.
Again, to all the fellow dads, I apologise if I'm sounding too harsh. But I just needed to get it off my chest.
The nurse asked the rabbit, “what is your blood type?”

Alot of great jokes get posted here! However just because you have a joke, doesn't mean it's a dad joke.
THIS IS NOT ABOUT NSFW, THIS IS ABOUT LONG JOKES, BLONDE JOKES, SEXUAL JOKES, KNOCK KNOCK JOKES, POLITICAL JOKES, ETC BEING POSTED IN A DAD JOKE SUB
Try telling these sexual jokes that get posted here, to your kid and see how your spouse likes it.. if that goes well, Try telling one of your friends kid about your sex life being like Coca cola, first it was normal, than light and now zero , and see if the parents are OK with you telling their kid the "dad joke"
I'm not even referencing the NSFW, I'm saying Dad jokes are corny, and sometimes painful, not sexual
So check out r/jokes for all types of jokes
r/unclejokes for dirty jokes
r/3amjokes for real weird and alot of OC
r/cleandadjokes If your really sick of seeing not dad jokes in r/dadjokes

We told her she can lean on us for support. Although, we are going to have to change her driver's license, her height is going down by a foot. I don't want to go too far out on a limb here but it better not be a hack job.
