Attention readers: A second edition of this book has been released with updated and improved content. It also includes information about a wider range of Pok mon not featured in this first edition - ISBN: 979-8392094165. Have you ever wondered about the origins of each Pok mon species? Written by a college researcher on Classics and Comparative Mythology (and fan of the original games), this completely unofficial book finally reveals the Pok mon legends and origins behind the first 251 creatures from the famous japanese series. It also contains some occasional jokes, many pieces of trivia you likely never heard before, and even a special chapter on all of those almost-forgotten creatures that never made it into the final games. Whether you played the older games or the more recent Pokemon Go, by reading this book you will finally understand why Charmander has a fiery tail, the true reason behind Magikarp's astonishing evolution, where Pikachu's real name comes from, what is happening to Flaafy's wool, what's the dark secret behind Wobbuffet's and Girafarig's strange tails, and why Teddiursa has a crescent in its forehead, among many, many other such curiosities
