Nothing reveals Humanity so well as the games it plays. A game of betrayal, where the most suspicious person is brutally murdered? How savage.

I used to have two female rabbits who would hump each other all the time. I guess rabbits just really like to hump, regardless of gender?
, Pokemon is part of the Star Trek: Voyager universe
The Voyager episode that serves as a catalyst to the entire Pokemon universe
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flesh_and_Blood_%28Star_Trek:_Voyager%29
The episode itself is only tangentially related - the pertinent point is that the Hirogen have hologram technology (courtesy of the crew of Voyager in an earlier episode) and that they used it to make sentient solid holographic prey that didn't rely on emitters
Now imagine that they seeded a planet with ridiculously powerful animal-esque hologram prey. Then imagine them growing bored/abandoning that planet, and then what it would be like 100,000 years later? When the sentient human-like species arise to a planet filled with 'evolving' powerful semi-sentient creatures with unfathomable and unnatural powers who can be 'captured' and beamed like light into balls.
Pokemon started as programmed hologram prey for the Hirogen thousands of years ago on some remote M-class planet in the D sector.
E:
there is a yet-undiscovered planetary wide power source that they tap into inherently.
Powering each holoprey individually is a hassle and inefficient. Having the prey self-replicate and automatically tap into a universal source is easier and quicker
and giving them the ability to 'evolve' under specific circumstances makes them more challenging to hunt.
Plus, giving a 'legendary' holoprey the ability to create other unique holoprey increases the challenge even moreso. Hence Arceus and the 'history of pokemon' that that planet knows of them. http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/History_of_the_Pok%C3%A9mon_world
Notice how often the AI binds a new holoprey build to a type? And that one new 'type' gives rise to many similar types in that line? "They all ultimately went extinct, but not before Archen gave rise to bird Pokémon and Tirtouga gave rise to turtle Pokémon. " <- for example.
You're welcome. Set phasers to 'stunned'.

The poképlanet is in the Delta Quadrant? Well, that dashes my hopes of ever meeting a pokémon.
author=Jeroen_SolThat is correct. Also, it is set far far into the future.

also, fuck. theory confirmed:

"Porygon is a Pokémon made completely out of programming code." They have successfully reversed engineered the hologram system (at least partially).

Yknow, for all the flak Voyager gets, I quite liked it. Although that may just be because I haven't gotten around to watching TNG yet. I really should do that at some point though. I keep meaning to start watching it.
The Unown pokemon finally make sense then.
"Unown is an extremely rare Pokémon that lives in its own dimension and rarely ventures outside. When it moves to the Pokémon world, Unown tends to stick to walls like engravings of ancient texts or orbit other Unown."
They basically sound like a programming bug, or data that got memory leaked.

haha I like the sound of pokemon as holoprey.
The only Star Trek I didn't really like was Enterprise, but it did have it's moments. DS9 and Voyager are great almost because they are not like TNG. You can't recreate the magic of TNG.
Also, I used RPGmaker for something!
It's not just a combo video, I used 2k3 to make classic NES scenes that tie it all together to make it look like a Let's Play of a classic Mega Man game.
It's long, 43 minutes, but there is a shorter 18 min version.

A buffer overflow maybe?
Enterprise was decent, if you could get past the horrible nonStartrek intro music. (I could not).
TNG is easily my favorite and Picard is the best captain.
(actually re watching it right now)
I couldn't get into Enterprise either

Now this surprises me! I thought you would have gone for Picard.
Picard is the better captain as an actual captain of a statship. He's more captainy than Kirk. Kirk is a better fighter and stronger in that field I believe but lacks that grace and finesse of Picard.
And while I love classic ST I really grew up with TNG so i'll always be partial. I also like Data more than Spock
Benjamin Sisko was the best. Even though he wasn't a captain.
He even has his own moment just like "There are four lights".
"It's a clock!"

Picard is a diplomat, and was definitely more cautious than Kirk. Kirk came from a time when much of the Alpha Quadrant was still unexplored. Picard was a product of his time. Space travel was no longer a novelty and he had the luxury of arrogance, whereas Kirk's arrogance came less from luxury and more from necessity. For Kirk, arrogance was necessary because he was more often facing situations where technology couldn't help and only the art of the bluff could save the day. You even saw it in show with Picard. He may have been the captain, but when Riker was in the big chair, you could clearly see he was much better at bluffing than Picard was. They're both good captain's but ask yourself this: if your ass is in the fire, who do you think is most likely to be able to pull it out?
There are times when Kirk lost people because he was really helpless. Picard, on the other, has lost people because he wouldn't act. A stickler for the rules, he let the prime directive bind him, even when it wasn't necessary, or even when it wasn't advisable, exemplifying the rigidly unwavering bureaucrat.
