My theory is that Phione are a Manaphy’s servants and protectors as a part of their “royal court”; since Manaphy is called the Sea Prince. Manaphy give birth to Phione much like the way Queen Bees give birth to soldier bees to for a colony.
The reason why Phione doesn’t evolve into Manaphy is because not any old Phione is worthy of becoming the Sea Prince. I think a new Manaphy is born every millennia and destined to become the new Sea Prince
For Those who know Zelda; it’s sort of like the Gerudo situation
Its a fun secret based on the fact that Manaphy is linked to eggs. They didn't want infinite Manaphy so they made Manaphy but shit.
Despite what people think; Gamefreak don't give a shit about "muh pokedex bloat", they care if they achieve anything.
Or rather are something distinct, was Phione really successful in this? Eh a decent few people remember Manaphys weird tard baby.
Carbink is pretty different even if its linked lore wise. Its a normal mon linked to a mythical, not a weird secret from a mythical.
Can you explain to me, why there are weird bike pokemon?? Where did that come from. That's the one I know I'm not bothering with unfortunately. I only just saw that recently somehow. Like last week. It deeply saddened me.
PLA is the only game worthy of your time. LG: Pikachu/Eevee has the best graphics and nostalgia points but the gameplay itself is horrifyingly tedious. Sword/Shield is more of a gray area, you might find yourself liking them or hating them. Their DLC is a mild improvement however. So far, Scarlet/Violet is the buggiest, most troublesome switch pokemon games so far. But who knows, their DLC might improve them. My suggestion is, keep your money for now.
>dude let's just remove the yellow color from manaphy and call it a new pokemon LMAO
mythicals in shitno were a huge mistake literally the representation of the lack of creativity
So you could breed a bunch of them and trade them to all your friends who didn't have Manaphy for their best Pokemon.
I forget that thing exists. Phione?
SInnoh decided to go all in on legendaries since they seemed to be the most popular pokemon so they stuffed the gen full of them

That sounds cool. Is that actual Phione/Manaphy lore or just your own idea?
There was a movie but I never saw it, did it touch on anything like that?
The prince thing is from the games.
Its easier to hardcode a limitation to that than making an entire new pokemon.
This is basically how Carbink and Diancie are related.
So they could continue the "mythical gen number" pattern
Phione and manaphy's antenne look like IV next to each other
Because Manaphy was first obtained from an egg. If you can get a Manaphy egg, then what's stopping you from getting more out of the daycare?
Why was this Pokemon created?
What even is that. This one from Sun/Moon?
Literally Phione but Rock-type and widely available in the wild.

Right, we got 3 dry gens in succession out of coindicence.
Haven't played any of the switch games yet. I know I'm going to play the Sinnoh remake.
Which others should I pick up? I know nothing about them.
For your sanity and your wallet, none.

its a marketable thing they wanted to sell keychains of or some shit
because the dp dex was at 150 and they just couldn’t resist
phione isn't in the dp dex
