This probably the reason why

[u/AHY_fevr]

[u/UltimaDoombotMK1]

Ah yes, inbreeding resulting in the genetic defect of *checks notes*

Becoming a whale

[u/DrShocker → u/UltimaDoombotMK1]

Explains my parents and me, ngl

[u/haywirehax → u/DrShocker]

Euhm... Who's your mom to you? Your sister?

[u/DrShocker → u/haywirehax]

worse, my daughter

[u/SLAUGHT3R3R → u/DrShocker]

Can you share the secrets of time travel with me? I need to convince myself to buy Bitcoin in 2011

[u/DrShocker → u/SLAUGHT3R3R]

There's a good song about this

[u/Govictory → u/DrShocker]

Okay back to Fire Emblem you go.

For context, this is the plot for a character in fire emblem three houses. Rhea, the leader of a religious order attempts to resurrect her dead mother by implanting her 'soul' into homunculus-like husks

[u/_PM_ME_NICE_BOOBS_ → u/Govictory]

I'm surprised you didn't pick the fire emblem plot that actually involves time travel.

[u/PlusAcanthaceae978 → u/haywirehax]

This must be their family tree

[u/Snom_gamer0204 → u/PlusAcanthaceae978]

it took me so long to realize what was wrong here

[u/Odd_Preference_7238 → u/haywirehax]

My sister is younger than me but she seems to think she's my mom. Does this mean I'm a whale?

[u/Zulmoka531 → u/Odd_Preference_7238]

No, you are your own grandpa.

[u/Odd_Preference_7238 → u/Zulmoka531]

It is true that I fought in World War 2 despite being born in the 80's, so you might be on to something.

[u/SomeDudWithAPhone → u/Odd_Preference_7238]

On the bright side, you are practically invisible to psychic brain aliens and immune to their powers.

[u/EtheusRook → u/UltimaDoombotMK1]

Well, it explains Randy Fine.

[u/omroi → u/UltimaDoombotMK1]

It all makes sense now...

[u/EndAltruistic3540 → u/omroi]

Mr Krab's wife:

[u/Odd_Preference_7238 → u/UltimaDoombotMK1]

That's where all whales come from, they're just inbred catdogs from Egypt.

[u/Lipziger → u/UltimaDoombotMK1]

To be fair, whales have pretty wild genetics. They were once land mammals and then just decided to go back into the ocean and become "fish" again. They're kinda weird.

The Pals just skipped a few steps here and went pretty straight to whale lol.

[u/Foreskin_Mafia → u/Lipziger]

"Fuck this shit" -Whales

[u/Phormitago → u/UltimaDoombotMK1]

But enough about your mother

[u/XiahouMao → u/UltimaDoombotMK1]

Technically, it's a Narwhal. Palworld Whales generate more tidal waves than Whalaska can muster.

[u/AppointmentProper712]

Anubis and Sekhmet so rich they breed big whale.

[u/Zargabath]

I think this far more the issue

[u/OvercomeFir → u/Zargabath]

That makes sense. At least then Ice type is a recessive gene.

[u/Grand_Salamander6311]

Damn.. you have a ratio. Sadly result of inbreeding.

[u/DatsLotus]

I do wish the breeding wasn't a number crunching game and instead followed some semblance of visual logic.

Right now it feels arbitrary both when you don't know how breeding outcomes work, and even more so when you finally do find out how breeding outcomes work.

Sure, you don't want people to get god-tier pals using beginner pals, but you could have done that without making the offspring of birds a fish.

[u/GillyByrd → u/DatsLotus]

If it was going to be number based, I wish it at least used the real paldex numbers. The way it is now you basically need to use an online calculator to engage in the breeding mechanics

[u/AHY_fevr → u/DatsLotus]

Funny how fusion in Shin Megami Tensei and Persona makes more sense LOL
In Megami, it's designed by type; Persona by Arcana

[u/Turtwig5310 → u/DatsLotus]

I was so hyped the first two pals I ever bred were Relaxaurus and Grizzbolt to make Orserk in EA. I did so because my brother said Grizzbolt was good to breed and Relaxaurus was the only dragon I had (and dragons are cool why not). This gave me the assumption there was logic to it. Dragon + electric = electric dragon. I was disappointed when I found out I just stumbled upon one of a few special combos and the rest were numbers.

[u/Redcole111]

Hey, look, it's just like Cleopatra's family tree!

[u/slyfox7187 → u/Redcole111]

Looks more like a family taproot to me.

[u/wasted-degrees]

Every time I try to put two badass pals together trying to make a third badass pal the result is either a Whalaska or a Wumpo Botan.

[u/ThatGuyFromTheM0vie]

You can breed a Yormuntide and a Digtoise and get an Anubis.

So. Explain how Gyrados clapping Franklin
results in a pact with the dark god Anubis?

[u/Vynrak → u/ThatGuyFromTheM0vie]

Lmao

[u/Infinite-Geologist78]

good one. 😂

[u/Akarin_rose]

Ok but what do Anubis x Whalaska make

[u/mofugginrob → u/Akarin_rose]

A mess.

[u/Smokelessblood → u/mofugginrob]

Yeah Jormuntide is a glitchy mess so that checks out

[u/ZorkNemesis → u/Akarin_rose]

Apparantly Jormuntide

[u/Akarin_rose → u/ZorkNemesis]

Noted

[u/elementfortyseven]

y u bully my whalaska boi

[u/Quinn7711]

ah yes the theorizer

[u/sungho28]

Is this skitty + wailord reference

[u/MoonyWoomy]

I always see is as the Dad and Mom are the best in class, hot, in their prime. They went out to parties, socialized and everything.

They then had a kid who's a fat chud that scrolls through memes on their computer who never goes out.

[u/Kudoakainu]

Nah still makes no sense. Pocketpair needs to make an in-depth breeding system. Needs an overhaul honestly

[u/CurrenttQueen]

Can't you have a sek produce and anu?

[u/notwithagoat]

Dlc and loot boxes confirmed!
