QUOTE(Celadon @ May 11 2009, 07:22 AM)  QUOTE Also, alternative biology. We take sexual reproduction very much for granted because that's how most 'higher' organisms maintain genetic diversity on our planet. But I'd also like to remind you - the PokeMon world is NOT Earth. Sexless higher creatures COULD exist. That is all fine. But still, what about the baby Lugia? A baby cannot be cloned all by itself, now, could it be? Okay, I could not let this go: IT'S CALLED PARTHOGENESIS. Many terran species can make babies without males! That's why Komodo dragons have a roughly 75/25 male/female ratio! (they use the ZW system, not the XY system. Look it up) In fact, most... phylum? I think that's it... on Earth have been shown to have this to some degree or another. Hell, Lugia might even be a hermaphroditic species for all we know! :> Then while a partner would be genetically desirable, they could have babies without them. It's not a big deal to have 100% female or gender imbalanced populations; those exist in real life. Please for the love of god don't EVER bring this arguement up again. EVER. Keep in mind that I design species FOR FUN. Including several that reproduce through non-standard means. -------------------- |
