what people get wrong when they try to create fake/fan titles for pokémon games is they think the two words have to be opposites in some way. sure some of them are, or at least counterparts, but a lot of those pairs are just whatever they honestly felt like that had even the smallest thing in common. now thematically the version differences are likely gonna be opposites or counterparts in some ways but like the titles aren’t always gonna reflect that

#like. would you guess that scarlet and violet represent past and future respectively #probably not #and it’s funny cuz it seems like the only reason they chose those two words is bc *phonetically* they share similarities #or how about diamond and pearl for time and space #ruby and sapphire? at least for those there’s color coordination of a sort between land vs water #black and white definitely do the whole duality thing well though cuz it’s about yin and yang/tao stuff with ideals and truth or w/e #pokémon #what i’m saying is pokémon home depot and pokémon lowes are pretty convincing as far as titles go
