  I love that a lot of people take &quot;well she turned down Brock&quot; as partial evidence for the Ivy theory, as though Brock doesn&apos;t get turned down <i>constantly</i>

  Citing &quot;bug collecting&quot; as &quot;&quot;&quot;proof&quot;&quot;&quot; for Tajiri&apos;s autism shows an incredible lack of cultural awareness from whoever decided to list that in the rumour mill - collecting bugs is a pretty common hobby in Japan (and many heroes like Kamen Rider have design elements that recall bugs because of their popularity as a whole), and a lot of franchises over the decades have used this as a way to transpose that hobby into something that could be sold. Kinnikuman figures have been a thing since 1983, and they&apos;re all about collecting them all.

  I appreciate the Ivy Twitter guy and the book writer both admitting they were wrong to not research better and admit they probably got it wrong. Surprisingly mature responses. I figured everyone would double down even harder.

  Anyone else find assigning a person a mental disorder, solely based on minor details like their hobbies, incredibly odd and inappropriate? Especially in the case of Tajiri, there&apos;s a lot of assumptions and simply not knowing how cultures can differ.

  &quot;Apparently she&apos;s written over 100 books, most within a few weeks&quot; <br><br>Those are either some short books, some bad books, or she can just type <i>damn</i> fast. Possibly all 3.

  Big respect for putting your money where your mouth is. Not many channels would go to the lengths of fact checking that you guys do these days.

  I gotta wonder if it took multiple takes to say &nbsp;&quot;Twitter user &apos;dragonmilfs&apos;...&quot; with a straight face and in such a serious tone.

  I had always thought of Ditto being a failed Mew as a fan theory. I didn&apos;t realize people apparently thought it was actually true.

  A few months ago I saw someone bring up the &quot;Satoshi Tajiri is Autistic&quot; thing and tried to debunk it to them due to the fact it lacked any credible sources, but they just got pissed at me for it. I&apos;m Autistic myself so yes it may be sad to see it&apos;s not true, but I value making sure information is correct more. Thanks for looking into this and giving others a place to point to as proof this isn&apos;t real in the future.
