Hey, guys. I'm back with another potential conspiracy theory. I once posted here about... I believe it was my theory about Game Freak, from what I remember. Regardless, I've got a new one that further develops on this. I can summarize this one with a grand total of six words.
Team Plasma was right all along.
Now you ask, what exactly do I mean by that, and how the heck did I come to such a conclusion? Well, hear me out. Assuming I did remember to post about my Game Freak theory, part of that was about how Game Freak created the entirety of the Pokémon multiverse from the inside out and monitors every little action from within the real world by placing themselves within their own multiverse, i.e. the Game Freak members seen scattered throughout the series. For as long as the franchise has been going, the human characters of this mortal plane never thought much of the impact of their actions and have been living and battling with Pokémon for ages now. It's what all of these people were programmed to do and think, and this applies even to all of Pokémon's evil teams- except for one man.
Enter N, the mysterious green haired boy who was raised alongside Pokémon instead of humans. There's plenty of evidence to suggest that N was not of the same origins as other humans in the Pokémon timeline. Some people, myself included, even think he might have actually been a Pokémon himself this whole time, specifcally a Zoroark raised in the forest. Regardless of if this is true, though, N being born and raised around Pokémon, even if he isn't one himself, led him to see how Pokémon truly are in the wild. Unlike humans, Pokémon are generated by Game Freak's numeric algorithms being ran behind the scene, and while they have a sense of free will in their actions, they never had a sense with their purpose of spawning into the game world. They just kind of... did. Destined to do absolutely nothing with other humans until one approaches them.
This is where Team Plasma's motives come into play. As a batch of human characters, they wanted to take N, an entirely unique human, under their wing and raise him up as their king. Led by Ghetsis of the Seven Sages, him and N did actually share one genuine opinion at one point. They both believed Pokémon weren't meant to be taken advantage of by people. I would even go as far as to say that Ghetsis taking in N as his adopted son would have been a chance for the human characters to stand up against Game Freak's tyranny, but there's one small problem. Ghetsis is a human character too, and since he and N are so radically different, Game Freak designed the storyline of Unova to separate N and Ghetsis in the end without giving them the chance to learn the truth that N was already aware of for so long, as a human AI figure able to learn the truth because of his origin story from an in-universe perspective.
Long story short, Game Freak had Ghetsis be an evil and corrupt character to manipulate N this whole time in order to maintain their own ideal picture of the Pokémon universe and effectively silence any human characters who wanted justice for the Pokémon themselves. Together with N, Ghetsis himself could have maybe learned the truth, but Game Freak's corruption ultimately divided Team Plasma in the end and even changed N's own ideals a bit in the process.
