The Charizard Paradox

The Charizard Paradox is a phenomenon in Pokémon and similar franchises where a character has a limited number of “types” it can have and is forced to exclude certain important aspects from its typing in order for equally important aspects to be included in its typing.

This phenomenon was originally named by Pokemon YouTuber MandJtv in his video titled The Charizard Paradox.

Guy 1: wait this thing isn’t evil type? But it’s super evil. That’s like it’s whole thing.

Guy 2: well it’s also a ghost plant thing. It’s ghost plant type.

Guy 1: but it being evil is like equally important as it being a ghost.

Guy 2: it’s also equally important that it’s a plant.

Guy 1: damnit it’s The Charizard Paradox.
