As someone who has a very strong hyperfixation on biology and Pokémon, i need to rant about heights and how people spread things without researching or reflecting about them.
My subject this time is FURRET.
So, everyone knows Furret, the gen 2 normal ferret haha Furret walk haha meme. Furret is, in its pokedex, stated to be 6’/1,80m tall. The problem is: people are not properly representing this height.
You see, in real life, we measure an animal from head to tail. A good example of this would be the snow leopard.
A snow leopard is said to be 7’/2,1m long, head to tail. Its body measures 4’/1,1m long and its tail is 3’/1m long.
In Furret, we must apply the same logic, because if we don’t, it’s going to look like THIS
Ridiculous, right? Many people like to represent Furret like this for the shock value.
But when we apply the head-tail logic to its length…
