>in 1999 GF made a game where a man with chisel, hammer and fruit is all technology you need to make pokeball
>in 2008 GF included the shrinking thing in another one of their games
>in 2016 GF referenced the book's original story again in the official Pokemon fan club website
>in 2022 GF made another game that not only says pokemon fucking shrink (again) but is set 150 years ago, before shrinking-beam human technology is even worth to consider as a possibility
