People soon began to take the rumors to a new level and come up with their own ideas for Pokémon, PokéGods. The name branches from the fact that many of these creations were mysterious and godlike, and possessed powers surpassing {{bp|Mewtwo}}, who was regarded to be the strongest Pokémon in the games. These new rumors took advantage of the lack of knowledge that the fandom had of the games at this time and used it to describe elusive Pokémon that can only be caught in inaccessible areas on the map. One would often have to beat the Elite Four a given number of times or evolve their unevolvable Pokémon through some previously unknown means. The people that spread these rumors often succeeded in fooling so many people by saying that they or one of their family members worked at Nintendo. | People soon began to take the rumors to a new level and come up with their own ideas for Pokémon, PokéGods.

A website named [http://pokefactory.pokemology.com Pokémon Factory] was founded for the purpose of creating an entire new section of the Pokédex with PokéGods. It was created more for artistic purposes than for spreading rumors. It went on to create expanded Pokédexes for {{bp|Johto}}, {{bp|Hoenn}}, and {{bp|Sinnoh}} as well. | A website named [http://pokefactory.pokemology.com Pokémon Factory] was founded for the purpose of creating an entire new section of the Pokédex with PokéGods.

The announcement of sequels to the Generation I core series titles breathed new life into the PokéGods fandom as new games meant that more species of Pokémon would be added. This lead to speculation as to what Pokémon are to be expected in the new games, and as official artwork was released, the hype increased. | The announcement of sequels to the Generation I core series titles breathed new life into the PokéGods fandom as new games meant that more species of Pokémon would be added.
