Does pokemon have religion

i know in pokemon they have legendries that some of them think created something or is the being of whatever, but do they have a religion like christianity, judaism or hinduism?

Well, with Arceus, you could relate it to Christianity. Arceus was born from an egg, God appeared. Arceus created Time and Space (Dialga and Palkia) and then the world, and technically, God did also. So if that answers your question, accept it. I don't know what you meant or anything.

I said no because I don't know how you could possibly relate a religion too a Pokemon game. I don't even think they would be allowed to do that in the first place.

It would be kinda weird, but it is an important question. I say they do have religions, because how else would they be created?

There are a ton of games that have religion in them, and Pokemon is no different. In the anime, there are also references to religion, like Brock doing a reference of Noah in an episode. And in the Diamond and Pearl, in Hearthome City, there's a Church in there, implying religion or some sort.

I admit that there are small references to religion in the Pokemon series and games, but altogether I doubt that Pokemon "has a religion".

There's a God in the game. A God then is worshiped. And if it's worshiped, then they'll make a religion out of it. Think about it, religion is faith or a belief system. If they believe that Arceus created the Pokemon world, then a religion will start. Budda, God itself, Zeus, and other gods who created the world are all worshiped or was worshiped. Arceus is no different, there will be people in the game and anime who will worship it. We will have to see what happens in the Arceus movie, then.

I think there is a religion based on a lot of the Legendary Pokemon like Ho-Oh, Lugia, Celebi, Groudon, Kyogre, Rayquaza, Dialga, Palkia, Giratina, and Arceus. I mean, if it was comparable to any real-life religion, I would say that it would be very close to the religion of the Greeks.

Basically Polytheism (the pokemon stated above) with a few demigods and other beings thrown in for good measure (the demis being the other legendaries not mentioned with the exception of Deoxys and Mewtwo, because they're supposedly too recently discovered within the timeline to count.)

In short, there is a religion that is loosely based off of real life religion. But the truth is that the religion is vague and it is rarely ever touched upon.
