Is he in some way not already secret training both Jessie and James. Who knows with Team Rocket? What I meant, though, was that human Meowth could become a Pokemon trainer himself. Perhaps the fact that he was once one himself would make his understanding that much more intimate. Would he like being human. |

Perhaps the fact that he was once one himself would make his understanding that much more intimate. Would he like being human. Probably not at first, due to the fact that he'd lose the powers he had as a Pokemon. Plus, he'd gain nothing in the way of being able to talk (since he could already do that as a Meowth). Still, he'd be able to eat at restaurants without someone trying to catch him, for example. That said, the benefits of transformation might be outweighed by the loss of his former Poke-hood in his eyes. |

'WI The Adeptus Mechanicus Made Tech Priests Into Full-Blown Robots?'
This would be the fandom equivalent of ASB due to how exploring AI is verboten throughout the Imperium of Man.

AI is considered tech-heresy, using robots itself isn't. As for turning tech priests into robots, some of them are actually doing it by replacing all their organic parts due to them either rotting away or due to being disgusted by their concieved weakness of the flesh. |

Sorry, I should've clarified that the tech-priests were somehow made into AI robots, probably by undergoing a similar process as the Necrons had. And I thought that replacing every single organic part with mechanical components was also considered heresy? That's what I recall reading at one point, anyway. |

It Will probably depend on what faction of the machine Cult you are talking about since they do not all agree on the details. So some Will think it is what the Omnisihhah would have wanted and others Will think about as heresy. |

That sounds realistic to me; the Mechanicus is as diverse as the greater galaxy aside from its shared principles, after all. Whatever the case, I think that Dark Mechanicum members would be much more prone to experimenting in all-mechanical bodies than their Imperial counterparts. Also, 'WI The Iron Men Came Back?'. This likely wouldn't be frivolous if not for the fact that we know so little about them in the first place. |

'Creators Get ISOTed Into Their Own Fictional Works'. I wonder how the likes of Satoshi Tajiri would enjoy actually training Pokemon himself, or Gene Roddenberry living in the (semi-) utopian sci-fi setting he dreamed of and devised over the years.

Do not know if people like George R. R. Martin would survive in his on word where murder, deception and killing is the done so much it is normal. |

Yeah, living in the Game of Thrones universe would suck. Similar can be said of the Maze Runner and even more so with Warhammer 40K.
On the other hand, Iain Banks would likely enjoy living amongst The Culture from his book series of the same name.

'WI The Iron Giant Encountered Superman?' Superman would win, its not the first time he encountered giants. Well, sure, I can see him emerging victorious in a fight. But I was actually thinking (and should've been more clear in expressing such) that the two met in a non-hostile context, with Superman initially trying to communicate with the puzzled Giant before coming to an understanding.
The latter would likely recognize the former, given that Hogarth talked about Superman at least once in the movie.
