What about a 'devil' of all pokemon.

---

Many religions don't have the Christian and Muslim 'devil' character, just evil spirits, and pokémon has plenty of those. Having a creator, along with other powers like the legendary birds and Regis, makes it more like Hinduism in religious terms (creator, maintainer, destroyer). Since Hinduism is popular in Japan, it's no real surprise.
Though to be honest, pokémon has always gone by a fairly Buddhist mantra of living creatures together in harmony before now. Maybe Satoshi Tajiri converted.

That's interesting really... Mew came first, and somehow bred an Arseus (ok, maybe it was real evolution instead of the pokemon version).
Arseus created the matter, and then Kyogre and Groundon, who created the land and sea, along with Rayquaza, who stopped their fight (Kyo having won by a large amount). Celebi was created to grow forests on the land and presumably plants in the sea.

That seems odd, that Mew would create Arseus. So perhaps Arseus created Mew, as an animal counterpart to Celebi. Mew created all the other pokémon, and other animals.

The rest of the legendaries are more like guardians though.. keeping power and other creatures in line, and then in turn kept in line by the others.. Lugia guards the legendary birds, who guard the power centres in Kanto. Ho-oh guards the dogs, who guard the Johto powers.

What does that leave us with.. the Regis. They take the power in Hoenn, and are kept in line by the bigger DP Regi.
Mewtwo was created from Mew, Deoxys is a mutated space virus. Jrirachi - perhaps Jirachi created humans (wishing is an abstract concept, like hope and so on, that defines humans quite well.)

Maybe it's not the end of the pokémon series, but they're just revealing more about how it works? I hope that's what's happening.
