First of all, I want to say that I am back in my newspaper, with the "Pokémon Theories" series.
Some of the theories I will present were made up by me, some are very know within the Pokémon Fandom. Please comment and, if you like, suggest some theories to me!
Theory 1 - Did Giovanni commit suicide in Pokémon HeartGold/SoulSilver?
This is one of the most well-known theories in the Pokémon Fandom. Did Giovanni commit suicide in HG/SS? Well, maybe.
In the Gen I games (or their remakes), the Player beats Giovanni and the Rockets several times, ending in the Viridian Gym battle (the Sevii Islands' Rockets aren't the real Rockets, they're working without Giovanni, as a branch). He then "ends" Team Rocket, but three years later, in the Gen II games (or their remakes), they're back, like as in the Seviis, as another branch, waiting for Giovanni to come.
The theory starts when the player has a Celebi and takes it to the Ilex Forest Shrine (only in HeartGold/SoulSilver). The player and Ethan/Lyra will time travel three years before. They will watch a fight against Silver and his father, Giovanni. Celebi then transports them to Tohjo Falls, where Giovanni is listening to the Team Rocket calls in a radio.
He would tell you that you remind him of the trainer that defeated him three years before (Red). You will battle him and when you win, he says that the Team Rocket dream was just an illusion. He then leaves the cave, and a weird sound similar to a SPLASH is heard, instead of the normal exiting cave sound. The Rockets then start to ask "Where has Giovanni gone?". Ethan/Lyra says that he/she wished they knew that their leader is not coming back, even though Giovanni did not told anything of that nature. That leads us back to the SPLASH sound, which is probably Giovanni falling from the Waterfall,
Giovanni probably fell down (on purpose, as being defeated twice by two 11-year-olders left no reason for Giovanni to continue living, as history repeats itself) and drown or was hurt by the sharp rocks.
Alternate Theories:
#1 Giovanni used Waterfall and left the cave to live alone in the most remote part of Johto.
Reason to disagree: none of Giovanni's Pokémon knew or could learn Waterfall.
#2 Giovanni flew away with his Honchkrow to a remote area in Johto.
Reason to disagree: Honchkrow did not knew Fly (altough Giovanni could have the HM and teached him after the battle). Even if he did so, there is the SPLASH, which is not a Flying Pokémon sound (altough it could (very hardly) be radio distortions). And even if the SPLASH is radio distortion, Tohjo Falls is a cave with waterfalls in it, very hard to fly out. Last piece of evidence: Ethan/Lyra's speech.
#3 Giovanni teleported.
Reason to disagree: Giovanni is not an Abra, nor has one.
NOTE: If you go to Tohjo Falls in Gold/Silver/Crystal, nothing will be there, even if you have the Celebi. If you go there in HeartGold/SoulSilver: 1) if you don't have a Celebi, you will find a broken radio; 2) if you have a Celebi, but didn't go to the Shrine, only the broken radio will be there.
Theory 2 - Kangaskhan and Cubone are in the same evolutionary line?
Possibly the most well-known theory in the Pokémon Fandom. Is Cubone a baby Kangaskhan? And did the producers decide to create the separate evolutionary line of Cubone?
First of all, let's take a look at the baby Kangaskhan inside the mother Kangaskhan's pouch and a Cubone and the Pokédex entry for Cubone:
(I will post the image later because my PC is memory full (real full, 0 bytes left))
It wears the skull of its dead mother on its head. When it becomes lonesome, it is said to cry loudly.
Cubone is actually the baby Kangaskhan wearing its dead mother skull and one of her bones. This leads us to this scheme:
Cubone = Baby Kangaskhan
For a Cubone to be born, it's mother needs to die. Though when breeding a Kangaskhan, the mother Kangaskhan does not die. So, Mother Kangaskhan = Bisexual Kangaskhan.
Cubone evolves to Marowak. This is only able because of malnutrition or new life style adaptations.
The theory is proved when mixing up the data from Gen I games. If you catch a 'M (she is Missingno's sister) and level it up, it would evolve into a Kangaskhan.
Alternate Theory
The mother Kangaskhan has a baby Kangaskhan.The baby Kangaskhan evolves into a Kangaskhan if it is female and keeps living with Kangaskhan that are still alive.
If it is male, it leaves the Kangaskhan family and steals his mother skull to protect himself and a bone to attack. It becomes a Cubone.
NOTE: Cubone is the saddest Pokémon

About the game:
USA as a world power? In E-Sim it is possible!
In E-Sim we have a huge, living world, which is a mirror copy of the Earth. Well, maybe not completely mirrored, because the balance of power in this virtual world looks a bit different than in real life. In E-Sim, USA does not have to be a world superpower, It can be efficiently managed as a much smaller country that has entrepreneurial citizens that support it's foundation. Everything depends on the players themselves and how they decide to shape the political map of the game.
Work for the good of your country and see it rise to an empire.
Activities in this game are divided into several modules. First is the economy as a citizen in a country of your choice you must work to earn money, which you will get to spend for example, on food or purchase of weapons which are critical for your progress as a fighter. You will work in either private companies which are owned by players or government companies which are owned by the state. After progressing in the game you will finally get the opportunity to set up your own business and hire other players. If it prospers, we can even change it into a joint-stock company and enter the stock market and get even more money in this way.
In E-Sim, international wars are nothing out of the ordinary.
Become an influential politician.
The second module is a politics. Just like in real life politics in E-Sim are an extremely powerful tool that can be used for your own purposes. From time to time there are elections in the game in which you will not only vote, but also have the ability to run for the head of the party you're in. You can also apply for congress, where once elected you will be given the right to vote on laws proposed by your fellow congress members or your president and propose laws yourself. Voting on laws is important for your country as it can shape the lives of those around you. You can also try to become the head of a given party, and even take part in presidential elections and decide on the shape of the foreign policy of a given state (for example, who to declare war on). Career in politics is obviously not easy and in order to succeed in it, you have to have a good plan and compete for the votes of voters.
You can go bankrupt or become a rich man while playing the stock market.
The international war.
The last and probably the most important module is military. In E-Sim, countries are constantly fighting each other for control over territories which in return grant them access to more valuable raw materials. For this purpose, they form alliances, they fight international wars, but they also have to deal with, for example, uprisings in conquered countries or civil wars, which may explode on their territory. You can also take part in these clashes, although you are also given the opportunity to lead a life as a pacifist who focuses on other activities in the game (for example, running a successful newspaper or selling products).
At the auction you can sell or buy your dream inventory.
E-Sim is a unique browser game. It's creators ensured realistic representation of the mechanisms present in the real world and gave all power to the players who shape the image of the virtual Earth according to their own. So come and join them and help your country achieve its full potential.
Invest, produce and sell - be an entrepreneur in E-Sim.
