Gen 1 fans of Pokémon, especially those who played Red and Blue versions, can now find a bit more peace regarding the sorrowful character of Cubone. For years, it was known that Cubone never removes its skull helmet due to which nobody has ever seen its real face. However, recent discoveries have proven this notion wrong.

Key Points:

• Discovery in Picture Book: A 90s coloring book titled Pokémon Picture Diary: Let's Go With Pikachu! by Keiko Fukuyama features a page showing Cubone playing a Pokémon flute without its skull helmet. This indicates that at some point, Cubone was able to take off the skull.
• Additional Evidence: There are also various products released over the years displaying Cubone’s face when its skull is not on, including a Pokémon card and a plush toy where users can unstitch the skull for it to be revealed.

Do you believe that Pokémon’s creators intentionally included these revelations in their products to subtly provide emotional closure or was it merely coincidental? How do you feel about the revelation of Cubone's face being out there for all to see, given its symbolic representation as a motherless Pokémon?
