Are Deoxys and starmie related?
Let's start with their origins first. Deoxys is said to be a virus that was found in a meteorite from space. It underwent mutations when it came to earth.
Starmie is also said to be from space. I quote from the pokedex: Because of its body, the locals suspect that it is an alien creature.
Notice the crystal/gem in the center. This crystal is most likely important and might be needed or the same thing, based on the crystals positioning.
Another pokedex entry also states that Starmie release radio waves into space at night, you know... Like how in Destiny Deoxys, the 2 Deoxys communicate with the auroras from there crystals.
My theory is that the crystal is the virus both Deoxys and Starmie originated from. Meteorites containing the virus landed on earth from a distant plant, and the Pokemon mutated under different conditions.
Deoxys mutated in space, which is with his body's is like that. I think that he mutated to incorporate the meteorite into part of its body. Very, very, very few virus can do this, and that is why Deoxys is so rare.
Starmie however, mutated in earth. When landing on earth, the virus were able to make their way to water, and mutated to live in water. Since the earth is like... mostly water, this could be a possible theory.
Overall, this a very convincing and might turn out to be true. But as always, this remains a theory until Nintendo confirms it. Thanks for reading!
