Arthur Conan Doyle really said "This is my OC Sherlock. He spends his time going on walks around london taking soil samples so that when a criminal leaves behind a footprint he can tell you what street the dirt came from. He refuses to learn how the solar system works because it might overshadow his knowledge of obscure poisons. He has a gun. He doesn't even need the gun to kick your ass but he has it anyway. He plays the violin. Everyone who knows him thinks he's the coolest person in England and they're absolutely right. When he doesn't have a mystery to solve he gets so bored that he does coke about it."

"Nobody writes of Holmes and Watson without love." - John le Carré 

My take on the Sherlock Holmes books

Doylist explanation: They keep making new electric mouse pokemon because they're frantically trying to recreate the success of Pikachu. Or at least because it's tradition at this point.

Watsonian explanation: A major predator of rodents is birds of prey. A mouse that can deliver electric shocks to flying-types has a much higher chance of living to produce more offspring. Thus, convergent evolution fills this niche in every region. "Pikachu" is just the pokemon universe equivalent of "crab".

What I imagine in my little brain everytime Holmes asks Watson to bring his revolver with him during a case.

The one unifying factor of all Sherlock Holmes adaptations is that absolutely no one has read his monograph on cigars and cigar ash
