Paper covers up rock.

Rock is extremely claustrophobic.

Paper cover rock. Which causes rock to be unable to see. This makes the rock think it is night time and the rock then goes to sleep.

I believe it harkens back to old judicial proceedings where you could sign a dissenting opinion by placing a piece of paper over a rock. Could be an old wife's tale.

Paper covers rock

This is the lore. It is primitive and may not make sense but it is the lore of the game world.

Feel free to interpret the exact meaning on your own.

If I remember right, paper used to be something else in the original Japanese version of the game, but over time it became paper for some reason.

The oldest version is from China and it was about three animals. Also nobody plays it anymore.

Iirc the Japanese Jan-ken it's "cloth" and not paper.

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]


Doesn't make sense in Pokemon where a leaf cuts through a rock but in real world science it makes sense as plant roots commonly cut rocks into pieces.
