>>44725384>A child is a child regardless of what world it's in. Wrong. It's not a world, it's a collection of 1s and 0s being processed onto screen.
Games aren't a world, characters aren't people.
>It's not an animal like the ones in our in our worldWrong again. They are analogous to the species that fill ecological niches in reality. Lore says pokemon prey on each other. They are just super powered animals
>They're human, just like here.Not really. Real people can't take a blast of fire to the face and be fine. Real people can't be flung out of a balloon from several hundred feet up and be no worse for the wear next episode. Children aren't sent alone into the wilderness with only their pets. Children can't gamble. There are others. To apply our morals and understanding of reality literally to fiction is kinda silly. Yes, allegory exists, animal farm is my favorite book after all, but you suspend your disbelief. A pig can't really become an authoritarian dictator, but things work differently for the sake of story. It seems like your contention is that people can't tell fantasy from reality. As someone who was yound and stupid about a decade ago, I thought that I'd be able to safely browse the deep web. Well, I did, but the links are gibberish. I ended up seeing real cp. I never went on the dark web again. It was way more unsettling than ANY drawing, no matter how obscene, could ever be.
