>>56481535>assuming humans can take a few attacks from an average pokemon without getting fucked up (anime/game rules rather than grimderp rules)That's why anime/game rules were mentioned, a lot of fics like to ignore them for "muh dangerous beasts that'll kill everyone" even though you have people like Oak and Alder regularly tanking attacks just fine. If a fic is going to have underground battles that explicitly hide from the league, chances are they'll have maiming and other edgy shit in them that would cause potential problems.
