i never thought about it but that point about the police makes a lot of sense, actually it makes so much sense it probably extends to most trainers. i mean think about how easy it'd be to chill in some dark corner of a route, beat someone's pokemon up, and then either
a) take advantage of them when they can't use their pokemon to save them
b) offer to help their pokemon for a "fee"
c) take them to a pokemon center and manipulate them into thinking you're a good guy for the long haul rape
forget the pedo shit, this would work with probably next to every trainer. think about it, they've been with pokemon their whole lives. there's no way most of them know self-defense so A is easy and they're gonna have such a connection to their pokemon that B would be seen as worth it, PLUS the pokemon world is so full of genuinely nice guys just willing to hand you free shit or help you out, they'd be easy to manipulate so C would work just as well.
it's actually fucking wild when you think about it. so many cute girls would just be ripe for the raping.
