>>43553346In my opinion, Pokephilia is touchy legal wise (There is no detail on this in any media AFAIK) and culturally/socially taboo dependant on the Pokemon Universe in question.
>Anime Universe: Inconsistent. Pokemon display high levels of intelligence at some points but lower at other points. All pokemon have the capability to speak and display high levels of human intelligence and sapience considering Team Rockets Meowth exists. So in this universe, maybe it might be okay depending on how human the pokemon looks and if it can communicate perfectly with their partner.>Main Series Games: No. Pokemon in these games are more primal and animalistic, they don't talk or show higher levels of thinking barring legendary pokemon.>Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Universe: Yes. The Pokemon in this world display human-level intelligence at every turn, some of them are even humans. I assume its rare in this world, but a Pokemon x Human relationship would not surprise me.
