>>11941096Your whole argument reeks of self righteousness and pretentiousness.
A lot of Pokemon do have intelligence higher than any human, but doesn't that just sound odd? How can a Pokemon who is soo much smarter than us be controlled? How can a Pokemon who can cause earthquakes bend to our will?
I feel like you're looking at Pokemon as if they're victims. You take pity on them. The truth is, to me Pokemon know what they're doing. I think that every order they commit, is consensual. The ideology behind Pokemon is different from that of regular humans. You think that we own them, but I feel that the truth of the matter is that we don't own them, we're partners with them. Even in crime organizations, they're partners with their Pokemon. The Pokemon understand that if they are weak, they are going to get left behind.
In a lot of the games, anime and manga, (not that the last two count) the fact that Pokemon are owned has never been an issue. The issue has been with them being mistreated. I believe that Pokemon have choices, and their choice is to their masters. I feel like they live like a samurai would.
>My life is simple, my food is plain, and my quarters are uncluttered. In all things, I have sought clarity. I face the troubles and problems of life and death willingly. Virtue, integrity and courage are my priorities. I can be approached, but never pushed; befriended but never coerced; killed but never shamed.>Yi SunshinPokemon have a loyalty to their masters. Masters are supposed to be caring and loving. This is how slavery originally was intended to be. Like a lot of things though, it got muddle and ruined and twisted into what we have today.
Finally, I think that people like N are on a crusade to help Pokemon who don't need help. Pokemon can take care of themselves. Pokemon can break the bonds humans have made with them. Pokemon just don't want to. Pokemon don't need help. Pokemon don't need a crusader. Pokemon don't need N.
