>>38339839They are pokemon trainers, not pokemon masters or poachers.
If there's not trust or affection, then the whole authority of the trainer depends on a pokeball, something fragile and easy to snatch.
Bu without that device to keep the unruly at bay, what's holding up a pokemon from doing anything nasty on their trainer? Nothing at all, they can even get away with it by making their trainer unable to remember they took advantage of him in the first place or keep him in a weakened state completely at their mercy like drugged with pheromones, have their mind break apart into a plaything or simple being physically overpowered by them.
If you don't get along with your godzilla pet and the only thing you have to control it is a leash, then you better pray when your wonderful needy pal wants to have you.
At least, it would be less painful if you surrenders inmediately and let them have what they want.
