>>39467576Get rid of the cursing ability, have them only have normal average pokemon lifespan of 20-40 years.
If they keep all that supernatural stuff though, have people actually be afraid of them like certain ghost pokemon. Kitsunes aren't supposed to cute an lovable, they are basically demons, vampires in our culture even the good ones will always lead you to an ill fate. People shouldn't be g'awwwing over a Ninetails, they should scatter like somebody farted when a trainer lets one out.
