>>39547608>A juvenile who commits a crime is still arrested, its the courts which decide whether that juvenile is to be culpable for their actions and treated as an adult or not.To clarify I'm saying they aren't tried as an adult, they are given a hearing with determines whether the child is actually culpable, that they understood what they were doing and the consequences of what they were doing. You can't do that with a pokemon as A) They can't talk and those that do are unreliable/hostile like Meowith or imagine if they put Mewtwo on trial for crimes against humanity would you trust anything he said? B) Pokemon are not considered people that is demonstrated in the games, anime, movies, and manga C)Equivocating pokemon with a person under law would make millions of legal experts all cry out in terror of arguing before being silenced by their heads exploding. Its shown they hold pokemon to a different standard, they are no equivocal
A pokemon wouldn't even be held to the standard of a child, they are human.
