This is a good thing however because then you grow stronger together and go on adventures and all that whimsical stuff. Pecha does the exact same thing with a chain instead of a pokeball, and suddenly he's evil and toxic and brainwashing. Hypocrites. There's nothing natural about a Garchomp eating pokebeans out of your hand after it tried to rip your throat out just 10 seconds ago.
