Rowling said wizards shit their pants. You think her being the author automatically means it's good that she said that? Plus, Tajiri was nuts, he said in his comic that he imagined Pokemon battles being like people inciting their pet dogs to bite each other. So according to you, Pokemon should be like scared dogs who are made to bite one another and don't understand why they're fighting, just because that's what Tajiri said? At least in the actual canon, it's more like friendly competition, like a safer magical version of MMA.
The best Pokemon moments are the ones where they're sapient and emotional, NOT when they're vapid marketability side critters like you want them to be. You just want the, to be as shallow and soulless as possible because you hate them. If CUNTjiri or anyone else in the Pokemon corporate hierarchy says that's what Pokemon should be, it's wrong of them to say that.
