Pokemon currently lives in a utopia that is only disturbed by a few bad actors that end up almost causing destruction of the world because they are stupid and have poorly thought out plans, the "issues" they claim to exist would make sense in our world but 10 times out of 10 they end up being non-issues that they only claim to be an issue due to their distorted world view
