>>33946928No biggie. Besides, I called the headcanon autistic, myself. It *did* start as a shallow justification for vore before I realized it can be used to justify dumb shit like
>"oh so Cut can slice trees made of wood in half but doesn't do lasting damage to a Pokemon">"realistically Ash and Team Rocket should've died from all the lightning he's taken to the face"It also helps that it doesn't make things completely safe - a dangerous Flamethrower will still fuck a Trainer up even if it's from their own Charizard, a Confused Pokemon is incredibly risky to stay around, etc.
But yeah, I blame and credit /tg/ for giving me a compulsion to actually think through my fetish excuses, so rather than "vore is fine because setting magic" it's "vore is fine because Pokemon (through setting magic) aren't always as lethal as their Pokedex entries, which causes and explains lots of things."
