>>35861191>Why do criminal organizations not just physically harm people themselves instead of ONLY engaging and inevitably losing in Pokemon battles? They're bad guys; they don't need to follow rules.At least that one has been done in Colosseum/Gale of Darkness (Shadow Makuhita attacks you in Colosseum, and Cipher kidnaps a professor in Gale of Darkness) and somewhat in BW2 (Ghetsis almost kills you).
>>35862680There's also others like Claydol
>Claydol are said to be dolls of mud made by primitive humans and brought to life by exposure to a mysterious ray. This Pokémon moves about while levitating.Trubbish/Garbodor
>The combination of garbage bags and industrial waste caused the chemical reaction that created this Pokémon.Golurk
>Golurk were created to protect people and Pokémon. They run on a mysterious energy.And others I'm likely missing. You shouldn't look too deep though, as in the same world of Pokemon exists actual animals (Indian Elephants) as well as Guyanna, America, etc.
