Do Pokémon have morality? Does morality differ between different types or groups of Pokémon? What would a Pokémon consider evil? Would Pokémon argue over what could be considered evil? Does Pokémon morality (if it exists) even have a concept of evil?

That card was gay. I remember trading it and the other two Wicked cards for a Dreamcast VMU.

Pokemon morality probably differs, but I think Pokemon in general have morality, and shit.

Maybe in the world of the anime.
However, in the world of the game, the Origins movie, and Generations, Pokemon are really depictied more like extremely powerful, magic animals. They have no more morality than a cat or dog does in our world.

Some Pokemon like the Lake Trio and Swords of Justice might have a sense of right or wrong, but I think that such a quality is extremely rare—even among legendary and mythical Pokemon

>different pokemon have different levels and expressions of intelligence (5000 IQ or whatever Alakazam vs. braindead Magikarp vs. alien intelligence Ditto/Porygon/Starmie/ vs. probably very intelligent but with animalistic traits Ninetales)
>different pokemon have different and less/more complex sociological structures (ritual/religious bonding Clefairy vs. hive structure Combee vs. never sees the sunlight, much less interacts with others Dunsparce vs. does it even know where or who it is Magikarp)

I'd guess it would differ from species to species, with more conventionally humanlike and more intelligent species having greater variation between individuals, with exceptions. Pokemon narratives are almost always told from the point of view of humans, so one can imagine that there's a lot going on behind the scenes that's excluded by the series's fixation on pokemon pet/battle/whatever culture.
