Do you view Pokemon in the same vein as animals or 'magical' creatures/monsters?

even though some of them are putrid flowers and washing machines, they're still basically the animal equivalents of the Pokemon world

And yeah, as much as Pokemon tries to not be overt about it, it really is just magic. They never SAY it, but we all know it's essentially magic.

In the Jewel of Life, both Arceus and the ancient people of Michina Town refer to Pokemon as magical creatures.

This. At one point in the ancient past, there were magical creatures, probably alongside regular ones. Obviously the magical ones won out, and the normal ones died out, hence why there aren’t any in the modern pokéworld

If game freak ever tried to do some serious world building, they’d probably have to be magical creatures. They stay away from it because creating such a fleshed out world would be hard and prolly pretty confusing for very little kids (the only demographic GF cares about).

They mention bacteria in Pokédex entries, unless those are microscopic Pokémon as well, there are other life forms (not including humans).

I hate the idea of pokemon being treated like animals. They've been shown to be like sapient human intellect leveled creatures. Like if a fucking random ass alley cat can learn to talk as well as a human these creatures cant be stupid, it's not like this is the only example either. Pokemon are too smart to be just animals, Ill even say many pokemon are smart enough to even train REAL dogs fo example in fact.

They are magical creatures but are also that world's equivalent of non-human animals (at least from gen 3 onward; in gen 1 the intent was that real animals still exist).

bulbashit will always be a frog no matter how hard you screech otherwise, zoomer. KANTOOOOO pokemon aren't any more "ambiguous" on average than the rest of the franchise.

All this does is highlight that there is nothing saurian about it beyond the localization.

This is true. But it's a sliding scale. All Pokémon understand human speech. Some can learn it. And some can speak telepathically so it's automatically in your native language. It's like if you used a dolphin as the baseline and increase from there. Even the rocks can talk and understand human speech. So that's the lowest, some are well past human intellect. I'd say all Psychic types are by default.

Stay mad. Both terms have their uses. Gen Z sucks and we all know it.

Personally I kinda got the impression that humans could sorta achieve a similar level to pokemon like with some really strong fighters or psychics in some instances like with mental skill and power. Like some psychic trainers sorta always to me felt like they went so beyond normal limits that they sorta were on a similar level in some regard. Like they have to be to be able to turn people's souls into dolls like with anime Sabrina and to hold pokeballs telepathically with some of the npc trainers.It wouldn't surprise me if that were the case in some regards.
