>>40312305Marketing =/= lore. The line "pokemon don't die" in the context of a styles rule means "do not depict a pokemon being killed." just like the reproduction section essentially states not to depict pokemon mating. Both happen, but are never shown to the audience.
Cubone's very premise is that it's an orphan because its mother died. Team Rocket even murdered killed the Marowak that we battle as a ghost.
Gengar, Cofagrigus, and Trevenant are all dead people. You're a moron if you're going to claim that there's no death in Pokemon.
