They're sentient, empathetic and dreaming beings which hardly differ from humans in any way sans lingual, morphological and capable, which is taken a few steps further by those which can miraculously speak. And let's be real here, if there was ever a scenario of one or the other leading some global revolt, it'd be some maniac who managed to either capture or entrance a super-ancient legendary. Plus, as we know these two races once shared far more personal, intimate relationships without the advent of technology that'd significantly aid such a process like Pokeballs, this just provides even fewer reasons as to why they in particular would be aggressors, since humans are
debateably more civil creatures in modern times. Bloody historical instances aside, since that's universal among us even today.
Pokemon blur an ideal line between some of the highest and lowest examples of life, and for that reason, they can appreciate life as a balance. Especially since man evolved alongside them.
