>>44881944Pokemon aren't slaves silly, they are free to do whatever they want, at least thats what they tell us. The problem is really in the way media portraits them, they don't seem to do much besides stick their trainers and overall be treated as friends and sometimes family by their trainers, but we don't usually see them do their own thing away from them. Unless you count the Pikachu Specials, the only time we really see anything like that is with Meowth. I can't recall the last time the game did anything like those.
