The foundation of our concept of marriage is two consenting adults coming together in a union to promote mental, physical, and emotional health. This necessitates that both partners be fully conscious of the consequences of their actions, which in turn needs both to be sapient.
If Pokemon are capable of (and legally recognized to possess) sapience, they also have free will, especially in choice of marriage partner. Given that arrangement, it cannot be argued that you, faggot, would be no more likely to land a Pokemon wife than a human one
