>pigs are too busy stalking rural roads to “battle” lonely minors

Why is every game like this?

My headcanon is that the "evil teams" are a LARP as part of the League challenge.

This is the stupidest fucking question. It's the same reason the police are useless in any other series; because otherwise, the hero wouldn't need to exist.

Gen 3 onward pretty much destroys this headcanon, since we see Groudon and Kyogre drying up/flooding the entire planet

Then we see Dialga and Palkia create a new galaxy right before our very eyes

>police are useless
If the guards in Skyrim can kill dragons on their own, a cop in the Pokémon world can easily beat some punk with a level 8 ratatata, and group with other cops to storm a building that has big neon signs saying “EVIL TEAM SECRET LAIR” pointing at it.

And if they did that, the hero wouldn't need to exist, so they don't

It would take literally 10 seconds to have a random NPC mention that team rocket paid off the police or whatever

I was just thinking about this today as I was doing the SwSh postgame, how many problems would we solve if we just used Pokemon to kill villain team grunts/their leader? Pokemon are certainly capable of killing a human being. I could easily solve the Dynamax problem if I just had my Tyranitar bite the heads off Swordward and Shieldbert or whatever their names are.

They always give some drawn out speech after we've beaten them and all their Pokemon are out of commission. They're in a perfectly vulnerable state where I could have them electrocuted, drowned, poisoned, crushed, burned alive, frozen, hacked apart, or stabbed to death by any of my Pokemon.

Why don't we start killing people with Pokemon?

When the Plasma grunts in BW disappeared after you beat them, I always liked to think you had your Pokemon kill them.
