>And many animals in the real world just aren't capable of being domesticated.Due to lifespan issues, but all it takes is one Pokemon with potential access to flamethrower having a short enough lifespan and the right temperament...
>And in addition, if Pokemon have more uses than just meat, it wouldn't make much sense to just harvest Pokemon meat in most cases.If your concerns are simply obtaining a consistent source of food, you may not have much ability to use them for more than that.
