it's STARTERS not FIRST PARTNERS
and Pokemon DO NOT shrink!!! All instances of Pokemon shown shrinking, like this Pawmi, is just engine limitations/stylistic choice. Pokemon DO NOT shrink!!!!!!!!!

Pawmi is NOT using minimize, they just needed a way to spawn him without just making him pop into existence. Shrinking is NOT REAL and any examples of shrinking like this or fainting are LIMITATIONS/SHORTCUTS gamefreak uses

“Starter” has been a term since very early on. It’s the same as “Shiny pokemon” which GF called “Shining pokemon” but ended up changing to the fan term.
This “first partner” term is them not taking the fan term.

The shrinking thing is beyond retarded, probably the most retarded thing they've decided to put out there, but it's canon I guess so oh well.

So how do Pokemon stuck in the PC not starve to death? I assumed that Pokeballs just turned them into data that doesn’t undergo physical changes, which makes abandoning them only slightly less cruel. But if they still physically exist, just stuck in a dark ball for all eternity, then that shit is nightmare fuel

So what about Kalos, where you get two sets of starters? You can’t have TWO “first partners”. Is the Kanto starter your “second partner”, even though you’ve probably caught more Pokemon between him and the Kalos starter?

It's explicitly stated that pokemon instinctively curl up and shrink down when they're injured, and the pokeball just keeps them in that state. There's no technology involved

According to the anime they're not actually in the PC, but instead in an open care facility that's like a giant ranch where they can roam around. PLA halfway confirms that to be canon.

Lanette’s research notes in gen 3 says that she added wallpapers and customizable box names to please the Pokemon stored in them. This wouldn’t make any sense if they weren’t stored digitally.
Also the anime showed that they do digitize the Pokemon when sending them from great distances. The Porygon episode went into more depth on it where Ash, his friends, and TR were digitized.

Shrinking was reconfirmed in Diamond and Pearl (though the translation team screwed that one up) and again more recently in Legends Arceus.

It does. When they get knocked out, they instinctively shrink and the trainer loses track of them. When you throw a Poké Ball at a Pokémon that hasn't fainted but is weakened, it instinctively crawls inside for safety. That's why it's more likely to work the lower the HP.

So it can teleport anything. Also, Pokeballs don't teleport Pokemon.
>Pokemon are stores in the PC
>the same PC can already digitize items
>Technology is incredible! You can now store and recall items and Pokemon as data via PC!
The quote from Gen 1 implies that Pokemon and items are not made into data until the PC does so.
>pokemon centers use TECHNOLOGY/LIGHT to heal Pokemon through their Pokeball
How does it do that if the Pokemon is data?

All you're proving with that crack is you only interacted with the tv show. The sprites/models all shrink when withdrawn or a catch is attempted in the games, the manga outright shows shrunken pokémon chilling in their pokéballs and even the TV show adheres to that eventuality, even though they send a beam out to recall shit.

The Kanto statrter is your second first partner Pokemon, just like in Yellow Pikachu is your first partner Pokemon and you find the other 3 first partner Pokemon throughout your playthrough, allowing you have 4 first partner Pokemon on your team, the only game where you can do so without trading.

Poké Balls are nearly always the type of ball used in the anime including in that image. Pokémon experience a different environment for different types of balls. So a Poké Ball is a simple ball room like that image. Whereas a Luxury Ball is more fancy like what >>55610789 shows.
