Gotta Catch 'em All


Recently I've been playing a lot of pokemon on an emulator on my computer. While I've been seriously kicking ass with my snorlax and company, I have also turned my attention to the "Pokemon World" or whatever its called. Screw 1984, this is a real Utopian society. Let me explain:

1. There's no cars or automobiles or internal combustion motors (except for bikers which have motorcycles in the picture but say they're on bicycles). Global warming would so not be an issue if I could just hope on my pigeotto and fly somewhere.

2. Free pokecenters/ridiculous technology. You can store animal things in tiny balls, yet everyone rides bikes? Yeah ok.

3. The only crime is rather silly. Team rocket repeatedly challenges you to poke-battles, seeming to forget that they could forcibly pick you up and throw you somewhere. 

In conclusion, the world would be a better place if there were pokemon, but you already knew that didn't you?

But if pokemon were suddenly introduced into our society, they would be seen as alien creatures not worthy of respect, and would likely be used for terrible deeds by fanatics who would train them to be killing machines.
