Pokemon is unrealistic to even the practical parts of reality.

[Aldurin]

This is to break the discussion from the image thread about how pokemon is unrealistic.

Main focus point at the moment: National Security. Already discussed that we rely on pre-teens to stop criminal organizations while the 2 policemen in each region prance around with their level 10-25 growlithes.

Possible new topics:
Why kids doing pokemon battles/contests make national news. I swear that if Johto and Kanto declared war on each other you wouldn't find out if the trainer talked to all of the reporters.

Pokemon centers and marts are everywhere, but there might be like one actual hospital and grocery store total over the 4 generations.

You can never find a bathroom, and pokemon never poop despite the fact that you can buy it for your berry patches.

Pokemon can be used as a threat for violence, but can never actually attack people.

There are no dead people in the caves, you'd figure that some would get lost and get eaten by a butterfree or something.

Continue our rant.
