Yeah, the Pokemon series is really dysfunctional if you think about it for 5 seconds.  You have a world where basically all the work is done by unpaid Quasi-Sentient creatures, and yet in one of the games (Black/White) you're actually given an opportunity to liberate these de-facto slaves, but are forced to decide not to.  Why?  Because of some kind of bond between people and Pokemon.

Add in the fact that some of those "quasi-sentients"  are several times more intelligent than human beings...

Of course a 10 year old can beat super criminal organizations that are all powerful and rich!

It's a game designed to appeal to the ego of a kid and perpetuate the trope that adults are useless.

If you throw in Pokemon to another universe that is grimdark or gritty, you'd see less kids running around because they're dead.
Will add later

Some of my family was apparently in Lincoln today for some reason, and was going to drive back to Omaha in the snow we've been having (not a lot of snow, but still snow) on the I-80 and asked what the road conditions were.  First response:

"Horrible.  Yetis are flipping over cars and tearing them open to eat the tender humans inside.  Never before have I seen such carnage."

I go a good laugh out of a comment on an advice kind of column.  The subject replied to was about a person who has a cake business and would normally have done one for her nephew, but said nephew is having a hunting themed wedding and she's an aminal rights activist.

 Dobby
Re the wedding hunting issues: As a dog I eat meat. Hunting is how humans have gotten fresh meat for one hundred thousand years. Helping humans get meat has been the goal of every dog for fifty thousand years. Maintaining a tradition that was an important part of life for most of us up until the last few hundred years is not evil. Wanton slaughter is not okay regardless of species, including other humans, but please don't deny me bacon, hamburger or duck breast jerky! And a cake not made with love tastes stale, at least to dogs.

Oh my god at the last one... I have to wonder if that's serious or just a troll.  :lmao
