I have a question. In the Pokemon world, there are no animals, right? All they have is Pokemons. And Pokemons are clearly self-conscious and inteligent creatures, able to comunicate (in their own way, although some can speak as humans). Right? OK. Now, the people in that world, they are either ALL vegetarians... or they do slaughter some Pikachus or Jigglypufs or Bulbasaurs every now and then and eat those! And that's so cruel, because those are conscious beings, like regular people!
