Pokemon seems awful
Ever present terrorism, most towns don’t have food
Animal attacks are more common and dangerous
If you take them at face value and not as a gamified abstraction, sure. "Pallet Town" having three buildings is unlivable but it isn't shown that way in non-game media.
The organized crime is rough but that usually gets sorted out by a child at some point so just keep your head down.
These terrorist organizations are at least nice enough to let you attempt to capture a relatively weak pikachu for over a decade. My boss gets mad if I go over my 15 minute coffee break.
Not up to date on pokemon lore by a longshot but iirc Jessey and James are actually just nice people who really like pokemon and do their jobs badly on purpose.
No one said you couldn't join them
I guess I hate ugly people enough to join Flare
That doesn't sound that bad
The anime version seemed pretty nice. I actually got pretty depressed for a few days when I was a kid and realized I would never live in that world.
