Given that whenever an item is used, it is always used before any pokémon move, regardless of speed, does that mean humans are the creatures with the highest base speed stat in the Pokémon universe?
Also, what was the deal with this guy? Was he a concept that never really went anywhere?

Clearly a team rocket member
No, because usually you need to tell the pokemon to use the move, then the one that reacts to the command first goes first. Since you don't need to command yourself to use an item, you just do it, you can skip that step.

But that happens even in battles against wild pokemon. Hell, you can even throw a pokeball at those pokemon who flee in the first turn.

What are you talking about? Professor Oak is literally one of the first characters you meet
>>25603534
That's just professor oak silly
>>25603587

Gameplay mechanics like stats, levels, etc. aren't meant to be taken literally, it's just an abstraction. Why would the Champion (the strongest trainer in the region) only have Pokemon that are barely over half the maximum possible level?

He was in the Manga for like 2 pages

I don't think OP was meant to be taken literally
Speed is such a grey area that it's bets not to think about it. Because if you do, you'll realize that, by logic, in the same span of time trainers with super fast Pokémon should be able to perform more turns in a battle against a very slow mon. And yet, both sides get the same number of turns regardless of speed.

Nah you take it in turns, that's a given it's like a gentlemans agreement thing, but speed determines who goes first
