Pokemon are basically wild animals so this is pretty much true

they don't seem to have a moral compass at all
>>
>>25625140
I can only assume that IQ tests are based entirely on spoons in the Pokemon universe.

For a more serious answer, some Pokemon likely have the capacity for moral judgement and as such could theoretically be evil. But even those are not predisposed to it.

I was being a bit silly and hyperbolic, but I do think people tend to present most Pokemon as being too smart. Certainly there are exceptions, but in the games, like the interactions with following Pokemon in HGSS, Pokemon act more like animals than people.

If you google "Evil Fox Pokemon" the first thing you'll get is Zoroark. They changed his thing to "Tricky Fox" in the US but in Japanese the Pokedex calls him an "Evil Fox".
There's no point in me trying to prove to you that pokemon can be evil because you'll just say it's not official, no matter what it is. Even though there were evil Pokemon in Mystery Dungeon.

>>25625234
Leave! I don't care about fanon information.

>>25625239
No Pokémon is officially confirm to be truly evil. Mew is called the new Species Pokémon but is it's Species new?
No. Because, Mew is the Ancestor of All Pokémon!!!
>>

Well, you aren't getting anywhere with your so called canon because you can't even decide what that is, and you never will because it's all inconsistent.

>>25625264
I see, someone getting mad, cause they provide no evidence that Pokémon can be evil in the core-series of Pokémon.
>>
>>25625255
No pokemon is officially confirmed to be good either. Why do you assume that pokemon are inherently good? How do you know they even follow the same moral compass as us?

>Mew is called the new Species Pokémon but is it's Species new?
It's called the New Species because it was a newly discovered species. Not that it was newly formed.

You type very pompously. Do you have Aspergers or is English not your first language?
>>
>>25625277
It's not inclusive enough to qualify as an encyclopedia, and I doubt it would even qualify as a dictionary because it keeps changing the definition.

I've been waiting for the first true evil Pokémon to be confirm. Provide that Pokémon exist now.

>>25625319
Sure, wynnaut?
>>
>>25625319
Actually, It was discover years ago before the settling of 1st generation of Pokémon.
>>
>>25625319
Sure. I could believe that within the Pokemon world, Mew is one of the most recently discovered Pokemon.

Or are you seriously trying to tell me that there were six inhabited regions within close distance from Kanto, and nobody bothered to walk into a patch of grass?

>>25625331
Only if you can provide evidence that pokemon can be good. Because I've been waiting for the first true good Pokemon to be confirmed myself. But the only instances I've seen were of people forcing their pokemon to be good, and in Mystery Dungeon which doesn't count.
>>
>>25625345
Still more time than what can be considered new.

>>25625356

No you aren't.

All you've been doing is responding to all of my points with vapid nothings. You're just going "Pokemon aren't evil because they aren't".

I've given you examples of pokemon being evil in the form of the villains in Mystery Dungeon, but apparently that doesn't count. I've shown you examples of Pokemon harming humans and Pokemon alike, but that doesn't count. Meanwhile if a Human hunts a pokemon for food, the humans are the bad ones.

If you aren't a troll or a foreigner, you're a sufferer of Aspergers and the contrary facts are negatively stimming you.
>>
>>25625535
Mystery Dungeon is not part of the core-series of Pokémon.
>>
>>25625558
And Pokemon is not Capsule Monsters, or any monster catching game before it.
>>
>>25625558
Just because you don't like it doesn't mean it doesn't count.
It's part of the franchise. There is no "core-series" of Pokemon. You just like the versions more so you think that's the objective standard. But it's not.
>>
>>25625574
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hmzDL1l3Fag

Every game in that video is part of the core-series of Pokémon.
>>
>>25625574
Do most people actually think of the mystery dungeon games as canon? They are clearly in a parallel world of some sort.

Imagine Red ending up on an island society of Pokemon where all of them talk and live happy little lives with houses and everything.

It doesn't matter, whether the premise of this board is solely to shitpost, or there's supposed to be discussion going on, the result is the same. I did my job by disagreeing with you and also stating pokemon is not limited to the games. If you actually wanted to have discussion, then you wouldn't be limited to the games, would you?

>>
>>25625622
You read didn't the Sinnoh region myths, didn't you?
>>
>>25625641
No. Because, they're all different canons (parallel universes).
>>
>>25625670
And why exactly do the others ignore the main series, then? If the games don't matter to them, then they don't matter at all.
>>
>>25625681
I don't know and I don't care.
>>
Why does only the core series count? It seems like every discussion on this board is a matter of constantly moving goalposts. I've seen people insist that gameplay isn't canon, only the Pokedex, and others insist the Pokedex isn't canon, and Pokemon are only capable of what they accomplish in the game itself. Can't we have a conversation along the lines of "Well, Pokemon are not evil in [one part of the franchise] but they are capable of evil in [this part of the franchise]"?
>>
>>25626205
Because the core series is pokemon. That's what it is. Everything else is just spin offs.

I don't want to have to explain why Trozei doesn't fit into the canon when people start telling me that Pokemon can survive decapitation.
>>
>>25626432
If nothing else has to follow the games, then I won't either.
>>
>>25626432

>Because the core series is pokemon.

It's all Pokemon. There are multiple canons.

1. These people have to insist on their way.

2. It's incredibly vague no matter what. The games have contradictory information, the anime is contradictory. The spinoffs are the only thing in which I'm certain for all of them that have that sort of thing that pokemon can be evil. I have no knowledge of the manga, someone else will have to verify that.
