Make them your slaves will you? OH, the pokeball almost always brainwashes the pokemon to be PERFECTLY happy with you once you beat the LIVING DAYLIGHTS out of it and chuck a ball at it. RIIIGHT.

What goes on inside that pokeball? What kind of insane torture to bend them to the trainer's will? I make a movement that we should stop capturing pokemon, until the inner mechanics of the pokeball are discovered.

Erm, I would join you and all, but I would sorta have trouble compleating Pokemon Pearls dex if I cant catch pokemon.

Im sure inside the pokeball it is a utopia for pokemon.

Robot Chicken anyone?

On-topic, the Pokeball doesn't really bend their will. It's just an instinct that if a Pokemon is overpowered, it'll obey whoever overpowered it. And inside the Pokeball, whatever it is, most Pokemon have no problems with it. Except for that ever so arrogant Pikachu.

One theory about Pokemon allowing themselves to be captured is that they want to be stronger and can only be with the help of a human training along with them. Another theory is that there's an unspoken agreement that's deeply routed in history that humans and Pokemon work together and always had, always will.

Obviously, being captured and trained by a human isn't too bad. Pokemon have their powers of fire, electricity, ice, even just the brute strength of Fighting-types and can easily overpower humans. If the Pokemon didn't want to be "under the control" of humans, they could easily stop it.

As for the inside of a Pokeball, I believe that the red beam places the Pokemon in a state of near-unconsciousness, allowing the Pokemon to still have some idea of what's going on, but not affecting its living. I mean, the Pokemon can stay inside the ball for a long time and not have to eat.

Not every Pokemon is happy to be captured. Charizard from the anime, who was happy, but then wasn't comes to mind. I think that there's other Pokemon like that, or wasn't happy at the start. And in the games themselves, you capture the Pokemon, and then you have to work on making them accept you as a trainer by showing that they can trust you in battle, healing them, not abusing them, giving them treats, and so on.

It's specified in D/P that pokemon aid humans because they made a promise that they would. Read your history in the library.

I think that inside a pokeball there is a room with a tv hooked up with a video game system. there's a couch and a kitchen where the pokemon can get food and water and a bathtub to relax in.

... I'm afraid you may be taking Pokemon out of context

I disagree that it's a torturing device.. Lol. I think it'll just be a place of comfort or whatever.

I also have to disagree if it were torturing the Pokemon will be feeling way worse when they are sent out of their Pokeballs? Also what happened in Robot Chicken XDD
