Pokemasta, you make a good point. Pokemon obey or disobey as they choose, none of them are slaves. In that sense, the term 'HM slave' simply does not apply.
But when it is seen that 'HM slave' is a label of inferiority, it makes perfect sense. The slaves are not as valuable as the other team members. That's why I created this thread - I used the term myself many times before I became aware of the mental gymnastics, so to speak.
