This quote is from one of the books in the Canalave library:
So it has been referenced at least once that humans do in fact eat Pokemon (fish Pokemon at least), and I can't say as I'm really surprised. There still seems to be a lot of debate on whether real animals exist in the Pokemon world or not, as the only time I can recall seeing them is very early on in the anime. So if in fact it is only Pokemon and humans coexisting, the only real choice for meat would be the Pokemon themselves (with some obviously being more edible than others).
Yeah, in the beginning we didn't have that many species, so for the world to make sense there had to be some animals. But nowadays with 600+ pokémon, it's certainly different. I'm warming up to the idea of a world with only people and pokémon. Even though it can be argued that lifeforms such as bacteria, archaea and fungi still exist as well. Could be a pretty broken world otherwise.
slowpoke tail is a delicacy
magickrap only useful for food
Magicrap <- haha
That picture is almost obscene for pokémon lovers.
