First of all I know that there are some threads about this Topic.
Still there is no real answer what the main meat source around is.
And before that I asked myself what makes a normal typed pokemon "normal"?
Is it just because it hasnt got the same characteristic as the other Types?
I had a Persian with watergun and Thunderbolt in Gen1, so that couldnt be it
The effect of normal types could be argued but not the type of pokemon itself.
It even got more confusing when we had Girafarig, bibarel, deerling and sawsbuck.
You probably ask right now: "What does that have to do with eating Meat?"
The reason I want to point this out is that I noticed that many Normal types have edible Real world counterparts
(Tauros, Miltank, Pidove and buneary for those who like wild meat. And dont get me started on countries that eat dog or cat meat)
So something started in my mind and I thought:
Generally you can eat anything right? But can you truly eat your pet? Your Partner in Fighting?
The answer is yes, but there might be a situation we didnt consider.
The Pokemonworld is post-apocalyptic.
Yes you read right.
I am claiming that the world our heroes and PCs live in is after a great destruction, caused perhaps by the creation of Arceus and other Legendary Pokemon which where used in an all out war.
All normal animals died and Humanity was thrown back to the stone age.
No animal was öleft and myths about pokemon creating lands, filling the sea and so on were born.
It isnt far fetched to think that for a certain time some pokemon were hunted down so that we can be fed (which might have spawned tradition to be thankful for eaten pokemon)
2000 years or more might have passed since then and the civilisation has recovered.
But...what if genetical research was saved up? What if the knowledge was recovered from millenia?
Well honestly its a hypothetical question since every Gen I and Gen V player knows that those did spawn the cration of quite a few pokemon *cough*Mewtwo*cough*
What I wanna focus on is that there might be facilities that actually concentrate on CREATING our meat through genetical researches. Maybe somewhere hidden inside a mountain Mr. Pokemon checked if the eggs actually contained chicken and suddenly he found a pokemon egg (honestly why didnt anyone question the knowledge about eggs if there arent any animals that could lay them?
(How would you know an egg is an egg, if you never heard of a thing like that? Or actually ever seen one?)
My theory is that Genetical creation of artificial Real life animals that have no intelligence are used for food production, perhaps breeded on farms in more friendly enviroments. Pokemon however have taken over 99% of their habitats leaving only domestic animals in secure facilities.
But Normal-pokemons are actually failure of those, creations turning out to become pokemon with distinctive intelligence. But certain pokemon like miltank have still retained their distinctivbe features to supply us with food. Milk, eggs (not fertilized) and fruits.
So in my conclusion:
People and certain Carnivore/omnivore Pokemon maybe ate (and in case of certain pokemon maybe still do eat) other pokemon for survival back in the medival days or so until genetical research were reworked to create eadible chickens and pigs. So we shouldnt be scared about eating our friends and partners unless you find yourself in a country that has no such research.
Hope I dont sound crazy
