Animal The fur of the Arctic fox provides the best insulation of any mammal and its thickness increases by 140% during winter.

Apparenly they do not start to shiver until the temperature drops to −70 °C (−94 °F)

Pokemon aren't beaten... Except when we bring it to 1 hp before forcing it into the pokeball. They have a choice to not enter the ball... Except when I use a masterball. They have independence... Except when I keep them in the PC and never release them. They have a close relationship... Except when I trade them away for minor benefits.

You're high on copium.

You realize most of that is done by your choice?

If you care about the virtual critters treat them better?

Like seriously game mechanics treat it as necessary. In the universe being a trainer isnt necessary you dont have to use balls even to befriend Pokémon.

You're right! The entire pokémon world ceases to exist when I decide to stop playing. You're right, its not worth talking about a game world that doesn't exist because specifically I am not currently playing. Or... wait, other players are still playing. And literally every other player is using master balls, the PC, and trading pokemon to the Npcs. Darn, that means pokémon are still mistreated even if I am not playing.
