What is the government of the Pokemon world?

>>27808943
Democratic socialism

>>27808943
junta

>>27808985
Explains why the infrastructure is almost non-existent

>>27808943
Anarcho-Communationalist.

>>27808943
well, the anime has a democracy, the manga has the pokemon league serving as the government, as for the games, who the fuck knows considering what mafia and terrorist groups get away with with no government intervention.

>>27808943
It's a fucking anarchy. The only person to stop a criminal organisation is a ten years old kid.

>>27809006
They have pokemon, their society is closer to nature.

>>27808985
That would explain why towns have so few houses, everyone is poor, prices and crime is so high, but at least they get free healthcare.

Either an anarchy that still manages to have a functioning capitalistic market, or a Feudalistic government where the Pokemon League controls the Gyms who control the towns. Either way police forces seem to be nearly non-existent, with policing being done almost exclusively by the Gym Leaders and vigilantes.

>>27809085
>Prices are high
What?

>>27808943
literally an utopia

>>27808943
Silph Co owns the entire pokemon world.

>>27809145
bikes.

>>27809145
He's one of those idiots that thinks that pokebucks = dollars, when in reality they're probably meant to represent yen.

$10,000 bikes exist. The real question is why someone would set up a shop that deals exclusively in them.

>>27809206
Devon is just a puppet.
Every commonly used item by every trainer uses is either produced by Silph Co or is some bitter herbal tea.

It'd be a monopoly if it weren't for these poor old ladies and "Devon"

>pokemon league serving as the government
I know that this is for children but wtf.

Markets are relatively free, children can gamble, schooling is voluntary and everyone is armed to the literal teeth. Seems libertarian.

>>27809085
>poor
Everyone has money, even kids in under 10 have money.

>>27809271
To make money?

>>27809271
>They're actually selling bike vouchers and the sheer prize of the bikes is merely to trick people.

>>27809340
this

no one needs weapons because owning pokemon is more effective then having a weapon

>>27809271
>10,000
The currency in pokemon is based around yen, therefore no cents. So if you want to know how much something ""really"" cost just divide the value by 100.

>>27809006
Must be libertarian then

>>27809553
If there's demand there's infrastructure.

>>27809340
something rather close to that but with free healthcare to stay militarily strong, and an aversion to war from a particularly bad one in the past that wrecked Kanto and Johto.

>>27809585
People are too busy catching pokemon to demand anything

>>27809534
I did dumbass.
It costs 1,000,000 in game. Thus, in US dollars, it would be about 10,000.

>>27809494
That would make too much sense.

What about pokeballs?

>>27808943
We've never seen a centralized government in pokemon. People try to use the free healthcare meme but I've always seen Pokemon centers as privately owned.
