Why is every grunt in the Pokémon games some goofy or retarded

Do you really have to ask that question?

If a real criminal wanted to stop you, they'd just shoot you in the head.

Most of Team Rocket aren't goofy. A few, like the one who drops the Key, yeah, but most are serious about what they do.

Rocket is a two-bit gang of thugs who use shitmons, of course they aren't intimidating.

There are no guns in Pokemon. inb4 you use the anime to say they do.

The Aether Employees are actually serious and not played for laugh much. Faba is the comic relief one of the bunch.

You're really missing the point. If they were serious, they'd just attack you as you were and not give a shit about the Pokemon aspect, with any kind of weapon or just manhandling you themselves/jumping you when you had your guard down.

Have you ever watched any movie or tv show? Bad guy underlings are always jokes.

Children's game.
you cant exactly murder the main character in a kids game where you're the protagonist.
it'd be hard to explain some grunt shooting a 10 year old with a 22 caliber and getting an instant game over.
