Because Team Rocket are the only enjoyable characters in the anime anymore.

Feeding your pokemon human food will shorten its lifespan. Pokemon food is too expensive for Team Rocket

Well what the fuck, they sit on the same table. Why aren't the Pokemons sitting at the table with their trainers at the bottom pic? There's no equality there now isn't there?

meowth is more human since it walks on two legs and talks, the pokemon are being treated like pets, or animals

Pokemans are sentient battle slaves.. They are even imprisoned in little magical balls when not training or fighting. Yet they are happy with this, they live for this. I take that back, they only live for this after being beat down and imprisoned in the balls, which apparently have a brain washing function. This is the brutality of gladiator battles conveniently minus the death and the gladiators being happy this being their lot in life. Kinda hard to root for someone swearing to be the best of the slave masters. Not only that, these gladiator battles are constant, almost only thing anyone thinks about is watching people battle to nondeath.

Pokemon evolved to obey trainers. The ones that didn't were killed off.

Meowth is the Uncle Tom of Pokemon

I bet Meowth is a good talker on the table. like, they talk about business but he throws in a good idea or joke

>>33501484
Wobbuffet usually eats with them, too.

Because this is an unjust society.
Don't worry, though. Soon, the Pokemon will rise up, wipe out the humans, and half-bury the Statue of Liberty in the sand.

This. Brock made meals specific to each Pokemons nutritional needs. Team Rocket is that kind of ghetto person who feeds their dog nothing but Kentucky Fried Chicken. Meowth has a protien deficiency and will die of sodium poisoning while Vulpix lives a long and comfy life.

Meowth isn't Jessie and James' Pokemon, he's treated more as an equal, that's why they often hit him like they do each oher...

>>33499764
It's sadly true...
