The best thing to do?

It sounded like Mate was talking more about having a Ditto turn into, say, a Tauros, then killing that and selling the meat, which would basically be a waste of a Ditto for exactly the reasons you gave.

People in the West keep dogs as pets. People in other cultures eat dogs.

Ditto wouldn't work that well, considering Ditto can't breed with other Ditto, your only source of getting them is to catch more.

And guess what you can do there?

The only issue now is when the Pokedex references them, like when it says "the Poodle pokemon"
Why does no one ask "What's a poodle?!?"
:/

The different descriptions aren't retcons though. They're just different parts of a more expansive unseen Pokedex. The two games in a pair (e.g. X&Y) almost always have totally different Pokedex entries for each Pokemon.
*shrug*

Yeah,but their are actual animals in the series i've seen in episodes though.

Raise Pokemon to required age. Store in Pokeball until processing is required, or transfer via PC to the Slaughterhouse PC, saves on shipping/maintaining livestock costs.

"Oh, is this offensive? I had no idea! If only we had a teacher to educate us on such things!"

Here's hoping none of the students decide to protest Barron's suspension by showing up to school in blackface.

Those gun owners make us all look bad. That's the problem with weapons: they allow people who have power fantasies to actually live out their fantasies (or hope to). It scares me and I have always wondered if we couldn't incorporate some mental-health assessment into gun ownership, but then of course there would be…

I think the worst gun owners are the ones just WAITING to "get" to use their gun and be the hero that gets the bad guy. The ones that their gun is one of the first and most important things they want you to know about them and who love to entertain a "if that had been me they wouldn'ta gotten away with that" fantasy…

I understand the confusion. MOST of the course is gun safety. The rest is learning the law about where you can and cannot carry and under what circumstances you are allowed to defend yourself with a firearm legally.

Exactly. I have no problem with cutesy or pink self defense weapons, as long as they work. I just personally am not a pink person. But I do really appreciate that gun manufacturers make models that have slimmer grips and are lighter so they are easier for me to handle. I don't appreciate the fact that it's…

I had a HUGE argument with my sister in law over not finding a pink, sparkly Hello Kitty hand gun to be a wise choice in her home with a cute, sparkly, loves pink 3 year old child. If you're bad ass enough to carry the gun, be bad ass enough to make sure it doesn't look like a toy.

I carry pink mace, with a dye in it that would stain the skin of a fleeing attacker. The neon pink is moreso that I can easily find in even in the dark in my cluttered purse. It's not "cute" but it is pink. It's a color haha. A color that will help me have just a sliver of a hope that I can defend myself in a…
