First, found myself asking the question: What if rare candy affected people like it did Pokemon? Then I thought that people themselves are also quite like Pokemon. Various people do training like activity such as Martial arts, (one would learn certain attacks like kicking, punching, ect.) exersize, weight lifting, and keeping a balanced diet.
As they do, they have the potential to build muscle and grow to become stronger individuals. Some even hire personal trainers to help them excersize and improve techniques. Also people can themselves participate in sports and games that require and test knowledge, strategy, endurance, and strength. Family members and friends can take other family members or friends to the doctor or hospital if they need help. Also I`ve noticed that those who practice in their professions more can improve over time.
What do you think on this matter?
Other questions:
Why wouldn`t humans be affected by things that work on Pokemon?
What sets Pokemon and People apart aside from elemental powers like generating electricity or breathing fire, fantasy/ reality, and the species boundary?
(Another note: Some pokemon look similar to people. i.e: Jynx)
Feel free to bring up other questions as well relating this as long as it is discussable.

V would have to agree with people being similar to Pokemon also another thing they have in common is eacher pokemon has a personality trait that is displayed while people can have a personality trait which isn't exactly displayed but more of noticed.
This next part could be completely wrong since I think it was implemented after I stopped really playing Pokemon but the IV things influence how quickly/slowly they advance in things while certain people also are better at certain things than others I.E Strength, intelligence, creativity etc etc

Ninety percent of most magic...Well, if they orgionated in the same place, what makes humans not pokemon? O_o ...merely consists of knowing one extra fact.

Okami Ameras Ninety percent of most magic...Well, if they orgionated in the same place, what makes humans not pokemon? O_o ...merely consists of knowing one extra fact. An excellent question which brings up another question on mind: Couldn`t Pokemon have the same potential to build on society? In the wild they seem to coexist with one another and though their intelligence varies from Pokemon to Pokemon, could a gathering of such intelligence lead them to build societies similar to peoples`?

They could possibly create their own society after a time but could change things around a little *would go into detail but noone would get his reference*

Exactly. Also like pokemon, human intelligence varies.
It seems to me the only difference beteen the two is that one evolves and the other does not.

I dont really know much about pokemon. my son was into it when he was a younger child. all I know is it's a battle-card game. however, I would venture to guess it is similar in some ways to what human beings are like simply because it's a human concept.. man made. it comes from the angle of human perspective. anything we think of.. whether it's games or gods is going to be reminiscent of human beings, whether it's similarities in concepts or actions.

Saikii An excellent question which brings up another question on mind: Couldn`t Pokemon have the same potential to build on society? In the wild they seem to coexist with one another and though their intelligence varies from Pokemon to Pokemon, could a gathering of such intelligence lead them to build societies similar to peoples`? They do. They have. It's canon. biggrin In the first season of Pokemon Ash & Co. run across a colony of Clefairy who have a society and rituals. (This is a much more detailed thing in the manga than it is in the anime, by the way. Ash, Professor Oak, and Bill spend a couple of days with the Clefairy and are invited to participate in a Clefairy evolution ceremony.) In addition, several Pokemon-- Abra/Kadabra/Alakazan and Dratini/Dragonair/Dragonite specifically mentioned that I can think of-- are noted as having human level or above intelligence. And let's not forget Team Rocket's Meowth-- which taught itself to walk upright all the time and speak human. The main difference between humans and Pokemon is that according to the manga all Pokemon are essentially one species, genetically speaking. That means that an Onix is genetically identical to a Butterfree to a Hitmonchan to a Gastly and so forth. That's kind of like saying that a cow is genetially identical to a lizard to a lion to a bird. Of course *those* animals-- cow, lizard, etc.-- aren't genetically the *exact* same species. But Pokemon *are*. Purportedly this means that any Pokemon can breed with any other Pokemon, although in the game you have to go by 'egg groups' and so forth and so on. That's one of the reasons, in the manga, they're being studied so closely. The second is because of their rapid evolutionary capabilities. And yes, I'm a Pokefiend xd I own Yellow, Red, Blue, Gold, Silver, Fire Red, Leaf Green, and I'm saving up for a DS so I can get Diamond and Pearl.

Use( or rather abuse) of steroids can have side affects that are known to the medical community (unlike rare candy). Steroids, I believe were originally only meant as a medical treatment to stimulate where certian weaker parts of the body needed it. (such as minor steroids for aid of physical treatment of illnesses) Rare candy used tactically usually raises the level or specific traits of a Pokemon if I remember correctly. I don`t believe rare candy itself has quite the negative side affects of use as abuse of steroids do. (at least this has not been entirely proven or exhibited to my knowledge)
