A little bit farther and we might end up in an Oddworld-like dystopia.Aaaaand now we're in a dystopia, breeding out slaves for the sole purpose of providing for humanity's energy needs...

At the very least Galar is already there. Why else do you think are so many Pokemon not allowed in region whose gimmick is cooking? It's not Galar government that forbids them being brought here - it's the other regions that forbid trainers to take certain species there for their own good.A little bit farther and we might end up in an Oddworld-like dystopia.
I prefer the alternate timeline where I didn't get that joke.A little bit farther and we might end up in an Oddworld-like dystopia.
No, he can't speak, so he can't age aloud.Wait, you mean...
There's a universe in which Ash is aloud to age!?!
I hate typos.No, he can't speak, so he can't age aloud.
I was going to make it a Terminator reference originally, but I decided to go for the lesser known one. I also forgot that Soulstorm exists, making things way darker than intended.I prefer the alternate timeline where I didn't get that joke.
So Ash could conceivably be called a Pokemon Master, he's just too idiotic to realize it?The title of "Pokémon Master" is bestowed upon those possessing two main attributes:
The notion that one must catch one of every Pokémon in the world, become a League Champion, or something of that sort originated with those who either do not possess or do not understand these qualities.
- The ability to form meaningful bonds of friendship with any Pokémon.
- The ability to raise any Pokémon to its maximum potential without resorting to cruel or unethical methods.
He certainly meets the first criterion. The second is debatable, but I think that's for another thread.So Ash could conceivably be called a Pokemon Master, he's just too idiotic to realize it?
I actually prefer this over the vague definition that the anime has (had?).The title of "Pokémon Master" is bestowed upon those possessing two main attributes:

Wouldn't be surprised if this was actually right, since that actually happens to me.Lusamine, Lillie, and Gladion burn (by which I mean sunburns, not the status condition) extremely easily due to their incredibly fair skin, which is ironic given where they live.

This is an extremely minor and ultimately inconsequential headcanon but:

The Canalave Library in Sinnoh actually provides an in-game explanation for this:Whenever a "wild Pokemon appears", it's usually not actually aggresive towards player - it's the PC that asks it for a training fight. Why else would swarms of supposedly docile or even cowardly Pokemon like Caterpie or Sentret attack you every few steps, why would it attack your Pokemon and not you directly, why can you always easily escape once all your Pokemon are defeated, and why NPCs can apparently walk through tall grass without any problem?
