Yeah, but that's only a story. An interesting one, but still...

That's just a theory.He could have left his Raticate in his PC or something.Plus, this whole PETA thing is stupid.
1:It's fantasy, not reality.
2:Pokemon are still animals in a way, they battled for territory and food way before humans even existed.
3:Some Pokemon don't want to battle, if their trainers are forcing them then the Pokemon would try to rebel and run away (yes they CAN run away whenever they want to).It has been showcased in the anime that most of the Pokemon are friends with humans (and when the humans are evil the Pokemon become evil too, but not abused or physically corrupted in any way, just comedic relief evil).
4:Trainers earn the respect of Pokemon by showing them their skill in Pokemon battles and their care.So the whole "Pokemon hate battles" thing is stupid and it shows PETA's ignorance very well.

So yeah...FUCK YOU PETA AND I HOPE YOU GET KILLED BY A MAGIKARP (they deserve a humiliating death)!!!

I think wishing death upon PETA is one of the worst things you can wish for. PETA, while they can be complete Nidokocks- they do work for the ethical treatment of animals to inform the general public about how horribly animals are treated and want to make a change(and have done so).

Like I said before, PETA attacking Pokemon is dumb because you can't push real world values and morals on a fictional universe (same with racism and sexism in games). Pokemon can easily be seen as fictional creature baiting
"You find a random Rattata who is captured, taken away from their family, habit and lifestyle and force to endure pain so a human can gain a shiny badge". Again, you don't see it like that because it's not real.
