sexhaver:

probably the scariest thing about Pokemon is that there are canonically no regular animals in the world. think about that. whalers hunted Wailords for their oil and blubber. Magikarp are fried up and served for dinner and once every few months a Magikarp hatchery probably has a disaster where one of them accidentally evolves and destroys the entire facility. sometimes a sewer pipe will get clogged and they’ll send a repairman down to look into it and he shines his flashlight into the darkness only to illuminate hundreds or pairs of Grimer and Muk eyes and he prays to God before remembering that God is a pokemon too

Aren’t magikarp canonically difficult to prepare for consumption due to their hard scales?
