Think about it, none of Ash's companions ever have a job, so why are they still able buy food? More over, why aren't they dead yet? Were all of Ash's companions rich or something? Seriously, after all of his traveling, climbing mountains, facing evil organizations, going through poisonous forests, and they are still alive? Atleast they could have pikachu die from starvation or from disease like cancer by now, including all of them. Especially Team Rocket, they said once that they have no food, and they are also alive? Does someone give them free hamburgers everytime they beg on the streets? Do they even beg on the streets? Do they even have those "Will work for food" signs? Seriously, none of this makes any sense, they should all be dead by now.

It's pokemon. It doesn't have to make sense. What do you expect other forum members to reply when you raise a topic like this?

If I have to repeat the whole "this is pokemon we're talking about" line one more time, I'm flagging this thread.
 
Maybe they really do get money for beating trainers.

Just joking, but seriously it's a happy go lucky show, you wouldn't see a glameow holding up a sign saying "Can i haz cheezeburgerz?"

The closest thing to a Pokemon "Living on the street" was the episode that explained Meowths past, where be was a street cat, and there was that cat, meowzie or something.

Heck their parents probably send them money from their jobs, who knows maybe Ash's father works for a living, plus with all the food they find in best wishes from Iris I'd be surprised if they do go starving.

What makes pokemon so different that they cannot show poverty in their animes?

You can talk about that if you can show me a cartoon aimed at kids that has poverty, cancer, starvation and death depicted in realistic terms. Start googling now. The validity of your thread's discussive value hinges on it.
 
This is quite possibly the dumbest thread I've seen on here for a while. And that's saying something.

Clearly the OP is missing out on the "fun" part of Pokémon.
