Video (CW for discussing the ethics of hunting);

[truthdecided]

[It's on a chilly morning that Akechi greets the network, bundled up in his sweater and the cloak hiding the last traces of his molt.]

A thought occurred to me. Those of you who hunt... how do you reconcile the act of hunting with the fact that Pokémon are all of relatively similar intelligence?

[His voice is calm, his expression relaxed, as if he's merely entertaining a thought experiment.]

This is not my attempt to shame anyone. I am aware that residents of the world also hunt, yet every Pokémon seems capable of eating alternative forms of food. Berries, poffins, Poképuffs, curry... With the city bringing together such a variety of creatures, it does make hunting all the more perplexing from an ethical and philosophical standpoint.

So, humor me, if you feel so inclined. I'm genuinely curious how one reconciles such an ethical quandary.
