Thread: What are they eating?

I noticed in the anime sometimes they eat food like hamburgers and hotdogs. If there are only Pokemon in the pokemon world are they eating pokemon?

I'm pretty sure there were miltank burgers in one ep, so maybe its miltank?

I'm pretty sure there eating pokemon just like we eat animals, we keep animals as pets, our friends, but we also eat them, the humans in the pokemno world do the same thing with pokemon plus battling, and just like us I'm pretty sure they only eat certain kinds of pokemon, I can beleave them eating a Miltank, but not a Meowth for example, it's basicly a counterpart world, heck Farfetch'd is said to be eaten, the writers dance around the issue but theres no doubt to me.

Yup, they definitely eat Pokemon. Though, I would guess only a select few.

^ What the above said, they probably only eat select pokemon like Miltank, Tauros, Magikarp(they were going to in pokemon shipreck XD lol).

Probably.

I know pokemon eat other pokemon, like in a description on a metagross card, something about it trapping it's pray and eating it.

They're obviously eating the fallen pokemon of their defeated foes ;)

Maybe they only eat pokemon that died of natural causes.

It's interesting to note that most instances of cheeseburgers, sandwiches and hot dogs appearing in the anime are merely edits by 4Kids. In the original anime, they were riceballs. And remember, regular animals have been seen in the show, so the characters aren't necessairily eating Pokemon. Most likely, they are, though.

Even so, this isn't the only occurrence of people eating Pokemon. Slowpoke tails were referred to as a delicacy in Gold and Silver.

Normal animals really only appeared back when the pokemon universe wasn’t well established, I'm pretty sure at this point it is fair to say there are no normal animals in the pokemon world really, maybe a bird, bug, and fish or two, nothing really major and that pokemon are the animals, and agreed on the last part.

well, purgers come from cows so probably Tauros or Miltank, most likely Tauros


and Hot dogs come from pigs so Spoink or Grumpig? or Pokabu? XD

It's been mentioned in Pokedex entries of various Pokemon being hunters or the hunted. So I'm going to say Pokemon eat other Pokemon, and the bug type can eat leaves. For humans, they probably eat Miltank burgers and Sirloin Tauros.

They eat Miltank Burgers from McRocket's™, have Pokabu bacon for breakfast, hunt Farfetch'd as a gourmet meal (unfortunately) and partake in some lean, grilled Basurao or Maggyo. I would love eating Maggyo, as I loved to eat halibut as a kid. Oh, I can't forget all-you-can-eat Chobomaki at Blue Krabby™. It's a delicacy.

oh, i didn't even notice that they ate pokemon D:
but now that i'm thinking about it .. i think they did eat miltank burgers once ;O;

Well if there weren't animals in the Pokemon World, then explain to me how Goldeen is called the Goldfish Pokemon or Krabby is called the River Crab Pokemon, how would they know what a golfish or crab are? In DPPt it said something about eating pokemon in the Canalave Library though. So I'd say they eat both Pokemon and animals (if they have them).
