A little different from these "Pokémon are real" threads, wich this is not. What im asking is, what do you think pokémon would be like if they were real in a more realistic sense. For instance, you would have your standard domesticated 'mons like stoutland and and skitty, and you have your farm pokémon like miltank and torchic.

Then you have your properly wild pokémon like mightyena and houndoom. And you wouldnt find one on its own in the wild, and it wouldnt patiently sit there, waiting for you to pick a pokemon and send it out, you would be swarmed and eaten, or burned ect, but most definetly killed. (See image)
The same would be with trainers. You wouldnt have gym leaders like iris or jasmine, because, i highly doubt that pokémon would be that easy to tame. Training one would take alot of personal strenght and years of dedication. However, the domestic pokémon would still be able to battle of course, and people would probably train them to be able to defend them from wild pokémon for whatever reason.

So the thing is, what do you think the games would be like, or even life if they did exist in this manner. Would it be better, would it be worse, and would you play a game made to this style?

Tl;dr Realistic pokémon.
