This is actually basically what happens in the episode this image is from; ash's gang and team rocket are stranded on a boat, and they try to eat James's magikarp, but magikarp is literally just scales and bones. James, frustrated that magikarp is useless for eveything, even being eaten, hits it into the ocean, and it proceeds to evolve and attacks everyone, blowing them onto an island.
What always bothered me about this scene was that after someone bites into one, Misty says that magicarp are all scale and bones. But other sources ever since then show magicarp being a popular choice for both people and pokemon to eat. This is like the ditto face thing all over again. The pokemon company is always quietly retconning things.
Pokemon eat other Pokemon all the time (Grapploct and Golisopod, Heatmor and Durant, Sableye and Carbink). Why should we be shamed for finding Miltank tasty?
Magikarp aren‘t edible. When they get stranded after the SS Anne wrecks (same episode OP’s picture is from) they think about eating James Magikarp. Meowth tries and brakes his teeth because it’s basically just scales and bones.
i always found these posts (the serious ones of course) to be so weird. like what else would they be eating? there's no other animals in the world besides pokémon. did people really think everyone was just collectively vegetarian?
This post was a jab at the people who’ve been saying this since the new games came out. I’ve been watching and playing Pokemon my whole life. I’ve always known people and Pokemon eat each other
I say it and get -5 upvotes. You do it in post form and suddenly it's worth an entire 8 bit processor and then some? (At the time of this comment my screen shows this post with 256 upvotes)
Context: They were drifting out at sea for a while after escaping a sunken ship and James’ Magikarp was just flopping around on their raft so they fantasized about eating it but Misty tells all of them that it’s just scale and bone
If my memory serves me correctly that's was after the ship crashed and they were stuck at sea and magikarp flops on board and then ash and brock start imagining eating it which is that picture but not long after misty says its just skin and bones
I’m 24 and have watched and played Pokemon my whole life. This post was just a jab at all of the people who were saying the same thing since the new games came out. I’ve known from the beginning that Pokemon get eaten
Hey, trainers! This is a community moderation bot.
Imagine your about to cut him up and he starts evolving lol.

Yeah James kicked the mofo off after finding it wasn't a shiny because he got scammed and then it evolved
Been wanting to eat a Kingler ever since Gen 1. SW/SH amplified that 100x with the GMax
Kingler curry is within sword and shield curry dex.
'Eat' like 'eat', yes?.... Yes?
Best we can do is Klawf with garlic, take it or leave it
gen two ate slowpoke tail didnt they?
You can put them in curry in SWSH too
Yup
I even thinks theres a some pokedex entry stating how delicious some are
Farfetched
Toedscruel and veluza are a delicacy in paldea

Maybe some people like the scale and bone
We go through this discussion every Gen. People have eaten pokemon since Gen 1 and that's never changed.

A Tauros steak would really hit the spot right now.
Hell, Pokemon eat people
Lol max shade at that previous post from today.
I got tired of seeing people say it since the game came out lol
I ate a Feebas today.
I'm really hoping the scales don't say it's made of rocks
At least now Magikarp has a use besides Gyarados..

Don't forget they also eat pokemon in another way.
Hey guys did you know
In early Pokémon games, people married Pokémon, so basically the same thing.
internet explorer as a redditor
i always found these posts (the serious ones of course) to be so weird. like what else would they be eating? there's no other animals in the world besides pokémon. did people really think everyone was just collectively vegetarian?
Exactly. You can’t look at people built like Bruno and Tierno and tell me that they’re vegetarians
Noooo way!!11!1 they can't just eat wild animals!!!1!1
Slowpoke tails?
Imagine your about to cut him up and he starts evolving lol.
Hahahahhaha thank you
"Just"

It is spelled ‟delicious”.
Sushi anyone?
Someone check on the homie MunchingOrange to see how he's coping with all this

just? This is literally the first season...
i want chico n oddish salad
But I feel like a lot of Pokémon descriptions are food related in this game
Like that episode JUST came out

Correct
Yeah but for the longest time it was just an old anime thing but now it’s really confirmed
Wait til ya see the Klawf sticks on a sammich :)
You can make a ham sandwich in scarlet and violet so yeah
We already knew this. We just didn't realize the full extent of it.
Well, at least Magikarp finally had a use.
Sinnoh folk myths confirmed humans eat Pokemon.
cough cough farfetchd
[удалено]
We ate Pokemon in SwSh tho
Gen 1 dex literally talked about eating farfetched
Fair point. Slowpoke tails were a delicacy in gen 2 games tho
The best example I can give of people eating Pokémon all the way back in the early gens is chansey, where it’s Crystal pokedex entry reads:
