I don't know how it happened, but it looks like Professor Oak sent everyone here some Pokemon... That means, as trainers, everyone is responsible for their Pokemon, to help raise them and make sure they stay healthy. I thought I should talk about it, since most people here aren't used to having Pokemon.
Some of them may look scary, but on the inside, Pokemon are just as loving and caring as us. The trainer's influence on a Pokemon is huge- If a trainer is a bad person, their Pokemon will be too, but if you care for them with all your heart, they'll always be your friend.
It's okay to have your Pokemon battle each other, they usually enjoy that. Most Pokemon are very competitive, so they'll fight each other for their trainers. But they won't fight well without a trainer's commands, so that's where you have to come in, and command your Pokemon. If you don't like fighting, that's okay, too. There's a lot of other things you can do, like contests. Just spending time with your Pokemon can make them happy.
Oh, and if your Pokemon ever get hurt, please bring them to me! I can heal them.
