Today I've just been musing in my head about one of my favourite OCs of mine and found myself giggling about how ridiculous the "logistics" of it is.
Obviously in the joy of writing there's the suspension of disbelief and things that are fun are just allowed to be fun at the end of the day but...
It is definitely a problem in a world of anthro Pokemon if you're trying to be a grand standing phantom thief. Making displays and over the top speeches to the authorities before making a grand escape is slightly lessened by the fact that it would be easy ENOUGH to identify the true identity has to be a thievul woman. Just kind of a funny thing to try and disguise yourself when Pokemon are SO identifiable as their species.
