That raises a very interesting point. Most Pokemon builds we see are based around competitive battling, or travelling the wilderness (HM slaves etc). This is normal because we always follow the perspective of a Pokemon trainer travelling to challenge the League.
But for regular people, living their daily lives, getting a Pokemon "team" will probably be less about these things, and more about the general comfort of daily living, either by being amazing pets (like the Flareon above) or by helping with everyday chores.
Something like an Octillery will give you a Helping Hand with the dishes by using Soak and Bubble Beam, and then never dropping them ever due to its Suction Cups ability. Or Musharnas helping insomniacs fall asleep with Moonlight (for the atmosphere), Calm Mind, then finally putting you to sleep with Yawn or Hypnosis. They could even warn them of potential threats while sleeping with Forewarn.
Not to mention all the industries where Pokemon could work as replacements for specialized machinery: we've seen plenty of Machokes and Conceldurrs (using Strength, no doubt) on construction sites, and electric types as batteries/power plants. Excadrills could help with creating tunnels and mining. Not to mention the singular god-esque figures that can just alter the laws of physics to their trainer's every whim.
For a world full of willing creatures that can do so much, they are *very* underutilized. How is this society *less* advanced than our own technologically and especially infrastructurally (just a couple of small towns, maybe one large town per region, most of them not even connected with regular routes, just tall grass roaming with wild animals). Even the Flintstones used their dinosaurs in more creative ways.
Outside of that, thanks for being my first ask ever. If anyone wants to send more, feel free to do so :)
