Slowpoke Tails Are Still Tasty 

Slowpoke tails are nutritious and delicious! We’ve known that since Pokémon Gold and Silver. And now, we get to know that some more.

Previously, Slowpoke tail plushies went on sale in Japan.

Also I caught a Slowpoke like, ok cool, then I read that ALOLANS EAT SLOWPOKE TAILS.
THEY EAT THE POKEMON.

There’s more.

So they’re retconning Team Rocket’s “cut off Slowpoke tails and sell them” plan to be less horrifying? Lame. pic.twitter.com/X3SXLYXEpw

Huh, I thought cutting off and selling Slowpoke tails was illegal or heavily frowned upon in the Pokémon world. pic.twitter.com/Ni9PKPRqOf
