this is because the message of pokemon is that evil is less plausible than good. overlooking the fantastic machinations of team rocket, in the first episode professor oak gives pikachu to ash for no remuneration. this would suggest pikachu is not very valuable in a dollars-and-cents kind of way. also, if jesse and james went to professor oak he might give them a pikachu. maybe. but they never ask.
Um...pokemon? Why analyze pokemon?
either way it's pitiful
