Humans in various age groups have been shown in all sources of Pokémon media, while infants have seldom been seen and very rarely appear in the {{pkmn|anime}}. Noteworthy differences include hair and eye color in almost every color, including those which would not be possible in real life. The biological relationship between humans and Pokémon is not explored within the series, aside from a few references in [[Sinnoh myths]] mentioning that humans and Pokémon once coexisted as a single species. A few individuals appear to possess abilities well beyond those that real-world humans are capable of attaining, such as having {{tc|Psychic}} or [[Aura]] powers. | ||
For comical purposes, characters in the Pokémon world are often pictured with a greatly exaggerated ability to withstand physical trauma, (e.g. being {{status|burned}}, {{status|poisoned}}, and falling great distances). The most common occurrence of humans being harmed without injury is the constant electrocution of {{Ash}} and his nemesis, the [[Team Rocket trio]], consisting of [[Jessie]], [[James]] and {{MTR}}, who are blasted off over the horizon countless times in the early seasons of the {{pkmn|anime}} series. However, Pokémon still present a threat to humans, hence why people need a license in order to train Pokémon. | For comical purposes, characters in the Pokémon world are often pictured with a greatly exaggerated ability to withstand physical trauma, (e.g. being {{status|burned}}, {{status|poisoned}}, and falling great distances).
