I agree with everything except the last part, my headcannon is that Pokemon have bodily autonomy and can choose to do whatever they like with their bodies, Tattoos, Piercings, Bodymods etc...
If a Gardevoir or really any Pokémon wants a piercing or a tattoo, its getting a tattoo. They can create blackholes and are often willing to die for their trainer or beliefs at a moments notice. I dont think they give a damn about laws.
In a 1v1 battle with a Human vs a Pokémon, The Human will likely always lose.
Bodily autonomy with human-level intelligence is fine. If they insist on having tattoos and other stuff on their skin, that's not a large and very painful health risk as it would be with their crest. It's illegal for the sake of their health and safety.
The issue is that the creast is a very important organ. It's like tattooing a heart or carving a spine in a human. Theoretically possible and someone could even consent to it, but it's a terrible idea. (at least in my headcanon of course)
Pokemon that live peacefully with humans, which is the main focus here, certainly benefit from laws and a working society. Breaking laws and acting like a monster or an animal would not be beneficial in the long run.
Pokemon vs human combat analysis would require having far more pokemon knowledge than I have. Pretty much all of my pokemon knowledge is based around Gardevoir.
