Welp, I guess I would never be a trainer in this world. Needles and microchips - ich.

It's only league trainers. You can still be a normal trainer and travel.

I feel like to somebody with a fear of needles, the chip needle probably looks to be the size of a turkey baster.
When I got multiple vaccines in one go, it was a bunch of tiny ones. Can't remember which ones though, but it was because Ia was headed out of the country to Guatemala. Little jars with needles attached to them. it struck me as kinda odd at the time.
Glitter bombs huh? Like balloons of glitter that you pop with a laser, or like fireworks full of glitter? If the latter, what is the ideal propellant? I want to make a glitter rocket.
That is the coolest inductively powered monitoring device since the mark of the beast! but seriously, that sounds like a pretty sweet idea, do you know if it is actually plausible? the location would make the injection hurt..... like days of funny bone kind of hurt. ugh.

Electrodes attached to the body can detect nerve currents in muscles when they are moved. The detection would be done via induction. While I don't know if this kind of thing in particular exists. It is not implausible. I imagine it would be accompanied by a slow-release anti-inflammatory and anti-biotic pellet or something, maybe even a small amount of painkiller for the initial injection in order to lessen the inflammation reaction which can be caused by having foreign objects in the body.
But I'm very content to let people suspend their disbelief.
I am basically going to cite magic half the time. Seeing as pokeballs are afaik impossible given current laws of physics.
