I'm sure there is out there. For me it's walking outside in some utopic green place, tropical heat, palm trees, a decent and well kept but small town and the way to the next town is a long walk away. Or something like that, that's what I think of when I remember early Pokemon.
But I was mainly thinking of people controlling monsters
I'll write a short story for you, anon. Though idk what you are looking for.
Is it just creatures which people capture and use for battle or is it the tone like what stated?
Thank you. Will keep that in mind when writing my little story for OP. I'll probably have the monsters be summoned rather than kept in Pokeballs or the like as to make it less like they are animals forced to fight for humans' amusement.

he basically describes trips where he goes to exotic locations to collect animals for his zoo
he literally did catch 'em all
Has anyone here actually read this? I always wonder how Russian Postmodernism is but then I'm dissuaded from trying any of Pelevins work when I remember how strange and stilted the language in translated Russian books tends to be outside of the classics
I got to the part where he basically explained the number 7 as the basis for all his life choices, it was there I realized I don’t have anywhere near the amount of cocaine required to understand Russian postmodernism.
I can live with that.
What I don't like is that they do an asspull like "they actually enjoy fighting each other :)" and painting what's basically Pokemon Liberation Front as all liars who actually beat pokemon in public
It is far less unethical to abduct Blacks from the Congo and israelites from the Levant and pit them against one another than it is to make innocent and benevolent Pokemon battle for your own amusement.
I'd enslave you and make you fight Pygmy people for my own amusement, and you would not be able to turn on me because I'd have a graphene-based deathswitch implanted into your body that I can click to end you anytime.

This has the makings of a great novel and videogame franchise.
unironically and without malice, you should probably be reading Middle Grade or Young Adult novels, which are aimed at children in the way that Pokemon is. or just stick to manga.
there's a YA book called The Novice which was inspired by Pokemon. Jim Butcher had a book called Furies of Calderon which was very Pokemon-meets-ATLA.
i think it's pretty hard to perfectly capture something that was meant to be either a video game or an anime (with full audio-visual aspects) in novel form.
The story goes that Butcher was in an argument with another writer about whether some premises were inherently bad. Butcher apparently claimed that a good story could be written from any base ideas, and went so far as to bet the other that he could write something decent out of a fusion of two terrible premises. He was given Pokemon and the Lost Roman Legion. He proceeded to write an entire epic fantasy series about Romans summoning personal elementals to fight native american elves, blood magic werewolves, and the Zerg. It's fun enough.

Ash tore a pokeball from his bandoleer, "GO DRAGONSHREW," he shouted, hurling his forlorn hope into a crowd of killer robots. Lasers blasted his position tearing through his flesh and sending him slumping down into the mud. A bright flash and a prideful roar of te Dragonshrew was quickly silenced by the flashing lasers and Ash knew the poor pokemon had been killed. He mourned his Pikachu, a creature he had not even thought to name until it had been too late. He caught his breath at the memory of [pokemon girl trainer] naked body hanging crucified above the Palet Town Port, her legs burned away by the evil mech soldiers.
He heard a beeping at his throat from his bomb-collar, it was Corporal Oak in Imperial Japanese Military Uniform, "get back out there, Ketchum!" the old man barked, "don't make me blow your head off!" and Ash wept, "please Professor Oak," he sobbed, "I just want to go home!"
But Professor Oak had not existed in years, "KILL!" roared the Corporal, "FOR THE EMPEROR OF JAPAN!" and Ash, though there was barely life left in his body, felt along his bandoleer for the last remaining pokeball.
"It's just you and me Sneezelpoof," he said, and brace himself against the wet earthworks, he would throw on the count of three. And then he could sleep.

I'm trying to think of anything but I just can't, I'm sorry anon
I've thought about it myself but I don't know any books that have the same kind of carefree, nostalgic, otherworldly, charm

They look like SMT demons had sex with Yokai Watch, both better than pokemon

Child litterature has those type of settings. If you speak french, Claude Ponti has a wonderful universe.

The Game of Champions is good, though unfinished and mildly psychotic.
sounds to me like a DIY Book on how to approach human beings in the world and overcome shyness is the thing to find.
