no, you are jsut being fucking stupid. you use something that people would see as evil for the greater good" and most people know that such is often never good at all.
you basically could have just said you wanted to be Hitler and saying his actions would be good had they been in the interest of world hunger.
you are just fucking stupid.
you obviously cannot tell right form wrong.
also you have to look at it in context of the game world, not the real work. did Kar Drago perform evil acts by killing upstarts? not to the eyes of his people. neither was it good, nor evil. it jsut was.
you simply have to either play real world ideals, or enter the game world and leave real world views behind.
doesn't mean the game will always be PC, but it will be consistent with a world view or culture view.
also is euthanasia good or evil? Dr Kavorkian was jailed for doing jsut that to humans, but vets do it to animals all the time. so is it good or not?
is it ok for one species to kill another, yet they cannot kill themselves to end pains?
YOU have to decide the world view and culture view of the game, and go from there. this is why the 9 alignments don't work, because they assume Gary's view or the DMs view, and you need the game's view.
it really is simple. Pokemon are enslaved to fight each other. this is a GOOD thing in that world. many children at taught this and allowed to think this. why not, they are basically pets right? but is enslaving ANYTHING good?
you must stay in context and msut be capable of seeing context which is not the real world.
you however, cannot.
