Every so often, my neighborhood becomes swarmed with some bugs, and at times, a few even make it into my house. A lot of them are of the little sort (fortunately), and while they mostly don't pose bodily harm, they can be quite annoying to deal with, never mind by just being present. Yet they're also a reminder - for me - that some Pokémon species are little bugs of their own and present their own challenges, like the bugs I deal with.
Most recently, the little bugs are (were) of the sort of Wurmple and Caterpie, which being the wormlike caterpillars that they are, could make them regarded as slightly "icky" under certain circumstances. The Pokémon species are likely friendly even with their resemblance, though the real ones aren't necessarily so. It may take a quite a bit of nerve to become emotionally attached to them or to just deal with them as necessary.
Then, there are the little bugs of the sort of Joltik and Spinarak, two spider-like little bugs. Having them appear in places can certainly give some people the creeps, even the ones that are Pokémon species, never mind the real ones. The Electric and Poison capabilities of the former doesn't help matters much either in dealing with them, as analogs to what the real bugs can do. There is a certain "handle with care" quality that goes with them.
As much as some people (including me) would prefer not to have to deal with little bugs like those of the above sort, both the realistic and Pokémon ones, admittedly they give their own colors to some situations of life. And they'll always be present for their purposes if the people let them be. With that, it seems I'll keep dealing with swarms of bugs as best as I could, hopefully preferring that they'd be Pokémon ones.
