Yeah you're pretty much right. The thing is, nobody complains or has these sort of discussions about Mario because it's obviously ridiculous and doesn't try to make sense (walking mushrooms, a plumber that squishes stuff by jumping on it, floating bricks that produce coins when hit). Pokemon made a whole world of itself, that tries to be and is basically our world with the addition of Pokemon. And since (mostly) everything else makes sense (people have jobs, watch TV, etc), we feel that Pokemon are completely out of place since they make no sense if you think about it this deeply. Which I'm OK with because, as you said, it's a game (and anime and manga).
What I find so funny is that this entire discussion was sparked because of Chespin's design
