The Rainbow Rocket Syndicate of The Pokemon Dystopia is a gargantuan, orderly nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 14.633 billion grunts enjoy great individual freedoms in everything except elections, which, where they exist at all, are populist shams for a dictatorship government that has no intention of ever giving up power.

The minute, pro-business, well-organized government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.7%.

The strong dystopian economy, worth 972 trillion Pokémons a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with significant contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Arms Manufacturing, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is 66,463 Pokémons, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 428,365 per year while the poor average 4,166, a ratio of 102 to 1.

Crime is a problem. The Pokemon Dystopia's national animal is the Persian, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

The Pokemon Dystopia is ranked 256,617th in the world and 7th in The Geometrix for Lowest Crime Rates, with 48.38 law-abiding acts per hour.
