Ladies and gentlemen, let's not forget a certain Pokedex entry that mentioned our friend the Indian Elephant =D

That's from the anime, though, not the games. The games never give a complete picture, but the pieces they do give fit too well with what exist in real-life locations for it to be a coincidence. http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Pok%C3%A9mon_world_in_relation_to_the_real_world

Well if you look at the larger map of the Pokemon areas they are all (mostly?) on the Japanese mainland so while they rarely mention the rest of the world, it's not like it doesn't exist in the Pokemon universe.

The Pokemon world map doesn't exactly leave much in the way of 'Real World' locations. http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/b/b6/Unova_world_map.png

Going along with that, wasn't it mentioned somewhere that Mew was spotted in South America?

There used to be normal animals, but they've been retconned out. Sometimes I get confused on the Pokedex entires...because Paras (or Parasect's?) entry mentioned China, and I don't think China exists in the Pokeverse either..

I assume there ARE normal animals, just very few...i mean how could pikachu be the electric mouse-type pokemon if mice don't exist? Same goes for tiny turtle(squirtle) and so on.

There ARE normal mice. They're called Rattata. But really, I've never seen a 'regular' animal in any pokemon episode I've ever seen, because having both just seems silly. The reason why they don't mention eating them because they're pretty much all domesticated and integrated in society. Having a kid talk and play with his Charmander while eating a roasted one is awkward, don't you agree?

Plus (as I recall) in the Japanese pokedex entry for Farfetched, one of the first thing's mentioned is how tasty it is.
On a side note with regards to the pokeverse food supply. it makes the episode with the Miltank dairly farm a little odd. Ash makes remarks as to how much tastier Miltank milk is that waht he is used to. In the Pokeverse, isn't ALL the milk (well the "cow" milk) Miltank milk?

They never point it out in the show, but it's common sense. When Ash is eating hamburgers, who's the only cow in the pokeverse?

Oh god...when I read that and the other myths in the library in Pokemon Diamond I got so freaked out, because those were SERIOUSLY mature and WAY too complicated for children to read, which is bad because the games are intended for children.
