Individual Breakdown:
Pokemon are not recognized as citizens. As many in the millitary sector of Saphron City know, Jesse and James are mere puppet dictators who, though theoretically, could have the power to control the entire nation, leave most of their decisions up to Giovanni who they still have problems referring to as "Boss". Seeing as millitary is compulsory, most people know this fact about their nation. Still, Jesse and James get some liberal things passed where Giovanni might have dismissed the issue all together; see their public nudity laws, or rather, lack thereof.
