On the island, you have the large open fields where some creatures graze, but they're not that packed. You can usually travel the area around Verens without any trouble. The towns closer to the mountains have the most trouble because that's where the stronger creatures live, and sometimes something brings them out. The forest near Verens has some stronger creatures they label monsters, but they live deeper in.
In my world it's similar, but not really. We're...closer. [ He even brings his hands in, like a ball. ] I walked to the second city near my town in five days, and the roads and woods were packed with pokémon. But most of the pokémon I bumped into along the way are like the animals people know here: rats, giga bugs, pigeons...
[ His brows furrow for a moment. ]
... I don't know what some of them can be as animals. Anyway, [ since it's not that important, ] the creatures you'd compare to wolves or bears are in the parts of the wild most people wouldn't need to go through. You're not going to get attacked every five seconds. Just if you're unlucky, and get spotted by a group of feisty rattatas.
I guess we're at a more advanced state of a place like this, but with a better understanding of the creatures we live with, and better methods of dealing with them... Because we want them to be a part of our lives. Not to be divided.
... a world like that-- to me, it's sad to think about.
