How much coffee is too much coffee for a pokemon?
Asking for a friend.

I'm going to say it wouldn't take a lot to be too much. Sure, they're not normal animals, but they're still pretty much animals.

And I'm pretty sure you're in trouble here. Is your Pokemon okay?

I’m not too sure about Pokemon, but I know back home caffeine is toxic to most animals.

How much coffee has it had?

An accurate measurement would depend on the pokemon's body size compared with the rate of ingestion.

You gave your Pokémon coffee? Why?

[amaure]

If we consider the fact that these beasts are magical, something as mundane as coffee is not like to cause aught but indigestion. Perhaps a spell of hyperactivity.

Though, I do suppose what Pokémon you fed coffee too also matters, I cannot imagine something like a Cutiefly would handle it well.

Now, I don't know what the caffeine limit would be for Pokémon, but I do know that the limit for an average adult human would be approximately five to ten grams. Which, if you are ingesting it purely through coffee or tea, it would be a rather impressive feat to reach such levels.

I do hope this helps answer your question, at least somewhat.

Oh, my boyfriend is a coffee expert! He would know.
But he's out right now.
If I were to warrant a guess, it probably depends on their size and how much they drank.

[Okay but they DO make mocha-flavored Poké Puffs, and Poké Beans are used to make coffee, not to mention Café ReMix's offerings. Still, Allura is alarmed, not just at the concept of PokéPoison Control, but at any of Riz's team being THAT hyper.]

What Pokémon and how much?

How... much did you give it?

I wouldn't be terribly concerned. Mine occasionally take tea with me. If it were detrimental to them, I would have stopped long ago.

I think it might depend on the species.
What happened?

[islandshore]

[Uh oh. Seems someone's hijacked Riku's 'gear just for the occasion.]

If you want my humble opinion, as a Pokémon, it is the same as you humans. Everything in moderation! Honestly, it's very kind of you to permit your Pokémon to enjoy "human" beverages. Too many are quick to dismiss us as pets, when we're actually quite sophisticjkhhakjsf

[Uh oh. Technical difficulty. Please stand by.]

...This is what I get for leaving it at the reception desk, huh?

Anyway... How much coffee are we talking here? And is the issue that the Pokémon's sick, or are they just on a big caffeine buzz?

action, because I do what I want

C'mon, give it here. I'll bring you some water afterwards.
