Well, consider: we house and feed them. We provide them with top-notch medical care deemed so important that is is completely free and special provisions are made to place Pokémon Centers such that one is never far away.

We make it far easier to propagate their species, carrying them great distances to new environments and facilitating breeding between pairs that produce ludicrously strong offspring. We teach them techniques it would be impossible for them to learn in the wild, further strengthening them and their descendants. Not only that but we facilitate the process of gathering experience, allowing them to master moves at a faster pace, evolve more quickly, and reach a level of strength it would be much more difficult for them to achieve without human intervention. While the lives of trainers are enriched by their Pokémon companions, it is less that humans use Pokémon for battling and more that humans and Pokémon are both benefited by battling for different reasons and thus have entered into an equitable partnership that has made it a central activity to society at large. If you truly examine it, all humans truly gain is friends and a hobby.
