If it was genetic, that means it wouldn't be from an escalating fight of stealing food. A grudge is no more genetically passable than a cut off tail.
...Not that that's either here nor there, but just pointing out.

There was an episode of Pokemon about a Psyduck, it was pampered and treated like a pedigree poodle. The owner forbade it to battle so it ran away. At the end, the owner let it battle and it became happy.
Moral: Pokemon like to battle.

Thats true. Most Pokemon like battling. And like some others and myself have said, Its hard to abuse a Pokemon b/c they will pretty much attack the trainer if needed.

Ah yes, the episode where Machop , Machoke and Machamp were slaves.
That was funny. In a cruel way.

People don't really hate Paul. In fact, most people like him, the same way everyone seems to hate Ash.
As I stated, trainers work to make themselves and their pokemon stronger for pride. Paul's team won't leave until they feel they have become strong enough.
Although both sides in this case are afraid of what may happen if the bond is severed.
And Torterra is Paul's starter, it's not going.
As for Zangoose and Seviper, they just really hate each other I suppose.

Zangoose is based on a mongoose, and seviper is a serpent. It's more of a predator-prey relationship.

You can't really tell if the badges in the show affect the Pokemon in any way. I do believe that the pokeballs only show that the Pokemon is now loyal to the trainer. If pokeballs did brainwash the Pokemon in the show, then the Pokemon's characteristics might change; but they don't so I think pokeballs don't brainwash Pokemon.

Yes, we brought that up.
POKEBALLS DO NOT BRAINWASH POKEMON!
Who the heck invented that idea?
It's the fact that a pokemon (who are prideful creatures) was defeated and caught, that makes it obey you. They trust that someone stronger then them can make them even stronger.
Badges are made of a special metal that is recognized by Pokemon as showing ability in training.
You'll notice that Nidoking and Victreebell were defeated by Red without any Pokemon. That earned their respect, thus their new attitude to Red.

it must be pokemon abuse, making these things battle each other.

Well, I really don't think badges actually do anything, really. They're not known by pokemon in general. However, when one trades a pokemon, they'll try to pick out differences between this new trainer and their old master... well, their old trainer had more badges (a.k.a. shiny).
Also, lol.

Because letting them do what they love is abuse.

Read what's already here. HMs fall into videogame logic, and thus do not count.

Pokeballs don't brainwash us, no. Nor do badges. <_<
