I think what's happening here is that one person bought two cartridges (both black and white versions, presumably, so that they can trade to themself), and is playing with two DSes in order to play the co-op mode by themself.
I think this plays on this one:

In other words, the player/Mei has no friends, so they can only play co-op by pretending to be two people.
Anyway, if anything, I guess S-Leaf isn't too good at keeping Pokémon, and Dawn seems a little naive. Kris hardly gets enough time to get even a guess.
They don't appear as much, but Hikari hates Kengo - post #728012
Blue/Leaf keeps accidentally murdering her own pokemon, especially earth-type pokemon, with things like dish soap or a watering can - post #585616
Anyway, as for why Mei is like this, maybe it's a commentary on how less people actually carry a pokemon game around and it's getting harder and harder to actually play all these multiplayer features. I know I sure haven't played Pokemon since first gen...

This is one of the big reasons we need a 3DS-native entry. StreetPass is much more passive and versatile than putting the cart in standby. But, then, maybe those new e-Shop entries will emulate that functionality.
I predict a future 4koma involving Mei attending an on-site Pokémon distribution and being surrounded by grade schoolers.
