was it ever explained why meowth could talk?
>>56868447Nohttps://files.catbox.moe/yzrquc.webm
>>56868447Yes there’s an episode dedicated to his origin story.
>>56868447Yes. There was an episode in Kanto that went into his origins. He gave up all his move slots for the ability to speak after intense training.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wVbPb6xYUus
>>56868447The girl he likes was attracted to humans and he learned English because he literally wanted pussy
>>56868471Only possible because he had a human parent. Otherwise every 'mon could talk as they all understand human speech
>>56868474https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-JJpE39uYQs>"you'll never be human so just forget about it."
>>56868447He wanted to impress a female Meowth that he liked, so he taught himself how to walk on two legs and talk like a human.
>That time Meowzie appeared in one of Meowth's fantasies in DP, in a harem with a Skitty and a Lopunny
>>56868572thats cool that the animators remembered her
>>56868523>>56868558>>56868572sexo

>>56868485In a recent HZ episode, Roy was able to talk in his Crocalor's body after a malfunctioning Synchro Machine made them switch bodies. Ash was also still able to talk when a magic spell turned him into a PokemonAll Pokemon possess the anatomy needed to speak human language, it's just a matter of knowing how to. Most don't bother to learn, or just "cheat" by using telepathy to talk to humans
>>56868616Yes, something you and everyone who unironically uses the term "sexo" will never experience
>>56868447Because Game Freaks wanted a challenger to Mickey Mouse.
>>56868652>All Pokemon possess the anatomy needed to speak human languageHow can Lilligant talk again, you autistic retard?
>>56868652You seriously expect me to believe that nobody in the Pokemon world can be bothered to teach their Pokemon how to talk?
>>56868558holy sexo
>>56869560When pokemon are already able to understand human speech and trainers can somehow understand them back too despite them doing grunts or saying their name there's little reason to actually teach them how to really speak
>>56868677kek based
>>56869581Did anyone even think that if the Pokemon world was more coherent like Monster Hunter and its "Scientists" they wouldn't be a bunch of worthless, stupid rednecks.They wouldn't rest day or night to find and subsequently study this talking Meowth.The Rocket organization wouldn't go after Pikachu, but after the Meowth of this Duo given how valuable it would be to understand the beasts that Pokemon are.
>>56869708Meowth literally gave up it's Signature Move to be able to speak. Team Rocket doesn't want weak ass Pokemon that do what every human can do. They want Pokemon of insane power and Pikachu repeated beats Ground-types with electric moves.
>>56869805You kind of awnsered my question, but at the same time you don't.I mean, if the Pokemon world was like I just described, a talking Meowth would be the eye of the storm.It's like if someone in our world found a talking Gorilla, the world's organizations would search for it endlessly to study it.
>>56869560NTA- Yes, but also no. The Pokemon world is strange like that. There's no reason why there wouldn't be more (NOT ALL) Pokemon who have learned how to or been taught how to speak a human language even assuming >>56869581 if Meowth could do it at the cost of one to three moveslots there's many Pokemon who'd do that. Nowadays the Pokemon world has Rotom Phones so if they want to have an interpreter for Pokemon its quite literally in their pocket.
>>56869830Pokemon Scientists would want to study Meowth, but Team Rocket would only want to sell them as pets. The mob wouldn't care about a talking dog, but they would care about a dog who can't be killed by bullets and can kill a man in a single bite..
>>56869830There was an ongoing joke in the anime where bystanders would hear Meowth say something and react with "WOW, A TALKING MEOWTH!" but then Meowth would get stage fright and the human onlookers would get bored with him stammering and leave.
>>56868447pretty much how >>56868471 explained it. a bunch of different pokemon have the brain capacity for speech, including meowth. it can be quite heavy for the pokemon, as team rocket's meowth literally only has one attack now; fury swipes.the anime was also working with the 90s bullshit and allowed them to pull the idea out of their ass before the world was properly documented.
>>56869978Ironically, the games have kept random normal Pokemon having the ability to speak, while the anime has basically reserved that for Legendaries only.
>>56868677Keep coping and seething, since you are still here shitposting with such incels. incel.
>>56868523>>56868558LITERALLY made for BHCholy based.
>>56868677does such projecting ease your pain?
>>56868677?I say sexo and had sex earlier tonight
GATO SEXO!!!!!
>>56869933Even them can study them and use that knowledge in their favor to communicate with other Pokemon or have an entire army of voice mimics or something.Among other things they can do.
>>56870202>the games have kept random normal Pokemon having the ability to speakWhich ones? Besides Chatot and Squawkabilly.
>>56869942They think it was a Parrot... Or even worse, a Domestic talking Animal is something common.
>>56872276Copycat's Doduo, Marowak's ghost, the password Murkrow Team Rocket had, the Zororak that gives you the TM for Snarl, the Pokedex Rotoms, Mimikyu, the Oranguru that works at the Konikoni Apparel shop, and the Honedge that's in the hotel in Wyndon. Not to mention Darkai (though that may have been just a dream power it has), Calyrex, and Latias. If Legends Arceus is taken as canon, then all then both Sinnon Legerdary Trios and Arceus can use telepathy.
>>56868677What do you have against Latinx?
>>56872268Were Team Rocket actually trying to take over the world in RBY? I know that's their goal NOW, but in the Gen 1 games, they seemed very specifically just The Mob.
The talking Slowking in the second movie (and his terrible puns) were so notable that it became Slowking's signature move: Chilly Reception.>The user tells a chillingly bad joke before switching places with a party Pokémon in waiting. This summons a snowstorm lasting five turns.This implies that all Slowking are capable of talking.
>>56873825If they were like the Pokémon world I mentioned before, more like Monster Hunter and with people who weren't a bunch of dumbasses.
>>56872099Fapping your micropenis to animals is not having sex but ok
>>56873904Monster Hunter's whole setting is that dinosaurs and megafauna never died out, though. It's suppose to be 60% realistic. Pokemon is 100% "what if Japan was full of wacky supernatural battle creatures that don't die when they're hit with explosions, laser beams, and blunt hits from several tons of force?"
>>56873876Slowking are supposed to be as smart as award-winning scientists, so it would be weirder if they couldn't.
>>56868447Self-imposed training, can't remember the episode.Back then he was a total simp for Giovanni, but since he already had a persian Meowth knew he needed to bring something impressive to the table to be even considered for Giovanni's team.So he forced himself to train on how to make human sounds, which fucked up his vocal chords beyond recovery.In the end Giovanni wasn't really impressed.
>>56874089Something more Like Pokemon Reborn.https://youtu.be/JMTQ_MVru3o?si=QG7sXHWbfHB8nheB
>>56868591DP had a LOT of random callbacks to season 1.>the tickle machine from the banned Dratini episode randomly gets used again>James' fiance returns out of nowhere>Ash still has the Thunderstone he got in Lt Surge episode>there's a very meta episode where Team Rocket remember they were uncharacteristically threatening in their first appearance, so they decide they have to return to basics and re-do that plan (and they bring back Team Rocket's Rockin' for the climax)
>>56868635They weren't even trans. iirc they were Intersex as in they were literally born with fucked up genitals.
>>56874928It's less a "LOT" but more that DP was the real last time the show had continuity with OS and AG.>inb4 SM and JourneysThose cameos felt more like they were being done for the sake of it and didn't resemble the original regions they visited. Same thing as Battle Frontier where you can only assume they set it in Kanto instead of Sevii was because Hoenn's last quarter of eps were all island hopping.
