>>36939821Just as you said that, I found pic related. To add onto that, that's not counting the people who've been with their pokémon for so long who just understand them. N is an extreme example in-game, being raised among pokémon almost exclusively thus understanding all, but even Ash and Mina in the anime are shown to be able to understand their partner's vocalisations (Ash telling Poipole, Pikachu said its messing around was ticklish and Mina being able to tell everyone what Ribombee was feeling from others). There was that old surfer dude from the OG run too and his Pikachu. People and pokémon can learn to communicate, just as they travel, grow and spend time together.
