From day one Ikue Ōtani as the voice of Pikachu got a written script which she'd then "pikachuify", use the meter and tone of her script to inform her squeakings of Pikachu (Pika-Pi - Satoshi, Pi-Pi-Pi - Togepi, Pikachu-Pi - Kasumi, etc). Coupled with the fact every so often the anime runs a pokémon-only episode and gives them subtitles, (clearly showing the vocalisations of the various creatures actually have significance behind them and they're not just vocalising like dumb animals looking for mates or guarding territory).
And then they'll have the temerity to throw up shudo or something, ignoring he was the cunt who started the whole "pokémon only subtitled episode" shtick as he was told enough by the youngsters at Game Freak how he should present their work to make it stick.
