>>54458628>No dumb chatterZoroark canonically has been able to communicate in game, and Meowth shows its possible in anime WAY earlier than Zoroark.
This means that at least ONE Pokemon species can learn to talk(Zoroark,) with presumably others able to learn as well. I'd honestly place my bets Ninetales could learn how to talk, considering they're explicitly pointed out as being intelligent enough to discern human speech.
>No super high intelligenceThis is kind of a problem, especially depending on which side of the Pokemon debate you are on. Most Pokemon(according to gen 1) wouldn't have more intelligence than a border collie. Trainable, but not really office material.
Besides, wouldn't it be nice to have a perfect schedule 24/7? A Pokemon like Metagross or Xatu could presumably construct one for you.
>Can change body shapeZoroarks make physical illusions. However, if we remove that element from them...
You got me on the body thing though, not many Pokemon have a good layout for human tasks. Maybe if they made into cyborgs or something, it could work...
