>Dialga & PalkiaThey snarled, hissed, gronked, and screeched in their introductory generation. This is a silly retcon.
>ZoroarkStill can’t understand nor speak human languages unless it mimics a human. But, you don’t want to diddle something that looks human, you want an animal, and since Zoroark can’t talk in its normal form, it can’t consent.
>MarowakOk? What does that have to do with anything?
>Stone’s translation devicewow… I didn’t know… animals had their own way of communication… and this entire time, I thought dogs and cats had their own way exactly same body language…. mind = blown
>Telepathdoesn’t mean anything if it can’t speak with you.
>CalyrexKing Calyrex (pbuh) was chosen by Lord Arceus, of course he’s the only Pokemon who can speak.

not fucking canon either
PMD is a spin-off series and isn’t not representative of the main line. If Pokemon actually formed communities like that, I will actually concede, but until they do, Pokemon aren’t sapient nor intelligent enough to form communities and civilizations.
>>56775134Zoroark’s special (failed) shillmon magic allows it to do both, bro. That ceases to be when it reverts to human form.
Crows can use sticks to get things out of tight space, and are smart enough to use rocks to raise water levels, but they’re not sapient. There will always be social structures in the wild, we see it in lions and wolves and such, but they’re not sapient either. Pokemon, being fantasy animals, will always be smarter than real life animals, but it doesn’t matter when they fulfill the roles of animals in the Pokemon world’s ecosystem.
