Why is meowth is the only talking pokemon?

:wink:

Iā€™m stupid for knowing this, but Mewtwo also talks (telepathically). Maybe they like cat pokemon.

because thats how the makers of pokemon wanted it, watch the episodes to see how he learned to talk.

im sure it will be lots of fun for someone like you.

Imagination and Fiction.

Meowth is just gifted. Not all the Meowths talk either. I believe there was an episode in which they showed other Meowths that just said ā€œmeowth!ā€

So I guess itā€™s arbitrary. Heā€™s just a comic relief. Any especially gifted Pokemon could talk, itā€™s just that Meowth is one of those rare ones that can.

that sucks.

the only pokemon who can talk has a lisp.

Thereā€™s actually an episode, from way back in the second season, regarding this.

Meowth was trying to gain the interest of a Persian, who only cared for her master. Thus, he took steps and great pains to learn the human language, to woe her and make her love him.

However, upon completing this task, she treated him as a freak, which led to him becoming a part of Team Rocket.

ā€¦Gods, I canā€™t believe I remember this shit.

Kind of like Goofy can talk and wear clothes but, Pluto canā€™t. Mickey owns Pluto and Goofy is Mickeyā€™s friend.

What sort of message does that send to young minds? None. Did not even occur to me till I was in my teens when it was brought up by a friend. Then I asked other friends if they ever thought about it, none ever did.

A controversy was made over it some years back. Brought that stray memory back into focus, now this little thread reminded me again. LOL Pluto is still owned by Mickey who is friends with Goofy.

Bah, what does that teach children? Simple:

BDSM still lives, and thrives.

Donā€™t worry, at least youā€™re not alone, I remember that as well.

The way of artists making one pokemon talk is simply unjust.

Either the intention were to make it realistic as possible, or it is simple a mascot uniform like Barney.

This particular pokemon learned to speak with humans, that means any of them could potentially do it, theyā€™d just have to have the desire to do so. Also, there is a new show that gets rid of the humans and justs and the pokemon, who can communicate with each other.

Man, now I feel like a totally dork.

What are pokemans supposed to be, anyway? Are they generalized little animals or a species unto themselves?

Pika?

Pika-BEā€¦

It seems that they are animals, so when every you see the characters eating meat, it must be made of pokemon. So, that a little unsettling, cause I have never seen an animal besides them.

I dislike pokemon, I dislike anime, I dislike the crazed fanatics, the wild Japanese style, the perfect little colorful and social life of the Japanese, the little thingamajigs they draw, the itty bitty sounds they make, the magical powers, the kiddie money sucking sales techniques used to build their atomic bombs, the clones that roam their streets, the brisk and cheerful accent, and the term ā€œMeepoā€. That is all.

You should watch Paranoia Agent, it really doesnā€™t have a whole lot of the above description, it weird, and creepy, I love it.

Good try, anyways. Hehehe. Anime can stay in Japan. Itā€™s too bright and cute.
