The easy chat system is a method of inputting personal messages for passwords, interviews or Mail in the Generation III and Generation IV games.
Generation III
The easy chat system was introduced in this generation. It allowed the game to process inputs that were more personal than the typical yes/no choices of Generations I and II.
Trendy phrase
In Dewford Hall, Various NPC's will be discussing whatever is "trendy" around Hoenn. By telling them about a new two-word phrase, they might start discussing your trendy phrase instead. Far from being purely a cosmetic change, this phrase determines the six tiles of the river on Route 119 in which Feebas can be found. Additionally, when players mix records, one player's trendy phrase might catch on in the other player's game, allowing players to synchronize their efforts to find the elusive Pokémon.
Gabby and Ty
Throughout Hoenn, the player can encounter and battle Interviewers Gabby & Ty in various locations. Following a battle, Gabby and Ty will engage the player in an interview, asking for one word to sum up the experience. This battle and interview will be broadcasted and discussed on televisions throughout the region. Other players might see this interview on TV on their own games if you have mixed records with them since it was given.
In the Generation III games, mail messages were composed using the easy chat system, rather than by inputting text manually as was done in the Generation II games. The player could compose a message using up to nine words or phrases.
Generation IV
The easy chat system was brought over to Generation IV games as well. Additionally, with the advent of region-free trading via wireless connection or Wi-Fi, easy chat became much more useful-- now mail and other messages would be readable in games of any language, since the game would translate each word to its nearest equivalent.
Interviews
Throughout the Sinnoh region, various interviewers could be found. When approached, they would ask you questions either regarding recent actions (for instance, winning or losing a Super Contest) or general opinions.
