In the anime, Pokémon are shown to be creatures with distinctively more anthropomorphic qualities than normal animals, with several even [[talking Pokémon|able to speak]]. Some Pokémon have the ability to speak the dubbing language instead of their own names, such as {{MTR}} of {{TRT}}. They also seem to be able to mostly understand [[human]] language, while most humans can't understand Pokémon | In the anime, Pokémon are shown to be creatures with distinctively more anthropomorphic qualities than normal animals, with several even [[talking Pokémon|able to speak]]. Some Pokémon have the ability to speak the dubbing language instead of their own names, such as {{MTR}} of {{TRT}}. They also seem to be able to mostly understand [[human]] language, while most humans can't understand Pokémon speech, although there are a few who claim they can. Most species speak only one word: their own name, e.g. Pikachu saying "Pika! Pikachu!" and so forth. | ||
