The intelligence of pokemon
10 years ago
I like to think that pokemon in general, well most of them but not all, are probably a lot more intelligent than they are made out to be in the games and anime. The anime portrays them as being more intelligent than in the games but I like to think of them as more like how they are in the Mystery Dungeon series to some extent.
This would apply mostly to those living in the forests, mountains or extreme wild territories as well as legendaries. Many wild areas could be so deep that hardly any humans have encountered them and these are where pokemon have probably had time to develop rich communities where different species of pokemon reside in.
I believe the Mystery Dungeon series could exist within the main series universe although in areas what are blocked off from humans. I think pokemon do in fact talk like they do in Mystery Dungeon but it is only humans who cannot hear it. They instead hear them say their names apart from a lucky few who have been blessed with the gift of understanding pokemon from Arceus himself.
These highly intelligent pokemon mostly look out for one another and will expel those who betray their trust. Most pokemon are aware of humans but do not like them much so will do whatever they can to deter them. If they have to, they will not hesitate to capture any wandering human. If the human is too dangerous, the pokemon will kill them.
Like with people however, there are good pokemon and bad pokemon all by their own free will. Pokemon are not bad to the point of how certain people are like Team Rocket or Team Galactic but I think pokemon do still commit bad things by choice such as steal, lie, trick, kidnap or even kill particularly against humans. But no taking over the world or anything like that. It is people like Team Rocket who are the usual targets for pokemon to act against.
There is no such thing as a 4 move limit like the games and to some extent now, the anime claims. The word move is a bit ambiguous in fact. Pokemon can have as many moves as their bodies take, particularly those what are physical moves where they can learn many different attacks. Tackle is the most basic attack any pokemon should learn and all pokemon should be able to learn Tackle. It is probably the first move they are taught by each other or their parents. Special moves are different and varies depending on what elemental type a certain pokemon is.
Pokemon can also be very organised also and be able to plan things very well and be able to work together at various things.
