Zanco Posted January 4, 2012 Report Share Posted January 4, 2012 I don't know about you guys but I grew up with pokemon and I've always loved the first few seasons (until May left, every thing before that) and I recently realized that pretty much none of the current generation people growing up with pokemon even know why Meoth from team rocket can talk. So tell me, do you guys know why can he talk, do you not know, do you have an idea why, do you think this is stupid and want to go click on another thread? Well I wanna know, so tell me what you think about the subject. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Changgun Posted January 4, 2012 Report Share Posted January 4, 2012 That's a good question, and it's because when Meowth was born he was taken away from his family and raised by humans there for adopting the human language . xD that's my guess anyways.

wyattearp23 Posted January 4, 2012 Report Share Posted January 4, 2012 Not sure but if my memory is correct meowth learned to talk to impress rich meowth because she didn't like street rats. He thought if he learned to talk that would impress her thinking he be safisticated. He lived in the attic at a school and started to do the speech lessons that the kids were doing. He had found some practice books in the attic and learned from there. But in the end the rich meowth didn't appreciated it and called him a freak. If I remeber right.

Zanco Posted January 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2012 Eheh, good guess. It's not actually far off from the truth. See what happened is that he fell in love with a high-classed female Meowth and him being a street Meowth she was always rejecting him. So he went out of his way to impress her and still nothing. Then he toke it to the extreme and taught himself to walk and ease dropped on a tong twister class in a community center until he gained the ability to speak language, and not just meowth language. But alas she still rejected him, then he went in a rut and was found by team rocket. That's what I remember from when I was a kid, and still know now. : ] Some little details might be off but that's alright.---------- Post added at 02:06 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:04 AM ----------Oh well yeah, what wyattearp23 said.

wyattearp23 Posted January 4, 2012 Report Share Posted January 4, 2012 I was going by memory too Zanco, I might be a bit off as well. Although between the two of us I think he will find his answer. Hopefully. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xanodus Posted January 4, 2012 Report Share Posted January 4, 2012 He met another Meowth on the street (i think her name was Meowzy) and he instantly fell in love with her. But she didn't like him because he was from the street. So to impress her he learned how to walk on two legs and talk like a human Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are deprived D: GO! GO FIND A WORKING VHS PLAYER! NAO! I own the first six episodes on VHS, and the rest of the original first season I have in the back of my mind. There was a whole episode dedicated to Meowth's past prior to his acceptance of Giovanni and inclusion with Jesse & James; there was also an episode where Jame's background is explored (If you haven't already known that James comes from a rich family, I forget about Jesse's background).

AxelVIII Posted February 18, 2012 Report Share Posted February 18, 2012 I don't remember exactly why he learned to talk, but what I do remember is that it was to impress a female Meowth by speaking the language of humans. He listened in on conversations, he listened to audio tapes, and he even read just to learn how to speak, and got shot down by the female Meowth, despite his hard work.

Anon316 Posted February 26, 2012 Report Share Posted February 26, 2012 What wyattearp23 and Zanco said is correctI believe it was also stated in the Orange Islands by Jessie and James, that Meowth cant learn anymore pokemon attacks because of this....In the episode where the Islands people were trying to make Meowth use Payday.
