1) In case I wasn't clear enough in the last edition of the Gazette, here's what's been decided regarding pokemon speaking.
- Psychics may communicate telepathically
- Your starter pokemon - AND THIS POKEMON ONLY - is capable of speech
This has been added to The Guide:
And this to the Q & A:
In answer to the question: what, so my character never realized their pokemon could speak, and it just suddenly happened out of nowhere?
Just don't over think it. Pretend the pokemon has always been able to speak. I don't think anyone's too far into the RP for that to be too hard to do.
2) I never got around to the activity check as I ended up going on a trip where the internet was absolutely horrendous, against what I'd predicted. So again:
please login with accounts that you do not wish to have deleted by tomorrow, April 8th.
Thank you.

This has been added to The Guide:
Starter Pokemon: When you go to get your starter pokemon, you'll be asked what type your character wants. Once given, the professor will provide you with several options. Then, you chose. Each starter pokemon is given to you in a special pokeball, made with extremely minute traces of soil from where the great meteorite struck. This special substance grants your stater pokemon a unique ability: the power of speech. Your starter pokemon - AND ONLY YOUR STARTER - may speak.
And this to the Q & A:
Q: Can pokemon speak?
A: A character's first pokemon - their starter pokemon - is capable of speech. The pokeballs these pokemon were stored in from birth are made with minute traces of soil from around where the meteor sits in Lunar City, granting them the unique ability of speech. If, however, you DO NOT want your pokemon to be able to speak, you need only assert that they were never put into one of these special pokeballs. NO other pokemon - with the exception of psychics, who can communicate telepathically - are capable of speech.
