[Scar's been lying low in Olivine ever since the hurricane, and he's starting to go a little stir-crazy. Being left bored with his thoughts can only end in one thing. Anon questions.]

In my time here, I have come to find that there are a great many "worlds" that are home to people who wouldn't be considered human, but experience the same depth of thought and range of emotion.

[Even he can make that conclusion, now.]

In that case, what is humanity? A measure of physical traits? A state of mind? Something into which one must be born?

They are eerily similar to people, in many ways.

It's weird. I mean, I guess it's not too weird after meeting a former pony, but I think the fact that most Pokémon can't speak makes it easy to overlook just how smart they really are. Guess that ties back to the whole humanity thing, too. I think we like to think of ourselves as special, and that's not always a good thing.
