Lapras' FireRed Pokedex Entry:
Its high intelligence enables it to understand human speech. It likes to ferry people on its back.
I thought all Pokemon could at least understand human speech. In the anime, wheneevr the characters talk to their Pokemon, even if they're just ordering an attack, wouldn't the Pokemon need to know human speech to know what they're asking?
Same in the games, especially in HG/SS, since you can talk to your Pokemon.
