Idk. Pokmon is dumb. Psyduck has psy in the name and its whole shtick is having untapped psychic power but it's not psychic.

Maybe it's high off the Shellder poison.

Slowing becomes smart enough to talk to humans, as well as have the Shellder reshape into a stylish hat.

Blame the guy who was responsible for the localization of gens 1-3. Growlithe can't learn growl. But in Japanese his name is Gardie so basically just Guard or even Guard Dog. Magikarp can use splash but so can Hoppip? Oh right, in the Japanese games the name of the attack translates to hop. Let's not even get into how Pidgey isn't a pigeon and we got Pidove in gen 5. Female Mr. Mime. The guy who localized the first few games was a hack in hindsight.

Because the original trade was your Kadabra for their Graveler.

Yeah, I think he's full of bologna about Psyduck. As bet I can find Japanese Pokedex entries, they also talk about it having "mysterious powers."

Slowpoke is smart as fuck.

Not many things smarter than setting low expectations and chilling all day.
