"The sweetness of her voice speaks to Volo's love for her."
Then perhaps he'd like to hear it himself when it matters most.

left it a little open ended because i couldnt decide how exactly this happens:
1) arceus straight up does give him the ability to understand pokemon. it does not consider this either a blessing or a curse. it is simply allowing him to hear what they've been saying this whole time.
2) going off how iris only understands the hearts of dragons as opposed to n's ability to directly translate, maybe understanding pokemon is some sort of hyper-empathy thing. volo gains such a strong connection with his pokemon through fighting god he can actually understand what they feel
3) his guilty conscience catches up with him and he's imagining this just based on what n told him
I had a dream that there was a Pokémon Legends Z-A trailer dropped. to my pure excitement, Volo was back..... and had wings. no explanation. he just did.
I just like the thought of breaking Volo’s brain by telling him about the internet lol Though I imagine that Akari must’ve told him a little about it previously.
