Well, it would certainly explain why all these animals need trainers. Just like Doug they get fantastic superpowers, but only when other
people call out certain codephrases. So a Street Sam Pikachu is just an above-average intlligence rat until someone starts yelling
"Thunderbolt" at it.
It would also explain why the trainer needs to get good. He has to be able to read his partner well enough to know not only when its tactical prudent to use
his superpowers, but also when the partner is able to do so. Yelling "thunderbolt" while your partner is getting punched in the face may be a
fraction of a second to slow (or too fast) to make a difference in the fight!
God damn you, now I want to play this...
