Some Pokemon are naturally gifted with the ability to discern the emotions of others; these Pokemon are known as “Empaths”. This is a separate ability from “being empathetic”, which is a personality trait, in that empaths are able to sense the emotions of other humans and Pokemon. It is also different from telepathy in that it cannot communicate telepathically with the person it is using its empath powers on. Empaths are also able to share their emotions with others.
More specifically, they can sense the emotions that “radiate” off of others. What this means is that the more the “target” suppresses their emotions, the less the empath can pick up. Somebody skipping down the road singing happily is going to be radiating the full extent of their joy, while the individual burying their rage and hatred of their boss to avoid being fired from their job is going to come off as somewhat frustrated instead of incandescent. The clarity and range of this can vary significantly from Pokemon to Pokemon.
For ease of clarifications, empaths are split into two categories: low-tier empaths and high-tier empaths. Low-tier empaths can sense the emotions of others and share their own, but only while physically in contact with the person they’re using their empathy with. High-tier empaths can sense and share emotions around them at a modest distance (a 5 block radius). Both low-tier and high-tier empaths can only sense and share the emotions of one person at a time, with their focus specifically on them.
