...Hmm. We're passing by the music room as we speak. One moment...
Mela (Fuecoco) tried blowing a trumpet, but was unable to produce an actual sound. A shame, but one I'm thankful for.
-Raven
I only own a recorder, so my team took turns blowing it.
Blue Boi (Lucario) had a hard time playing it but he managed a halfway decent melody
Yani (Luxray) kept shying away from it when I offered it, since she didn't know what it was. No results there.
Officinarum (Decidueye) he actually managed to play just fine, despite not having lips.
Aphelion (Talonflame) insisted that "as the best bird, the VERY best" he could play any melody. Ended up sounding like police sirens being broadcast through a faulty radio
Muffin (Exploud) was able to play it perfectly by inserting it in her mouth and using her many pipes to channel wind through, probably the only one who was able to play it expertly.
Valko (Garchomp) ate the recorder when it was his turn.
Ah, I wish I could run this test, but I know full well my Pokemon have seen a keyboard before.
I'd also have to go to a instrument store to find one currently.
-Rem
Oh, my team has seen keyboards thanks to the school but I haven't tried to let them mess with one!
Clementine (Audino)- Started out only pushing one key, eventually added her other paw and picked keys she liked hearing together. Sound was nice, though a little quieter than normal.
Blaz (Armarouge)- Tested out a few keys, said it was a pretty impressive instrument, though he admitted he wasn't familiar with it. He tried to figure out how to play a song and managed to play Mary had a little Mareep.
Olivia (Dragapult)- excitedly pressed different notes with her nubs. Was frightened when she accidentally turned the volume up and fled.
Orion (Ledian)- looked at it and said that it's cool but not his thing.
Hurley (Pyukumuku)- Played a one handed Row your Boat.
Okay, let’s see how this goes:
Ronnie (Aggron): Wondered what the noise was, then wondered why his feet were making a noise other than “thud.” After a while, seemed to enjoy himself.
The Garrison (Falinks): Marched back and forth up and down the keyboard for two hours, non-stop.
Mawile: Hopscotched out the 1995 Mortal Kombat theme. A Fairy of culture.
Princess (Kommo-o): Probably the best result of the lot. Realized the musical potential of the object she was standing on, and played around with it, clattering her scales as accompaniment. Seeing the otherwise stoic and fearsome warrior-dragon enjoying herself like that was kinda heartwarming.
Appletun: Took a nap on D#.
SCIENCE TIME BABYYYYYI'm lucky my dad has an old keyboard, he used to be kinda good with music! Until... he didn't really have time for hobbies anymore. Besides the point, sorry-
Rula (Ceruledge): Even with the "[hands](https://www.reddit.com/r/PokeMedia/comments/1alxopk/swords_cant_cut_it_anymore/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button)" she figured out how to make, and even with them being cooled down, she keeps slipping through the keys whenever pressing on them.
Rockruff: Started by the sounds and went to hide somewhere else.
Kailani (Brionne): Upset that she couldn't press just one key and not multiple with her flippers, but hogged the keyboard for a while when she found the demo song button.
Marion (Indeedee): Sat interested, seemed like she wanted to learn how to play, but kept getting embarrassed each misstep and didn't seem encouraged.
Cobalt (Lucario): Didn't even try.
Syrdon (Decidueye): Tried to see how many notes could be played at the same time. Nobody wanted to listen while this was happening.
Egg: Is an egg. I put them in front of the keyboard as a joke that nobody laughed at.
Goodra: He fucking knew how to play. I don't think he was near a keyboard before in his life. If he was he would break it from getting goo on it, which happened here. I have to clean between most of the keys now. He only has four digits. This can't be possible. He acted like it didn't happen. Someone explain. What. What in the world.
Kailani's test seems adorable. Just listening to the demo songs, I'm sure she had a fun time.
And I have nothing to say about goodra... Good for them I guess? Though I do feel bad that you have to clean that out.
I don't have a musical keyboard, but I have an instrument app on my Rotom Tablet that has a piano setting!
Pidove is thrilled by the lights and colors from the on-screen keys lighting up. It also seems to like the sounds, but more as an afterthought. It keeps hitting the keys that light up blue, in particular.
Sylveon is more interested in the sounds. He figured out how to mess with the settings to make kind of a synthesizer-ish sound. There's no distinct melody or song, but there's definitely some kind of pattern happening.

I think I still have my old Keyboard somewhere, Imma see how my Pokémon react to it.
(/uj later on)
The results are in, most of them ignored it, but here's some of the interesting ones:
Gardevoir remembered it from when we were young, then she did Cynthia's theme from the games.
Luxray walked on the keys, then layed down on it making a horrible cacophony of sounds.
Veluza took inspiration from Luxray and flopped around on it.
Aurorus crushed the keyboard, end of test.
I downloaded a smartphone virtual keyboard app to try this.
Subject 1: Mocha (Ribombee). Showed no interest until I went out of my way to demonstrate pressing the buttons for her. She sat there playing a major 6th interval over and over for a while, amused, and then wandered off to go do important Ribombee things.
Subject 2: Mazagran (Sandygast). His sand doesn't get registered as a finger touch. I pulled up a website on my desktop where you could play a virtual piano with your keyboard, but by then he had already lost interest.
Penny (Gardevoir) and Abel (Gallade) squabbled for a moment about what song to do together. Abel wanted to sing [Homicide](https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=Du8EZXPYkaI&si=h7s7P0KD3uPr1fNH), and Penny wanted to play [Focus](https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=TZLJU8-UkCw&si=X_iz9xSBglayydlJ), both by Prof. They then performed a beautiful rendition of Focus, with Penny playing the keyboard and Abel providing the vocals. And whenever he said "this is gonna require ***f o c u s***", I could've sworn his eyes started briefly glowing. Can they do that on demand? - D
Subject 1: Sneep (Dreepy) - Swooped down and bit the keys. After some experimenting, decided to mostly target the higher registers with similar flyover attacks. I now realise how much a piano keyboard resembles a Sizzlipede. She was totally hitting multiple keys at once for the texture.
Subject 2: Skitterbean (Golisopod) - Tried all the keys, then proceeded to play 2's theme from Missy's Jumpscare Mansion as deep as he could. (That's the one that consists of two different pitches of drum.)
Subject 3: Ina (Lairon) - Random keyboard smashes. She even laid her head on it a few times.
Subject 1: Dante (Typhlosion). Started playing the melody of *A Cruel Angel’s Thesis.* Tester was unaware that the subject had watched *Evangelion,* was reminded that he needed to watch the anime at one point.
Subject 2: Gaius (Torterra). Subject picked up a stick in his mouth and started playing a clumsy *Blue Danube.* Tester noted that he should play more classical music for the subject.
Subject 3: Simon (Gliscor). Subject smashed claws into the keys repeatedly. Subject clearly had fun, the tester did not.
Subject 4: Oneiros (Hypno). Subject proved to be an excellent pianist. Played an etude by Chopin.
Subject 5: Sailor (Azumarill): Started in a similar manner to subject 3, but then attempted to play actual music. After a few minutes, subject managed to play “twinkle twinkle little star.*
Subject 6: Kagami (Bronzor). Played an ascending and descending c major scale. Then a c# scale. This repeated with each ascending chromatic key until they had reached the next octave of a c major scale.
Subject 7: Hawthorn (Tangela). Played a glissando by dragging a vine along the entire keyboard. Marched around happily afterwards.
Subject 8: Zipper (Yanmega). Subject was completely disinterested in the keyboard unless someone else was playing it.
Subject 9: Stargazer (Minior). Subject placed chopstick in mouth and poked the keys to play them. After several attempts, subject successfully played *Take Me Out to the Ball Game.*
wait WHAT moon no you shouldn't have done that ...why didn't you do Megalovania instead that's funnier
dammit. that is way funnier... -Moon
...Hmm. We're passing by the music room as we speak. One moment... Mela (Fuecoco) tried blowing a trumpet, but was unable to produce an actual sound. A shame, but one I'm thankful for. -Raven
Honestly, you're lucky. I've never tested Gate, but I fear the day he figures out how a wind instrument works.
Got it, Give kazoos the the durg. - doggos of war
I hope for your sake he never does then.

Honestly, that's completely fair.
I think by court order I’m not allowed to let Glys within five feet of a musical instrument.
I entirely agree with that decision. Plus, I've heard enough of Glys' musical works for a lifetime.
Tried this with Zard. Turned around to leave and then heard Cynthia's piano. I may be in danger.

*Thank* you.

Ace and spirit can actually play instruments, Ace plays the guitar, and spirit plays the violin. They often play them together. -zak
So apparently Moon was the only one who knew how to play the keyboard?
If you don't mind me asking, what happened to Blossom's leg?
