Do any non-pokemon have non-trivial pokemon quality?

1

How is the notion of 'X' is a pokemon stored in an LLM? Probably via linear direction in the residual stream that checks with an MLP? Whatever it is, once we discover it, can we see what things that aren't pokemon are the closest to (in a given LLMs opinion) being pokemon?
