[He had been almost positive he hadn't actually been talking to the guy he'd spoken to before, but he still hadn't expected it to be a Pokemon. He'd been expecting... maybe a kid borrowing the the 'Gear instead. Still, Ocelot puts on his poker face because he had told the story.]
You know, those are good questions. I believe in the story, birds are supposed to be able to know the future. The story doesn't make it clear how Ivan can talk to the one bird, does it? I suppose that means that the bird spoken to him in Russian, not the bird language.
It's a folk tale so fantastic things are possible. There's another story, about a creature called Baba Yaga, that looks like an old woman with chicken legs. Are there legends about Pokemon here? Maybe that's the same sort of thing.
Because of how old the story is, there is a different culture around it. Birds ask the king for advice because the listener of the story should ask the king advice on important matters. Of course a son can follow his mother, too. It's just a story.
