So, you have a character who spends most of the time without talking. It can be for whatever reason: they can be a Heroic Mime, they may have lost the ability to speak, or they're just shy. As time goes on...
They finally break the silence.
The Heroic Mime finally gets a line, The Speechless got their voice restored, the meek one finally got the courage to speak up, or someone finally breaks their vow of silence.
The trope can be lighthearted if done for a main character, or ominous if coming from a villain.
Compare Baby's First Words. See also The Silent Bob, a character who rarely speaks, but when he does, it's something profound, and this trope comes into play.
Not to be confused with Suddenly Voiced, which is a character who can talk finally gets a voice behind their words. See The Singing Mute for a temporary break from muteness.

The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess:
Link is well-known for always being a Heroic Mime. However, the Hero of Time incarnation of him appears as the Hero's Shade and is very vocal.
After never speaking for the entire game, King Bulblin finally speaks during his fourth and final fight with Link in the final dungeon. Before the battle, he says "I have come to play!" and after Link defeats him he says "Enough. I follow the strongest side! …that is all I have ever known." and gives Link the key he needs and retreats. Midna is more shocked at King Bulblin speaking than surrendering.

In Ward, Love Lost is a villain whose primary power is a scream which induces extremely strong feelings of rage and grief in anyone who hears it. She wears a special mask she constructed to manage the effect of the scream, and is almost never seen without it, usually communciating with her teammates and minions via a combination of gestures, writing, and text messages. However, about 12 arcs into the story, she takes off her mask and speaks for the first time since gaining her power in order to clearly and emphatically deliver a warning to a teenage minion that she is concerned about but also angry at.

Many of the animatronics from the Five Nights at Freddy's series finally gain voiced dialogue in Ultimate Custom Night, saying a line after the player gets killed by them. The only one of the original four to gain a voice was Foxy, though Freddy was originally intended to have dialogue too (his lines were given to Fredbear, who is in the game as part of an Easter Egg). Afton/Scraptrap, Mangle, Puppet, Toy Chica, Toy Freddy, Nightmare Freddy, Nightmare BB, Nightmarionne, Nightmare, Nightmare Fredbear, Rockstar Freddy, Rockstar Bonnie, Rockstar Chica, Rockstar Foxy, Withered Chica, Withered Bonnie, Funtime Foxy, Mr. Hippo, Pigpatch, Nedd Bear, Happy Frog, Orville Elephant and even No. 1 Crate all gain voiced lines, despite not saying anything in their debut games. Some of the "player death" lines, particularly those spoken by the Mediocre Melodies, also have a child's voice audible faintly in the background, which MatPat of Game Theory theorises is the voice of Golden Freddy.

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Crabbe and Goyle get on-page dialogue for the first time in the entire series, not counting when Harry and Ron impersonated them in the second book. Harry is surprised at Crabbe's Vocal Dissonance, while Goyle, who gets only one line, sounds about how you'd expect. In the same book, the gargoyle that guards Dumbledore's office speaks when it never had before, which passes without comment. (Though by this point it had been established that other gargoyles could speak.) Also in the final book is the only occasion when Nagini speaks in Harry's presence.

Crash Bandicoot:
Crash always did have a voice, but he never says a word mostly since his brain is all wonky. But in the ending of Crash of the Titans...
In the intro of the original game, he said "Uh-Oh!" (though it's questionable if that counts as a "word").
As for Crash Bandicoot 4: It's About Time? Crash was the Narrator All Along.

In The Dragon Doctors, Tanica, the assassin-turned-tree, is initially inaudible to the readers, though the characters can hear her 'speak' with the aid of magic. After several chapters where all that was seen was one-way conversations with a mostly-inexpressive tree, the author introduced first a representation of Tanica's human form to convey body language, then allowed the readers to hear her dialogue.

Tom and Jerry:
Tom and Jerry: The Movie gives the titular characters full voices and lampshades it. The second one removes this aspect.
Tom and Jerry were Suddenly Voiced pretty often in their original shorts, but not often enough for the producers to cast consistent voice actors for them. And they held only one conversation with each other: "The Lonesome Mouse", which was the first short where the duo spoke, gave them a lot to say.

At the start of the first season of Jesse, one of Jesse's brothers had taken a vow of silence. Part way through the season, he suddenly abandons the vow and starts talking (the producers presumably deciding that they had milked the 'vow of silence' angle for whatever limited comic potential it possessed).

Up until near the end of Season 1 of Skins, Effy didn't say a word. After this, however, the second season gave her her own episode, where she was quiet but talked a fair bit. Seasons 3 and 4 made her a main character and she wasn't particularly less outspoken then any other character.

Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain has Quiet, a Cold Sniper who, true to her name, is a woman of few (if any) words. The only time she speaks is late in the game: first, when she reveals to Code Talker that she is infected with the English strain of vocal cord parasites, which she is only able to do by speaking in Navajo. The second is at the end of the mission "A Quiet Exit": with Big Boss poisoned by a cobra bite, a recovery chopper unable to find them in a sandstorm, and the pilot unable to understand Navajo, Quiet is left with no choice but to direct the chopper to her location in English, activating her parasites and forcing her to retreat into the desert to prevent her parasites from causing a potentially apocalyptic pandemic.

Then, near the end of The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies and only in the Extended Edition Bifur's axe gets removed and each of two Dwarves gets a single line.

The Simpsons: Several non-canon episodes have used this trope with Maggie, including a few Halloween specials that give her a deep, masculine voice, provided by none other than James Earl Jones. She actually does speak on the show on two occasions, though: the episode about Lisa's birth and a much-more-recent episode where she says "Ja" in imitation of Springfield's recent migrant workers. She also said "Daddily-doodily" in the episode where Ned Flanders temporarily adopted the Simpson kids. But her first "official" word, at the end of an episode featuring flashbacks to the horrors of Bart and/or Lisa as toddlers: "Daddy."

A text-based example occurs in Hyrule Warriors. The game itself only features Voice Grunting, using text boxes only for character dialogue. However, one unexpected example comes in the form of Lizalfos having dialogue as enemy captains. Even though it's riddled with broken grammar, it's surprising because this is the first time in the whole franchise any Lizalfos has displayed any type of communications ability, having been portrayed as just mindless screeching blade-wielding monsters in all previous appearances.

Thomas & Friends:
All the characters were all originally voiced by Ringo Starr back when the show was still done using models, but eventually got their own voices when the show was starting with the 2000 film Thomas and the Magic Railroad. And later, the CGI animation starting with "Hero of the Rails." In the Japanese version, they were always voiced by individual voice actors, even when they were all filmed using models.
At the end of "New Crane on the Docks", Big Mickey from TUGS, who had been used as set dressing on Thomas since the '90s.

The scarab from the Jaime Reyes Blue Beetle was The Unintelligible, at least as far as the readers were concerned, speaking with incomprehensible symbols that over time became increasingly reminiscent of English characters, before changing to a legible font in its viewpoint issue. For a period during the transition, the scarab's symbols became a form of Wingdinglish.

Looney Tunes:
Wile E. Coyote is a notable exception to the rule:
He was given an intellectual New England accent for four or five cartoons, and it wasn't made permanent so much as a running joke (also referenced in Tiny Toon Adventures), so fans weren't too incensed. Most of the time, he uses Talking with Signs if he has to make a point. Presumably this is because the Roadrunner is a non-speaking foe, but Bugs isn't.
Curiously, the episode "Hare-Breadth Hurry" had Bugs against a silent Wile E. Coyote. On the other hand, Bugs was explicitly replacing the Road-Runner in that episode.
In the series Loonatics Unleashed, their descendants (Rev Runner and Tech E. Coyote) had the ability to speak.
A rare example would be Penelope Pussycat in "Carrotblanca". It was also when she was given her aforementioned moniker, as she was anonymous in the Pepé Le Pew cartoons for which she is mostly known.

Shin Megami Tensei:
In Shin Megami Tensei IV, protagonist Flynn is your typical voiceless SMT hero. In Shin Megami Tensei IV: Apocalypse, he's no longer the main character, and is thus able to speak freely.
In the PlayStation 2 Devil Summoner games, protagonist Raidou Kuzunoha was a Heroic Mime, which is par the course for Shin Megami Tensei games. However, in the 3DS port of Soul Hackers, he appears as a bonus boss and is given fully-voiced lines. In the Updated Re-release of Nocturne, the HD Remaster specifically, Raidou finally has dialogue and is also Suddenly Voiced like most of the cast, but only in battle as he calls out his attacks, hinting that this instance of Raidou otherwise chooses not to speak.
Although the Persona series's protagonists make battle grunts and incantations, they are usually otherwise Silent Protagonists. However, there are a few exceptions:
Persona 2: Innocent Sin and its sequel Persona 2: Eternal Punishment have two different protagonists, each of which takes turns being the silent one in different titles. In Eternal Punishment, the silent protagonist of the first Persona has a brief cameo, and he also gets a few lines.
In the audio dramas, the protagonists are fully voiced. The Persona 3 hero is still pretty quiet and only speaks when spoken to, but the Persona 4 hero is downright chatty, making sure his younger cousin eats well, inspiring his buddy Yosuke and so forth.
The P4 protagonist only gets chattier in spin-offs Persona 4: Arena, Persona 4: Arena Ultimax, and Persona 4: Dancing All Night, along with gaining a canon name (Yu Narukami).
In Persona Q: Shadow of the Labyrinth, either the Persona 3 protagonist or the Persona 4 protagonist becomes a voiced character depending on who you choose as your main character.
Persona Q2: New Cinema Labyrinth is the same as the above, and includes the female protagonist of Persona 3 Portable getting voiced too.
The protagonist of Persona 5 is practically an inversion, frequently making comments in gameplay and having a few lines of spoken dialogue in cutscenes too, though only a handful in the whole game.

Unlike the previous installments, which only have the player say one or two lines, usually at the end of the game, Gates to Infinity has the player speak regularly during plot important scenes, but most of the time he/she will do internal monologues rather than vocally speaking.

Borderlands 2: Midget enemies merely did wordless squealing in the first game, but they have actual lines here-midget psychos have their own lines, while other midget enemy types have higher-pitched versions of their normal counterparts' lines. Similarly, Badass Psychos only growled and snarled in the first game, but the second game gives them the same wacky lines as regular Psychos.

Kirby also started to talk in the first game, if only to imitate other characters calling their attacks or saying "Hiiii!" as a taunt. This was toned down from Melee onward, however. It should also be said that Kirby did have previously extensive (text-only) dialogue in Kirby's Avalanche—though he comes across as very Out of Character as a result—as well as several non-canon appearances where he spoke full sentences in Japanese.

All the characters were all originally voiced by Ringo Starr back when the show was still done using models, but eventually got their own voices when the show was starting with the 2000 film Thomas and the Magic Railroad. And later, the CGI animation starting with "Hero of the Rails." In the Japanese version, they were always voiced by individual voice actors, even when they were all filmed using models.

The heroes are temporarily turned into hounds (something like greyhounds, according to Harry). While in this form, Harry is shocked to discover that his dog Mouse can speak. According to Harry's scary-faerie godmother, Lea, Mouse could always talk, but as a human, Harry didn't know how to listen.
Harry is laying out his personal crisis to Mac the bartender, who is famous for responding in grunts or one word sentences. One Mac understands, he addresses Harry with a short speech, leaving Harry stunned that "He... used grammar!"

Yu-Gi-Oh!: Monsters normally don't talk and merely do noises or cries. The fourth season of the anime turns the Black/Dark Magician Girl into a major supporting character, thus she started to talk frequently as opposed to all her other appearances. Since then, later iterations of her character would talk as well. This also applies to Black/Dark Magician after his origin story is revealed.

The View Askewniverse:
This was a running joke with Silent Bob. He almost never talks, going well out of his way not to, except for one or two lines near the end of the movie that triggers some great revelation for all of the characters.
Lampshaded in Clerks II: Jay, Randall, Silent Bob, and Dante are all in a prison cell. Jay turns to Silent Bob, expecting some sage advice.
It was lampshaded as far back as Chasing Amy, where as Bob is about to speak, Jay says something like "Great, he's gonna fuckin' say something. He thinks just 'cause he never says anything that when he does talk it's supposed to be important or something." And Bob even retorts by pointing out that everything Jay says is worthless bullshit.

Jucika was a dialogue-free strip that relies on visual gags or, at most, written signs. In the main strips, Jucika only ever says one word ("Mouse!"). In special one-off strips, though, she can talk freely.

Golden Sun makes the lead character in each game that you're playing the Silent Protagonist. However, given that the two games (GS and GS: The Lost Age) are connected and form a single story together, that causes the silent protagonist of the first game to become Suddenly Speaking, and the inverse happens to the silent protagonist of the second game (suddenly silenced). At the ending, both characters can speak.

I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue:
Colin Sell in spoke up (faintly) during a round of "Just a Minim" much to the teams' amazement and Humph's disapproval.
The faintness would continue when he spoke later, because he didn't have a microphone. This becomes a plot point in I'm Sorry I Haven't a Christmas Carol, when Ebenezer Scrumph is too mean to supply his assistant Colin Crotchet with a mike, but he turns out to have one at home.

Sunspot from Ready Jet Go! is usually The Speechless, but in “Sunspot’s Sunspot", when under the effects of the sunspots on the sun, he says "No, thank you" and "I am lovable, aren't I?".

Homestuck plays with this. Characters can communicate with each other, but not directly face to face unless certain gimmicks are in place (such using a chat client, talking to a Sprite, or are in a walk-around flash). One of the special abilities God Tier players can get is the ability to talk face-to-face with someone.

In Batman: The Brave and the Bold, Katana of the Outsiders remains silent until the end of her debut episode, when she calmly handed out instructions to save Wildcat's life. We also hear her talk in a Journey to the Center of the Mind flashback, which reveals that she speaks so little because she accidentally revealed a secret that got her sensei killed.

Land of Oz: The third book Ozma of Oz establishes via retcon that animals from normal lands can talk as soon as they reach magic land. Several books later, Dorothy (and Baum) finally realizes that Toto can talk. After correctly surmising that he doesn't speak because he never did in Kansas and doesn't see the point of starting now, she demands that he speak. He says "Satisfied?" and runs off. Where this trope comes into play is the eleventh book, where he is constantly chatting up a storm for no reason. After the book ends, he's back to being Silent Bob for the remainder of the series.

Toodles of Mickey Mouse Clubhouse usually communicates with mechanical noises until the Birthday Episode "Happy Birthday, Toodles" where he not only gained a face, but guess who voiced him near the end. He continues to have them in the specials "Road Rally" and "Space Adventure" and most of the episodes of the fourth (and final) season.

In Horton Hears a Who!, JoJo remains silent throughout most of the film; the narrator suggests it's because he's convinced anything he says will disappoint his father. Of course, at the very end he makes a "YOPP!" that's The Last Straw needed to let the Noolians hear the Whos, and gets a few more lines before the credits roll.

Captain Price is in the same boat as Soap, where he's talkative as an NPC but silent as a player character, but in his case it's more of an inversion because he's only playable for two levels in the first game. He finally takes a leaf from the Black Ops games for the final level of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, however, where he is playable one more time yet remains just as talkative as he was across the rest of the game.

It was lampshaded as far back as Chasing Amy, where as Bob is about to speak, Jay says something like "Great, he's gonna fuckin' say something. He thinks just 'cause he never says anything that when he does talk it's supposed to be important or something." And Bob even retorts by pointing out that everything Jay says is worthless bullshit.

At first, Jak of Jak and Daxter was a Heroic Mime. Then Jak II: Renegade came about, complete with a voice. It's lampshaded repeatedly, even before it's invoked: "Say something! Just this once!" The most amusing moment might be when the duo escapes from prison. The first thing that Jak does is walk up to the first person he sees and yell for answers, prompting Daxter to say, "Uhh... Sorry. He's new to the whole 'conversation' thing." His first words? "I'm gonna kill Praxis!"

The Legend of Zelda:
A borderline case happens in The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker. While the game already features a lot more voice-acting than the previous games in the series (it's however still limited to "Hey!"s "Oy!"s and various grunts.) Link himself stunned quite a few players when he suddenly screamed "Come on!!" at one point in the game. Not that it's the first time he had any dialogue.
The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess:
Link is well-known for always being a Heroic Mime. However, the Hero of Time incarnation of him appears as the Hero's Shade and is very vocal.
After never speaking for the entire game, King Bulblin finally speaks during his fourth and final fight with Link in the final dungeon. Before the battle, he says "I have come to play!" and after Link defeats him he says "Enough. I follow the strongest side! …that is all I have ever known." and gives Link the key he needs and retreats. Midna is more shocked at King Bulblin speaking than surrendering.
A text-based example occurs in Hyrule Warriors. The game itself only features Voice Grunting, using text boxes only for character dialogue. However, one unexpected example comes in the form of Lizalfos having dialogue as enemy captains. Even though it's riddled with broken grammar, it's surprising because this is the first time in the whole franchise any Lizalfos has displayed any type of communications ability, having been portrayed as just mindless screeching blade-wielding monsters in all previous appearances.

Zig-zagged with Jack, the protagonist of BioShock. He talks in the beginning cutscene, where he briefly recounts how his parents told him that he was destined for greatness. After that, you don't hear a word from him for the rest of the game. Later on, you pick up an audio tape, and once you turn it on, you realize it's of Dr. Suchong talking to Jack when he was a child, and Jack answers him multiple times. He speaks much more than he did when you knew him as an adult and with much more emotion, considering how he's being forced to kill his beloved dog because he's being given his Trigger Phrase to listen to whatever the person instructing him tells him to.

Twilight (2005): James and Victoria are completely silent in their first scene. James speaks sometime after it's become clear that he's the first book's Big Bad, while Victoria doesn't speak until the climax of the third book... which, to be fair, is only the second time that she and the viewpoint character actually meet, despite having been the Big Bad of the last two books. Marcus is similarly silent when he appears in the second book and for most of his appearance in the fourth, only speaking up when he is asked to vote on the proceedings.

The protagonist in the first Saints Row would only have a one liner at the end of each campaign and only male voice-overs. They more than make up for this in Saints Row 2, with not one but six different voices to choose from, male and female, and unique dialogue for each. Saints Row: The Third and IV add more diversity to the options (including a thicker accent for the male British voice and a Russian-accented voice for women) and even each have a seventh gimmick voice, the Third having zombie grunts and IV having Nolan North as Nolan North.

Wile E. Coyote is a notable exception to the rule:
He was given an intellectual New England accent for four or five cartoons, and it wasn't made permanent so much as a running joke (also referenced in Tiny Toon Adventures), so fans weren't too incensed. Most of the time, he uses Talking with Signs if he has to make a point. Presumably this is because the Roadrunner is a non-speaking foe, but Bugs isn't.
Curiously, the episode "Hare-Breadth Hurry" had Bugs against a silent Wile E. Coyote. On the other hand, Bugs was explicitly replacing the Road-Runner in that episode.
In the series Loonatics Unleashed, their descendants (Rev Runner and Tech E. Coyote) had the ability to speak.

Predaking of Transformers: Prime is seemingly unable to speak while in dragon mode, this changes when he eventually demonstrates the ability to transform in "Evolution."
The Insecticons do not have any lines other than screams and shrieks until the episode Armada, where they break free of Airachnid's control and speak to profess loyalty to Megatron.
Bumblebee's voicebox is restored by Cybermatter during the series's final climatic battle and he is finally able to speak with his own voice, rather than beeps, for the series finale, voiced by Will Friedle. He keeps this voice for the follow-up Grand Finale movie.
In the episode "Minus One", Soundwave is taken prisoner by the Autobots and, after having spent the entire series not saying a word, he finally uttered his famous "Soundwave superior" line from G1.

In the PlayStation 2 Devil Summoner games, protagonist Raidou Kuzunoha was a Heroic Mime, which is par the course for Shin Megami Tensei games. However, in the 3DS port of Soul Hackers, he appears as a bonus boss and is given fully-voiced lines. In the Updated Re-release of Nocturne, the HD Remaster specifically, Raidou finally has dialogue and is also Suddenly Voiced like most of the cast, but only in battle as he calls out his attacks, hinting that this instance of Raidou otherwise chooses not to speak.

Final Fantasy VI: For the whole prologue in Narshe, the protagonist is a green-haired girl called ??????, who never speaks and seems to be a Heroic Mime. Things however don't go that way, and after the prologue, ??????'s name is revealed as Terra Branford, and from then on, she becomes a fully speaking character. Justified: she had a mind-control device called Slave Crown attached on her head, which got removed after the prologue allowing Terra to be herself again.

Teen Titans (2003):
A slightly different idea around the same concept: Mas y Menos are regular chatterboxes, but only speak Spanish. An episode near the end of the series features them speaking English when supervillain Control Freak changes the setting on his superpowered remote.
When Cinderblock spoke, it made the villains suspicious. As Jericho speaks with the voice of the victim, that means Cinderblock has the ability to talk.
In the first episode he appeared, Monsieur Mallah was silent until the end and talked through the entire series. This came off as rather funny to people who weren't familiar with the comics, as many viewers assumed he was just never a Talking Animal.

The series adaptation of The Land Before Time voiced Spike, though he was speaking inside his head.
The fourth movie, Journey Through the Mists, play is straight: when Ducky is thrown into peril towards the end and causes a Say My Name moment amongst her friends, Spike goes, "Duuuhh… duuuhh… duuuhh… DUCKY!!!" Lampshaded immediately after with everybody else doing a collective gasp directed at him.
The carnivorous dinosaurs in the movie series always grunted and roared whereas the herbivorous ones had full speech (except Spike)—until Chomper's re-introduction. In the second movie, Chomper made animal noises just like any of the other tyrannosauruses; but when he was brought back in later movies, he could talk and converse with the main characters. He remains the exception to the rule though. It turns out that said grunting and roaring is simply a different language: By hanging out with Littlefoot and his crew for some time and with his parents the rest of the time, he became bilingual. At one point, they changed them to speaking Spanish for some reason.

Yuu Kajima from the Gundam video game Blue Destiny originally went voiceless to reinforce his status as a stand-in for the player (hence his name, a homophone for "You"); this even extended to his appearances in early SD Gundam G Generation games, where his "dialog" consisted of nothing but ellipses. When he started turning up as a guest character in later video games like Encounters in Space, Yuu was given a voice (in fact, he's had two: Kōichi Yamadera and Jun'ichi Suwabe).

Noob zig-zags this. Précieux talked exactly once in Season 1, then had to resort to Talking with Signs with the game's chat function after breaking his microphone in Season 2. This basically became the main gimmick of the character's live-action version all the way up to Season 5. Noob: Le Conseil des Trois Factions had him stay silent on both channels through most of the movie, then have a spoken line near the end that startles one of his acquaintances. Noob: La Quête Légendaire has him back to Talking with Signs, then get voiced again when a Non-Player Character Body Snatcher uses him as a host.

Subverted with the protagonists in the main series. Pokémon Red and Blue has multiple lines that imply Red is quite talkative (including Copycat copying him), however come his reappearance in Pokémon Gold and Silver and he only "talks" in ellipses. By Pokémon Sun and Moon he's seemingly become The Stoic and literally doesn't talk. The protagonists of Pokémon Black and White were meant to reappear fully-voiced in Pokémon Black 2 and White 2 however they were ultimately scrapped in development.

Although the Persona series's protagonists make battle grunts and incantations, they are usually otherwise Silent Protagonists. However, there are a few exceptions:
Persona 2: Innocent Sin and its sequel Persona 2: Eternal Punishment have two different protagonists, each of which takes turns being the silent one in different titles. In Eternal Punishment, the silent protagonist of the first Persona has a brief cameo, and he also gets a few lines.
In the audio dramas, the protagonists are fully voiced. The Persona 3 hero is still pretty quiet and only speaks when spoken to, but the Persona 4 hero is downright chatty, making sure his younger cousin eats well, inspiring his buddy Yosuke and so forth.
The P4 protagonist only gets chattier in spin-offs Persona 4: Arena, Persona 4: Arena Ultimax, and Persona 4: Dancing All Night, along with gaining a canon name (Yu Narukami).
In Persona Q: Shadow of the Labyrinth, either the Persona 3 protagonist or the Persona 4 protagonist becomes a voiced character depending on who you choose as your main character.
Persona Q2: New Cinema Labyrinth is the same as the above, and includes the female protagonist of Persona 3 Portable getting voiced too.
The protagonist of Persona 5 is practically an inversion, frequently making comments in gameplay and having a few lines of spoken dialogue in cutscenes too, though only a handful in the whole game.

Pokémon Mystery Dungeon:
The protagonist is a standard Heroic Mime, with the twist that they do internal monologues relating to the situation at hand. The protagonist finally does speak out loud at the ending of both games, but goes to being quiet and thoughtful afterwards.
Unlike the previous installments, which only have the player say one or two lines, usually at the end of the game, Gates to Infinity has the player speak regularly during plot important scenes, but most of the time he/she will do internal monologues rather than vocally speaking.
Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon also has this that could catch players off guard. When the screen is black before the player character finds out that Mew is missing and prior to finding out someone (which turns out to be Nuzleaf) knocked the player out, the player character is given a line of dialogue. The game even goes far as to give the player their own nametag during said dialogue.

Red vs. Blue:
At first, Lopez is just a voiceless mechanic character. Towards the end of the first season, Sarge reveals that Lopez is a robot and that he had ordered a voice chip that would allow full speech. Sarge decides not to ground himself before installing it and static electricity breaks the chip. For the rest of the series, Lopez can speak, but only in poorly translated Spanish (except for one PSA where he speaks French, one episode of Family Shatters where he speaks Latin, and one episode in Singularity where it's shown that Lopez's worst nightmare is being both human and capable of speaking English).
The Meta speaks entirely in low growls and snarls. In the prequel sections of Season 9, he speaks on extremely rare occasions... and promptly gets shot in the throat, leading to his later speechless behavior. This makes it a bit of an Inversion.

Pokémon Origins: The famous Heroic Mime Red talks frequently in the anime. Ironically, the Pokémon avert the Pokémon Speak trope and make only animal voices.

Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon also has this that could catch players off guard. When the screen is black before the player character finds out that Mew is missing and prior to finding out someone (which turns out to be Nuzleaf) knocked the player out, the player character is given a line of dialogue. The game even goes far as to give the player their own nametag during said dialogue.

In the Gone in 60 Seconds (2000) remake, the character of 'The Sphinx' is mysterious due to his muteness, when he suddenly speaks very philosophically at the end of the film with a British accent (actor Vinnie Jones' natural accent). When one of the others says they thought he was from Long Beach, he merely shrugs.

This happens to characters who wind up in Brawl. The Pokémon Trainer (aka Red) even speaks a bit, despite traditionally being a Heroic Mime so much so that even when you fight him in Pokémon Gold and Silver and Pokémon Stadium 2, all he ever says is "..."; all his lines, though, are taken from the "Pokémon entering battle"/"Pokémon leaving battle" dialogue boxes used in the games (which are supposed to be spoken by the player themselves).

Tekken:
Aside from a few kiais and grunts, all of the characters before Tekken 4 were not very talkative (it was especially jarring in their ending sequences). Julia Chang from Tekken 3 was the first to break the silence in her not-quite standard ending. After that, everybody got into the act in Tekken 4 and every succeeding game afterwards.
Yoshimitsu could also count, as in Tekken 3 he is heard to recite "Shikisokuzeku" in one of his winposes — part of the Heart Sutra.

Completely inverted in the Tintin series. Tintin's dog Snowy converses with him in the earlier adventures (a holdover from the sillier, less realistic Early-Installment Weirdness that came with the original newspaper strip), tones it down after the introduction of Captain Haddock, and then by the end of the series is a fully voiceless dog both in means of communication and in behavior.

A borderline case happens in The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker. While the game already features a lot more voice-acting than the previous games in the series (it's however still limited to "Hey!"s "Oy!"s and various grunts.) Link himself stunned quite a few players when he suddenly screamed "Come on!!" at one point in the game. Not that it's the first time he had any dialogue.

On Wishfart, the Gum King simply spoke in snarling and roaring when he made his first appearance. In his reappearances, however, he had inexplicably gained a sophisticated and aristocratic-sounding voice. It's completely possible that he learned to speak some time between, given that he had been spontaneously created by a backfired wish in his debut.

Things however don't go that way, and after the prologue, ??????'s name is revealed as Terra Branford, and from then on, she becomes a fully speaking character. Justified: she had a mind-control device called Slave Crown attached on her head, which got removed after the prologue allowing Terra to be herself again.
Final Fantasy X: Tidus viably starts the first time Kimahri talks to him, since the Ronso had been The Voiceless up till that point.

Yu-Gi-Oh!:
Yu-Gi-Oh!: Monsters normally don't talk and merely do noises or cries. The fourth season of the anime turns the Black/Dark Magician Girl into a major supporting character, thus she started to talk frequently as opposed to all her other appearances. Since then, later iterations of her character would talk as well. This also applies to Black/Dark Magician after his origin story is revealed.
Yu-Gi-Oh!: Capsule Monsters, Elf Swordsman/Celtic Guardian and Black/Dark Magician infrequently speak to Yugi, and Mystical Sands speaks quite a bit.
Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL starts the trend of giving monsters Pokémon Speak. A very prominent example is Gagaga Girl, who goes beyond that and occasional calls Gagaga Magician "senpai".
Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V: In his debut episode, BB only grunts, reflecting his "wild savage" imagine. But in the next episode, he talks just fine.

Scooby-Doo Direct-to-Video Film Series
Near the end of Scooby-Doo and the Alien Invaders, Crystal's dog Amber reveals she can speak shortly after the two are revealed to be aliens.
In Scooby-Doo! Frankencreepy, Cuthbert Crawls speaks, with the voice of Kevin Michael Richardson, even though he had no dialogue for his appearance on Scooby-Doo, Where Are You!. Lila is an interesting case in that while she did speak on The Scooby-Doo Show, her voice actress wasn't credited for the role, unlike Candi Milo here.

A non-serial case occurred in Bastion. The entire game is fully narrated by the character Rucks — even when you talk to other characters, it's just Rucks narrating what you talked about. However, right at the end, just before you're asked to choose your ending, the potential love interest, Zia, suddenly gains a voice when you talk to her. The effect is both shocking and striking... and may serve to push you towards a particular ending.

Courage the Cowardly Dog went all over the place on this trope. He pantomimes to his owners, but in later seasons talks to outsiders and the audience on occasion.
In his pilot episode, he was voiceless throughout most of the cartoon, but at the very end, he looked directly at the 'camera', and said, "This should not be happening to a dog." Indeed, everyone was voiceless, even Muriel and Eustace, while in the series proper dialogue was always a big part, whether or not Courage was a part of it.
In general though, this trope was inverted. Courage had a lot more to say in the earlier seasons (including a catchphrase), but eventually ended up pantomiming everything (with a few exceptions).

Trolls normally can't speak human languages, but this one has had his brain modified by the Starter Villain. He could speak Yelglish all along, but it took a while for Katie to gain his trust—which he returns by first trying to warn her she's in danger, then giving Oliver and Nanao a clue to where to find her after the Starter Villain kidnaps her.

In Bean, Mr. Bean was changed from being a combination of The Voiceless and The Unintelligible to speaking freely, and gave a speech before a crowd near the end. The premise of the movie sort of forces it, though, since Bean interacts with several characters who speak directly to him (no one ever really did in the original program). The second sort of upholds the status quo, in that he spends most of the movie in France and has little occasion to speak English.

In Hook, Tinkerbell (who is usually depicted as The Unintelligible) can speak intelligibly, and has the job of explaining the plot to Peter. Could be a Translation Convention, since Peter is the viewpoint character in this one and he always could understand her.

Sonic the Hedgehog: Metal Sonic gains a voice in Sonic Heroes, but goes back to being speechless in every appearance afterwards. Until Sonic Generations, where he speaks in a text box when spoken to in the hub. Word of God says he can speak, but is "a man of few words" and prefers to be silent most of the time.

At first, Lopez is just a voiceless mechanic character. Towards the end of the first season, Sarge reveals that Lopez is a robot and that he had ordered a voice chip that would allow full speech. Sarge decides not to ground himself before installing it and static electricity breaks the chip. For the rest of the series, Lopez can speak, but only in poorly translated Spanish (except for one PSA where he speaks French, one episode of Family Shatters where he speaks Latin, and one episode in Singularity where it's shown that Lopez's worst nightmare is being both human and capable of speaking English).

Logan: Laura spends the first half of the movie not saying a single word, causing Logan to assume she is mute. He gets a shock when Laura replies "De nada" ("you're welcome" in Spanish) to him beforing throwing a diatribe of Spanglish at him. Bilingual Bonus reveals that Laura willfully chose to remain silent around Logan; when she blows up at him she pointedly asks why he expects her to talk to him, when all he's done the entire film is yell at her, insult her, or try to abandon her.

Digital Devil Saga: Serph is a Heroic Mime for the majority of the games, but during a flashback his past self has quite a lot to say, and everything he says establishes how much of a monster he is. It's actually a subversion however, as it's not the same Serph, but rather the base from which the protagonist is created. Serph himself actually speaks once he fuses with Sera to become Seraph.

Inverted with Furrball on Tiny Toon Adventures. In one early episode ("Duck Trek"), he was voiced by Rob Paulsen, but was later replaced by Frank Welker. For some of the first-recorded episodes (including "Buster and the Wolverine"), Welker just gave Furrball an actual voice, but it was later reduced to Furrball either being silent or just meowing.

Quantum Devil Saga: Avatar Tuner: In this novelization of Digital Devil Saga, Heroic Mime Serph speaks full sentences and, unlike most Megaten protagonists in adaptations, isn't even The Quiet One (Heat speaks much less than him), and instead of being Demoted to Extra due to him not speaking without a player playing him, he receives a new, revamped character arc. Justified, as he's a Composite Character of him and Gale from the game.

Several background characters in My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic, a couple of the most prominent examples being Amethyst Star in the episode "The Mysterious Mare Do Well" and Derpy Hooves in the episode "The Last Roundup" (after which she became The Voiceless until "Slice of Life").
Derpy's Equestria Girls counterpart is voiceless throughout all of her appearances except for a single line in Legend of Everfree ("And I'm all out of arrows!").
Lyra Heartstrings and Minuette (aka Colgate) get voices for the first time in "A Canterlot Wedding". The former is voiced by the same actress as Cadance and her imposter. Minuette speaks again in "Trade Ya!", this time with a masculine voice for some reason.
Sassaflash finally got a voiced role while playing Admiral Fairy Flight in "Testing, Testing, 1-2-3" after nearly four seasons of silence. Ditto the two unnamed background ponies portraying Purple Dart and Easy Glider, the former being the first time Tara Strong has had a credited role other than Twilight.
Helia ("Sorry we couldn't fly with you on the Aerial Relay"), Crescent Moon("There's Rainbow Dash, she's an awesome flyer!"), and Sprinkle Medley ("I hear they're flying for Cloudsdale") in "Rainbow Falls".
Zig-zagged with Big Macintosh; in "Applebuck Season" he has several full lines of dialogue, but most other appearances have him only saying "Eeyup" and "Nope." When the love potion in "Hearts and Hooves Day" results in his spouting no end of pet names is jarring because of his customary lack of dialogue. Later episodes return Big Macintosh to his customary two phrases (we do see him singing in a couple of episodes, but never solo or in a context where you could really pick out his voice) and he is often prevented from becoming Suddenly Voiced by other characters (cutting him off to insist they already know exactly how he feels, because they disagree with him, etc).
In "Ponyville Confidential", we get another O.O.C. Is Serious Business moment with him: when he of all ponies speaks full sentences to read you the riot act for what you pulled, it makes an impact.
Despite the fact that Octavia already had spoken in My Little Pony: Equestria Girls – Rainbow Rocks, in "Slice of Life" she gets a lot more dialogue.
"Slice of Life" also gives a voice to Gummy of all characters.
Featherweight, a young colt who first made a major appearance in "Ponyville Confidential" and made background appearances in later episodes, was kept mute until "The One Where Pinkie Pie Knows".
Most of the Wonderbolts aside from Spitfire and Soarin' are just there to fill the background for the team, but Fleetfoot managed to receive a speaking part in "Rainbow Falls", both Blaze and Misty Fly received dialogue one season later in "Rarity Investigates," and Surprise and High Winds had lines in "Newbie Dash."
Twilight Sparkle and Shining Armor's parents finally get speaking parts in Part 2 of "The Crystalling."
Aloe, one of the two main ponies who run the town spa, received speaking lines in the fifth season episode "Castle, Sweet Castle." Then she proceeded to get a full supporting role, along with a European accent, in "Applejack's Day Off".
King Sombra had only a few lines in this first appearances, but in the Season 9 premiere, he talks constantly in complete sentences.

Call of Duty
"Soap" MacTavish from Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare follows the tradition of being a Heroic Mime. In Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, he, along with newcomer Pvt. Allen, can speak, but only when the player is not controlling them.
Captain Price is in the same boat as Soap, where he's talkative as an NPC but silent as a player character, but in his case it's more of an inversion because he's only playable for two levels in the first game. He finally takes a leaf from the Black Ops games for the final level of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, however, where he is playable one more time yet remains just as talkative as he was across the rest of the game.
Call of Duty: Black Ops: The game has a flashback mission set months after the "official" end of World War II. Dmitri Petrenko, the Russian protagonist of World at War, appears in it and is now voiced.

Most of the main characters in Suikoden are silent, however they almost always have one or two non-choice lines or "forced" choices where you only get a single dialogue option. Tir McDohl talks three times in Suikoden 1 (when selecting him in war battles he speaks a short sentence, and in two plot-critical moments) and likewise in Suikoden II. Riou in 2 has a single forced choice before the final level, and his younger self in a flashback is a talking character (even when the flashback retreads part of the plot, Riou speaks there). In Suikoden III all three protagonists speak full dialogues, in Suikoden IV Lazlo has one line after getting the Dauntless, and in Suikoden V Freyjadour speaks a single sentence right before fighting the final boss. Tir actually speaks full sentences in a Japan-only light novel adaptation.

The rule in Mother 3 seems to be that the "main character" of the current chapter isn't allowed to talk on the job. This leads to some jarring moments in later chapters when you encounter former party leaders and find that they not only speak, but have distinct personalities. This is actually one of the more artistic aspects of the game since it forces you to identify a character as yourself before seeing how other people view them. It also fits in well with the ending where it's implied that the "Dragon," who is being "passed Lucas's heart" is actually the Player. There's a single exception in Chapter 5 of the story — a Pigmask gives Lucas a gift, thinking that he's the Masked Man and given that Lucas is implied to be much more amiable than the person he's disguised as, he seems nervously awkward about him accepting this gift and tells him it's "strictly in a friend sense". Talking to him again has Lucas mimic back, "Strictly in a friend sense!", which is very easy to miss—the intent is for you to think the Pigmask is just repeating himself as most NPCs do. Most players don't notice this unless it's pointed out, but the dialogue box has Lucas's name and his mouth even moves.

Happens twice in Live A Live.
Pogo is a Heroic Mime because he predates the invention of spoken language. At the end of his chapter, he gets to speak humanity's first word: "Love".
Oersted is a rather traditional Heroic Mime. At the end of his chapter, he gets a short speech detailing how far over the Despair Event Horizon he's gone before turning himself into the next Lord of Dark, making him neither a mime nor a heroic individual. He is then fully talkative during the final chapter.

Gronk the dinosaur originally could only say his name (in the form of bellowing), but in later strips he started speaking fluently like the other animals.
Grog also spoke in a strip from January 24, 1977.

Michael Myers was a silent (possibly mute?) killer for over seven Halloween movies. But the director's cut of Rob Zombie's Halloween II (2009) actually has Michael scream "DIE!" before killing Loomis. The previous film showed him talking, but only as a child.

OMORI has two examples that only happen on the game's true route. When Omori confronts Sunny at the very end, he cuts his Heroic Mime act to convince Sunny to give up and kill himself. And if you manage to defeat him, the epilogue shows Sunny walking into Basil's hospital room where all of his friends are waiting. The screen cuts to black and Sunny says "I have to tell you something."

Rayman. In the first Rayman game, he could not talk (except for a single line in the intro). In Rayman 2: The Great Escape, he used unintelligible grunts in a "Raymanese" language (at least in the PC, N64 and Dreamcast version). He finally got full English dialogue (or in whatever language you choose in the menu, which includes the "Raymanese" option) in the PSX and PS2 versions of Rayman 2: The Great Escape and Rayman 3: Hoodlum Havoc provided by David Gasman (who did Rayman's "Raymanese" speech).

Fire Emblem: Three Houses:
The game gives female Byleth one line that is said without player's input and it only occurs during her S-Support scene with Dedue. She expresses her surprise to hear him ask Dimitri to release him from his position as vassal, so that Dedue can marry Byleth, which is a severe change from his usual stance.
The spinoff game Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes gives both female and male Byleth fully voiced dialogue.

The Poopsmith from Homestar Runner has taken a vow of silence, and rarely speaks. The only time he actually said something was in "email thunder", in which he sings. And sounds exactly like one of the Johns of They Might Be Giants fame. He also says "hello" in the email "different town", as part of Strong Bad's fantasy about things he wishes were different. Once again, TMBG was involved. He speaks once more in Marzipan's Answering Machine 17.2. In fact, he actually has an entire MONOLOGUE where he questions his career choice, sings a little bit, and even LAMPSHADES the fact that he's talking at the very end!

Then he gets accidentally caught into a stream of magic coming from human Fluttershy (whose power is later demonstrated to be talking to animals), and suddenly he's voiced by Cathy Weseluck like his dragon counterpart.

Transformers:
Blurr of Transformers: Animated does not speak or transform during his first appearance while under a human criminal's control. When he does speak in the season 2 finale, he speaks very, very quickly in a call back to his original G1 incarnation.
Predaking of Transformers: Prime is seemingly unable to speak while in dragon mode, this changes when he eventually demonstrates the ability to transform in "Evolution."
The Insecticons do not have any lines other than screams and shrieks until the episode Armada, where they break free of Airachnid's control and speak to profess loyalty to Megatron.
Bumblebee's voicebox is restored by Cybermatter during the series's final climatic battle and he is finally able to speak with his own voice, rather than beeps, for the series finale, voiced by Will Friedle. He keeps this voice for the follow-up Grand Finale movie.
In the episode "Minus One", Soundwave is taken prisoner by the Autobots and, after having spent the entire series not saying a word, he finally uttered his famous "Soundwave superior" line from G1.

Super Smash Bros.:
This happens to characters who wind up in Brawl. The Pokémon Trainer (aka Red) even speaks a bit, despite traditionally being a Heroic Mime so much so that even when you fight him in Pokémon Gold and Silver and Pokémon Stadium 2, all he ever says is "..."; all his lines, though, are taken from the "Pokémon entering battle"/"Pokémon leaving battle" dialogue boxes used in the games (which are supposed to be spoken by the player themselves).
Kirby also started to talk in the first game, if only to imitate other characters calling their attacks or saying "Hiiii!" as a taunt. This was toned down from Melee onward, however. It should also be said that Kirby did have previously extensive (text-only) dialogue in Kirby's Avalanche—though he comes across as very Out of Character as a result—as well as several non-canon appearances where he spoke full sentences in Japanese.
Ness was also given soundbytes, and loud ones at that, despite being a Heroic Mime formerly (though he did have the occasional line, such as in Lumine Hall). Same can be said for the Ice Climbers.
This is also inverted in the case of Donkey Kong, Diddy Kong, King K. Rool, and Bowser, who have human-sounding voices in their home series, but are reduced to animalistic grunts, roars, and screeches in the Smash series. Also inverted for Olimar and Mega Man, who spoke in full text boxes in their own series, but are completely unvoiced in Smash Bros.
Sheik is a borderline example. She has almost unnoticeable vocal sound effects in her source game, maybe used once or twice, but come Melee and she has a large (and loud) array of sound effects. She even has a line of dialogue in the Japanese version of Melee ("Moratta!", meaning "I got it!")

Tales of Xillia 2:
Barring dialogue choices, Calling Your Attacks, and his Fractured counterparts, the only line Ludger is intended to speak occurs when he screams Elle's name while running to save her. In the international version, he's given a couple more spoken lines where in Japanese he was only Voice Grunting. However, his appearances in spinoff titles, Drama CDs, as well his home game's manga adaptation, all have him speak normally.
An unused voice line features Ludger speaking in the game's Bad Ending. Specifically, after killing the rest of the party he asks Julius what he wants for dinner. If there were no other plans for him to speak, this would have been the only full sentence he says as a playable character in the entire game.

Sidewalk Stories (1989) is a remake of Charlie Chaplin's The Kid set amongst Manhattan's homeless, and appropriately, it is a Silent Movie. Up until the last minute of the film, that is, when a group of homeless can suddenly be heard, some begging passers-by for change, some with the raving of the mentally ill. It's a harsh reminder of the grim existence of the homeless.
