Daily reminder that pkmn is shit today

cant be fucked to use jap names, though some english ones are stupid too. Emolga is Emonga in Japanese, why the fuck did they bother to change one letter?

Same with Shaymin. It's Japanese name is Sheimi. Could've just kept its Japanese name instead of making a small change.

I prefer Shaymin's English name, though.

>>32365035
>Emolga is Emonga in Japanese
>Why?
Because Japanese people cannot pronounce L's. Seriously. They usually default to R sounds. So it could've been Emoruga too.

There's lots of equally bad English names that people don't think of as bad because they're used to them.

Don't choke on your burger

I guess you could say that the Japanese names are the "true" names, since that is what the original creators called them. But English Pokemon names are actually pretty damn clever a lot of the time, and at least to my inferior American ears, sound better than many of the Japanese names. That's why the Pokerap worked so well - (most of) those names were well thought out and clever.

>>32365137
Emonga is the original name you dumbass, and it comes from "momonga", the nip word for flying squirrel. "Emolga" doesn't mean or come from anything.

>>32366372
Most modern English Pokemon names are pretty straight localizations of the Japanese ones and pun on roughly the same thing.

Not always that well, "Inkay" is pretty clumsy and forced compared to "Maaiika", but most of them are pretty straight forward.

>>32366379
>you dumbass
Ah here Anon, that hurts my feelings over a small mistake. Why do you gotta be such a cunt?

>>32366557
Cunts get ahead in life. Dumbasses don't.

>>32363774

If you don't know your favorite Pokemon's name in Japanese then it's not truly your favorite.

>>32366567
If you don't know every Pokemon's name in Japanese then you're not truly a fan.

>>32366379

He's still right about the Japanese and L's though.

>okay. By the way, what should we rename that sarcophagus Pokemon?

Fakku yeah, Lowret.

The only pokemon I use its japanese name for is Gekkouga. I only vaguely remember the name Mokuroh because of the trademark leaks.

>>32366892
Why only Mokuroh and not Ashimari and Nyabby?

>>32366915
Mokuroh means "wood owl" and was used as proof that the scribble starters were real

>>32366892
I'm the same way with Mijumaru, up until recently I found it hard to call him Oshawott because I saw the Japanese name all over the place for months..

>>32366939
I wish we still got the Japanese names long before the English ones.

I've always hated this. There was a time when animefags were nothing but this. Some of them still are. No. I am not impressed, I don't care. Thank goodness for global releases and that I don't have to worry about that for the most part. (yes, I know it still exists even with that because the anime is the biggest idiocy on the face of the planet)

>I only vaguely remember the name Mokuroh because of the trademark leaks.

I feel somewhat similar about Tsutarja, because for a time that was all we had, but then everyone started calling it Smugleaf, and that name just burned itself into my mind. It will always be Smugleaf to me.

>referring to characters in the game by the name they have in the game is good

Astonishing display of logic there

Fun fact

Yanmega in Japanese is basically Mega Yanma, so a Mega Yanmega would basically be Mega Mega Yanma in Japananese

>>32367039
Most of them are based on the game characters. There is no excuse.

>>32367306
>they have one name in the game and another in the anime
>you have to use the name you read in the game a year ago when talking about the anime rather than the one you're audibly hearing right then and there

>>32367367
You'd have to either be an idiot or blind to not know who it is by sight alone. If the dialogue makes it unclear who is being referred to, you would have to know what the JP names are, but unless you are a weeaboo, there is no reason to not use the localized names if they exist when doing a translation or talking about it online. It's easier to just directly use the JP names? Maybe for translation purposes, but for discussion, people are going to use the name they are more familiar with. Unless you go to a community that strictly only uses Japanese names, the localized ones will be more familiar. The anime community has always been that way? You may have me there, but I do not recall a moment in either XY or SM where people referred to any of the game native characters by anything other than the localized names. COTD and anime unique characters, yes, they will always be deferred to by their JP names. Perhaps for all time because their dub names are often shitty.

>>32363936
Don't forget, Ghos and Ghost.

>>32363836
No, his name is Inu.
