Slow Pokémon

It's fine if the name still sounds good.

Shit like "Talonflame" is bad.

>>33211532
>Talon+inflame
What's the problem?

>>33211540
>Talon + flame

that's the problem.

Well if it was made today it'd be Torpeshark because they can't make puns flow well anymore (Dewpider instead of Spidew).

Although now that I'm thinking about it, it could be Torpedark, which would give another layer to the name...

>>33211523
>english name
>Gamefreak gave that name
Piss off newfag if you don't know shit don't talk shit. Gamefreak makes the japanese names the translators have nothing to do with gamefreak.

The name gamefreak gave is
サメハダー
=
Samehader

Please lurk for a few years before ever posting again.

That also goes for all you newfags claiming they did other shitty english names.

This is nu-Gamefreak we're talking about. Get with the times.

>>33211605

Buzzwole is best Pokemon name in existence though.

Look at this graphic you are the guy flying past the point.

Geesh hope sure is lost on this board only braindead newfags.

>who were hired by the company that controls GF
I didn't say Japanese is worse than English neckbeard, I said that word is worse in Japan. Stay buttblasted.

>>33211929
Still missing the point just give up it is getting painful.

Lemme help ya kay? The point was they said "Gamefreak is so lazy coming up with such a shitty english name" Gamefreak didn't come up with the english name the translation team did.

You keep missing the point you dumbfuck. You said "Gamefreak didn't come up with the English name the translation team did", the translation team that works WITHIN Gamefreak. Even at that the original name that you said is still lazy in Japanese, now fuck off to a waifu thread.

Thanks for proving I'm correct, now leave.

>>33211759
It's funny you mention Dewpider, because Araquanid is a pretty great name.

>>33212088
You are completely wrong and you fail to accept it like a little kid. To you it always is others never yourself just give up on life kid.

>>33212032
Imagine being this mad over something that really doesn't matter.

This is how you know you've lost an argument. Not even the other guy before you try to call samefag

Verb + onomatopeia = pkmn name

>>33211523

sharp pedo

>>33211605
That's actually the German name for it.
>>33211771
>Not Flambusard
English translators should really learn from the French.

>>33211523
Literally every single Pokémon

>>33211523
That's why I don't really like Lycanroc's name, because Lugarugan was actually already great.

>>33211605
I only just realised they dropped the Arrow theme from Fletchling/Fletchinder when they got to Talonflame.
It should have had an Archery-themed signature move like Decidueye.

I will agree there, but that's because it flows. A lot of names don't, at least when there could've been a nicer sounding name making the same pun.
