Gourgeist's name in German is "Pumpdjinn" and I love it.

Drampa's German name is miles better: Sen-Long.

>>33298303
That's not how you pronounce it, anon.
German "w" is pronounced like English "v" and German "u" is like the "oo" in look.

>>33298303
German has the best names, hands down.

there some stupid names, but most of them are awesome, especially gen 1-4 and 7

Bewear's french name is "Chelours", which is a portmanteau for "chelou" (Slang for weird) and "ours" which means bear
I just really like how it sounds and how the name didn't focus on how dangerous Bewear is supposed to be, but focused more on how downright strange the thing is

>>33298303
I like that Charmander's name in french is how us argentinians say dumb.

>>33298324
I still call Volcarona Urgamoth in my mind

Jap name doesn't evoke danger either, just roughly translates to "costume bear." Americans with their edge as usual.

>>33298875
I mean, "Bewear" was just such an obvious pun that I think the localizers felt like they couldn't choose not to do it.

What?

>>33298988
Maybe something with the localization budget ?
I mean I'm not sure for other countries, but the french localization team had to go and stay to Japan to present all their names idea for each Pokemon and wait for GF approbation to actually include them in the game.
That would explain the overall terrible spainish/italian translation they got that stuck with them until gen 6

>>33299036

DOUBLE AXE BATTLE DRAGON

>>33298528
I do like mimilop. Rolls a hint better than lopunny.
>>33298911
That does sound cooler than aggron.

>>33299036
it means happy eF-eM.
the name is based on FM (radio frequency)

>>33298988
Type: Null is the one exception.

Bullet Seed in Japanese is "Seed Machine Gun", so I prefer the latter because it sounds way cooler.

>"nah we should change it to razor she'll.

Why?

>>33299460
>Minccino and Cinccino's signature move is "Sweep Slap" in plain english
>because it's repetitively sweeping with its broom-like tail
>"hey dude let's make it Tail Slap and completely lose why it's the signature move of this Pokemon"

HGSS and Gen V had straight garbage English localizations.

>>33299480
Yeah. They slipped in bullshit that made no sense. Like trainers saying how tough it is to always act like their Trainer Class. Fucking what?

>>33298303
