Default Rukario Revealed (english name actually)

Lucario, why did I not predict a translation of Rukario would be it's offical name. So, who wants to discuss this breaking news that I took lightly?

Actually, everyone pretty much already knew the english translation was Lukario, so it really isn't that breaking.

Well, it is interesting for me. I like hearing it. I liked the name Rukario better though.

I predicted that forever ago...

BTW, By the rules of Japanese phonics, Rukario is pronounced just the same way as the English Lucario...

Why do they need to change the name, despite Rukario sounding similar to Lukario?

Its english name is barely a translation of it's original name. NOA must be part of the "Lu club" (the Lu club are the ones who translated it as that).

The thing is, that despite everyone's "knowledge" it wasn't confirmed and people were under the impression we'd get a name change to something completely different. So I wouldn't say it's "old news".

By Nintendo of Japan, it was always romanised as "Lucario". NoA did, in reality, keep the original name (similar to how they did ALL the legendaries with the exception of the Legendary Birds, while some got similar-sounding names).

That's asking to be responded back at. So, back your statement, say what is "cheap" about them. If they weren't good, then the Pokmon games we get wouldn't be good either. -_-;

Same here. Rukario is the first pokemon who I'm using it's Japanese name, mainly just because I got used to it. Now the other 4th-gen pokemon, not so much.

****nit people, shut up about it being a Translation and liking Rukario over Lukario or whatever. You know why? Because in Japan, R and L have a similar sound. So Someone could be saying Royal Jelly, or Loyal Jerry, It's like Clashman/Crashman in Megaman, and Dr. Light/Right [ Although a lot of us like say Light. ] So guess what? Shut the hell up about you guys like Rukario over Lukario. It's the same thing. If you like your Lukario as Rukario or your Rukario as Lukario, good for you. It's the same thing. It's the same sound... So don't go blabbering about liking Rukario better. And don't say you're going to go by Rukario, because at one point you won't. Remember back then when Ruby and Sappihre were just revealed? We all called Treecko, Torchich and Mudkip. Kimori, Achamo and 'Something' Heck, what's up now? I see 'Torchic_4Ever' and not 'Achamo_4Ever'

Actually its kuririn, They thought it would be kulilin, but we decided to move the L's to be krillin and we added the r....
And besides why does everyone worship the english pokemon names, I don't care for them... As soon as a new ones released then fans start to use it....

I've Always Been Saying "Lucario". Ever since I Saw Romanized It In A Japanese Magazine I Read. It Took A Few Days To Get Used To It, Yes. Same With The Serebii/Celebi Thing, If Any Of You Remember that. Everyone Got Into A Huff About Serebii Being Celebi, But It Was Romanized Celebi. Rukario Is Lucario. Stop *****ing And Get Used To It.

I didn't mean it that way.... I meant as in people just choose to use the names of the pokemon in english soon as "bonsly" was announced it had been taking over in the threads now...

Yeah they have decided that it is Lucario and if he wants to type like that he can. If its against the rules, he will stop not if you say so. Anyway, according to what I have heard offcially Lucario.

Give me a link to an official source that says Rukario's English name is Lucario. Then I'll believe that Lucario is the official translation. And typing in that way isn't against the rules, it's just annoying.
