Where did you hear that from?Emboar is currently the name of the third evolution though (unless it's all one big plot to fool us poor users who can't read Japanese!) So Pokabu having it too would be impossible. XD;
I like it alot too I'm glad I came up with it :)Oooh I like that a lot. It sounds something like "abyss" which... the word itself is nice to say, so if it's Ivyss (although unlikely ;;), I'm all for it.
Since the name is 'Enbuou' which comes from 'en' (flame), 'bu' (part of 'buta' - pig) and 'ou' (king) I think Emboar is as close as you can get to the original while still making sense in English. I like it. I hope they use it.I know Serebii had it listed and others said the name originally mentioned directly translated to Emboar, I... don't know, I'm in the middle with it. I'd like Emboar to be the actual name, but then again, if it isn't real, it doesn't really matter too much to me, just as long as the name has something to do with fire, really.
Yes, please. I can't think of a better name, but I just don't like this.And as long as Tsutaaja isn't Smugleaf.
Tsutarja: Sepleaf (neoseps + leaf)
Janoby: Skivy (skink + ivy)
Jaroda: Snaking (snake + king)
Pokabu: Piglit
Chaobu: Pignite/Pignition
Enbuoo: Boarbeque (I really have know idea, but this is the best I can come up with, lol.)
Mijumaru: uh...
Futachimaru: ah...
Daikenki: I got nothing.
Mijumaru is becoming my favorite of the starters, but is also the hardest to name. I have a strong feeling they won't go with Wotter. That's like naming a fire-type bat pkmn [S-HIGHLIGHT]Vire (vampire + fire.)[/S-HIGHLIGHT] I get that the pun is that it sounds so much like the type, but that's also why it's a horrible name. I'm loving Smugleaf, though. :)
Where did you hear that from?
Odd it sounds like Ember which would match better Pokabu as the fire theme in the name always gets more intense for example Torchic (torch) Combusken (Combust) and Blaziken (Blaze), then there is Chimchar (char) then Monferno and Infernape are both (inferno)
I was think of it around the lines of Ember, Flame, inferno like the flames such heat up or something...
The only name I think that can match the "gradual intensity upon evolution" theme regarding past Fire-types is the name Pignition for Enbuoo. Ignition would refer to the start of a vehicle or aircraft (a very significant event in some cases) and the start of a new, powerful evolution. Evolving into the final stage, I figure, would be very significant for Fire-type starters... It is for me, anyway! :P
(For me, Porkabu/Pokabu would reference pokapoka, warmth circulating within the body, something little that fits the first stage. Then you have the gradual progession to Pignition, implying the starting of something powerful. Emboar for Pokabu's second stage seems a bit...strange to me, sort of.)
Since the name is 'Enbuou' which comes from 'en' (flame), 'bu' (part of 'buta' - pig) and 'ou' (king) I think Emboar is as close as you can get to the original while still making sense in English. I like it. I hope they use it.
Yes, please. I can't think of a better name, but I just don't like this.
I would prefer Snivy, definetly NOT smugleaf. I hate that name.
