That's because Nintendo doesn't feel like actually making scientific names (as it would be too much work to actually make such a thing). That, or they think it would overwhelm the children. The price we pay for them wanting to keepin' it kid-friendly and idiot proof. That, or they haven't really considered it. I'm really voting for the former two, though. *sigh* Honestly, sometimes I wish they'd just go all out.I don't think pokemon names are modeled after our own classification system either way, because...well... it doesn't really resemble it whatsoever. It's just a bunch of unique names for different creatures. They don't even give different versions of 'the same' pokemon a different name like we would.
I guess when I think of it that way either way is correct if you want to take artistic license. >___>;
