    Bomberman, I've got a picture of him right here:
    [PokeCommunity.com] Electivire
    The Top would be Elekible and bottom would be Lucario, but Electivire is seemingly Elekibles name in english.

    But we really need an announcment to tell us the truth light trainer.
     
    Nothing really important really. I mean personity I like the Japanese name since it was shorter but what I can I do to change it? Intretesting name and cleaverly made up.

    Seconded what Samson said. Can't wait to beat them up. (It makes the battle much more personal if I know the name of the pokemon I am beating up.)
     
    The english names really suck this time. Chatot? Electrivire? Dialga? Palkia? WTF?! ._. I'll be nicknaming all my Pokemon their japanese names.
     
    What's the correct pronounce of the Pokémon Electivire? Sorry, but I am italian ^^
     
    Marco_Masato the way to say it is

    E-LECT-i-vire

    umm anyways I like this Pkmn and its name

    Thank you, Qeen boo *_*
    Electivire is too cool, but other USA names... no, they are bad... ._.!
    For example, Dialga and Palkia... or Buizel... Buoysel is the best ._."

    No they aren't. What gave you that idea? The japanese names are Diaruga and Parukia which sound MUCH better.

    Just a quick explanation. The Japanese alphabet consists of syllables. Not letters that bend and change like ours. So if say, you wanted to say Chad using the Japanese language, it would become Chiyado. It's still exactly the same name just spelt using Japanese characters. Also, the u is Diaruga and Parukia is pronounced pretty fast. I'd dare say you'd barely pick it up. This is noticeable in names such as Asuka and Sasuke. You don't pronounce them ASOOOHKAH or SASOOOOHKAY, right? So with that in mind, Diaruga and Parukia are pronounced exactly the same as Dialga and Palkia, of course it's up to how Japanese you want to be and make your l sound like an r.

    Also Electivire is a pretty righteous name.
     
    Bleh...Elekible sounded better...Much better.

    ......Watch the english dub of Naruto and you'll get the idea.

    It's the same with Buizel v. Buoysel *looks at Marco_Masato*. They're pronounced EXACTLY THE SAME. It's getting annoying how many idiots people are arguing which is better when they're the same name >.>;.
     
    But I'm just saying that Diaruga and Parukia sound MUCH MUCH better than Dialga and Palkia. I'll nicknaming them Diaruga and Parukia for sure. Same for Electrivire to Elekible.
     
    So I can't have an opinion on names. Thanks. I'll be naming my Dialga Diaruga and Palkia Parukia. Why? Because I prefer those names. Dialga and Palkia just don't sound right to me. Electivire isn't all that good either. Elekible just fits it better. All imo.
     
    I think it should have been called Elecable or Elekable. (Electricity and Cable obviously).
     
    Actually, Electivire is better than what I thought that name it. They did a good job of combining words. (Electric+Volt+Wire=Electivire)

    When that opinion is one name sounding better than another when in reality the sound the same, no you can't.
