[Pogiforce-14]

i cn't read those symbols, E-A-U. They're just a bunch of boxes. :\

 

[Ryoutarou]

i cn't read those symbols, E-A-U. They're just a bunch of boxes. :\

It means then that your computer doesn't support Kana. You'll have to download a translater I think.

 

[Sunflorazumarill]

Does anyone notice that unlike everybody else, Erika's name is the same in Japanese?

 

[kohei]

Why is it: "Loreli Prima/Kanna"? Loreli's name is Kanna in Japanese.

>>Toothache:
There is a list of Japanese name of Pokemon here --> https://www.pokedex.jp/foreign/
I use this site to translate English Poke names to Japanese Poke names, since I play Japanese Pokemon and don't know English names -_-

 

[Skater Punk]

i cn't read those symbols, E-A-U. They're just a bunch of boxes. :\

WELL DONT CAMPLAIN I CANT READ IT EITHER IT IS JUST ALOUT OF BOXES ON MY COMPUTER TOO!!!!!! :(

 

[RoxasOld]

Does anyone notice that unlike everybody else, Erika's name is the same in Japanese?

I noticed that, too. I guess it's cause that was the only name in the Japanese one that had an 'American' name. So They left it. But they changed everyone elses name to make it more 'American'. I could be wrong, though XD

 

[Strawberry Delcatty]

What? No cat names?! Oh, never mind. I'll do it myself. Well, for the AG version anyway. :P

Ashmeow Nyatoshi
Brockmeow Nyakeshi
Maymeow Nyaruka

Wallymeow Nyisturu

Yes, I am obsessed with cats. VERY obsessed. I even wanted Flannery to be a cat girl once.

*gets cold looks* Okay, I'll stop my cat-loving insanity-nya.

 

[kohei]

This is quite random, but I've heard that all the names of the major characters comes from names of plants somewhere...

 

[NaVeR]

This is quite random, but I've heard that all the names of the major characters comes from names of plants somewhere...

Eh, really? Are you sure you aren't confusing that with the fact that the names of all the GSC series City's names were named after flowers (i.e. Goldenrod, Violet, etc.)?

RBGY Series = Stones
Example: Pewter, Cinnabar

GSC Series = Flowers/Plants
Example: Azalea, Blackthorn

RSE Series = No Apparent Pattern (nature in general)
Example: N/A

To stay on topic, I thought I should add that Minaki and Wataru are a couple of universal names; names that are used in more than one language, even though they're orignially from Japanese (i.e. Korean Manga/Anime calls Eusine/Lance Minaki/Wataru.

And in the Korean Anime/Manga Rocket Dan (Team Rocket; Rocket Gang) and Nurse Joy/Joi, retain their names. Apparently, the Japanese word for gang/group/team is "D(d)an," which is the same in Korean. Much like Yaksok, Korean and Japanese for "promise."

 

[kohei]

Ok, so I've foundout that:
Machisu = Clematis (some flower)
Takeshi = Take (bamboo)
Kyo = (kanji on-yomi of 杏 )
Anzu = (kanji kan-yomi of 杏 )

杏 = Some sort of bean plant

 

[Night]

The gym leader is Pryce, not Prince. LOL.

 

[Furaigon]

Well, they are in the games as well...

Max isn't. :P

Here are some I didn't see in the list:
Daisy - Sakura (And Violet and Lily are Botan and Ayame, I forget which one is which though.)
Duplica - Imite

 

[Maxim]

Who knows japanese names of Team Admins (Scott, Shelly, Tabitha and Courtney)?? I will be trying to post japanese names of Day Siblings and DJ's. Mary is Kurumi but I don't remeber remaining DJs...
