Oh hell no..snd of all things NY had to be Koffing?! The first evolution?! That's not right..XD Well as long as they changed it..XD
Anyway its amazing how bad the original names were, of course I know they were done by a Japanese person, or persons..it seems so obvious..

 

[Light_Azumarill]

Ah, I thought that Pikablu was something fan-made. However, one can never be too sure. -_-

NY and LA? Um... that would get really stupid after a while. Though it is funny. I much prefer Koffing and Wheezing.

Erm... Orphon? Yeah, I think I like Cubone better. >_>

 

[Kung Fu Ferret]

Sceptile was orignally called "Forestroy"

 

[Digi-Chocobo Mage]

Did you know that Vulpix is called Rokon in Japan?

 

[Geometric-sama]

Rock on Rokon!

"Tungtyd" makes me laugh...
