Hey there, Poke Center citizens! Are you psychic, but people just won't take your word for it? Do you think you might have ESP, but don't have a way to test it? Or maybe you just like speculating about things?

If you answered yes to any of the above questions, this is the thread for you. Welcome to the official Zook-brand Black & White Name Prediction Contest! In this thread, you get your chance to prove your guessing skills by taking a stab at what the names of the 5th Gen Pokemon will be when dubbed in English.

The rules (for now) are as follow:

1. ABOSOLUTELY NO SPAM. This isn't a social room, and spam will not be tolerated. Spam will be reported, and if it gets out of hand, the thread will be closed. And you don't want to be remembered as the guy who got that awesome thread shut down, amiright?




2. Users must compile a list in order to be counted as a constestant.* You can speculate with others for as long as you want, but none of your guesses count until you post your list of names. To submit your list, you must do the following:
  • Make a post that starts with your username, followed by 'list.' (ex. Zook's list)
  • List the number of the Pokemon you are predicting (in the Isshu dex), followed by your prediction for that Pokemon's name.
That's about it. If you have any questions, feel free to ask.

Have fun, guys!

Q&A

Q: Will there be any prizes?
A: Maybe. I want there to be, but we'll see. It could be anything from a title change to some Zook art, I dunno.

Q: When is the deadline for my final list?
A: Whenever they start releasing official names. Once that happens, you aren't allowed to go back and edit your list.

Q: Can I edit my list before that?
A: Sure.

Q: Do I have to guess a name for every Pokemon?
A: Nope.

Q: Can I start out with a final list, and just update it as the contest goes on?
A: Yes. In fact, I'll change the name to avoid confusion.

* If you wish for your list to be secret, you may do so by just PMing me your list.

Wait, so is the plan for everyone to list all of the pokemon and then predicted names next to them and you're gonna check through each one, to the letter to see who did the best? sounds time consuming on your part but if you're doing it, might as well edit this post later with predictions :)

Or are there a limited number of pokemon we can guess?

You don't have to guess every single name, just whichever Pokemon you want.

I believe Meguroko will be Crocodune. That, or one of its evolutions. :3 I demand it.

And if I'm wrong, I have a nickname for it.
