C'mon, renaming Wargle to Braviary? I guess. Like "The Braves" and "Home of the Brave" and our country's bird being the bald eagle and such.

Brave + aviary.

I will never have an easy time pronouncing "Co***rigus" though.

I rofl'd at "Braviary".

No joke.
It's funny. It almost seems as if they don't want the word "war" in the name, even though, you know, America has been in about 5+ of them by now.

Though from Mudquaza.

I think "Bravian" would have been better than "Braviary", but that's just me. I'm still trying to figure out "Cof-agrigus". I think it might have the word "egregious" in it, meaning "bad".

Inb4 all the comments on Cof-agrigus gets GF's attention and the name is changed before release.

I'll always pronounce it coh-fa-grih-guss.

Makes the "***" stand out.

I don't care about their intentions.

I care about my way of saying it.

I think you think you know what you're talking about, but I clearly don't.

I feel like I'm being trolled right now but I can't be absolutely sure if you somehow didn't realize it :V

Also PIPA and CISPA
The fact that barely nobody got the reference imo means that the name is ok seeing as how obscure its sexual meaning is.

Besides, more people notice the obvious like how it's a combo of Snide + Ivy

EDIT:

And I still don't get why GF didn't listen to use and name the starters Smugleaf/Wotter/Baycon/Pignition/w/e instead :/

Has everyone decided which version they'll be getting? I still want black just because it sounds better (and black city looks more interesting than white forest) but Zekrom is such a badass. :(

I'm getting both. I actually tried to reserve both of them ages ago, but more recently when I was buying Pokémon Ruby as a present for one of my friends, they asked me if I wanted to reserve them and I told them I'd already reserved both. They checked just to make sure and it turned out that whoever had reserved them for me reserved two Blacks, for whatever reason.

But they fixed it for me, so I actually have both versions reserved now.

I believe I decided on Black as my "main" version, though.

Yeah, and Firus and I decided that we'd trade Lady Gaga (Gothilelle or whatever) and imitation Bloblax (Reuniclus) cuz I'm gonna be getting White :D

I think I'm getting white. I somehow managed to make up my mind in the last half hour.

Zekrom is truly a monster, and really, you'll be able to get the others through fair trades on the GTS (Lots of people want Gothilelle's for Reuniclus's and so forth).
I love Zekrom, and Firus loves Reshiram so we gooooood.

I don't think it's supposed to be offensive. Things that might be offensive in one country mean nothing in another, like how a *** is a cigarette over here ("Anybody got any ***s on them?") and a ****** is a food.

For example a poof is an offensive term for a gay guy over here, and purple is the universal gay colour, so you'd think things like this would be super offensive:



Yet nobody cares.
