Charizrd=flyus lizerdus, it has to be more creative like

Likitung=ambistoma lingua

ambistom= large/wide mouth, lingua=tung

I just have one thing to say...

You guys are DOING IT WRONG!
You should be doing it in LATIN. That's what scientific names are. ;)

Jigglypuff: Dominus toti

Shaymin: Ericius optimus

Firus, did you SERIOUSLY have to do that to shaymin?
jigglypuff makes sence
the only problem I see people having, is that they might not know ANYTHING that is latin. French, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, and LATIN, speakers would be the only ones with problems, but some of these should be interesting:)

I should've taken latin class a little more seriously >_>.
Yes, you should've. Latin is awesome, and is better than every other language.
...Well, that's my opinion anyways.

You probably like my Jigglypuff name.
Hint: it means master of all.

The thing is, Latin is the foundation of all of the romance languages (Spanish, French, Romanian, etc.) so even though I may not directly be learning one of those, it actually helps me.

And whether or not I'll use it more isn't important to me. I simply love the language.

Jynx:

Neccese Est Emo

No joke, "emo" is "to shop" in Latin.
"Neccese Est" is "It is neccesary".
Well, except you misspelled "necesse". :p
And if you want to get picky, it should be "emare", which is the infinitive.

...I'll stop nitpicking now, sorry, MK. It's a good name.

This is kinda lame considering for most of these, you just ad "us" to the end of it.

Valdemalum.....Wobbuffett

I'm not even sure what that means, I just used some lame English-Latin dictionary I have lying around for no reason. Nobody in my family even knows or took Latin 0.o
