US names of all D/P pokemon

[Volt Tackle]

I'm aware this is a few days old, but I haven't seen a thread about it. All US names for the new pokemon have been leaked, enjoy.

Hey thanks! I didn't notice.

But some of the JP names are better than US ones.

for example, the only starter-name I like is Turtwig.

Hmm the first thing I thought when I saw this for the first time last week was "Whoever thought of the name Lickilicky needs to go jump off a building. Like, now." Seriously. Wtf? Lickilicky? Some of them are bad enough, but the fat round ball takes the cake.

It was in the D/P update thread recently, not to mention most fans would have probably known anyway.

Diaruga -n- Parukia's names in the US version = Phail

Turtwig was already known for a few weeks. Dialka and Palkia were already announced a month ago. Nothing new there.

Lickilicky is probally the weirdest thing I ever heard. I would expect something like Lickvis (From Lick and Elvis, looking at his head). Nosepass's evo has a bad name too, I wanted Nosetasche =.=. Honchkrow... Why not Donkrow? Rhyperior, like, wtf! Rhyhorn--> Rhydon--> Rhyperior. Doesn't sound nice eh?
Some names are nice, but most of them are just dissapointing me. Luxray, Stunky, Yanmega, Mamoswine and Dusknoir are really nice. Leafeon and Glaceon were to be expected, same goes for Gliscor.

Overall, I'm dissapointed. I expected beter names, oh well...

I hate how they named the new supposed ultimate threat to the metagame, GARCHOMP. wtf?

Believe him. He is serious.

Some names really sound weird when translated. We will just have to get used to it... or get on the nickname business.

Pokemon # 420 FTW... CHERUBI!!!

English names fail. I'll change their names right after catching them.

Well, it was one of two "ultimate threats" to the metagame. The other being that 125/125/115 atk/satk/spd psychic legend that gets freaking scheme+explosion.

Gaburaisu did not deserve such an awful name. Gaburaisu or Gablias (the name a lot of people on smogon have been using for it) would be better any day than Garchomp...

You mean Azelf.

At least Azelf >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Garchomp in name.

I agree. What genious came up with that idea?
