For Japanese names (they are in parentheses next to their respective English names):

>Beedrill (Spear)
>Flareon (Booster)
>Vaporeon (Showers)
>Jolteon (Thunders)
>Espeon (Elfie)
>Umbreon (Blacky)
>Articuno (Freezer)
>Zapdos (Thunder)
>Moltres (Fire)

How so? Not trying to instigate, just curious. It kinda reminds me of how Spiritomb is bound to the Odd Keystone.

What is his name again? I think it's named UOL or something.

Yeah, what >>24878522 said. What's wrong with the name UOL?

Its name leads you to believe it's part of the Oshawott line but that can't possibly be the case.

>>24878938
It is, unfortunately.

I remember when that name sounded like the weirdest thing ever. Now it's so commonplace I don't even remember how dumb it is.

>>24878530
You can't do worse than this. They took a pun that was incidentally in the word "seal," and then got rid of it. It's literally just a misspelling, and one that's worse than Throh and Sawk and Drowzee because it literally is just a seal.

At least with Dewgong they added a pun rather than removed one.

Fug you, Cofagrigus is a awesome concept, people say that "muh Haunter is scary", but cofagrigus is like something haunting your nightmares.

Golem is a rock being. Hence the name golem. There is nothing wrong with its name.

Golurk would've been a better example

ITT: These Poke's names are simple thus they are poor!

>>24878479
beedrill is also pretty shitty too

>>24883713
you got the idea pretty well

There is no defending seel.

Talonflame is called Fiarrow in nippon, Flambusard in frog. They could have done better, maybe keep the arrow theme.

>>24878501
Too clunky
