Poorly designed too

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?

>Blacky

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.

>>24878470
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.

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

>>24883713
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
