I would show you the replay, but it had an error while uploading so I don't have it. Any similar stories?

So google translate has a pokemon move and ability list?

Why would you make up a story like this? It's not even interesting.

Even then it wouldn't work because most French attack names are portefeuille words which wouldn't be translated correctly.

I once started a team with Ninjask as my lead, meant for OU.
The first match I began with this team, my opponent sent out Rhyperior and then disconnected immediately.
I don't even know what to think.

Bulldoboule is Steamroller, Cradovague is Sludge Wave, CoupVictoire is V-Create, Croc de Mort is Hyper Fang, Croc Fatal is Super Fang (which in itself is stupid since they pretty much mean the same thing).

If google translate didn't translate, I'd Google it. And some were just obvious (danse draco, seisme, dracolosse)

You realize you could easily figure out imperfect translations via context right?

It helped that I took GCSE French so translating became slightly easier.

You can just open up the french version of Bulbapedia and do it. I am playing a french rom of Platinum to practice my French and I use it for the more complicated move names
