And Urobos is an English speaking region so Spanish technically has nothing to do with it (although there are elements of it scattered about).
Agreed that Midas is probably the best name so far. Nice bit of foreshadowing as well.
Clash !BMy7CLasHA
>>11944271 I meant just the names... the survey is sort of useless at this point since it doesn't follow any of how the names surveys should go and you missed a bunch of names. I suggest leaving the name surveys to Dunky and Hat who have been doing them. They have been following the same basis and make sure not to miss any names. Plus having too many names surveys going on at once instead of just one survey covering a few different lines has worked better.

It may be way too late to air this idea, but I thought I'd at least put it out there. I'd like to see the game start with the region largely unexplored, but controlled by the evil team. Where normally the MC would fight through gym leaders, here they fight lieutenants of the evil organization. Every time a leader is defeated, the team's buildings in the area are converted into homes and buildings for settlers in the region.

maybe orett could be an encounter in a special room in the castle or something
also the oil rig thing is cool, but I think an industrial factory would be more appropriate given we are talking about the 1800's and the industrial revolution
I don't think they had oil rigs back then. plus it gives us a place to put magnitore and cerebulb prevo as a wild encounters
or we could have both, and have Erion flee to the industrial plant/factory after the admin is defeated
Erace should appear at the top of the observatory when his admin is defeated. (this area would preferably be inaccessible until later in the game)

Also: coquista de oro: literally: the conquer of gold.

Here's my draft for Fantasmare:
"It's said that if anyone tries to ride it, both FANTASMARE and it's rider will vanish into the mist, never to be seen again."
The wording bothers me. English is not my native language, so my grammar is kinda shit.
As for the prevo, it was suggested that it's often seen in the early morning fog, walking over the surface of lakes without leaving as much as a ripple.
Another idea is that it's overcompensating for it's disturbing appearance by behaving overly cutesy and affectionate. Not sure if I like that one, to be honest.

Foreign words shouldn't really be a problem. Conquista isn't that hard to read after all, is it now? And, since we can all read Pokemon-Names (which aren't in any language, technically) this shouldn't be a challenge, even for you.
The pronounciation is like without the '. if you can find a way around it, good for you, if not, then I think the problem is you.

This is mimicking a 'general' Pokemon game. So yes, we are concerned with the traditions.
Yes foreign words are a problem. Random insertion of them distracts. There needs to be a good reason for it. 'It sounds cool' is not a good reason.
Pokemon names are different precisely because they're fabricated.
This game is made by English speakers and is primarily for English speakers. Randomly throwing in Spanish not only looks and sounds odd, it also throws off the game. Explain why the evil team have a Spanish name but nobody else speaks Spanish. Explain why even the members of the evil team don't speak Spanish.
I'll do it for you: because this is a game for English speakers. Unless there is a damn good reason (like that house of foreigns in Unova or the explicitly foreign characters) then we don't slap foreign words around.

Also, the reason you can't process idiocy is because, like conquistador, it has foreign roots

>>11945714 Aye-aye-aye. It doesn't confuse me. You're struggling to separate real life from the design process. What you don't do is needlessly complicate things. That means limiting the amount of languages you chuck around. Only use them when they are necessary (which means either you've got a foreign character or specifically require that a foreign language be used). This is BASIC design. You need to explain why we need a foriegn name for this team when it not only flies in the face of good design but also has no link to the character behind this group.
The more you attack me on a personal level, the more you betray that you have no argument outside of 'I like it and it links to South American history' (which a) has no guaranteed bearing on Urobos and b) has nothing to do with Northington who is not from the region).
Ultimately the reasons not to use this name (unnecessary foreign words and no link to Northington the ego tripper) outweigh the benefits of 'sounds cool and history of SA.' because both of the pros are not exclusive to this name and can be achieved elsewhere, without the cons.

The name conveys exactly what the team is about, there is a good reason right there. It isn't because it sounds cool and nobody has asserted as such. There have been cases of foreign language inserted in pokemon games constantly, as one anon mentioned early, Fantina, the german fisherman, etc, etc.

>>11945009 I don't see how "200 base speed" means anything objectively. It literally just means it can go first at a cost to it's other stats.
Arguing if this is unfair is a moot point since this is a single player game.
This pokemon suffers for its speed by having lower other stats.

I don't see why you insist that it is unrelated over and over despite it quite clearly being related.
Disliking the name is one thing, actively being cognitively dissonant to try and make argument against it is another.

The name suggested isn't Conquistador btw. It's Conquista d'oro. So yes, it is outside of the vocab of anyone who hasn't studied Spanish (or similar).
>conveys exactly what the team is about This is not a unique selling point nor much of a selling point.
>Cases of foreign language Read what I said. It needs justification. If the character is foreign, it makes sense. Northington is explicitly English speaking so it makes no sense for his team to use Spanish. You'll notice that Burgh doesn't chat in Italian and Brock didn't break into Russian.

Of course I can put the words together but that doesn't make a difference. We can't have the Pocketm'n Leg Au and just say 'If you can't read Pokemon League I'll be surprised.'
It isn't the same as a Pokemon name pun. It's the name of a group of people. It has different rules.

Again: If you say South-America is not relevant, then neither is northingtons origin
We do not NEED a foreign name, but given the fact that they are a bunch of people, (aka "Bad guys") coming into a region looking for gold, a resemblance to the Conquistadores is obvious, even when ignoring the geographical resemblance to SA. The term good design is about as subjective as can be. Play on words has been a tradition in Pokemon. Yes, mostly in the names of Pokemon and cities, however I believe that the autonomy we have in creating our own game allows for more flexible use of it. The fact that Northington is an ego tripper can be underlined if we name his troop in way that does, by no means, bring up similarities with the boss, showing him as a puppetmaster, using his troop only to achieve his own goals, not caring for the dynamics in it.
Also, ultimately, I think we forget that the argument of "i like how it sounds like" is actually valid. After all, Historical as well as rethorical or stylistic correctness should come second. First comes the reception of a name by the people playing it. Which in my case, would be positive.

in the same way, we get that
and then for anything that is foreign sounding within the game, they give a foreign tongue within our context (so french, german, etc)

What does that even represent?

>>11947279 We're just coming up with a name so I can edit the infograph with the officially surveyed one. And I dunno what the process will be with voting in individual concepts, but right now is all about getting the infograph, which contains all the details pertaining to the evil team plot, perfected.

We can't have an evil team name survey until we have a final evil team survey.

>>11947283 Aura meaning:
a derivative of the latin word "aurum" meaning "gold".
a use of latin to represent the arrogance of Northington and his English allies.
the physical representation of a cosmic body.
What's your idea, hotshot?

Can someone do an edit of the fire starter's last stage so his eyes are somewhat covered by his eyelids?
something like

>http://archives.bulbagarden.net/wiki/File:323Camerupt.png I feel this would give the Pokemon more personality and a stern, but intimidating look to it.

>>11947355 why not simply team aurum then? why beat around the bush? aura connotes a completely different definition from arrogance and gold.

Here's a poll.

>>11947410 Aurum means gold which is what criminals want: money, power. Think James Bond: Auric goldfinger. classic criminal.
i'd say its pretty relatable to criminals. "Aura" seems too innocent and not menacing at all. It's not really a malevolent word.
Evil Team Guy !!ufMDSzFN+gz
>>11947388 I said before that the infograph is totally subject to change. I'm gonna redo the whole thing so it assumes less, but in order for it to not come off as awkward, I thought I'd get a consensus on what they should be called. That's the approach I'm choosing to take, anyway. My goal is to get a nice looking infographic together which can be surveyed and beat out the competition.
Also, the final list before I open the survey:
>Aurum >Conquista >Oro >AGC >Discovery >Northington >Midas >Aura Good to go? Also, when should I close it?

>>11947450 Well then why not just name it Team Gold if all we're trying to convey the idea of wealth and power. I know >muh gamefreak mistakes, but what did Rocket signify? And should we repeat the mistake of being too open and frank with the name, like Aqua or Magma? Galaxy and plasma were a step in the right direction, their meanings were connotative and implicit. Aura accomplishes the same with multiple meanings. Aurum is just latin for gold.
And if you're deadset on Aurum, Oro is a better choice than that.
>>11947465 Make sure to give a summary of what each name means and why it's there.

>>11947498 I'd say "Team Gold" would be equivalent to the Team Aqua/Magma concept.
But I'm open to hearing about what the other team names signify. What does Oro represent? AGC?

>>11947450 >>11947392 Beacuse Team Aurum sounds bad and doesn't mean anything in English. Rocket, Galactic, Plasma, Magma and Aqua all roll off the tongue a bit better and have English meanings. Aurum is a latin word.
Something loosely related to gold. Team Luster or something.
Anonymous
>>11947536 Oro is the spanish word for gold, and the rational I had when I coined it was that Northington and co would be working under the guise of trying to find the golden city to give Urubosians a huge resource of gold "for the good of mankind, of course", and used a spanish name to help in that endeavor to relate to the locals.
Aura is still a better name.

>>11947622 You should close it right fucking now, because it is in fact not survey time. We have not definitively decided what our evil team is, so it's simply not possible to effectively name the team yet.
Furthermore, it should be a ranking survey.

Quoted By:
>>11947665 I remain in my opinion that Aurum works better than Aura. It is simple and clearly represents the riches that the team is after. Aura may be derived from Aurum but it word takes on an entirely different definition of its own, that's incongruous to the team's intentions. Aurum is simple, not as blatant as "Gold," and clearly represents the teams desires.
The other point I saw about Aura was that the leader is full of himself. In that case, Team Northington would be better suited, than Aura. Aura has little to do with being full of oneself. Even if you're saying the team is a metaphor for his "aura," using his literal name is a stronger metaphor, because it is also literal.

>>11947735 It's not an official survey. It's just my personal poll to find out what people's favorite proposed name is so I can perfect my infograph for an official survey down the road. Calm down.

>>11945577 Although I'd personally prefer if we just remained anonymous, that's certainly a possibility.
Another suggestion is to have Dex's person (she hasn't presented her yet), a local girl who is obsessed with finding El Dorado, run the team, and Northington would be off on the side supplying her with the money and forces necessary.

Right now, on the infograph, they're not given a name. That way, we can choose one for them later or not at all. They don't even need a name, really.

And so its not completely wasted (since each leader will have their own remix), maybe we could make it possible to double battle some leaders for rematches and the generic leader theme could play.
