What's your favorite foreign Pokemon name? Mine's Shuckles german name which is Pottrott. I think it sounds like Kakarot. Even named one of my shuckles Kakapott.

Mincinno's Japanese name is Chillarmy, it's pretty cool. I don't know a lot of them though, but that's probably the one I like best from what I do know.

Since I'm French, I'll take it the other way. There's not really a Pokémon name that I prefer in English, rather characters: Grant instead of Lino, Falkner instead of Albert, Phoebe instead of Spectra, or Pryce instead of Frédo.

Note that there are two names in German that I consider to be superior to every other language.
Twindrake City > Janusia >>> Opelucid City.
Siegfried >>> Lance = Peter

Rexillius sounds cooler than Tyrantrum too, tantrum just sounds like a spoilt brat which Tyrunt was but for a "king" like Tyrantrum it just kind of drops its cool points a little.

As a german I have to agree. We do have some nice ones and those are among the better. Siegfried comes from the Niebelungen Saga hero who slew Fafnir and not the Soul Calibur (I'm guessing that it's supposed to be him,right) character.

Favorite moonland pokayman name is Runpapa (Ludicolo) since it rolls nicely off your tongue. Favorite german pokemon name is funnily enough Unratütox (Trubbish) and I have no idea why. I like the sound of it.
Other humans I like are Kamilla (Elesa) and my absolutely being Brix (Brendan). Pic very related.

>>18973383
I still prefer Geraldine over Skyla. But that's just me.

If we're including humans, some are a huge improvement. Example striaton bros english names are Cilan, Chili and Cress.
Their german names in respective order: Benny, Maik, Colin. Relatively normal names.
Then I hear their italian names: Spighetto, Chicco, Maisello. What were they thinking?

>Relatively normal
Maik is actually pronounced just like Mike and is semi common in german, which makes them three completely normal names, unlike the english ones.
Their german names are apparently a nod to Maiskolben (corncob)

>>18973167 and >>18973383 here.
Don't worry, Anon from across the Rhine, I know Siegfried and the Niebelungen Saga, I'm a huge germanic/norse myths fan. I just took a pic of Schtauffen because I think he's one one of the most badass characters in SC along with Nightmare (I fucking love knights in full-plate armor holding two-handed swords) and because he's somehow a nice shoot-out to the hero.

There are also two names that are somehow noticeable in German, and they kinda are related to dragons. You guys sure love dem dragons, ja?
-Glurak for Charizard, that's kinda awesome, it reminds me of the Graoully, the dragon of Metz in Lothringen.
-UHaFnir, what the fuck is that name with capitals and lower case letters mixed?

Chicco is the abbreviaton of Francesco (but it also mean "grain"), Spighetto comes from well, SPAGHETI!.jpg, Maisello is actually a neapolitan second name, at least from what i remember, and it's obvious that comes from "mais", wich means corn
