Another question.

If Kalos is France and their language, presumably French, is represented by the player's native language, why is Amie still in non translated French?

Well, they say things like "Bonjour" or "Maison". Maybe French a dead language (like Latin) but people throw it in their sentences anyway. Either way I have no fucking clue

not like languages, particularly english, don't borrow from other languages all the time. could just be based on the fact that pretty much everyone knows what "amie" is, so it could be like calling it "pokemon-amigo" [though mon ami makes more sense because it'd be "mi amigo"] but w/e point still stands.

"hasta la vista, baby"
"sayonara!"
"mocha latte"

could just be how the language happened to evolve in kalos.
