I like the English names a lot better for almost all of them. Kangama and Tentoxa fit the themes a little better though Kangaroo-mama and toxic-tenticles.

I remember going to Germany and how funny it was not being able to talk about pokemon when I was asked by a classmate.
we were talking about Gen 1 and he was like:
-Chari-zaurd? Wtf?
-The big orange dragon, Alter
-OOOOOHHHH, Glurak du meinst Glurak?
-What the fuck kind of World is this..?

I don't think so, anon.
austrian /vp/er here.

eg. Lickitung sounds way cooler than Schlurp.
you just basically cherrypicked the names you think sound best.

we'd have to judge ALL the names before we can say anything. some names sound better in german though. Koffing = Smogon. Smogon sounds way better. Sarzenia is also a cooler name. but as I said, those are just some.

I haven't payed much attention to the German versions of the main games for so long that I can't remember most of the Pokémon names since gen 5. I know most of the newer Pokémon's names in English because of serebii and /vp/. Especially in BW I had to look the Pokémon up often because I had no clue what's what.
Luckily, I'll be in the UK in November, so I'll buy the English version of sun_ and later the German version of the other.
Oh and I bought Pearl, because back then, the English versions would be released earlier than the German.

eF eM can also be written as "FM" which is short for frequence modulation and hints at the pokemon using sound waves.

UHaFnir is a combination of UHF (ultra high frequence) and Fafnir (similar how noivern has part of "wyvern" in its name)

But I agree that these two names are shit

Glurak is the ONLY one I'll accept, only because it sounds like Gulac.

Germoney never got the memo that "mixing two words and making them shorter" isn't cool, just efficient.

one of the worst is Woingenau (Wobuffet)

Wohin genau = where exactly

and since i know what's the meaning behind the japanese name - it's even worse! because not one scene in the anime with him makes the same "comedic" sense

Well, to be fair, none of the western localizations did Wobuffet right. Most of them went for a portmanteau name that features the punchingbag theme, in that regard the german name is actually the closest to the japanese usage as his name is at least a phonetic joke on a conversational phrase.

Bauz and Wuffels are fucking cute 10/10 portmanteau names, but then you have stupid shit like Kosturso (Bewear) again where they could have at least tried to come up with a pun instead of going the lazy route.
