Malva's Japanese name is Pachira, a species of flower. Plumeria and Guzma are also named after flowers. Plumeria has pink hair like Malva. Are they related?

All the important characters are named after plants and flowers in Japanese. Not just the Professors.

Malva's English name is also a flower. Literally EVERYONE is a flower. Where've you been for the past years?

I get the whole professors are trees thing but...
for the rest of them are you sure it's not just because plants are one of the most diverse things on the planet besides microbes that plants have just about every single name you could possibly think of already?

I mean, I never would have thought that LANCE or MISTY were plant names but they are.

Unrelated question, how are you supposed to pronounce Hau ? English is not my native language and no matter how I read it, it sound weird

That's like... a tiny fraction of all characters. Even if you're just counting gym leaders, elites, champions, and villains.

Also like half of those strike me more as having a name themed after something completely different and there just happens to be a flower with that in the name because >>28570204

I pronounce it like the word how. I don't know if that's correct, though.

Oh I see, I thought it was pronounced like "Ha-u" or "Ha-oo", "How" is still weird but it's better
Thanks

Japanese characters are named after plants, and it's well known among Japanese pokemon fans
Many of pokemon character names are weird for human name
Matsuba(Morty)= leaf of pine tree
Shikimi(Shauntal)=Illicium anisatum

They name characters really carefully
For example,
Homika(Roxie) is strychnine tree
It contains poison
Kyo(Koga) and Anzu(Janine) share same kanji 杏(apricot)
Dent(Cilan), Pod(Chili) and Corn(Cress) are named after Dentcorn and Podcorn
