I played Pokemon in my childhood partly in german and french (when the german version was sold out). German was a hundred times better and more creative, but fucked a lot of the names up later in DiaPer and BW imo.

Since Gen 6, I always choose english over german, because the names are getting really unbearable in other languages.

They can't pronounce anything that isn't their version of "English", it's the most brain damaged country on the entire planet.

>Pokeymaan (Pokemon)

>Aenimay (Anime)
>Chan Lai (Chun Li)
>Raiyou (Ryu)
>Segett (Sagat)
>Reyqueizaah (Rayquaza)
>Waffles (Wuffels)

Their language and the pronouncement doesn't make any sense 99% of the time.

>Live
pronounce it right
protip: you can't if you don't know the context.
>My live is...
>I live in...

Trump just reflects pretty well what NA is.

austrian here. grew playing Pkmn Blue and Gold and as with everything, only some names are better in one language and vice versa.

Feraligatr is Impergator in german for example and some english native speakers like that better but it's a taste thing and a thing of understanding the language in the first place as well.

>>33299336
I don't think Pokewiki is more elaborate. I find the bulbapedia sites more interesting usually.

also, most names of protags and NPCs and all that are different in every other language. it gets confusing quickly. same meaning across the board or not.

I've been flirting with a girl from there lately and it's been good fun, wondering what other austrian's think of the place

But you're right about the names, it isn't absolute
As funny as Relaxo is, Snorlax feels like a better name, for example

I'm honestly not super-crazy about it or our mentality and hick-german dialects most of the time. then again I'm not your usual austrian dude either.

>I've been flirting with a girl from there lately and it's been good fun,

most girls I met were stuck-up, prudish, difficult to handle and terrible in general. I try dating german ones or slav girls instead. they are more approachable imo. but good luck with that girl.

like you read it, the problem is that murrican speakers can't read normal letters with their weird slangs. I can't write the pronouncing down.
When I say "I pronounce it Pikachu", you would still read it wrong. Just watch a random Japanese episode of pokemon and listen how ash/satisho says it, everyone in every language say it like that, just murrifags say it wrong.
