Let's post our favorite foreign Pokémon names.

I love the german name of Zygarde 100%, "Optimum-Zygarde".

Bulbizarre, Herbizarre and Florizarre since they don't fuck up on either Pokemon origins and Japanese name another one is Hinoarashi (cyndaquil) because it literally means fire mouse (rodent) and gets denialfags of the Chinese zodiac pattern btfo every single day.

They should just retcon the 10-character names, like Feraligator or Victreebell.

Mouse is nezumi.

Hinoarashi is a pun. "Hi no arashi" means "storm of fire", which then makes sense since Typhlosion's Japanese and English names are both "explosion" and "typhoon" meshed together.
Also, "yamaarashi" means porcupine, so it's likely Cyndaquil and Quilava are reverencing that.

The "Arashi" by itself means rodent (rat like) because semantic fields are a thing that if you're old enough to post here you should know already and the "Yama" is just an specification of the species as in mountainrat because go figure, it's a rat that looks like it has a mountain on it's back, it follows the same principle and thought process which calls the insect "Lampyridae" fireflies or lighting bug in English.
Not all Pokemon names come from just two puns, smartass.
