This is obviously not a Thunder, but a Lightning. Why the fuck it was called that way and why were stuck with bad translation?

Thunder is just the sound of lightning, so if lightning struck 10 feet away you would be as deaf as you were blind.
Don't worry about it.

Pokémon has always had an autistic localization team. What do you want us to say? Go ahead and post a hundred other stupid localization examples and the answer will be the same.

For the same reason we have "Grass-type", and being on fire is called "a burn".

Are you stupid? A burn is a wound from exposure to high heat or fire. The status effect in Pokemon is depicted as being actively on fire. Would you say "this house has a burn", or "this house is on fire"/"this house is burning"?

In any other game it's called "on fire"

I'm literally correct though. Everyone here has played these games, and everyone here knows that the animation for a burn (except in gen 1) is a little fire appearing over the Pokemon's sprite.

No, that's not true. It's called "kaminari" in Japanese, which is a fairly broad term that can mean both thunder and lightning.

The translator 100% fucked up, "Lightning" would've been the correct translation. What happened was probably that he was translating with no context given and may not have even known this was the name of a Pokemon move.
