You do know that this conversation comes with every generation, right? But a month after the release, the japanese names are forgotten, and everyone is happy.
Gosh calm down.
(And Wargle --> has the word 'war' in it. Wouldn't want to offend america, so let's make 'em "brave" instead)
But seriously, everyone hated the Gen4 names, but no one gives a shit now.
XD Same with gen3. And it'll be also like that for Gen6.
You can get mad about it, or just get used to it and move on ;)

This thread is very unfezant.
Anyways who cares about the species names. Just give them nicknames. You'll be fine.

Yea, people always do this. They act like every little thing about every new generation makes pokemon RUINED FOREVER!!!1!1111111111oneoneoneoneoneoneoneone. Seriously, no one will care. The generation I names were JUST as bad and punny, we're just used to them. Seriously, everybody needs to calm down.

Hey, You'll get used to it. Just keep calling them by the Japanese names if yoh like those better like me. xD or if you can't remember the english version.
I still call Ash Satoshi because I consider it his REAL name because it came from the Japanese...and well it IS Nintendo's show~ But whatever.
And you CAN nickname them like someone above me mentioned. So No reason to get all sweary over it. xD;

KLINK...KLANG...KLINKLANG: Well the Japanese name was GEAR. I ask you...which is better and more creative? Klink or Gear? It followed the same pattern in the Japanese version.
Elgyem? Not any stranger than "Riguree".
As for the "Ice Cream" Pokemon, I personally find them awesome to look at. They're one of those things that's so stupid you have no choice but to like it. xD I found the names rather clever, myself.
Also, Alomomola = Mola spelled backwards + o + Mola. It is based on the Sun Fish, which has the scientific name "Mola Mola".
Samurott = Samurai + ott from Oshawott's name. The "ott" is a reference to the fact that the Pokémon is in fact an Otter Pokémon.
I'll be honest, Volcarona is so much better than Ulgamoth. More creative.
And then Braviary, like Ari said, is basically a way around saying "War" in the name.
In the end, I really don't care about the ranting. It's the swearing I could do without. From what I can tell, this is supposed to be a PG-13 site...and a little bit of occasional swearing is understandable, but PLEASE refrain from using such language so much. It's painful on the eyes as well as the mind to have to read it all over. Honestly, that's almost as bad as Mariotehplumber on Youtube.

There was a lot of thought put into some of the names but it's not like they care if your don't appreciate them; who wins in the end? You who are buying the game regardless or them who sit back and reel in the dough?

The real winner is me shiro. Why? Well one day I'll become SHAMAN KING!

Yeah, some of the sprites seemed to be of low quality to me.
::cobalion::
I MEAN THIS...Just looks like it could've been made better.
::tynamo:: The most generic pose ever. Really boring.
::liepard:: Yes, I'm going there. It really just looks like one shade of purple, and it has a plain look. I know the sprites move and stuff, so it probably makes it look better in the games, but... xD

"As for the "Ice Cream" Pokemon, I personally find them awesome to look at.

Every time I look at it I want soft serve....>3>

What irritated me about the whole games was the fact they almost made it into a boys vs girls game. Besides that, the game names themselves are quite controversial.
...Oh, and Reshiram has a spiky penis.
::reshiram::
.....^ What... The futs...? Put some pants on, damn it.
...Oh wait, please don't. It'll be walking around with a huge erection if it does. Ignore me.
But the names are stupid in some cases. The whole "You'll get used to them" argument? I still haven't got used to Generation Four. Turtwig? Well, I love Mothim and Vespiquen's names, but some are just strange.
And now they bring out Pokemon with names like these:
::Roggenrola::
Roggenrola. "Rock and Roller"
::Yamask::
Yamask.
::Cofagrigus::
Cofagrigus...?
...Oh, and here's my favourite one to laugh at:
::Conkeldurr::
CONKELDURR
LULWUT? Were they drunk at that point?

...The whole Reshiram thing is just what your interpretation of a tuft of feathers looked like. That's like saying Swanna has breasts. If that's how your mind sees it then...well...I'll just stop going into that topic.
Yes, of course there will be names you don't like in every Generation. That's just how things go. But the real thing is: You have to take the good along with the bad.
But yes, I agree. I laugh so hard every time I see the name CONKELDURR. But it's so amazingly hilarious that now, while I used to dislike that Pokémon based on its sprite, I now love it because of its name. xD
And Cofagrigus? Strange sounding name for a strange Pokémon. Fits for me~

Yeah some of the names might sound like stupidest thing. And then you realize it's supposed to be punny. I mean there is a lot of Pokemon with really punny names. Aren't all names some sort of weird pun?
I do think so. At least to some extent. Now yeah Conkeldurr makes me lol a bit to much on the fail factor, but really we will all forget this and move on.

I doubt it on my behalf, but you guys probably will XD
This is the excuse I came up with: They were all drunk when they made the names. It must be correct! Conkeldurr, Sawsbuck (Which I love, but the name ruins) and Leavanny? BLARGH!

Well actually, the name Sawsbuck is very clever, in my opinion.
Summer - Autumn - Winter - Spring + buck, the name of a male deer. SAWS-buck
Leavanny is also a combination of Leaves and Nanny. Another rather creative name, in my opinion.
I think Conkeldurr was meant to be nothing but a hilarious name. xD I think they were trying to be funny when they made that one.

I thought they were trying to combine Conker and Durr (or Derp), which is kind of like an expression for stupidity.
Or "CONK", which is a sound effect for something getting hit...
Either way, when I first saw it...
