Favourite Non-English Pokémon Names
« on: December 04, 2011, 19:18 »
Yup, just what the title says. I grew up with the German pokémon names and some of them are just fantastic, so here's a list of my favourites:

Glumanda (Charmander)
Shiggy (Squirtle)
Quapsel (Poliwag)
Austos (Cloyster)
Aquana (Vaporeon)
Lavados (Moltres)

Endivie (Chikorita)
Karnimani (Totodile)
Blubella (Bellossom)
Papungha (Jumpluff)

Papinella (Beautifly)
Kappalores (Ludicolo)
Tengulist (Shiftry)
Eneco (Skitty)
Zobiris (Sableye)
Lepumentas (Claydol)

Panflam (Chimchar)

Felilou (Purrloin)
Kleoparda (Liepard)
Vegimak, Grillmak and Sodamak (Pansage, Pansear, Panpour)
Somniam (Munna)
Folikon (Swadloon)
Mollimorba (Gothita)
Quabbel (Frillish)

I also happen to like Paenteom as the Korean word for Gengar a lot.

That's it, I think. What are yours?

Denchura.

Galvantula in Japanese. I much prefer that name to Galvantula, but that's just me.

I also like the French name for Growlithe; Lupe.

I was traded a French Growlithe by my friend and I loved it =]

Shiggy is the best the rest of this topic is redundant 
 
well, Mysdibule is quite good 
Mawile's French name. 
 
unfortunately none of Chandelure's names are as good as its English one. 
perhaps Syangdella comes close.

The Chinese name for Charmander, Siu Fo Long (or 小火龍), which literally translates to 'Small Fire Dragon'.
It's quite cute when you say it ;;

Riolu > Rioreu
Riolu > Lì Ōu Lù
Zorua > Joroa
Zorua > Suǒluóyǎ / Suǒluóyà
Rotom > Motisma
Rotom > Luò Tuō Mǔ

Eh.... I would have done Rotom's Korean name but, it's the same thing.
