Pokemon B&W: English Names

Ok, so the new region and three starters just received some English names, as well as the classification and abilities of the two legendary cover beasts Reshiram and Zekrom. What we have been calling the region of Isshu will now be known as Unova, which sounds pretty cool I think. Reshiram, the white colored beast that can be obtained in the Black Version, is classified as the Vast White Pokemon with the ability Turbo Blaze. The black colored beast Zekrom which can be obtained in the White Version, is classified as the Deep Black Pokemon, with the ability Teravolt.

To cap everything off we have the three starters:
  • Grass: Tsutarja is called Snivy in English (Snake + Ivy)
  • Water: Mijumaru is Oshawot (? + Water?)
  • Fire: Pokabu is Tepig (Tepid + Pig)
Personally I would have called Mijumaru Wotter, and that's EXACTLY what I am going to nick name the little guy once I get one to hatch, because I'm going to start with Snivy once White releases here. What do you guys think of all the English naming? visit the Pokemon Black and White website for more fun!

That otter, the symbol on it's belly... Maybe you're better off if you can't see it.
Shame on those perverted Pokemon designers... devil

Here's a (SFW) comic about it, and it's explained in the quotes of the forum post. I think I've said enough. whistle

What I figured. Some foolish kids underanalyzing things so that they can seem "funny".

Geez, when will these kids give it up?

I thought that comic was kinda funny myself. but I disagree with people feelings on this. I think bab otter and his second evo look the coolest, but his last evo is terrible. Grass snakes last evo is best.
