How do you just feel about these names?! Not too bad huh? Share the on fb! Imma go to sleep zZzZzZzZz
<3 pokejungle
ps- One of the seven sage characters is named Ghetsis (Geechisu) 😮 Creepy name
These names could of been so much better…
1. The 3 waiters should NOT have been named after stupid stuff that no human would truly ever be named, this is not Japan make realistic English/American names please…good thing I’ll never pick that pig though no matter what so I don’t have to fight the weird guy with the blue hair named Cress.
2. Lenora…are kidding me she’s black so her name is lenora?? wtf…racist I hope this gets attention
3. Burgh…Arthur would of been a much better name for a Bug type gym leader esp. since theres only been 2 you could of atleast gave this guy a cooler name…this is the worst name..
4. Elesa…love it
5. Clay…Decent
6. Brycen….I’m just glad its not Bryce
7.Skyla…..this is a name a little kid would of made up for a flying type gym leader are you kidding me…? and you think that just adding an ‘a’ onto something it makes it a good girls name…no. Wendy, Gail, or even just Skye would of been better.
8. Iris and Drayden….Drayden sounds like a stereotypical black persons name and the guy happens to be an old man…really?? and I still don’t know how Iris relates to dragons.
I’m interested in knowing what the elite 4 names are now, although I bet they’ll be any better also considering they all look like they stepped out of a Dragon Ball-Z episode or a Lady Gaga video…
1. The three waiters’ names are fine. As for Cress… you haven’t played Tales of Phantasia, have you?
2. Lenora – it’s fine. You’re just overthinking stuff.
3. Burgh – it’s fine too, sounds hipster; in that sense, it fits Arti since he looks like your stereotypical artsy Tumblr user… but then again, your mileage may vary.
4. Elesa – eew. She needs a better name. Anything but “Elesa”, sounds stupid.
5. Clay – why not?
6. Brycen… they’re not trying anymore, are they.
7. Skyla – WHAT THE HELL IS THIS? I wholly agree with you on this one. (How about naming her Yoko?)
8. Drayden’s good, Iris’ name isn’t even changed from the original Japanese hence you’ve absolutely no right to complain here, haha.
* Cilan/Chili/Cress- Cilan from Cilantro- a cooking plant, Cress from Watercress- another cooking plant, and Chili from Chili pepper- a spicy fruit grown on a plant.
* Lenora (Aloe)- has nor in it for normal
* Burgh (Arti)- Bug is in the name
* Elesa (Kamitsure)- has Ele for electricity
* Clay (Yacon)- duh
* Skyla (Fuuro)- Sky
* Brycen (Hachiku)- you can hear Ice in the name
* Drayden (Shaga)- has Dra for Dragon
* Iris- Dragon Iris dragon flower
I hope this helps some people with the names.
Drayden sounds too young for Shaga
Ow…. i really spected to kamitsure beign called Electra =/
Oh, and… BURGH?! What is that,? and onomatopoeia for somone barfing?
I’m getting pissed at some sites for ignoring these kind of informations… even when some of them comes true, they still won’t post the rest, even though they’re true :b
Seriously, some sites are just being too safe sometimes…
There’s a difference between encyclopedia sites like Bulbapedia that must change around every single one of their files to match up with that name, and a site like this where (as it is a blog) very little has to be done to get the message across.
“It’s too safe sometimes.” Well, let’s see you try to edit 30-something files and pages one at a time to match up with the “new name.” Renditions will be done when all of the names are revealed officially when the games come out in less than 4 weeks.
It does not matter if a fansite chooses to delay their information because we all know that a month from now nobody will care either way. It will become part of the commercial mainstream and people will forget that disputes between English and Japanese names, and rumors to factual information, even exist.
I never thought in a million years that my name would turn out to be a pokemon gym leaders. I am so buying the Black Version.
