Generation V English Names: November 22nd

I really like them

I'm just wondering why they decided to rename the ENTIRE REGION. That's never been done before >.> They even kept Kanto, despite the fact that it's japanese (though granted the player base at the time were probably young and didn't even know Kanto was a real region in Japan)

Snivy sounds good, it still has the sort of pompous ring to it. Tepig... is alright, though kinda disappointed that the fire reference is forced, at best. Where the heck did Oshawott come from o_O

Unova seems to be a pun of United States Ov(or of) America

Snivy sounds extremly stupid.

Tepig is weird and Os....something.

Unova? Why...? I mean, it doesn't sound bad, actually it sounds preety cool, but still... why?

*facepalm* Not at you, but if that ends up being the truth.

Don't care much about Smugleaf and Piggy, but Oshawott....really?

Better write down JP names of other favorites just incase.

i used google?

"Isshu region: Unova Region (Latin words "Unum" + "Nova," which mean "One New")"

Ok, that sounds much better.

Need help with the name explanation.

Snivy = Snake + Ivy
Tepig = ?? + Pig
Oshawott = ?? + Otter

When I read Tepig, I read it like "teh pig". Oshawott is "oh shit, wut?"

Tepig = ?? + Pig

Tepid+Pig
Tepid as in the temperature.

Aight, thanks for that.

By the way, German: Serpifeu, Floink, Ottaro; French: Vipélierre, Gruikui, Moustillon.

Oshawott --> Osha = Ocean

Well, these names suck.

Snivy? Really? That sounds like the kind of name a five year old gives to a beanie baby. You know, those stupid names that kind of sound like they'd be for the specific animal, but you can tell a five year old made it up? "Oh this snake is so cute, i'll call him SNIVY ^_^"

so dumb

Words cannot describe

I'm kinda confused, did you mean Isshu was the better name? Cause Unova's the english name for Isshu, not for Wargle.
