Wh-?
Where'd you get that from?
He's making fun of the complex names.
also apparently that list is real.

That site posted the full list first, but then took it down. Reliable sites like IGN or Bulbapedia confirmed about 10 of the list, so the rest are likely to be real. They only put back up the official names, but the full list has been spread around.

I dunno, Foongus and Amoongus are pure genius.
Why does Kirikizan have a name that makes reference to a chess piece, when he is clearly a Power Ranger?

I wouldn't get my hopes up about the names being fake. The starter evos weren't.
Shelmet was the only good one. Way to fuck up, localization team.
Krokorok is okay too once you can read through it and Tymple is adorable and the name is kinda cute. THATS FUCKIGN IT though.
I dunno, I like a lot of these. But if I don't really love it, then I pretty much hate it.

Deino, Zweilous, Hydreigon is also clever.
You'll get used to these eventually; just like we get used to all the other names.
I hope "Foongus" and "Amoonguss" are real.
Also people, this is why nicknames exist |D
Its still gonna yell those names over and over on the anime though
really how are they going to let something say "vulgina" on a kids show over and over

ha, that site.
They'll pretty much do anything for attention (such as
this). If that's the source of the english names, then we can pretty much say that they're fake.
...If they're not (as the starter evos were not), then, well... whatever, we'll get used to 'em and make jokes about them and gradually forget the japanese names and fan nicknames and move on.
I like "Roggenrola" its just as silly as "Geodude"

This is why I stopped watching the anime after the 3rd movie.
But then again I own the first 10 VHS of season one so if I feel like having a nostolgia fit I will.
Also in the anime, shouldn't pikachu be level 100 and destroy all the other pokemon anyway? Oh wait that would ruin the show but maybe a new main character is in order anyway |D
Pikachu loses to a Lv5 Tstutaja in the first Ep of the Black/White anime.
Makes sense to me, Pikachu is old and decrepit by now. Excellent way to write in a new plot, I think.
