Why wouldn't 'Throh' work? They're Karate and Judo pokemon, and would 'sock' and 'throw' their opponents.
Wow, those are all terrible, with the exception of the last - and that's just the japanese name anyway.
Actually speaking of which, the JP names have fairly traditionally been kind of bad, mostly just using loanwords. "Thunder" and "Thunders" being two different Pokémon. IN THE SAME GEN. Even now, Yorkshire Terrier Pokémon Lilipup was 'Yoterry' and Chandelure was just 'Shanderaa'.
The english names (with the exception of Ditto) has avoided this; which I'm greatful for.
