Comment on Why do Pokémon have different names in ENG?

It’s far from uncommon for names to be localised, especially for children’s media. Speaking names, pokemon names being prime examples, don’t work if you don’t speak the language they originate in. So if you want to achieve the effect in the translation, you have to find an appropriate word in the target language to convey the meaning.
