Best/Worst Pokemon Names

Palamon said:
I'm back to say that the worst legendary names are Xerneas and Yveltal, like the first time I saw these, my first thought was I felt bad for the kids who might play these because they definitely won't be able to pronounce them! Other than that, most Pokemon names, aside from the ones that are too literal aren't bad, and I find it difficult to pick a "best" Pokemon name because for me, that's too hard to say.

Also, this is a personal gripe of mine, but I hate that they used meme words on some of the gen 9 Pokemon. Like, really? Lechonk? Smoliv? God. No thank you!

I'm an adult, and I still just pronounce it "Yuh-vittal-vottle." ^_^;;
 
I always thought names like Purugly and Bewear sounded really corny.
 
i can't really say a best. i think most pokemon have good names.
not many pokemon have downright bad english names, i think (aside from the paradoxes and... god, seel). most of the really bad ones are japanese (crab, lizard, umbreon's unintentionally racist name, the uhhhhhhhh the magby line's names i don't think i can say here...)
