Not just for pokémon, but for everything else too!

I think Akagi will be Adam. It starts with the same letter and it suits his goals to restart the universe.
 
Hikari = Katherine/Hannah/Carrie?

And for the record:
Naetoru = Naturtle. And I'm sticking to it!

Done. (excluded Ledgendaries)
 
If Mitsuhoney becomes Threebee, I'm coming after you with an axe, Habu.
And Chloreon sounds like the Eevee of all-things pool-related.

Terratoise would be fucking awesome. Some of those names are horribly lame Habunake but you make up for it with Terratoise.

That SO better be the actual English name.
 
For the starters...

Toryew (Grass starter)
Tamareat (Fire starter)
Aquin (Water starter)
 
I sincerely hope those were jokes, Habunake.
HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAH!
That still rocks.
This is a kid's game, you knave!
Pop star breast?
Toadquando
Now I KNOW you're kidding.
I seriously can't think of any right now, besides that the name MUST be Elecable.
Also, I predict there will be names that nobody guesses.
 
Parrotune
Excuse me? I believe they already covered that one.

Grey Starling birds:
Mukkuru = Greyling
Mukkubird = Greybird
Mukkuhawk = Greyhawk

Buuburn = Magburn

...All right. I'll give you that one.

...Do I really need to say anything?

Rioru = Riolu. Simple as that.

Jibacoil = Magnedroid

Dusknight
GOD, I hope so.

Agreed. Althought they might be Greybyrd and Grayhauk or something to make them more distinctive. Oh, and the following Pokemon will problably keep their Japanese names (besides the Legendaries): Beadull, Roserade, Rampard, Bouysel, Flowsel, Skunpoo and Skutank, Riolu, Scorpi, Dosydon (well, slightly changed into Dorhydon), Togekiss, Megayanma, Glion, and PorygonZ.
 
When Buoysel was revealed, I thought, and still think it'll either be kept Buoysel or changed to Seasel (Sea Weasel). Then we have Floatsel, who might get the name if they're changed.

Too close to Sneasel.

PorygonEX
That would get very confusing very easily.

I mean, yeah, their getting rid of the EX thing and replacing it with Lv. X, but it has potential to be "whaaaat?" material.

('m talkin about the TCG, btw.)
 
I believe in the cliche that Hikari's English name will start with 'M'.

Glacia will be Glaceon, I'm sure of it. I could think of other possible names: Frosteon, Brumeon, Frigeon, but they all sound retarded.

Leafia... I'm holding out for Parsleon. >D

I could see Bunyatto as Bulkat.

Sumomie will probably be something lame like Roselet, or Roseling.

Err... yeah. Boy, it's sure a good thing I'm not in charge of this stuff.
 
PorygonZ will be PorygonZ, I don't see any reason to change that. Or Buoysel, since it's, y'know, already an English Pokemon name as it is.

Jibacoil will also be Magnetank and if it isn't, i'll be really sad. :(
 
Jibacoil should be called "Eric Lensherr". :p
