Lance's English name

[TTEchidna]

Let the speculation begin!

And no, I don't mean the Champion, with the Japanese name Wataru, I mean the Rocket guy in Slowpoke Well.

I'm thinking they'll use "Orion", considering the new spacelaunch system that'll succeed the Shuttle.

 

[$aturn¥oshi]

What are the other Rocket names? Perhaps there's a theme...

 

[Takoto]

I have literally no idea, sorry guys.

Personally, I like Sparta (lol)

They're all named after rockets/spacecrafts.

I only remember Apollo and Athena.

EDIT: The other was Lambda I think.

I want to go with Sputnik.

 

[TommyKoopa]

He could be called Falcon or Phoenix.

 

[Blazaking]

Hmmm.. Akash seems like a good one.
Or maybe Pluton...
Or Arcas...
Or Briz...

 

[Cybersai]

His name should be Chowder.

 

[Absur'd]

Rance.

 

[Flare Blitz]

Hades?

Javelin? Delta? Vanguard? Ares? Atlas? SATAN?

No seriously, Satan is a missle.

 

[paperfairy]

How surprised would we be if he was still Lance? X)

 

[Orbzap]

Maybe Game Freak got lazy and named him Bob.

I never noticed a pokemon character name Bob...>>

 

[Misty]

I want to go with Sputnik.

NO REDS HERE.

 

[Falconwing]

I want to go with Sputnik.

fitting, considering sputnik was the first satellite and this guys the first exec.

 

[hyliansage]

A greek letter! To go with Lambda.

Considering Apollo and Athena. XD

 

[Falconwing]

A greek letter! To go with Lambda.

Considering Apollo and Athena. XD

Delta then.

 

[AndyPKMN]

Ares, perhaps?

And no to Sputnik. The others are all actual rockets, not just satellites and spacecraft.

 

[Falconwing]

Also, apparently Lance takes the place of the original Team Rocket Fortress. So some name like Athens or Sparta, if such rockets existed.

 

[Misty]

... if he were named Sparta there would be no end to the 300 jokes.

 

[Mr. Pokemon]

I want to go with Sputnik.

Woody: Hey, w-wait, What happened? What happens next? Come on, let's see the next episode!
Stinky Pete the Prospector: That's it.
Woody: What?
Stinky Pete the Prospector: The show was cancelled after that.
Woody: Wait, wait, wait. What about the gold mine and... and the cute little critters and the dynamite? That was a great show! I mean, why cancel it?
Stinky Pete the Prospector: Two words: Sput-nik. Once the astronauts went up, children only wanted to play with space toys.
Woody: I know how that feels.
