From the same place he got Chatot, Serebii says Tamanta is Mantyke.

I like it, sounds close to Mantine AND makes sense.
 
Weird. Part of me really likes it and part of me really hates it.

Definately one I can get used to, anyway.
 
Regarding Mantyke; I find it really goofy, like Chatot, but it's something I could probably get use to.
 
If that is the name, it's not bad. I rather like it, and could easily get used to it.

Yeah....figured you should get a good name before the influx of bad ones

*shudder*

Whats worse is...its growing on me ;-;
 
*sobs* Serebii, stop saying that! :(

But I like Mantyke. Is there someone telling you when you when you can release these names or are you just picking whenever you want to?

What a drama queen. lol
 
You say I'm a drama queen...but you'll see...I aint looking forward to the fallout from everyone. Nobody will like it :p
 
As long as Korobooshi and Masukippa are good...

Can you give us hints???
 
I am convinced they won't like it anyway because they're a bunch of otaku nuts. They're whining about Dialga and Palkia over there, what's up with that? Those people shouldn't be allowed to use English language anymore.

Anyway, waiting for confirmation and all that. I will give you 99.9% accuracy, though.
 
o.o I hope nintendo didn't do anything to Bouysel! That'd be one of the least likely names Id want/expect to see changed!

Mantyke is a really good name! I like it a lot, and it's cute. I still would prefer chatot to be something like "parlot" (parrot, parler, lot), chatot is still hard for me to say/ too much work to say.

In other news... *wonders about Rotom's english name* (I'm thinking its a possiblity to get a name change because of its plainness, like Thunder or Freezer) I'd like Pulsar or Diode... but I think I'd like whatever Pokemon USA came up with.
 
So...how many PUSA reps will I have to sleep with to get this info?
 
Goddamnit, Serebii, keep it to yourself until you're allowed to tell them all or something! All this teasing is just annoying and doesn't do any good to some people's blood pressure.
 
How many English names do you know Mr. Serebii man?

And could someone please explain to me how they derived Palkia and Dialga?
And does anyone think of FF when they hear Dialga? Or is it just me? >.<
 
Parukia, pronounced in English, would be Palkia same with Diaruga and Dialga. They are pretty much the exact same.
 
I dunno...I still assertain that Palkia doesnt make sense...it should derive from Pearl so Pea(r?)lkia would work but Palkia doesn't...at least thats what I feel
 
Palkia makes as much sense as Parukia does to me, imo.

Honestly, people on your boards act like this was a horrific name change (the Dialga/Palkia thing, lucklily Mantyke is generally being received good).

Although, Mantini? People wanted THAT to be it's name?
