No, like how Daikatana just means big sword in Japan but it sounds cool here.timeadept said:then apparently the Japanese word for gear is... gear? how does that work out?
Machamp wore pants, Jynx wore clothes (well ish)Irony said:Am I the only one that noticed that there is a line of Pokemon evolution where the Pokemon goes from wielding a 2X4 to a steel bar to two blocks of concrete? And that there are two Pokemon wearing clothes?
This changes things....how? It's still a pokemon that looks like a gear, and it's named "Gear". It being the Japanese name doesn't make it any less un-imaginative.arc1991 said:They are not the English names! they are the Japanese names!Grey_Focks said:...Gear? Really? REALLY? I'm sorry pokemon, but you guys need to admit you've run out of ideas. the first two gen of games were great, and they had awesome design. Third had a few decent, fourth was pretty "blech" imo, and this....meh. I really haven't played a pokemon game since third gen (that was ruby and sapphire, right?) and I'm kinda glad I left when I did.
Just took another look at them, slightly more "in-depth"...and there's an ice-cream pokemon. Fuck it, why not.
That's its, time to edit my OP
Back in the day, I could recite the first 151 pokemon in order from Bulbasaur to Mew.Simalacrum said:Oh dear, I remember when I used to know all 181 Pokemon, both in Japanese AND English...

Japanese don't use the word "Gear" so it's new for them ,they wont care.Grey_Focks said:This changes things....how? It's still a pokemon that looks like a gear, and it's named "Gear".

No they are using the English name of what they would call a gear, not hard to work out.timeadept said:then apparently the Japanese word for gear is... gear? how does that work out?arc1991 said:They are not the English names! they are the Japanese names!Grey_Focks said:...Gear?
