::::I know this is kind of an old discussion, but I just would like to point out that this was actually a real mistake that was in the Japanese version! [https://dl.dropbox.com/u/3784170/IMAG0822.jpg] I'm assuming that the sprite was ripped from the Japanese version when it originally came out, and then the English localization team noticed this mistake and fixed it. So it's not the fault of someone ripping something badly, this was actually a mistake in the original version. Should this be placed in Trivia once more?

I'd like to propose that Milotic comes from "[http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/lotic?s=t lotic]", which means "pertaining to or living in flowing water".

more specifically that lotic refers to river ecosystems, as said in the second paragraph [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/River_ecosystem here]. I think it is very likely, due to the fact that the venus de MILO is an example of beauty, and as such, milotic's name can be translated as beautiful river.

:I'd say to go ahead and add it. Just be careful in your wording or one of us will have to correct it. —<font face="Segoe UI"><span style="text-shadow:grey 0.1em 0.1em 0.1em">[[User:IWannaBeTheVeryBest|<font color="#fff">The</font>]]Very[[User talk:IWannaBeTheVeryBest|<font color="red">Best</font>]]</span></font> 17:21, 14 May 2014 (UTC) | |||
