Pokémon in South Korea: Difference between revisions

[[File:Pokémon Sun Version logo KO.png|thumb|200px|right|Korean logo for Pokémon Sun]]Currently, the Korean franchise tends to mirror that of Japan, in the same way the European franchise mirrors that of North America. Some Korean Pokémon names and NPCs are translations or transliterations of their Japanese names; {{p|Sylveon}}'s Korean name 님피아 ''Nimpia'' is based on the Japanese ニンフィア ''Nymphia'' rather than its Western name. Furthermore, event Pokémon distributions in Korea tend to follow similar events in Japan rather than those in Europe and the States; the Japanese [[List of local Japanese event Pokémon distributions in Generation V#Year of the Dragon Eggs|Year of the Dragon]] event was also [[List of Wi-Fi Korean event Pokémon distributions in Generation V#Year of the Dragon Pokémon|available in Korea]], but was never released in the West. Finally, like the Japanese versions, the "포켓몬스터" logo used on every game changes with each generation, instead of using the same "International Pokémon" logo used in the West.
