News on the last season of DP was revealed in the Chinese [http://www.my-cartoon.com.tw/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=1822&Itemid=122 official website], along with the Chinese name for Takuto.
  尚志、考平、真司以及新的對手'''達克多''' (Nando, Conway, Paul and also new rival Takuto)
For [[Volkner]], the manga ([[DPA]]) uses 電磁. I'm not sure if the anime will use the same name. They had a different name for [[Sunyshore City]]. For the rest, I'll add them as soon as the episode airs in Taiwan. [[User:神奇超龍|神奇超龍]] 06:31, 27 October 2010 (UTC)

*1. Kanji originated mostly via Chinese "fantizi" characters.

*3. Learn Chinese.
*4. GATHERED HEADS, much.

:*1. Kanji sounds almost like Chinese.
*2. Say: Shuugou (no macro), Chuuho, Cheihe, Jihe. Proof enough? (Etyomology is confusing but... "r's" and "l's" are an example.)
*3. It's the "Q" that is the "ch" sound, not "J". "J" is still... "J".
*4. You don't get the point. The heads have gathered to make a Pokemon (no accented e, either).
*5. Have a joke.

:* 1. It no longer does. Most Chinese loanwords in Japanese now sound nothing like Chinese. The languages evolve. Japanese has evolved greatly since Middle Ages and so did Chinese. While it's true that on-yomi reading of Kanji evolved from Chinese, they really drifted apart from each other by those years. Also, modern Chinese no longer sounds like Middle Chinese (especially Mandarin, which is one of the most peculiarly evolved dialects. Cantonese or Min-Nan are way more conservative). - '''YOU WIN'''

I see what you mean about that. I assumed the dubbers would keep the original meaning by making a fleeting reference to its Japanese name.

You undid my trivia on [[Lt. Surge]], while I see your point that many trainers have unobtainable Pokémon, Surge is a [[Gym Leader]].

== Indonesian Manga ==
umm, i don't know yet how to make tables... anyway, the only Pokémon manga published in Indonesia is the one directed by Anakubo Kosaku. Here are the names I know so far:
Ash = Ali,
Gary = Geri,
Blue = Blue,
Pikachu = Pikachu,
Clefairy = Kleferi,
Tyrogue = Balki
places' names are the same as the English series..but the manga itself is translated badly; most of the translations are incomprehensible. well,what else would 'ya like to know? [[User:Milkgila|Milkgila]] 16:09, 25 December 2010 (UTC)

Not sure about Hong Kong, but I did see the logo for Best Wishes in Cantonese somewhere on the Internet. The title is the same as the Taiwanese (超級願望, literally ''Super Wish''), since they are dubbed by the same company. Hong Kong is still somewhere around DP030. The site doesn't mention when the airdate is. But from what I heard, BW should air sometime in January of 2011 at 中華電信 MOD (Chunghwa Telecom Multimedia on Demand), which I unfortunately don't have. <font color="#2B547E" face="DFKaiSB">'''神智の[[User:神奇超龍|超龍]]'''</font>「[[User talk:神奇超龍|對話]]」 13:09, 27 December 2010 (UTC)

== Official website ==
[http://www.longman.net.cn/default.asp Here]. Actually, this is the website of the manga distributor in mainland China. I got the name 亚希达 from the announcement in [http://www.longman.net.cn/qikanview.asp?id=407 here]. (It also mentions the name change of Pokémon from 神奇宝贝 to 精灵宝可梦 ''Jīnglíng Bǎokěmèng''.) <font color="#2B547E" face="DFKaiSB">'''神智の[[User:神奇超龍|超龍]]'''</font>「[[User talk:神奇超龍|對話]]」 15:33, 4 January 2011 (UTC)
:The fans didn't like the change either. Let's just say some thinks of it as the love child of (寵物)小精靈, 神奇宝贝 and <strike>机器猫</strike> {{tt|哆啦A梦|Doraemon}}. Also, volume 30 will be released sometime around February (Taiwan isn't even finished with the DP chapter yet). And, no, I do not have any access to it. I just hope they would be consistent with the Taiwanese names. <font color="#2B547E" face="DFKaiSB">'''神智の[[User:神奇超龍|超龍]]'''</font>「[[User talk:神奇超龍|對話]]」 16:04, 4 January 2011 (UTC)
::Can't really tell. The words beside the logo are too blurry. It could be fake. Mainland fans seems to prefer calling Pokémon 宠物小精灵 (besides 口袋妖怪) for some reason. Also, the Cantonese version looked like [http://www.cp1897.com.hk/bookinfo/image/450/9628822934z.jpg this] and [http://www.cp1897.com.hk/bookinfo/image/450/9628906135z.jpg this] (Volume 10 & 12, couldn't find volume 1). Lastly, I did find this seemingly official [http://pic100.tuku.cc/cimg/sqbbtbp.jpg cover] for [[Pokémon_Adventures_volume_30|Vol 30]], although  [http://www.ching-win.com.tw/showimg.php?b_unit=4646 this] is the actual cover. <font color="#2B547E" face="DFKaiSB">'''神智の[[User:神奇超龍|超龍]]'''</font>「[[User talk:神奇超龍|對話]]」 17:29, 4 January 2011 (UTC)

::About the cover you showed me, it's from mainland China. The logo matches the one [http://www.chlip.com.cn/ here]. I also did some research and found that Pokémon was officially known as 宠物小精灵 in mainland. The official name change to 神奇宝贝 was when CCTV re-dubbed the anime and JiLin re-published the manga around 2000 (I was not a fan during that time). On an unrelated note, do you happen to know [[Charon]]'s Korean name? <font color="#2B547E" face="DFKaiSB">'''神智の[[User:神奇超龍|超龍]]'''</font>「[[User talk:神奇超龍|對話]]」 12:16, 18 January 2011 (UTC)
== BW anime ==
Taiwan has just aired 4 BW episodes in MOD (It's a pay per view service, so a lot of people didn't get to see the premiere). I already added the names of most of the Pokémon that debuted in those episode (except for [[Alomomola]] and [[Swanna]], not sure if it was mentioned). Panpour's name (冷水猴 ''Lěngshuǐhóu'') was from the BW005 trailer. For Pansear, the subtitles reads 炎爆猴 ''Yánbàohóu'', but the narrator read it as "{{tt|爆香猴|I think...}}" ''Bàoxiānghóu'', so we'll just wait for more confirmation on it.
P.S. Already added Kanoko Town (鹿子鎮, it was obvious).  I didn't really forget to add it (Just wanted to make sure). --<font color="#990000" face="DFKaiSB">'''神智の</font>[[User:神奇超龍|<font color="#2B547E" face="DFKaiSB">超龍</font>]]'''「[[User talk:神奇超龍|對話]]」 17:57, 28 January 2011 (UTC)

:The BW-styled logo? I've seen it too. Two episodes had already aired in CCTV6 last July 3. There's a cast list [http://www.dm1999.com/News_View.asp?NewsID=52 here] (seems like Dynamic Media would be the one dubbing it again). Swampert was able to provide some interesting tidbits about the redub [[User talk:CoolPikachu!/Pokémon in China#Diamond & Pearl debut in Mainland China|here]], such as how transliterated names are pronounced (eg. 宝可梦 as ''Pokémon'', instead of ''Bǎokěmèng''). No word yet on the sudden change of name, but I'm starting to feel that its due to the desire of the Japanese officials to have all international names sound similar to Pokémon. (Taiwan and Hong Kong would probably be next). --<font color="#2B547E">'''神</font><font color="#F8D030">電</font><font color="#990000">の</font>[[User:神奇超龍|<font color="#0B0BA6">超龍</font>]]「'''[[User talk:神奇超龍|對話]]'''」''' 18:06, 5 July 2011 (UTC)
::I just watched the dub. Aside from the character's voice, the pronunciation was a bit off. The pronunciation of every transliterated name sounded really awkward. The dub was re-translated from Japanese, but the names are kept (except the ones Swampert mentioned and {{tt|精灵球|Pokéball}}). Also, the [http://www.dynamicmedia.com.cn/index.htm dubbing company] referred to Dialga and Palkia as '''迪亚鲁卡''' and '''帕鲁奇亚''' (Hope this is a mistake). For some updates in Taiwan, there will be four more episodes to be released on 7/29, which means more Chinese names will be revealed due to the [[Can You Name All the Pokémon? BW|new ending]]. Also, when BW would be broadcasted in YoYoTV, [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pq7ZOgYB6Ko this] would be the new opening. It was mentioned in their [http://www.facebook.com/mycartoon101?sk=wall Facebook page]. --<font color="#2B547E">'''神</font><font color="#F8D030">電</font><font color="#990000">の</font>[[User:神奇超龍|<font color="#0B0BA6">超龍</font>]]「'''[[User talk:神奇超龍|對話]]'''」''' 18:45, 7 July 2011 (UTC)

== Pokémon Communication Center ==
Sorry for only discussing this now. Anyway, you reverted my edit that hid the reference to the PokéCom Center theme from the Ruby and Sapphire beta article, claiming that the PokéCom Center in Crystal plays a different theme. Well, it might play it but if it does, it's not under regular gameplay. And [http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8033581/Crystal_Japanese_PCC.mp4 I have a video] to prove it (it's not hosted on YouTube and please notify me after you watched so I can remove it from my Dropbox, if you don't mind). In comparison, I'll leave two MP3s of a soundrip from Crystal I have:<br>
— [http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8033581/16%20Pok%C3%A9mon%20Center.mp3 Pokémon Center theme];<br>
— [http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8033581/101%20Pok%C3%A9mon%20Communication%20Center.mp3 The PokéCom Center theme?]<br>
Please evaluate this. I'm curious as to if connecting the game to the Mobile Adapter would trigger this theme on the PokéCom Center but, unfortunately, I cannot verify that.

:Thanks for the reply, Maxim. I'll try rewording that on the Ruby and Sapphire beta article as to clarify that it requires the Mobile Adapter (until we can confirm when does that theme actually play, it seems the best to do for now).

:::In what way did I belittle the staff? What I did is say that we have an unwritten policy of denying often obvious things (I unofficially call it "Bulbadenial", but no matter what you call it, it just exists), which I don't quite agree with (but follow it nonetheless). Also, as a long-time member (way older than most of the current staff) I'd expect some respect from others as well. For example, I find deleting my (polite) comments rather offensive. --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] ([[User talk:Maxim|talk]]) 22:21, 12 June 2012

== Team trainer classes vs. names ==
Hey there! I saw your dispute awhile back with FinnishPokeFan95 about [[Gladion]] and the Team Skull Grunts' Trainer classes, and I think you're the one in the right, so I've been hounding them about it on their talk page and they appear to be refusing to respond to me. Since they won't discuss the matter, I would like to {{wp|wp:BeBold|Be Bold}} and correct not only that page but also all the other ones that this misconception may apply to. FinnishPokeFan95 mentioned Plasma and Flare, but since you seem to know more about the back end of things than I do, I was wondering if you know more about it or know of some resource on the Web that I can comb through myself that shows the difference between Trainer class and name for any/all of the games? Thanks! [[User:Pumpkinking0192|Pumpkinking0192]] ([[User talk:Pumpkinking0192|talk]]) 17:21, 21 February 2017 (UTC)
:I don't log in as often as I used to. I'm too old for arguing about such stuff, I guess. I guess FinnishPokeFan was referring to the fact that the articles about "Team Flare" and "Team Plasma" Trainer classes refer only to non-Grunt/Admin characters that use such class because Bulbapedia has that convention of considering Grunts/Admins as separate Trainer class (even if it's not the case in the games, it's still "Team X" class + the name "Grunt") and while I'm not questioning that convention or asking to change it, I think that we shouldn't state things like "This class refers only to Gladion" because it's simply incorrect in the context of the games. With other classes (such like Flare or Plasma) there is no such problem because they refer to multiple individuals. So, we are facing a situation where Bulbapedia conventions create clash with the in-game reality. And I believe that the latter should be more important - we're a Wiki about Pokemon, not a Wiki about itself. What I propose is adding the words "except for the grunts", which do not break Bulbapedia conventions, yet remain in accordance with the in-game reality. They're a good compromise (in my opinion) but that guy doesn't want to accept it. --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] ([[User talk:Maxim|talk]]) 15:26, 7 March 2017 (UTC)

This is random and I just happned to see your name on a talkpage, but your userpage still says that you are retired even though you appear to have continued here for about five more years. So, perhaps you might want to update your userpage?

== Blue/Green ==
So basically in the first italian translation of early 2000's, they chose to leave the japanese names for these 2 characters (Green was the boy, Blue was the girl). Few years ago a company named J-Pop started to translate the Adventures saga from the beginning and, this time, they kept Blue (''Blu'') for the boy and Green (''Verde'') for the girl.[[User:Orion919303|Orion919303]] ([[User talk:Orion919303|talk]]) 18:43, 23 September 2018 (UTC)

::I will deal with these kind of info personally here on Bulba, I've already started doing it.

:::Okay, I'll try not to get in your way with edits, although I'll be adding names from different languages as well (the problem is, I can only base on the language's respective Wikis, as I don't have any access to those translations personally). I assume that Pokemon Central Wiki is accurate when it comes to Italian names? --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] ([[User talk:Maxim|talk]]) 19:50, 23 September 2018 (UTC)
:We are accurate when it comes to official names and we are currently working on the new translations. Concerning the names which has not been translated yet, we will keep the english ones until the Italian release. You can also find out that some of the nicknames have not been translated (ex: Gyara is ''Gyarados di Rosso'', a.k.a. "Red's Gyarados"): should I add ''Gyarados di Rosso'' in the Names section or should I leave that without it? I will also add round's names here on Bulba (they are the "VS <Pokémon>" ones, except for the tenth chapter), trying to follow your standards.[[User:Orion919303|Orion919303]] ([[User talk:Orion919303|talk]]) 23:04, 23 September 2018 (UTC)

== Removing Chuang Yi names ==
Why are you removing the Chuang Yi names of Pokémon Adventures characters from the Adventures round pages? There could always be people who are more familiar with those names than the Viz ones. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 12:24, 1 November 2018 (UTC)
:I got a permission from [[User_talk:Ataro#Chuang_Yi_names|Bulbapedia's manga head]]. Yeah, I know some people may still remember CY names better - but that's what links are for. If someone is confused, they can click on the link and see which character/Pokemon is which. I'm not removing these names from the entirety of Bulbapedia - they're still on the character's respective pages and langtables, where they belong. But as those names are long obsolete (current Singaporean translation by SA sticks to Viz's naming), I don't see a reason to list them on every occasion. That just makes things look more cluttered and disorganized. Face it, at this point of history, CY names are trivia material at best. --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] ([[User talk:Maxim|talk]]) 12:38, 1 November 2018 (UTC)

:You clearly have a problem understanding what the "Errors" section in episode articles is about.

== Your CC questions ==
Sorry I never got back to you on this until now, but since we last spoke, I was able to get access to the [[Google Play]] closed captions for [[S01]] (with the help of {{u|Abcboy}}), which are identical in format to the Prime Video CCs for later seasons. Here are the answers to your questions for [[EP042]] and [[EP043]]:
* Yes, the three boys in EP042 have English names! However, the order is different from what you provided ("BILLY/BOBBY/BARRY" instead of Billy, Barry and Bobby) and unfortunately, it isn't made clear which is which, since their names only appear in lines that all three speak at one.
* No, Melvin's assistant in EP043 is simply referred to as "woman #1".
I skimmed through the CCs for most of the other episodes in that season, and it seems like most characters without a proper name (if they're identified at all) are simply referred to as "man" or "woman" plus a number. Just out of curiosity (and you don't have to share if you don't want to), are any of the unnamed "bit" characters in season one given more descriptive titles in your source?
