| I'm sure that their surname will be Something-feller. Probably something battle-related, so I came up with Duefeller. The names are alikes, but they'll most likely end up being something completely random (Drake shouldn't be kept because of Elite Four Drake). | | I'm sure that their surname will be Something-feller.

| First of all, I don't believe in her recurring-ness (and even if she reappears, she's not gonna be a major character, IMHO). But I've got a reason to predict her name. So many people believe that her Japanese name will be kept in English dub. I, however, don't think so. Cabernet is a type of wine, an alcohol! The fact that they've changed Sommelier to [[Pokémon Connoisseur|Connoisseur]] pretty much means that they're getting rid of alcoholic references. So, I really doubt it that PUSA would want a character named after a type of alcohol.<br>Clarabeth is just my lame attempt at something similar-sounding. | |||

<!--Raimon City's English name is Nimbasa City (knew it long before the reveal, but originally thought that it was spelled with two "s"). That's why I've never its name. And this is how I worked out the cloud pattern - Castelia = Castellanus, Nimbassa = Nimbus. The pattern prove right.--> | <!--Raimon City's English name is Nimbasa City (knew it long before the reveal, but originally thought that it was spelled with two "s"). That's why I've never its name.
