:I also have a question. Kim Dong is publishing a Pokédex book (people said it should be this year but I'm not quite sure). By the information I gathered so far, it'll contain official translations of Pokémon names, abilities and moves. As moves and abilities were added (well, not all but little by little), is it okay to add translation of Pokémon names in their own articles once the book is released?

::Sorry I just noticed your question. Yeah I don't see any reason any we can't add the Pokémon names to their individual articles. Although is there any particular reason why we have to wait for the book to be released and not use the names that already exist for them (such as those from Pokémon Adventures)?

:::Well because the names on the book are finalized ones on the namelist -- there should not be any changes about these... The names on Pokémon Adventures, although directly translated by Japanese company (The Pokémon Company), there are flawed from volume to volume and often have to fix those flaws in newer reprints. If you wonder, Zapdos was once called "Xander" and then fixed as "Thunder". So that's the reason why. We're now working on the finalized namelist, which hopefully will be added in Bulba wiki this month, but there might be changes and I just have to keep some secrets so haha...
