Pokemon.com revealing English names for Pokemon Black/White starters on Monday
Looks like we’re going to start the English naming process on Monday! This is going to be a long road to release, but it should be fun to see what these guys get as their English names!

If Smugleaf isn't named Smugleaf I'm gonna choke a bitch
i'll be there to watch you maiq
There is nothing in "Tsutaja" denoting Smug nor Leaf. The best we'll get out of that is Rattlestar.
On that note, here's my takes on them based on rough translations I've done:
Rattlestar -> Noboa -> Strictord
Porkpig -> Chowhog -> Emboar
Midgeshell -> Duotter -> Sharpwhal
Tsutaa = Star, Ja = Snake -> Ja = Snake, Nobii = Noble -> Ja = Snake, Rooda = Lord
Poka = Pork, Bu = Pig -> Chao = Char or Chow, Bu = Pig -> Enb = Emb, Buoo = Boar
Miju = Midge, Maru = Shell -> Futa = Dual, Chi = Pool (most likely), Maru = Shell -> Dai = Large, Ken = Dog, Ki = Fish.
Mijumaru line is pretty *crag*ed for English names lol
Looking forward to MEERHOG though (Miruhoggo)
I like how Emboar sounds like ember
and duotter sounds like water
So that doesn't help.
So.
I still support Smugleaf, Pignite, and Wotter for starter names.
Now if Nintendo would realize it's been Monday around the globe for a while now, I could see how disappointing the names may be.
nintendo rarely listens to the fanbase maiq.
they're probably going to think of more puntastic names.
