View source for User:Kenji-girl/English name predictions

These are my guesses to what the new names of future Pokémon characters when they get their English names.

Note to other users: You may edit this page '''ONLY''' to change the images. '''DO NOT''' add dub names. I will get to it myself.

===The Unova Special===
I know I said I wouldn't do games anymore. But I really want to do Black and White. I'm not doing every character though.

|- align=center
| [[Image:Black White Juniper.png|100px]]<br>'''Professor Araragi''' 
| {{2v2|Black|White}}
| '''Professor Aspen''' 
| From the Aspen tree. I know her name is from Yew, but I don't think America will use that.
| '''[[Professor Juniper]]'''
| Not even close. I shouldn't be surprised though
|- align=center
| [[Image:VSCilan.png]]<br>'''Dent''' 
| {{2v2|Black|White}}
| '''Clover'''
| Yes, I know, it' a girl's name. Of course, [[Tabitha|he wouldn't be the first]]. I just think this because it's a plant that has three leaves. I don't really like this prediction and it will probably be wrong, but I wanted to try D:
| '''[[Cilan]]'''
| Yuck... cilantro. The name is great, I just find cilantro disgusting. Better than what I said.
|- align=center
| [[Image:VSChili.png]]<br>'''Pod''' 
| {{2v2|Black|White}}
| Still thinking about it
| It'll be hard to guess his name. I don't know what they will pun. The Tri thing or the types.
| '''[[Chili]]'''
| Oh God, why...? I get the theme you were going for but, ugh... {{wp|Cayenne pepper|Cayenne}} would have been 100 times better!
|- align=center
| [[Image:VSCress.png]]<br>'''Corn''' 
| {{2v2|Black|White}}
| Still thinking about it
| It'll be hard to guess his name. I don't know what they will pun. The Tri thing or the types.
| '''[[Cress]]'''
| Like Cilan, nice choice.
|- align=center
| [[Image:VSLenora.png]]<br>'''Aloe''' 
| {{2v2|Black|White}}
| '''Regina'''
| From ''regular'', referring to {{type|Normal}}s
| '''[[Lenora]]'''
| No comment
|- align=center
| [[Image:VSBurgh.png]]<br>'''Arti''' 
| {{2v2|Black|White}}
| '''Antone'''
| From ''ant'', referring to {{type|Bug}}s. I'm aware that he doesn't use {{P|Aianto|ants}}.

|- align=center
| [[Image:VSElesa.png]]<br>'''Kamitsure''' 
| {{2v2|Black|White}}

| Hmm... {{wp|Clay Aiken|Clay Yacon}} :D
|- align=center
| [[Image:VSSkyla.png]]<br>'''Fuuro''' 
| {{2v2|Black|White}}
| '''Heather'''
| From ''feather'' and ''heaven'', referring to {{type|Flying}}s and her Gym Leader title. I swear, if it's not this, I'll be pissed.
| '''[[Skyla]]'''
| What a stupid and unoriginal name. Oh let's put "sky" but add a feminine "la" on the end. 
|- align=center
| [[Image:VSBrycen.png]]<br>'''Hachiku''' 
| {{2v2|Black|White}}
| '''Fritz'''
| From ''freeze'', referring to {{type|Ice}}s
| '''[[Brycen]]'''
| Honestly MUST we pun the word "ice" with all the Ice Gym Leaders? There are other words that relate to ice besides ice itself. And it sounds too similar to [[Pryce]].
|- align=center
| [[Image:VSDrayden.png]]<br>'''Shaga''' 
| {{2v2|Black|White}}
| '''Bastian'''
| From ''{{wp|basilisk}}'', referring to {{type|Dragon}}s. Interestingly, basilisk starts with B, like black.
| '''[[Drayden]]'''
| The name doesn't make that much sense to me. 
|- align=center
| [[Image:VSIris.png]]<br>'''Iris''' 
| {{2v2|Black|White}}
| '''Lavern'''
| From ''{{wp|wyvern}}'', referring to {{type|Dragon}}s. Interestingly, wyvern starts with W, like white.
| '''[[Iris]]'''
| Oh my. No change? Really? What does Iris have to do with dragons?
|- align=center
| [[Image:VSShauntal.png]]<br>'''Shikimi''' 
| {{2v2|Black|White}}
| '''Beatrice'''
| From ''{{wp|banshee}}.
| '''[[Shauntal]]'''
| Fine
|- align=center
| [[Image:VSGrimsley.png]]<br>'''Giima''' 
| {{2v2|Black|White}}
| '''Edward'''
| From {{wp|Edward Cullen}}, the vampire and main character of ''Twilight''. Hey, it's at the height of its popularity. [[Sabrina]] anyone? Also kinda sounds like ''dark''.
| '''[[Grimsley]]'''
| Sounds like a butler's name...
|- align=center
| [[Image:VSMarshal.png]]<br>'''Renbu''' 
| {{2v2|Black|White}}
| '''Ruben'''
| From ''rumble''. Also an anagram of Renbu.
| '''[[Marshal]]'''
| Fine
|- align=center
| [[Image:Hawes anime.png|150px]]<br>'''Kidachi''' 
| {{2v2|Black|White}}
| '''Krantz'''
| From the {{wp|Aloe arborescens|Krantz aloe}}, like his Japanese name.
| '''[[Hawes]]'''
| Such a southern-sounding name. Guess it fits though

| [[Image:VSRoxie.png]]<br>'''Homika''' 
| {{2v2|Black 2|White 2}}
| '''Vanessa''', '''Veronica''', or '''Venus'''
| From ''venom''. I just hope they don't make up some name like "Poisonetta" or something... I don't want another Skyla. Veronica comes from mainly from the {{wp|Strychnos nux-vomica}}, the origin of her Japanese name. The Venus might not happen because of [[Venus|this one]]. But I was trying to stick to plants.
| '''[[Roxie]]'''
| Oh well.
|- align=center
| [[Image:VSMarlon.png]]<br>'''Shizui''' 
| {{2v2|Black 2|White 2}}

|- align=center
| [[File:VSBenga.png]]<br>'''Banjirō''' 
| {{2v2|Black 2|White 2}}
