I guess you have a point there.

The best part is that even Wynaut made that joke in the anime.

I'd be incredibly surprised if they DIDN'T, considering the original name translates to roughly the same Japanese phrase.

Also yeah, most Pokemon names are some kind of pun. XP

Cause it's more fun than just giving names that don't have extra entertainment value. It's not a super serious series, so it works!

EDIT: Wow, simultaneous, matching posts!
