Honestly, I really didn't think they would have used the localized ones anyway and it isn't like we don't know the monster they are talking about using the romanized names.

...although I can see they already planned the intro for that one person to have a different monster later as I see a silly moment when they run/jump off the cliff. I mean, really... lol
