"I actually feel ashamed to be part of a community that, when a name gets localised go 'why did they change it? this name is dumb i hate it' when romanised go 'uuuugh so lazy why did they not change it? i hate it its dumb grrrrrrr' but when a name is LITERALLY unchanged go 'yeah thats fine i like that'. I can imagine the tears of the localisation team now.."

I am far from being like that. I actually appreciate when they come up with creative and different ways to name the monsters, and sometimes those new names make more sense/are easier to pronounce.

Sometimes when they don't change it at all it's fine, in cases like Kecha Wacha for example, since it still sounds good and not too japanese-ish.

But in this case, it's like they did half the job for me. One name in the romanized version, and the other in the kana version. I don't like it like this.
