On this wiki, most Pokémon pages have the trademarked Romanization, rather than the Rōmaji. So, Japanese "Caterpie" is actually supposed to be "Kyatapī". Can someone please change this? Or sometwo? Or somemore? I'll work on it also. Sincerely, [[User:Jayt55|Jét55]]

:Er, you're confused in both intent and wording. Yes, we use the trademarked Romanization, ''not'' the Rōmaji. "{{p|Meowth|NYARTH}}" is what shows up on Japanese merchandise, not "Nyāsu," so we use Nyarth.—[[User:Urutapu|Loveはドコ?]] ([[User talk:Urutapu|talk]] <small>•</small> [[Special:Contributions/Urutapu|contribs]]) 01:40, 4 May 2009 (UTC)

Rōmaji

On this wiki, most Pokémon pages have the trademarked Romanization, rather than the Rōmaji. So, Japanese "Caterpie" is actually supposed to be "Kyatapī". Can someone please change this? Or sometwo? Or somemore? I'll work on it also. Sincerely, Jét55

Er, you're confused in both intent and wording. Yes, we use the trademarked Romanization, not the Rōmaji. "NYARTH" is what shows up on Japanese merchandise, not "Nyāsu," so we use Nyarth.—Loveはドコ? (talk contribs) 01:40, 4 May 2009 (UTC)
