Japanese: ポケモンソムリエ対決!テイスティングバトル!! Pokémon Sommelier Showdown! Tasting Battle!!

Predicted English title: Evaluation Times Two!

Actual title: Piplup, Pansage and a Meeting of the Times!

Actual title: Battling Authority Once Again!

Characters & voice actors

Tobio

Predicted dub name: Tony (Kenji-girl likely has it right)

VA: Tom Wayland

Actual name: Toby

Actual VA: Eli James

Thoughts: Kenji-girl did have it right, just not in the way I expected.

Robert

Predicted dub name: Robert

VA: Billy Bob Thompson

Actual name: Robert

Actual VA: Tom Wayland

Thoughts: Name was obvious, but one week off on Wayland. Oh well.

Koharu

Predicted dub name: Cathy

VA: Leah Clark

Actual name: Katharine

Actual VA: Kerry Williams

Thoughts: Right around the name, but for the VA... that sure isn't a name I ever thought I'd hear again.

Bobby

Predicted dub name: Bobby

VA: Vic Mignogna

Actual name: Bobby

Actual VA: Darren Dunstan

Thoughts: In hindsight, Mignogna was a bad call. I really should remember Darren Dunstan more often though now that he's back.

Charles/Kaiketsu A☆Gilder

Predicted dub name: Swift Knight Ace☆Celgor

VA: Crispin Freeman or Christopher R. Sabat

Actual name: The Mighty Accelguard

Actual VA: Dan Green

Thoughts: This might be the most brilliant dub name I've ever seen. Well done, TPCI! And welcome back to Dan Green, as well.

Professor Tsuraraa/Freege Man

Predicted dub name: Dr. Freeze/Cryogo-Man

VA: J. Michael Tatum

Note: I really wanted to put Professor Subzero as a prediction relating to another Schwarzenegger movie, but a Batman reference is far more likely to actually happen.

Actual name: Doctor Ferrara/Cryogonal Man

Actual VA: Joe Rodriguez

Thoughts: Interesting that they went for a sound-alike name to "Tsuraraa" instead of a translation. Cryogonal Man was predictable.

Yūto

Predicted dub name: Hugo

VA: Vic Mignogna

Actual name: Lewis

Actual VA: Josh Ruben

Thoughts: His voice is okay, but Lewis? I don't get it.

Clay

VA: Dan Green or Marc Thompson

Actual VA: Sean Schemmel

Thoughts: Called it wrong, but I love what they did with his voice.

Cedric Juniper

VA: Troy Baker or Marc Thompson

Actual VA: Stan Hart

Thoughts: Oh wow. Remember what I said about Kerry Williams being a surprising name to see back? Multiply that by ten.

Nick

Predicted dub name: Nick

VA: Alyson Leigh Rosenfeld

Actual name: Mick

Actual VA: Alyson Leigh Rosenfeld

Thoughts: The name is one of those typical dub changes for the sake of changing something, but I actually got a voice actor right for once?!

Glenn

Predicted dub name: Glenn

VA: Ben Wayland

Actual name: Glenn

Actual VA: Gary Mack

Thoughts: Easy one.

Thane

Predicted dub name: Thane

VA: Henry Wayland

Actual name: Sean

Actual VA: Eli James

Thoughts: I'm actually quite surprised they changed this.

Skyla

VA: Trina Nishimura

Actual VA: Sarah Natochenny

Thoughts: I should have trusted my gut and went with Sarah Natochenny instead of taking the long shot I wanted to.

Mile

Predicted dub name: Miles

VA: Bill Tost

Actual name: Miles

Actual VA: H.D. Quinn

Thoughts: His name was obvious, but his voice was absolutely horrible. Bill Tost would have been much better.

Reiji

Predicted dub name: Bryce

VA: Leah Clark

Actual name: Ricky

Actual VA: George Bailey

Thoughts: I'm disappointed TPCi didn't catch the reference.

Akkie

Predicted dub name: Sagen

VA: Carter Cathcart

Actual name: Angus

Actual VA: George Bailey

Thoughts: Well, they took the names for these three in a totally different direction than I expected.

Chakkie

Predicted dub name: Sean

VA: Marc Thompson

Actual name: Getty

Actual VA: Benn Robbins

Thoughts: Not like this guy actually had a lot of dialogue to begin with.

Bakkie

Predicted dub name: Paula

VA: Sarah Natochenny

Actual name: Betty

Actual VA: Emily Jenness

Thoughts: I'll have to remember Emily Jenness for later ones. She gave Betty a great sinister-sounding voice.

Grace

Predicted dub name: Grace

VA: Lisa Ortiz

Actual name: Gail

Actual VA: Crystal Wilkinson

Thoughts: Another really pointless name change...

Domon

Predicted dub name: No guess

VA: Michael Alston Baley

Actual name: Delbert

Actual VA: Scott Williams

Thoughts: I guess that name was as good as one could hope for him. I'm not disappointed that I missed his VA, because even though I got the actor wrong he still sounded very close to what I expected.

Flora

Predicted dub name: Flora

VA: Leah Clark

Actual name: Flora

Actual VA: Lisa Ortiz

Thoughts: About as expected.

Edmond

Predicted dub name: Edmond

VA: Jamie McGonnigal

Actual name: Edmund

Actual VA: Tom Wayland

Thoughts: I'm not counting his name as a miss, because "Edmond" and "Edmund" are both correct romanizations of his Japanese name, and if "Edmund" was being used, I would have guessed it. I never would have gotten his VA, because Tom Wayland took him in a direction I never expected.

Masaomi

Predicted dub name: Maxwell

VA: Vic Mignogna or J. Michael Tatum

Actual name: Montgomery

Actual VA: Nicholas DiMichele

Thoughts: I was completely off, but I really like how he was dubbed.

Fujio

Predicted dub name: Grant

VA: Scottie Ray

Actual name: Ferris

Actual VA: Wayne Grayson

Thoughts: Meh on Ferris, but Grayson did his usual good job.

Stella

Predicted dub name: Stella

VA: TBD

Actual name: Sierra

Actual VA: Samia Mounts

Thoughts: I actually like Sierra as a name more than Stella.

Suwama

Predicted dub name: Sonny

VA: Billy Regan

Note: From sunny, related to the fact that all of the Pokémon he has ever been known to have are Fire-type.

Actual name: Shamus

Actual VA: Billy Bob Thompson

Thoughts: I can't help but wonder if he was named Shamus because of a certain incident brought up during the 2012 presidential campaign.

Rinzō

Predicted dub name: Roland or Rinzo

VA: Marc Thompson

Actual name: Rizzo

Actual VA: Tom Wayland

Thoughts: Or that.

Brycen

VA: Dan Green

Actual VA: Benjamin Becker

Thoughts: This guy was good, I hope he gets another role.

Momocchi

Predicted dub name: TBD

VA: TBD

Actual name: Marigold

Actual VA: Emily Jenness

Thoughts: Good name and voice.

Pinot Noir

Predicted dub name: TBD

VA: TBD

Actual name: Ricard Nouveau

Actual VA: H.D. Quinn

Thoughts: I'm glad he got a good name. H.D. Quinn is far better as Ricard's voice than he was as Miles, too.

Mr. Hattori

Predicted dub name: Mr. Hattori

VA: TBD

Actual name: Mr. Hatterly

Actual VA: Marc Thompson

Thoughts: Eh, it's more or less decent.

Clay (BW081)

Predicted dub name: Clayton

VA: Wayne Grayson

Actual name: Case

Actual VA: Eli James

Thoughts: Well, that's a random name.

Professor Marble

Predicted dub name: Doctor Marble

VA: Mike Pollock

Actual name: Professor Malveaux

Actual VA: Sean Schemmel

Thoughts: I like the name, but it's a little random, just like Case's.

Jaws

Predicted dub name: Jaws

VA: Carter Cathcart

Actual name: Jules

Actual VA: Unknown

Thoughts: Meh. I think he was Carter Cathcart, but it's never been confirmed.

Gold (anime)

Predicted dub name: Mr. Gold

VA: Michael Alston Baley

Actual name: Mr. Gold

Actual VA: Marc Thompson

Thoughts: Got one!

Homika

Predicted English name: Venus (Hats off to you Kenji-girl, this one's excellent and I have to agree with it.)

VA: Carrie Savage or Dani Marcus

Actual name: Roxie

Actual VA: Alyson Rosenfeld

Thoughts: She got dubbed really well.

Kyouhei

Predicted English name: TBD

VA: Julián Rebolledo

Actual name: Nate

Actual VA: Tom Wayland

Thoughts: See below.

Mei

Predicted English name: TBD

VA: N/A

Actual name: Rosa

Actual VA: Lisa Ortiz

Thoughts: Rosa and Nate got a great pair of names to preserve the meaning of their original names.

Hugh

Predicted English name: TBD

VA: Jason Griffith

Actual name: Hugh

Actual VA: Sean Schemmel

Thoughts: I'm kind of surprised they kept his name.

Cheren

VA: Vic Mignogna

Actual VA: Jason Griffith

Thoughts: This one just didn't work.

Akuroma

Predicted English name: Albert

VA: Marc Diraison or J. Michael Tatum

Actual name: Colress

Actual VA: Sean Schemmel

Thoughts: Totally missed his name, but his voice at least sounded like what I hoped for.

Team Plasma

VA (female Grunt): Evelyn Lanto

Actual VA (female Grunt): Eileen Stevens

Thoughts: Meh.

Shadow Triad

VA (first member): Billy Regan

Actual VA (first member): Jason Griffith

Thoughts: This worked, but sounded totally different than what I expected.

N

VA: Billy Bob Thompson or Tom Wayland

Actual VA: Tom Wayland

Thoughts: Got it!

Jeremy

Predicted dub name: Jeremy

VA: Ted Lewis

Actual name: Jervis

Actual VA: Sean Schemmel

Thoughts: I suppose he needed a more generic butler name. Sean Schemmel did well as his voice.

Chris

Predicted dub name: Chris

VA: TBD

Actual name: Chris

Actual VA: Lisa Ortiz

Thoughts: His name was easy to guess.

Caitlin

VA: Lisa Ortiz or Evelyn Lanto

Actual VA: Cristina Valenzuela

Marufuji

Predicted English name: Mario

VA: Jason Griffith

Kenta

Predicted English name: Ken

VA: Alyson Leigh Rosenfeld

Sugiura

Predicted English name: TBD

VA: Sean Schemmel

Morishima

Predicted English name: Marlena

VA: Sarah Natochenny

Hirokazu

Predicted English name: TBD

VA: TBD

Kobashi

Predicted English name: Kerry

VA: Alyson Leigh Rosenfeld

Rikiō

Predicted English name: Ricardo

VA: N/A

Kyurem (M15)

VA: Dan Green

Actual VA: Marc Thompson

Thoughts: Marc voices all three of the Tao trio. Huh.

Keldeo (M15)

VA: Kerry Williams

Actual VA: Vic Mignogna

Thoughts: Well then, that came out of nowhere.

Cobalion (M15)

VA: Tom Wayland

Actual VA: H.D. Quinn

Thoughts: This guy really impresses me. He's improved in every role since he debuted.

Terrakion (M15)

VA: Sean Schemmel

Actual VA: Henry Carr

Thoughts: Another great new cast member.

Virizion (M15)

VA: Marc Thompson or Michele Knotz

Actual VA: Emily Williams

Thoughts: Virizion had a huge range her voice could have gone. Sounding just like Cynthia is one I didn't anticipate.

Malin

Predicted dub name: Malin

VA: Lisa Ortiz or Alyson Leigh Rosenfeld

Note: The original translation of this character's name was "Marin," at which point my guess of "Malin" was made.

Actual name: Malin

Actual VA: Erica Schroeder

Thoughts: Name was obvious, voice worked. Not like she did much...

Kotetsu

Predicted dub name: Carsten

VA: Billy Bob Thompson

Note: Carsten is this character's German name.

Actual name: Cameron

Actual VA: Rory Max Kaplan

Thoughts: Well then, I didn't think his name would be changed to that. His voice is alright.

Marlon

VA: Ted Lewis

Actual VA: Ted Lewis

Thoughts: Oh wow, I actually got this one! Too bad his voice ended up being awful anyway.

Layla

Predicted dub name: Layla

VA: Erica Schroeder

Actual name: Layla

Actual VA: Cristina Vee

Thoughts: The name was easy, but holy crap I did not see Cristina Vee coming. The show's really stepped up their game with casting.

Larry

Predicted dub name: Larry

VA: Marc Diraison

Actual name: Ridley

Actual VA: Tucker Allan

Thoughts: Well, at least he got a better name.
