User:Kenji-girl/U.S. name predictions

From Bulbapedia, the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia.

These are my guesses to what the new names of future game/anime characters will be once they debut in the US.

Game

Character	First appearance	US name prediction	Why	Actual US name	Accuracy
Yukari	My Pokémon Ranch	Mimi	Derived from "Mii" of course. Also is like "Bebe".	Hayley	WAY OFF!
Hajime	Pokémon Ranger: Shadows of Almia	Ordell	Ordell means "beginning". Just like Hajime.	N/A	N/A
Hitomi	Pokémon Ranger: Shadows of Almia	Iris	Because Hitomi can mean "eye" or "pupil", that's why I thought of Iris	N/A	N/A
