Talk:Which One ~ Is It?

Name meaning

OK, so the "nyo" part of the title is the same as the first part of the Japanese names of the Poliwag family (so I were to translate, nyo=Poli). Anyone knows what the "dotchi" part is supposed to mean? --electAbuzzzz 15:38, 1 October 2009 (UTC)

I'm sure nyo has other meanings besides the first part of the Polis' Japanese names. --ケンジのガール 04:20, 2 October 2009 (UTC)

Actually, I just spent a few minutes with Google, and got to a thread on Serebii claiming the following: "Dojotchi" is the pokemon known as "Barboach" in the U.S. and sounds similar to the word dotchi (which means "which?"). The nyo part is also similar to Nyoromo, Nyorozo, Nyorobon, and Nyorotono ("Poliwag," "Poliwhirl," "Poliwrath," and "Politoed").

I still don't see a way to translate this title properly, though. Maybe we'll just keep it at its current name... --electAbuzzzz 10:39, 2 October 2009 (UTC)
