User:Anzasquiddles/List of Indonesian Pokémon names (fanmade)

← Go back

DISCLAIMER: These names are not official. This is just something I'm doing for fun.

Welcome! This is my personal project, where I try to come up with Indonesian names for Pokémon. With more and more Pokémon media being translated into Indonesian (such as mobile games and TCG), I think it's a bit weird that they still use English Pokémon names instead of original Indonesian names.

Notes

• All names must fit the 12-character limit for Latin alphabet languages.
• Some names I decided to keep the same as, or transliterate from, the Japanese/English names. These names are usually for really iconic and well known Pokémon (eg. Pikachu), or legendary/mythical Pokémon (eg. Raikou). Or I just think the names do not need changing.
  • Generally speaking, if a Pokémon's English name is the same as its Japanese, I will go and use the Japanese name as well.
• I will put notes on some of these entries, basically stating my opinions, putting alternate names I've considered, and whatnot.

Pronunciation guides

Note that I am not a linguist, so these are just approximations of what I think they sound like when compared to general English vowels.

• Vowels: Vowels are generally consistent (with one exception)
  • "A" makes a roughly open /a/ sound (as in "art").
  • "I", "Y" make an /i/ sound (as in "bit", "rhythm").
    • "SY" generally makes a "sh" or /ʃ/ sound.
  • "U" makes an /u/ sound (as in "book", "full").
  • "O" makes an /o/ sound (as in "rob").
  • "E" can make either a mid-front /e/ sound (as in "bed") or a schwa /ə/ sound (as in "berg"). It isn't generally indicated which pronunciation will be used, so figuring out which is which can be a trial and error thing. Sometimes the different e's are marked, with acute e ("é") for the mid-front /e/ sound (eg. "Pokémon"), and circumflex e ("ê") for the schwa /e/ sound.
• "C" always makes a "ch" or /t͡ʃ/ sound (as in "cheese"). Example: Cabai (pronounced "cha-bai").
• "G" is always a hard G. (Soft G is just a J in disguise, anyway.)
• Exceptions to these: Loanwords in which the letters are pronounced differently (eg. "C" may make a "k" sound or an "s" sound if it's part of a loanword). I generally try to make sure all my Pokémon names are written as how they are pronounced, though.

0047		パラセクト Parasect	Parasect	Parasera	Parasit: Indonesian for parasite Serangga: Indonesian for bug, insect	—
0052		ニャース Nyarth	Meowth	Miawth	Transliteration of English name	This name is not coined by me! Instead, it was used in various materials related to the anime: [1], [2], [3].

0079		ヤドン Yadon	Slowpoke	Silamban	Si Lamban: Indonesian, lit. "the slow [one]" Also sounds similar to siluman: Indonesian, roughly translates to "demon"	...To be fair, this series isn't called "Pocket Monsters" for nothing.
0080		ヤドラン Yadoran	Slowbro	Sanglamban	Sang Lamban: Indonesian, lit. "the slow [one]" Also from Silamban (Slowpoke)	...Yes, both "si" and "sang" are both used in epithets as "the", but "sang" is more formal and poetic. Special thanks to fellow Bulbagarden member silurica for suggesting this name. Also, incidentally, Bfdifan2006 pointed out that the name also contains a corruption of langsam (German for slow). I didn't intend it, but that's a fun coincidence!

0087		ジュゴン Jugon	Dewgong	Duyugong	Duyung, ikan duyung: Indonesian for dugong English dugong	The word "duyung" also forms the Indonesian term "putri duyung" (mermaid, lit. "dugong princess"). du yu even gong, bro?

0092		ゴース Ghos	Gastly	Ghast	English/Indonesian gas English ghost, ghast	—
0093		ゴースト Ghost	Haunter	Hantur	English name Haunter Hantu: Indonesian for ghost	If you think it's lame that I only added "R" to the Indonesian word for ghost for this mon's name, let me introduce you to this Indonesian Haunter card, which translates Haunter's name in the card's dex entry into simply "Hantu". It's just like how this mon's Japanese name is literally just "Ghost", i guess.
0094		ゲンガー Gangar	Gengar	Gengar	Same as Japanese/English names	—
0095		イワーク Iwark	Onix	Onix	Same as English name	—

0101		マルマイン Marumine	Electrode	Bombolta	Bom: Indonesian for bomb Bolta (Voltorb)	In the Indonesian translation of the TCG, Electrode was named "Elektroda" (literally just the Indonesian translation of the English word "electrode"), although this was changed in an errata issued on March 19, 2021. You can see cards named "Elektroda" here: [4], [5].

0202		ソーナンス Sonans	Wobbuffet	Bagitu	English bag (as in punching bag) Begitu: Indonesian for "like that" Begitulah: Indonesian for "That's [how it is]"; riffing on Wobbuffet's Japanese name being a pun on そうなんす Sō na-n-su ("That's the way it is.").	This name is not coined by me! It was actually created by the official localizers. It was even used a few times in official anime promos ([6], [7]) and once in the TCG, although it has not gotten any more use since. It's really weird that the localizers came up with a name but didn't seem to be interested in using it.

#	MS	Japanese	English	Indonesian	Meaning	Notes
0278		キャモメ Camome	Wingull	Galmar	English gull Camar: Indonesian for gull English fulmar (a type of seabird similar in appearance to a gull)	No, I have never played Skyrim. I came up with this name first before googling it and finding that there's a Skyrim character I had never heard of with this name.
0279		ペリッパー Pelipper	Pelipper	Pelipper	Same as Japanese/English names	—
0280		ラルトス Ralts	Ralts	Ralts	Same as Japanese/English names	—

0288		ヤルキモノ Yarukimono	Vigoroth	Kungmangat	Kungkang: Indonesian for sloth (the animal) Semangat: Indonesian for passion, vigor	—
0289		ケッキング Kekking	Slaking	Kungking	Kungkang: Indonesian for sloth (the animal) English king	I often struggle coming up with these names. Slaking is the opposite: I came up with so many names for this thing, and I had a hard time deciding which one I ultimately want to use. Other candidates include Kingkung (similar to King Kong), Kingkang (also similar to King Kong; and also the name of a village in Central Java, apparently), and Kingkungkang.
0293		ゴニョニョ Gonyonyo	Whismur	Bibisik	Bisik: Indonesian for whisper	—

0299		ノズパス Nosepass	Nosepass	Hidungalor	Hidung: Indonesian for nose Ngalor: Javanese for "to go north"	The Indonesian word "hidung" is not to be confused with Sundanese "hideung", meaning "black".
0311		プラスル Prasle	Plusle	Plusar	English/Indonesian plus Arnab: Malay for rabbit Anagram of pulsar	When I was a kid, I watched a bootleg copy of Destiny Deoxys with poorly translated subtitles, which also gave original "localized" names for various Pokémon, such as "Odyssey" for "Deoxys". Plusle and Minun's names were translated to "Arnab Positif" (lit. "Positive Rabbit") and "Arnab Negatif" (lit. "Negative Rabbit) respectively, which I thought was pretty funny.
0312		マイナン Minun	Minun	Minab	English/Indonesian minus Arnab: Malay for rabbit
0314		イルミーゼ Illumise	Illumise	Illumise	Same as Japanese/English names	—

0332		ノクタス Noctus	Cacturne	Noktus	Nokturnal: Indonesian for nocturnal Kaktus: Indonesian for cactus Transliteration of Japanese name	—
0333		チルット Tyltto	Swablu	Pastyl	Kapas: Indonesian for cotton English/Indonesian pastel (subdued, light color) Mytyl and Tyltyl (main characters of The Blue Bird by Belgian playwright Maurice Maeterlinck)	The Indonesian word "pastel" also refers to curry puffs, derived from the Portuguese word pastel (fried pastry).
0334		チルタリス Tyltalis	Altaria	Altaria	Same as English name	—
0335		ザングース Zangoose	Zangoose	Zangarang	斬 Zan: Japanese for slash Garangan: Indonesian for mongoose Garang: Indonesian for ferocious	—
0336		ハブネーク Habunake	Seviper	Habudak	波布 Habu: Japanese (Ryukyuan) term for certain pit vipers Beludak: Indonesian for viper	—
0337		ルナトーン Lunatone	Lunatone	Lunatu	Luna: Latin for Moon Batu: Indonesian for stone	—
0338		ソルロック Solrock	Solrock	Solrok	Sol: Latin for Sun English rock Transliteration of Japanese/English names	—
0347		アノプス Anopth	Anorith	Anorith	Same as English name	—
0348		アーマルド Armaldo	Armaldo	Armaldo	Same as Japanese/English names	Armaldo is a weird name. Like, it sounds very similar to real people names like Arnold or Leonardo, even though it's not one. It really messes with my head.
0357		トロピウス Tropius	Tropius	Tropius	Same as Japanese/English names	—
0359		アブソル Absol	Absol	Absol	Same as Japanese/English names	—
0369		ジーランス Glanth	Relicanth	Relikanth	Transliteration of English name Contains the words relik, relikui (Indonesian for relic) and ikan (Indonesian for fish)	The Indonesian coelacanth (the one with the brown coloration Relicanth most closely resembles) is locally known as "ikan raja laut", literally "sea king fish". Something about Relicanth's Japanese name that I have never seen anyone talk about: it sounds so... weird thanks to character limits. The intended name was most likely going to be ジーラカンス Jīrakansu (like シーラカンス Shīrakansu (Coelacanth) but you replace the シー shī with ジー / 爺 jī, meaning "old man"); however, since at the time Japanese Pokémon names were limited to 5 characters, the name got shortened to ジーランス Jīransu. Now, why they transliterated it to Glanth (like G-Lanth), of all things, is a mystery I don't think I will ever know the answer to. Also, an alternate name I came up with that ended up unused was Dahulakanth, derived from dahulu kala (Indonesian for "a long time ago") and English coelacanth. I ended up scrapping it because it is an incredibly dumb name. Whew, that's a lot of paragraphs talking about Relicanth of all things. Anyway!
0374		ダンバル Dumbber	Beldum	Belbar	Barbel: Indonesian for dumbbell	—
0375		メタング Metang	Metang	Metang	Same as Japanese/English names	—
0376		メタグロス Metagross	Metagross	Metagross	Same as Japanese/English names	—
0377		レジロック Regirock	Regirock	Regirokk	Rokke: Middle English for rock Transliteration of Japanese/English names	Tried adjusting the names for these three so that they are spelled the same way they are phonetically pronounced. A bit awkward, but whatever works, I suppose. (Regigigas, Regieleki, and Regidrago do not have this problem, so their names are unchanged.)
0378		レジアイス Regice	Regice	Regiais	Ais: Malay for ice Transliteration of Japanese/English names
0379		レジスチル Registeel	Registeel	Registahl	Regis: Latin for royal Stahl: German for steel
0380		ラティアス Latias	Latias	Latias	Same as Japanese/English names	—
0381		ラティオス Latios	Latios	Latios	Same as Japanese/English names	—
0382		カイオーガ Kyogre	Kyogre	Kaioger	Transliteration of Japanese/English names	I love this mon but I never liked the romanization of its name. I (and I assume so many other people) would always pronounce the first syllable as "kyo" instead of the intended "kai-o".
0383		グラードン Groudon	Groudon	Groudon	Same as Japanese/English names	—
0384		レックウザ Rayquaza	Rayquaza	Rayquaza	Same as Japanese/English names	—

0450		カバルドン Kabaldon	Hippowdon		Kuda nil, kudanil: Indonesian for hippopotamus ??	Fun fact: the Indonesian word "kuda nil" literally translates to "horse of the Nile". "Hippopotamus" itself is derived from Greek for "river horse", so that's pretty neat.

0493		アルセウス Arceus	Arceus	Arceus	Same as Japanese/English names	"Is it pronounced with a hard C or a soft C?" Neither. It's pronounced with a /ch/ sounding "C" (like "Ar-chay-us"). That way, nobody is happy :D But really though, pronounce the C however you want. When adapting these names to Indonesian, I usually try to change pronunciation traps (things like soft G or C, or unintuitive spelling in general) so that they are more easier to pronounce, but I'll make an exception just for this one.

0653		フォッコ Fokko	Fennekin	Rubara	Rubah: Indonesian for fox Bara: Indonesian for ember	Special thanks to fellow Bulbagarden member Lagu for suggesting this name. (This name was originally suggested for Braixen, though.)
0658		ゲッコウガ Gekkouga	Greninja	Greninja	Same as English name	Yeah, no change here. I just really like the name "Greninja"; it combines the French word "grenouille" (frog) + ninja and it's perfect.
0659		ホルビー Horubee	Bunnelby	Galinci	Gali: Indonesian for "[to] dig" Kelinci: Indonesian for rabbit, bunny	—
0660		ホルード Horudo	Diggersby	Terowelu	Terowongan: Indonesian for tunnel Terwelu: Indonesian for hare	An alternate name I had considered was "Terowonglu". Same etymology, it's just that the "terowongan" bit is more obvious. Ultimately I decided to go with "Terowelu" as it rolls off the tongue better.
0666		ビビヨン Viviyon	Vivillon	Viviyon	Same as Japanese name	The name "Vivillon" is so often mispronounced due to not many people knowing one of its root words ("papillon", French for butterfly, pronounced "papiyon"). Thus I decided to go with the Japanese spelling of the name.

0734		ヤングース Youngoose	Yungoos	Garankii	Garangan: Indonesian for mongoose Garang: Indonesian for ferocious ヤンキー Yankī: Japanese term for a certain style of delinquent youth, typically modeling themselves after American culture	I was really considering "Yungarang" or "Yangarang" for this mon to match the "young" in its Japanese and English name, but I ultimately decided against it to avoid confusion with Zangarang (Zangoose; see section "Generation III"). Besides, "Garankii" flows well into its evolution's name below...
0735		デカグース Dekagoose	Gumshoos	Garangkara	Garangan: Indonesian for mongoose Bhayangkara: Name of the elite troops of the former Majapahit kingdom, now another name for the Indonesian National Police	—

0765		ヤレユータン Yareyuutan	Oranguru	Oranguru	Same as English name	...I mean, "orangutan" is derived from Indonesian, and "guru" is Indonesian for teacher (derived from the Sanskrit term "guru"), so technically this is already an Indonesian name, no...?
0766		ナゲツケサル Nagetukesaru	Passimian	Lemupar	English/Indonesian lemur Lempar: Indonesian for "[to] throw"	An earlier name I came up with for this mon is Oprimata, derived from oper (Indonesian for "[to] pass (esp. in sports), [to] hand over, [to] transfer") and primata (Indonesian for primate). It's basically a less creative, word-for-word translation of the English name. I also came up with Lempur (same etymology as the current name), but I ended up not using it because it has the same name as a village in Jambi.
0771		ナマコブシ Namakobushi	Pyukumuku	Teripanch	Teripang: Indonesian for sea cucumber English punch	Other names I've considered include Tinjuripang or Juripang... "tinju" is Indonesian for punch/fist, also boxing.
0772		タイプ：ヌル Type: Null	Type: Null	Tipe: Nol	Tipe: Nol: Indonesian, lit. "Type: Zero"	This name is not coined by me! It was actually used in the TCG and the official Indonesian Pokédex website until March 19, 2021: [10].

0775		ネッコアラ Nekkoara	Komala	Koalelap	English/Indonesian koala Lelap: Indonesian for "fast asleep"	Honestly, I could've just used this mon's English name, but the thing is "Komala" is a somewhat common real name in some parts of the world including Indonesia (it's a variant on "Kamala" or "Kumala", basically).
0776		バクガメス Bakugames	Turtonator	Ranjelus	Ranjau: Indonesian for landmine or caltrop Chelus: Genus of mata mata turtles	I like this name. Sounds very Monster Hunter-ish. "Hello!"

0788		カプ・レヒレ Kapu Rehire	Tapu Fini	Kapu Finisi	Kapu: Hawaiian for taboo, sacred, holy English fin, finish Pinisi: Type of sailing ship rigging traditional to Sulawesi	—

On a related note, here is an example of a gordang sambilan performance. It's really fun to watch.

0930		オリーヴァ Oliva	Arboliva	Zaithena	Zaitun: Indonesian for olive Athena: Greek goddess of wisdom, whose symbol was the olive tree	I stole this idea from Arboliva's German name (Olithena). Incorporating Athena into the name is really clever.
