Of course, to me it's obvious that the design was first intended for the games and just previewed early in the TCG, but release matters.
- 18:5018:50, 29 October 2024 diff hist −105 List of cross-canon references →In the core series games: The female TR Grunt design is as old as 1997 - it debuted in the Team Rocket TCG set. As GS was already in development, it's probably a teaser in both TCG and the anime but no matter how we look at this, Cassidy is not the original design. TCG was earlier.

- 13:3113:31, 4 May 2024 diff hist −31 Vincent 준이치 was never his Korean name. It's just a transliteration that was used because he lacked a Korean name (the last Johto episodes never aired in South Korea). Now he has one due to that Korean-only Johto League special (a "movie" made by combined and heavily truncated season finale episodes). Information via Korean Pokemon Wiki.

- 07:3007:30, 27 January 2024 diff hist +11 Silph Co. →Terminology: It's an artwork straight from GF (by Ken Sugimori) and has nothing to do with localization. These artworks use Japanese terminology in Romaji (like S.S. ANNU on the Ticket), so this counts as Japanese name. I don't think that this artwork has been ever used in any English-language publication, anyway.

It's the anime Nurse Joys are closely based on the respective Gen's PC Lady design since Kalos. The only undispusted anime reference is the LGPE PC Lady, who is obviously based on the original Joy.

- 17:2817:28, 10 November 2023 diff hist +7 After the Rain With You LOTS of misconceptions here. Firstly, the main character is named Anna, not Juliana (that'd be Aoi in Japanese - whether she's supposed to be Juliana's counterpart is speculative to me). Secondly, it is a novel, not a manga. Thirdly, the illustrations are credited on the final page. None of them was drawn by Takeda.

Also, I wonder if their English names are some staff inside jokes, like their Japanese names. They got suddenly renamed during the localization process (leaked translation files reveal that they were once named Stan and Fiona in the beta stage), so maybe they had something in mind.

- 10:0510:05, 3 September 2023 diff hist +3 Pokémon in Poland →Pokémon manga: The series wasn't "unpopular". Most Polish Pokemon fans of the time didn't have the chance to know it existed because of poor distribution. The publisher did zero effort to advertise it, they didn't respect the source material, they just thought that everything with Pokemon logo on it would stonks (that's the only reason they bought ithe rights). So, "low sales" is a better explanation. But the true reason for it is JPF's incompetence.

- 16:2116:21, 25 August 2023 diff hist +124 List of characters in other languages Added some Chinese names from Masters and the TCG. Since SM was released in Chinese and the naming was reformed, things are consistent now. I wouldn't put my money on anime and (especially) manga but post-SM names from the TCG should be valid because it's Nintendo-supervised.

They're consistently used on all official screenshots, so they're just like Florian/Juliana, Victor/Gloria etc. They're perfectly valid character names.

Those two are manga-exclusive and history shows that names have often been contradicted by later game translations (e.g. Eusine was Minaki in PokeSpe, then Suho in HGSS).

Also, dub VAs are often cast based on voice similarity from the original and in this case it seems plausible that they just cast their regular "tough guy" voice. Really nothing special going on here.
