According to the guidebook (which I don't currently have but {{u|Abcboy}} does), these values are known as "Go Power". While we ignore the official names of EVs and IVs due to the unofficial names becoming ingrained in the fandom before the official ones were widely used, there's no reason to use the unofficial name for a new kind of stat. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 03:39, 1 December 2018 (UTC) | According to the guidebook (which I don't currently have but {{u|Abcboy}} does), these values are known as "Go Power".

:The "Awakening" name is taken from a dump of [https://twitter.com/Kaphotics/status/1061464002000150528 text strings in the game's symbol table], so in a sense this ''is'' the official name that they use internally, as contrasted with the name they use in outward communication to describe the concept.

::Purely internal names aren't official names. Internal naming only needs to be meaningful to the Japanese developers, not anyone else. And while "awakening" is used with respect to them internally, it's not like the name "awakening values" is actually used. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 14:40, 1 December 2018 (UTC) | |||
