Talk:Pokémon in Poland

Statement of game language

"All Pokémon games sold in Poland are in English."

This statement is factually incorrect. While possibly true for the Gameboy era; but since DS allows users in Europe to choose any European language available for the games, Polish players can choose between English, German, Spanish, French and Italian; and with the Switch, Polish players can now also pick Japanese, Korean and Chinese. So a Polish player who only speaks Polish and German would likely play the games in German. Since Poland has an English proficiency at 33% and German at 19%; players using German shouldn't be out of the norm.

Since Gameboy doesn't have a system language option, and as far as I'm aware the games doesn't allow you to pick language, this would be correct for those games. Note that this statement is likewise incorrect for other articles like for Norway, Sweden, Czech Republic, Slovakia, and more European countries. Liggliluff (talk) 22:06, 21 August 2021 (UTC)

This statement most likely refers to the boxes/covers games are sold in. Official distribution of Pokémon games in Poland is always of the English box art. 𝐍𝐚𝐌𝐫𝐨𝐳 _►Talk 13:14, 22 January 2026 (UTC)

Core Pokémon games for the DS don't have language options either, each cartridge can only be played in one language. Kikugi (talk) 17:53, 22 January 2026 (UTC)
