No.054~055 Psyduck, Golduck

Please let me know if there are any mistranslations, interpretations, or typos. Many people have been speculating about the etymology of Golduck using various words. I've chosen the one I think fits best. Reason for inferring 'Goal': I thought of it as a young duck evolving to reach adulthood (the final goal). -Other etymologies for Golduck- Gold: Gold, golden Is it because Golduck has a ruby-like gem on its forehead??? Nah, no way.

No.052~053 Naong, Pershion

*Please let me know if there are any mistranslations, paraphrases, or typos. You can think of Naong as being named after a kitten's "meow~" sound. Pershion... looks way cooler than an actual Persian cat.

No.050~051 Diglett, Dugtrio

*Please let me know if there are any mistranslations, free translations, or typos. Diglett and Dugtrio are classified as moles, which is reflected in their names. Dig dig!! Dug Dug!!! This is how Diglett and Dugtrio might sound. The suffix -let in Diglett's English name means a small child, like Piglet (a baby pig). In Japanese, the origin is ディグ+ダグ (Digu+Dagu), and apparently, there's an old game called Dig Dug where you dig to catch monsters. Dugtrio... because of the word 'Trio'... you know the NPC construction workers with helmets in Pokémon? I imagined three workers, shoulder-to-shoulder, holding shovels and saying, "Let's dig! Dig the ground!" ㄷㄷㄷ For Diglett, I imagined a child dressed as a worker, holding a trowel, ready to dig! You guys, don't imagine this... I asked ChatGPT. 😁😁

No.048~049 Konpang, Donari

Please let me know if there are any mistranslations, free translations, or typos. It seems the Japanese names focus on appearance, while the English names emphasize the type. Gnat, when searched in a dictionary, translates to '각다귀' (a type of fly), and another English word for it is 'Crane fly'. This means 'Gnat' is likely used as a general term for small, annoying flying insects rather than specifically referring to '각다귀'. Konpang... A poisonous, annoying flying insect (wingless). Donari was created with a butterfly motif, but its appearance strongly resembles a moth. Short antennae, a plump body and fur... although the wings are more butterfly-like. There's also a rumor that the designs for Butterfree and Donari have changed! From a design perspective, it seems plausible... but since there's no official explanation, it remains pure speculation. Fish evolve into octopuses, and the design of Konpang evolving into Donari... I don't think it's strange.

No.046~047 Paras, Parasect

Please let me know if there are any mistranslations, errors, or typos. Paras: The Parasite & Parasect: The Parasitized Bug Looking at the origin of their names... it reminds me of the circulating Pokémon creepypasta. Parasect's eyes disappeared because Paras was killed by being parasitized by the mushroom 😨 It turns out the Pokédex descriptions weren't creepypasta but facts. Official website Pokédex description: "A large mushroom on its back grows by feeding on its host. If the Pokémon becomes weakened, the mushroom cap will not grow well." "The mushroom that grows on its back is said to be the true master controlling its host." "It was found in the forest. The mushroom that grew on its back had already grown too big. It was found that the big mushroom on its back was the true master controlling its host." (Note: The official English Pokédex entries are slightly different and more factual, so I've provided a blend that captures the original intent and the creepypasta feel.) But looking at the etymology of the Pokémon... they were already dead from the Paras stage... The true master of Paras and Parasect is the 🍄... Everyone, be careful of the mushrooms when raising Paras 😨😨

No.043~045 Gloom Bloom, Vile Bloom, Rafflesia

Please let me know if there are any mistranslations, paraphrases, or typos. Gloom Bloom and Vile Bloom incorporate their respective characteristics into their names. Mysterious grass, smelly flower.... The English names seem to be based on their appearance. Weird mushroom, sad flower (expression), nasty thing with a big decoration..... Photo 4 is of an actual flower called Rafflesia. It's famous for being the largest flower in the world. Its characteristics include being a parasite on trees without roots, stems, or leaves, and it emits a very foul odor to attract insects like flies for pollination. This Rafflesia flower was the motif for the Gloom Bloom line, and the final evolution, Rafflesia, is the flower itself🤭

No.041~42 Zubat, Golbat

Please let me know if there are any mistranslations, paraphrases, or typos. It was difficult to pinpoint the etymology of Zubat and Golbat as the internet searches yielded a mix of confusing terms or words that were hard to consider as origins. Regarding Golbat's 'Gol' (Gore), some believed it referred to 'Ghoul,' but I thought it would be more accurate to include only 'Gore,' so I've applied that interpretation. Golbat's Pokedex entry (Pikachu version): - It swoops down silently from anywhere. It bites with its V-shaped fangs and drains blood.
