English Starter Pokemon & Region Names Revealed!

Hello, Pokemon fans! The starter Pokemon for Black and White Versions were shown to people in Japan, and now the American names for them have been revealed!

Tsutarja is named Snivy.

Pokabu is Tepig.

And Mijumaru is now known as Oshawott.

The names may seem weird to some people. I thought they were very peculiar at first, but I just got used to them. I still think the name 'Oshawott' sounds weird, though.... oh well.

The English region name has also been revealed. The Generation V region, Isshu, is now called Unova.

Pokemon: Black and White Versions will be coming to the United States in April 2011. It is possible that you might get a preorder figure (Reshiram for Black; Zekrom for White) if you preorder before the release date. We'll see sometime soon.
