i wonder how google translate learned how to translate the names of pokémon

@pup_hime i guess that makes the most sense but i like the idea of someone having to manually teach it all the pokémon names

@typhlosion well, its a mix of both, it also uses what people enter to correct the translation afaik

@typhlosion i wish it was just internet saturation, but google have done so many things with nintendo and TPC in the past, they probably put them in by hand at some point.

@typhlosion there used to be a site where you could feed it manual translations, I bet someone went and did that
