Tag Alias: platina_(pokemon) -> platina_berlitz

Aliasing platina_(pokemon) -> platina_berlitz.

Reason: Full name; also include platinum_(pokemon) > platina_berlitz

I'm iffy on these official name aliases unless I know where said official names are coming from.

I grabbed this one from Bulbapedia, though it conflicts with Wikipedia's stance, and neither give a reference. There is a company handling English releases of the comics in Singapore, if any scans or site info can be gleaned from that (as the Japanese site just has "Ojyou[sama]").

Didn't we agree to use Japanese names for characters? What use are English releases then?

If neither sources gave a reference, then that's a red flag already.

What I meant by English was a rendering. Poke around on ofikal (or derived-from-ofikal) pages for プラチナ・ベルリッツ; I mighta woulda, 'cept I wouldn't understand much anything surrounding.

Okay there wasn't any discussion in forum #19143 so I went ahead and did it, but should I reconsider that one? It did come up in Bulbapedia when I googled it, but if that's not a good source, let me know.

Otherwise I was going to put this one through too.

Bulbapedia is typically the place I go to when I'm looking for the Japanese name of a Pokemon character. It's probably the best source you could get on such a subject.

Then again, I don't really spread out from the few sites I know when it comes to the internet.

While I don't really care one way or another, the only hits I'm finding for プラチナ・ベルリッツ on google are references to a couple videos on niconico, some chinese wiki, bulbapedia, the japanese uncyclopedia and a thai forum. It really seems like bulbapedia took what the english releases in singapore were using and figured out the japanese equivalent for the name to be.

Anything for the names separate? I'd imagine "Berlitz" may have been attached when "Ojyousama" was her 'given' name, and perhaps the Platina/Platinum reveal hasn't set in all that much. </devil's advocate>

The real problem is this company really screws up searches for berlitz and ベルリッツ so personally I won't be sifting through all 170k+ hits for a name vs a company, but if someone else wants to I honestly wish them the best of luck.
