Japanese doesn't have a native word for orange. They use オレンジ (Orenji, borrowed from English orange). That's why the first one surprised me.

@Wandergirl108 Ай бұрын

…How, exactly? They have native words for other colors, and orange is a color, that's literally a universal thing, so like…how did they ever not have a word for "the color you get when you mix red and yellow"? That doesn't make any sense!

@onijester56 Ай бұрын

@@Wandergirl108 The Japanese word for "Green", is Midori. This did not exist in Japanese until at the earliest like the 800's or very very late 700's AD. Of which the word originally referred to "fresh" things such as grass and trees. "木々は緑です", literally "The trees are green" INITIALLY meant the trees are ALIVE. Now, Japanese does have a phrase that could translate to "Orange" before the inclusion of Orange/Orenji as a loanword. That phrase is "炎色", "Flame-Color" with the kanji specifically for fire and the kanji specifically for color right next to each other.

@Wandergirl108 Ай бұрын

@@onijester56 Ah, I see…so they described colors using other words associated with them, before the West introduced the concept of identifying colors in a vacuum. That's kinda cool, actually…

@onijester56 Ай бұрын

@@Wandergirl108 The cool thing is that the West did the same thing, for most of its history. If my etymology is correct, the word "White" is ultimately the modification of a root meaning "Bright" or "Shine". Likewise, "Red" in the western world historically has been applied to everything from purple things to pink things... which makes sense given that while its etymological root technically means "Red" it is the root from which we get the word "Rust". For most of the West's history "Red" and "Rust-Colored" were the same word. At some point, we decided to separate the two. Probably those ancient philosophers' fault. I blame Socrates, lol.

We didn't know the name for Snubble back then either. Ho-oh, Togepi, Marill, and Snubble have always been the most special and most important of the Gen 2 Pokemon, because they were introduced so far ahead of Gen 2 with virtually ZERO explanation, and that made them TRULY absolutely legendary, like Mew. ACTUAL mythical Pokemon with REAL WORLD myths and legends. I think I still have that card somewhere.

In replying to someone else, Japanese lacks a distinct name for Orange other than the loanword "Orenji". Instead, the color if it must be written in pure kanji is "Hono-Iro", literally "Flame Color". Which is also the phrase used to describe the color recognized as Scarlet. (Like how Lemon and Banana and Sunflower are all types of Yellow... Orange and Scarlet are both types of Fire-Color.)

3:56 Rumour has it that ‘the drunk guy’ blocking your path in Gen 1 was an inside joke for Masuda getting drunk and partying like crazy once they completed the game development (pre-launch). Prior to this, it was just a truck 🛻 blocking the way, and they moved the truck graphic to Vermillion City port. The same truck that fans thought Mew was hiding underneath via misleading rumour.

@jpcsdutra Ай бұрын

The colors thing gets even worse. People have found out that there were inner listings for a "Pokémon Pink" to be released alongside Yellow (possibly Clefairy or Jigglypuff as the only starter, tho speculative) And that the working titles for Ruby and Sapphire were Crimson and Indigo. If you want even more, though spectulative too: Pokémon SwSh is rather obvious too. "SwSh" makes us think of Switch, but as the boxart legendaries are usually related to the game title "Cyan and Magenta" were right there. Add to Gen 9 with "Past and Future" and schools named "Orange and Grape", I think it's fairly safe to assume working titles internally would have been "Orange and Purple" before it turned into Scarlet and Violet. The thing with Nidoking and Queen is kiiiinda... well. It's right but it's also wrong. Wigglytuff and Azumarill share the exact same inspiration. It's clear by stage 1 that Nidoran do have some rodent inspirations, but I wouldn't say rabbit.
