A little Note to John here: "Wuffels" is Rockruff's official Name in German It comes from "Wuff",which means "Ruff" in German and "Fels",which is "Rock" in German. So its basically just "Ruffrock"

By the way, 'doudou' in french is a type of plushie usually associated with small kids, and "doux" alone also means soft, so jigglypuff's french name, rondoudou, basically just means round soft plushie, which I always thought was adorable !

Probably correct that SP-EU stands for Spanish-Europe. The ESP (Español) of older games was replaced by ES-EP (Español-España), probably hinting at a future Latinamerican Spanish. While all the Latinamerican countries that speak Spanish have diferent variations in its Spanish, it is common to have a neutral dub/translation for Latinamerican, and a more specific Spain's Spanish for Spain.

2:00 CHT is Chinese Traditional which is the script used in Taiwan, as opposed to the CHS or Chinese Simplified of mainland China. 10:40 SP-EU does refer to European Spanish which has minor differences from the different dialects of Spanish in LatAm (but I’ve not seen any other variation of Spanish covered in Pokémon)

[@Greymetaphor]

CHT is also used in Hong Kong and Macau, among others. CHS is more common in China and some areas of Southeast Asia (like where I'm from, Singapore). There are other differences aside from the look of the letters too, like the keyboard, as well as some pokemon names. Mimikyu, for example, is called 謎擬Ｑ in CHT, but 谜拟丘 in CHS!

[@TunaBear64]

Ha! Minor differences? Latin America would beg to differ.

And Pichu isn't a pika clone since it's part of the original Pikachu line. But eh

[@mitchc.2660]

@Arisu Hayo that I would argue against. It is the unique electric mouse created for gen 2. It's only in the pika line to showcase the new breeding mechanics, I do think that it counts as a pika-clone.

[@gengarzilla1685]

It's much more a Pikaclone than Marill, honestly. People are still so attached to "Pikablu" that they're trying to convince themselves it has any intended link to Pikachu and friends.

In surprise trade bingo, it also it's better imo to do it twice simply because there are so many categories that you can make one more general and one more specific for the second round to be more tense again. Cuz judging by the comments, STB is a very popular category in the JMC.
