Pokemon western names
Posted on: 01/27/21 03:47AM

I was wondering why the tags for pokemon characters now have their western names replacing their original Japanese ones?

Because a huge amount of tags are imported via the Danbooru bot and their tag standards cascade down. That and nobody calls them by their Japanese names to begin with.

So, all these years the site forced us to tag them with the Japanese names and it's like "fuck it, we don't care anymore"
