| Post subject: | Japanese Pokemon Names in Kanji? |
This is merely a suggestion for the main Psypoke site. I understand there are Japanese names for each Pokemon in the Pokedex, but do you have any plans to add the Japanese kanji after each Japanese name (e.g. "ピカチュウ" =  , "ニャース" =  /Nyaasu)? I understand that it may take a lot of research and someone fluent in Japanese (which I'm not--I don't know the difference between katagana and hiragana), so if you reject the suggestion, I don't mind.
Obviously Babelfish is unreliable. |

That'd be nice if we all had the language packet installed. But for those of us who don't, all the symbols come up as little squares, so... |

There's lots of katakana resources around that easily translate the Japanese names on our site, but no, we had no plans to since I know a few people don't have the correct language packs installed. I also don't see a really good reason as to why I should? If you can justify the need for the Japanese symbols I'll consider it

Oh, I didn't know that language packs were required. For some reason, I thought at least some European languages and Japanese are standard issue. But then again, there are some sites that have the squares in the title bar even though the rest of the site works correctly in Japanese kanji.

This could also be helpful for people playing the Japanese versions of the Pokemon games (in case you're wondering, I don't have any). Don't worry, I'm not forcing the change or anything, I just thought it's a nice addition to the Pokedex.
