Oh, I wasn't literal with Pikachu being the only one, more of a general consensus that Pokémon names rarely match the Japanese ones. Like you said, it's for the better. That one is very amusing, it's in the same generation, did no-one think to ask if it was too similar? -
I finally got an answer for something I was always unsure about in Dragon Quest I. -
Pokemon is a good example of where the localised names are better than the Japanese ones. The Japanese name are a bit too literal sometimes. Kakuna is just Cocoon, for example. There's a lot of Pokemon that kept their Japanese names, Raichu, Porygon, Mew, Mewtwo, Celebi, Rotom, Lucario. Unless I've misunderstood what you meant here. Jolteon is called Thunders which is pretty confusing sometimes.

No, I'm from the UK. I'm not sure why mine added it later
