Em 2011, fontes anônimas divulgaram na Internet a localização brasileira "semi-oficial" de Pokémon, denominada "Bolsodex". O que para alguns foi uma notícia positiva, para outros se tornou motivo de decepção: muitos nomes pareciam fora de lugar, e a ausência de justificativas também trazia um desconforto. Em geral, as pessoas achavam que poderiam fazer melhor.
Nessa página, você e seus amigos podem fazer a sua própria Bolsodex! Pra isso, reunimos informações da Bulbapedia sobre a origem dos nomes de cada Pokémon, e incluímos também os nomes em outros idiomas. Preencha o nome de cada um e clique em "Salvar" pra baixar o arquivo .txt resultante.
Se juntem aí no Discord, botem uma música pra tocar, e briguem pra decidir como caralhos se traduz Gyarados!
Gostou? Quer ver as outras gerações? Quer compartilhar seu resultado com o mundo? Manda um e-mail pra mim com a bolsodex de vocês + nome da equipe que eu ponho no nosso mural!
