The English names of the four Pokémon and the new NPCs [[Four new Pokémon revealed in July CoroCoro|shown in CoroCoro]] have been revealed.


In English, Shishiko is called {{p|Litleo}}. Litleo has a red mane that burns hotter when battling strong opponents. It can learn the new {{type|Normal}} move Noble Roar (known as War Cry in Japanese), which lowers the target's Attack.

In English, Furabebe is known as {{p|Flabébé}}. When a Flabébé is born, it chooses a flower which it lives on and takes care of for the rest of its life. Wild Flabébé will hold different colors of flower. Flabébé can draw power from its flower to use in battle.

While it was known that Spewpa was the English name of either Kofūrai or Kofukimushi due to the Spanish and Italian versions of Pokémon.com, it has been revealed that Kofūrai is known as {{p|Spewpa}} in English, while Kofukimushi is known as {{p|Scatterbug}}. Scatterbug can learn {{m|String Shot}}, while Spewpa can learn {{m|Protect}}. Spewpa can protect itself from weak attacks with its thick fur.


The player's hometown, Asame Town, is known as {{bp|Vaniville Town}} in English. From here, the player and their four friends set off on their journey, starting with Santalune Forest.

Sana is known as {{ga|Shauna}} in English. She is friendly, outgoing and energetic, and is looking to find her own dream. She is very interested in everything the player finds on his or her journey. She forces the player to pick a nickname early in the game.

Tieruno is known as {{bp|Tierno}} in English. He is strong and kind, but easily distracted during battle because he tries to incorporate dance moves. He is a dancer who is light on his feet, and wants to create a dance team with his Pokémon.

Toroba is known as {{bp|Trevor}} in English. He is a good and curious student, but he is very competitive and wants to be the first of the group to complete the {{bp|Pokédex}}.

Serena or Calem (the opposite gendered player character) lives next door to the player in Vaniville Town. He or she sets off on a journey to become a powerful Pokémon Trainer.


Hakudan City is known as {{bp|Santalune City}} in English, and is known for its large fountain and park benches. It contains the first Gym, led by {{bp|Viola}} (whose name is the same as in Japanese). The Santalune City Gym's interior is made from spiderweb-like threads over a dark pit; they serve as the Gym's puzzle. Viola is a professional photographer, and will give the player advice when they battle.

Pansy is known as {{bp|Alexa}} in English, and is Viola's older sister. She works as a journalist for a publishing house in {{bp|Lumiose City}}.
