Display boxes with the elemental monkey's names were sent out today. Boappu Pansear is  Hiyappu is Panpour and Yanapuu is Pansage
The {{bp|elemental monkeys}} may have English names. Grainy and blurred photographs of a display box have wound up on the internet. However, they are of low quality and the names are not yet considered official.  
 
If examined closely, it appears that the Grass-type {{p|Yanapuu}} has been localized as "Pansage", the Fire-type {{p|Baoppu}} will be known as "Pansear", and the Water-type {{p|Hiyappu}} will become "Panpour". The scans show clearly that {{bp|Team Plasma}} leader {{bp|N}} is to keep his Japanese name.
 
Bulbanews will update if these names can be confirmed true. Regardless, the names fit the trio nicely: the prefix "pan" relates not only to ''Chimpanzee'' and a genus of monkey, but also can be used to indicate members of a group.
 
Yanapuu, Baoppu, and Hiyappu debut in the fifth generation games {{game|Black and White|s}}, which is [[Possible Black and White American release date revealed|expected to have a late April release]].
