Hi, I hope this is ok to make a thread about something as specific as this, I would have posted it in the pokemon discussion thread but I am 'scared' to go in there since I have not got the game yet and I do not want to see any spoilers etc.
I can imagine the the data format each pokemon is stored in is different in this game, in gen 4 and 5, maybe 3 too, if you caught a pokemon from a E or U region game, and traded it to a J game, if the pokemon was bulbasaur, when it was time for it to evolve, the name would change to the japanese name of ivasaur.
if you look in pokesav/save editing programs, you will see there is a 'language' field in the pokemon editor, maybe i am confused, what exactly is this for?
but, what i am wondering is, since with the new games we can change the language of the game, if i am playing in spanish and then i change my language to french, will all the pokemon that i already have, with their spanish names, now be in french? or will they stay in spanish?
so when i catch a new pokemon, or evolve an old one, the name will now be in the new language?
i think this would be really easy to see, just change your language from english or whatever, to japanese, and see what happens.
and, not only the 'language', but i wonder if the region is saved, like, so even if you play on a korean cart, but in english, if your region inside the save, for the pokemon whatever, will be korean. when we can edit the save files all will be revealed i guess ha... anyway, thanks, i appreciate any/all information
