@Cottonmouth255: There's plenty of pokémon names worse than Magmacabra, yes. Problem is, Berserk Tetsu is a MH monster, and their names have quite a few difference compared to Pokémon names. While you can just  combine two words and get a pokémon name, monster names are chosen carefully by mixing different words in different languages to reflect the monster's nature (although sometimes Capcom fucks up terribly). I don't think the name Magmacabra meets MH standards, and is also goofy and uninspired (which is why I compared it to a pokémon name, while some can be decent, others make me want kill myself). Also, I don't think those "new possibilities" are new at all. Frontier has been using new names for subspecies for quite a while now. Finally, while I agree on that Kecha should have gotten a new name, Capcom mentioned in the blog that they loved its japanese name, and you can't really do anything about that. The lack of originality was pretty much inevitable, lol.
