In Pokemon, the Global Trade Station in the game doesn't let you trade your pokemon if they contain swear words. It's fine if the nickname of your pokemon has a swear word in it, but what happens if the species of the pokemon has a name with an expletive in it, and you didn't nickname it? Yes, Cofagrigus has been fixed, but what about Pineco, Ho-Oh, Weedle, Marshtomp, Skuntank, Nosepass and Probopass? This only makes the kids playing the games confused and forces them to learn these words. Any thoughts on this?
 
Besides Nosepass and Probopass, I don't see anything wrong with the other Pokemon's names.
It's not really a problem for me since I never use the Global Trade Station. Very few people there know a good trade. Tepig for a Level 100 Lugia? Heck no. What also pisses me off at the GTS are those people who put up a Pokemon to show it off or store it by giving an impossible trade. >:(
 
I once made a rant about the GTS.

Let me go dig for it.

All the Pokemon's names contain swear words (by Nintendo and Game Freak's standards). For example, *bleep*[/b]rigus.

EDIT: See? Even this board won't let me talk about this Pokemon, which I will now refer to as the evolution of Yamask.
 
I had to look for the word in the first one. I found it, I can't believe it took me so long to find the word. Also, swear censor option is in profile settings and stuff.

Oh... Now I see. But there not that noticable.
 
You left out the d in Weedle and the e in Pineco, but you got the rest right. Nosepass, Probopass and Froslass should be easy to find.
 
I'm having trouble with those 3, I can't seem to find them. I had trouble with those other ones too, I can hardly notice them.
