Did you know that in Latin, "maris" means "of the sea"?

'Tis so pretty. That's why I picked the name.

El Mar is the sea in spanish... and I think french is la mer... so the english word "sea" is... really random. xD

Yea now you can see where spanish gets the word for sea from.

how is the english word sea random? just cause "sea" doesn't look like "mare" or "el mar"?

Oh, well that's good I think. I guess I don't need to find a lawyer that speaks Dragonair...
Dude, can one guy MAKE that many pokemon?

Maris. Too kewl for skewl. xDDD

Maybe he's a ninja. Or maybe he has an elite team of ninjaz at his "beck and call". (weird phrase, methinks.)

YYou totally should start working for the pokemonz ppl. You would pwn at it, and could make the story as good as it was in the good old days!!! -dies at the very idea- it'd be sooo perfect.

That looks like neck and call. which really makes no sense.
What is a beck anyway?

Dude I used to dream about joining the pokeman squad. Seriously.
Yes and I could educate all of those poor youngins that don't know the meaning of pokemon. Vintage all the way.

w00t!
Everyone liked Pokemon when they were young, there's no hiding it... And they all know that it's still awesome.

Ya know, it really does look like a Pokemon... But I suppose there are so many Pokemon anyway that it was bound to look like one of them. xD
