I understand this may be a futile attempt to overturn a longstanding convention, but what is the insistence on using Japanese names in the news articles? This is an English language wiki, and, if not most contributors, certainly most readers are more familiar with the English names. I understand that this news is coming out of Japan, and the episode will air in Japan long before it does in America, but, using myself as the yard stick for the average Bulbapedia reader, I would rather see "Ash's Infernape" than "Satoshi's Goukazaru."
