That's not even all of them. He left out Wretched Ghost in the Attic and the Winged Kuriboh evolutions.

Blaze Dragon posted:I will never understand what possessed Konami's translators to rename Kuriball, a perfectly acceptable pun that doesn't gently caress up card text, into the much lamer Sphere Kuriboh. Long story short, they had to keep 'Kuriboh' in it's name so that it would work with Kuribohrn. The Japanese archetype name is 'クリボー / Kuribō', and Sphere Kuriboh's name is 'クリボール / Kuribōru'. If they had localized it as Kuriball, then it wouldn't have worked with Kuribohrn and any other Kuriboh archetype support. Kuribandit, Kurivolt, and Kuriphoton, for the record, are Kuriboh-related monsters, but they're not actually members of the archetype.

Blaze Dragon posted:But you could also write it as Kuribohll and you keep the exact same pun, that logic doesn't work.  Knowing Kevin Tewart, I honestly doubt that localizing it as Kuribohll ever crossed his mind. Sphere Kuriboh works fine though, since it's meant to be a reference to Ra - Sphere Mode anyway.

Chimera-gui posted:To be fair, the former doesn't have "Kuri" in its name while the latter two are technically related to Winged Kuriboh than the normal one. Wretched Ghost is that cousin that no one likes and tries not to invite to family get-togethers, but somehow finds out about it and shows up uninvited anyway.

Chimera-gui posted:Getting back to Téa though, the fact that she rarely dueled in a universe where your worth is based on your dueling abilities didn't help her popularity. In the original series, no one but Yugi, Kaiba, and Joey got to duel much. The side characters wouldn't really get to start dueling a lot until GX.
