These recent Sinnoh uploads on the Pokémon TV YouTube channel have some truly bizarre sub-titles, especially on proper nouns. In the past two episodes (Dawn's Early Night!) Dawn is Don, Piplup is Pipop, Wobbuffet is Wow Bathe, Cacnea is Kacneia or Cacia, Mime Jr. was "Fine, Junior". Sandshrew was "Sandrew" and Turtwig turned into… well… "turn" or "Tig" and worst of all, "church wing". Twerps is consistently mis-subtitled like "torps" or even "point". "Pika Pika" turned into "bigger". Mira was consistently sub-titled to "Mera".
