SHUI HU SHEN SHOU (水浒神兽) DEX
2
#NUMBER - Chinese name (transliteration in pinyin/拼音, how it's translated in official Water Margin/水浒传 translations (along with removed/added words in parenthesis if necessary), "rough translation")
3-
All rough translations are translated using Google Translate, so the quality of the translations may range from "this makes absolute perfect sense" (invery rare cases), "the grammar is a little off, but I guess that I get the general point of this..." "OK, so they used the wrong word in this context" to "OH GOD WHAT IS THIS, IT DOESN'T EVEN SLIGHTLY MAKE SENSE!". However, the rough translations are only temporary placeholders, as no respectable translation of any kind would even use Google Translate'd text as the actual script (if it did, it would be on par with many 80s to mid-90s arcade/NES games from Japan (perhaps even worse than that), back when translation wasn't as big of an issue as it is now, and we all know how Engrish-y they are. Heck, it was the very reason why All Your Base Are Belong To Us from Zero Wing's European Sega Mega Drive "localization" even existed). So these translations need to be proofread/properly translated by anyone (with major bilingual knowledge of both Mandarin Chinese and English) reading this and willing to do so.

PINYIN: "Shénshòu zhī shǒu. Quánshēn fànzhe zǐ lán sè de shénmì diànguāng."
8
ROUGH TRANSLATION: "The first animal. Body glowing purple mysterious blue lightning."
9
#2 - 玉麒麟 (Yù qílín, Jade Quilin, "Jade Kirin"/"Jade Unicorn")
10
OD: 非常有靈性的神獸。頭上的角,就是玉麒麟的能量中心喲!
11
PI: "Fēicháng yǒu língxìng de shénshòu. Tóushàng de jiǎo, jiùshì yù qílín de néngliàng zhōngxīn yō!"
12
RT: "Very spiritual animal. Horns, Kirin is the energy center (yo)!" (doesn't sound right)  (NOTE: "yō"/"喲" is a "final particle", means nothing)
13
#3 -  吳用 (Wú yòng, Wu Yong, "Wu")
14
OD: 頭上的智慧之星,只要凝視就會有充滿智慧的感覺。
15
PI: "Tóushàng de zhìhuì zhī xīng, zhǐyào níngshì jiù huì yǒu chōngmǎn zhìhuì de gǎnjué."

RT: "For many years lived in the clouds. Most people are not easy to see."
21
#5 - 大刀 (Dàdāo, Great Blade, "Broadsword"/"Sword")
22
OD:  古代的邪刀~鬼鈴,在戰亂中飽食人血後,轉化而成的刀魂。
23
PI: "Gǔdài de xié dāo ~guǐ líng, zài zhànluàn zhōng bǎoshí rén xuè hòu, zhuǎnhuà ér chéng de dāo hún"
24
RT: "The ancient evil knife ~ ghost bell, after the war satiation in human blood, turned into a Soul Calibur." (NOTE: this translation's apparent anachronistic reference to the Namco fighting game Soul Calibur needs to be looked at to see if it's wrong. It is most likely wrong, but this is an unlicensed Taiwanese GBC game that derives from various sources (most notably Pokemon) we're talking about, plus it wouldn't be the first time Vast Fame has derived from a copyrighted fighting game they don't own any rights to (Vast Fame DID indeed develop and release a vs fighting game for the Game Boy Color called "格鬥劍神"/"Gédòu jiàn shén"/Soul Falchion in 2002, and although it has more to do with the fighters of SNK's The Last Blade and Samurai Shodown on a modified weapons-based version of the GB King of Fighters engine, its "official" English title definitely derives from Soul Calibur). Keep in mind that Soul Calibur was first released in Japanese arcades in 1998 (shortly predating Shui Hu Shen Shou's 2001 release, which in turn predated Soul Calibur II's 2002 release), Soul Calibur’s title can also be translated to "劍魂"/"jiàn hún" as well as "刀魂"/"dāo hún" (although of note that native Chinese people would say that monster #5 specifically resembles a dao/"刀" weapon, not a jian/"劍"), and "刀魂" can also literally mean "sword spirit". On an unrelated note, apparently "~"'s usage in this context is similar to the European colon/":" symbol rather than a prolonged vowel)
25
(without "~") "The ancient evil ghost knife bell in the war after the satiation of human blood, turned into a Soul Calibur."
26
#6 - 林沖 (Línchōng, Lin Chong, "Lin")
27
OD: 猛烈的拳擊力量,似乎連山都打得破的感覺……
28
PI: "Měngliè de quánjí lìliàng, sìhū liánshān dū dǎ dé pò dì gǎnjué……"
29
RT: "Boxing violent force, it seems Hill have played to break the feeling ......" (doesn't sound right)
30
#7 - 霹靂火 (Pīlì huǒ, Fiery Thunderbolt, "Thunderbolt")
31
OD: 出生三昧眞火裡的神獸,一生氣就會把敵人燃燒怠盡!
32
PI: Chūshēng sānmèi zhēn huǒ lǐ de shénshòu, yī shēngqì jiù huì bǎ dírén ránshāo dài jǐn! (note: 三昧真火/"Sanmeizhenhuo" is an old word from Taoism and apparently hard to literally translate, but roughly means "fire from wood, fire from stone, fire from sky". According to some translations of Journey to the West, or 西游记, it means "True Samādhi Fire", a power developed by the Red Boy character. It is possible that 三昧眞火 is a typo of 三昧真火 as a result of typing "zhen" and being converted to the wrong Chinese character, either that or a possible untranslatable pun)
33
RT: (with 三昧眞火 spelling) "Samadhi fire-Chen was born animal, an angry enemy will burn lazy to do!"
34

38
RT: "Often hiding in the haystack, and so on when the game comes, then whip the game tied up."
39
#9 - 小李廣 (Xiǎo lǐ guǎng, Little Li Guang, "Little Li") (NOTE: Li Guang was a famous Chinese general/archer during the Han Dynasty who lived until 119 BC. No relation to the Water Margin character Hua Rong (on which #9 is based on), as "Little Li Guang" is merely a nickname)
40
OD: 尾巴上的刺,連在一百步外媽蟻都能射中!
41
PI: "Wěibā shàng de cì, lián zài yībǎi bù wài mā yǐ dōu néng shè zhòng!"

54
RT: "Fire fine practitioners from the animal. That is actually a beautiful beard grow into flame."
55

62

64
OD: 絕技是利用頭上的角,在地上像是陀螺般的旋轉,砍傷敵人。

78
RT: "After the ancient name of the gun to absorb the essence of heaven and earth turned into a ghost gun." (NOTE: doesn't sound right, mainly the anachronistic references to guns in a game meant to take place in 12th century China. "鎗"/"qiāng" is most likely referring to the qiang spear weapon the monster is holding in its sprite, not any model of a modern shotgun)

95

102
RT: "Practice made ​​by Ray Ray fine stone has the power to manipulate lightning." (NOTE: doesn't sound right, especially part with "Ray Ray". Soulessu says it means "A thunder stone Train itself to become (little demon? And can control thunder)" (sic))
103
#25 - 插翅虎 (Chā chì hǔ, Winged Tiger)
104
OD: 背部的翅膀,讓牠看起來更百獸之王的威嚴。

RT: "Gentle personality, not aggressive. Can dive into the deep water areas."
111
#27 - 地太歲 (De tàisuì, Tai Sui Who Stands His Ground, "To Jupiter"/"Ground Jupiter"/"To Tai Sui"/"Ground Tai Sui") (NOTE: Originally 立地太歲/"Lìdì tàisuì" in the original Water Margin, but shortened to 地太歲 to make room for the technical three-character limit. Also, 太歲/"tàisuì"/Tai Sui is an old Chinese Taoist/Feng Shui term for stars directly opposite of Jupiter that influence the Chinese zodiac, hence the rough translations that contain the word "Jupiter")
112
OD: 由許多的怨凝結成的靈。傳說中被它的劍砍中將無法復原。

120
OD: N/A
121
PI: N/A
122
RT: N/A (NOTE: The strategy guide has no proper description for #29 printed where it should be. Either this is due to a printing/formatting error, or the original game did not have a(n accessible?) description to begin with. Either way, the original Shui Hu Shen Shou/水浒神兽 GBC ROM needs to be checked to see if a "dex entry" for #29 exists, and if so/not, if it wound up being technically "unused data" and whatnot)
123
#30 - 浪裡白 (Làng lǐ bái, White (Stripe) in the Waves, "Waves in white") (NOTE: Was originally 浪里白條/"Làng lǐ báitiáo" in the original Water Margin, but shortened and changed to 浪裡白 for technical reasons)

125

126
RT: "Shining on the water, if unusual white, then probably it appeared."
127

128
OD: 原本是地府的審判官。有著判決別人生死的權力。
129

130
RT: "Originally judge to the government. Has the power of life and death judgments of others."
131
#32 - 病關索 (Bìng guān suǒ, Sick Guan So) (NOTE: Guan So is a Chinese folk character passed down through many fictional tales. The Water Margin character Yang Xiong (on which #32 was based) was nicknamed "Sick Guan So" because he resembles the folk character, but with a lighter skin tone)
132
OD: 不動的時候,就會變得像陰影一樣。沒有人看過他的眞面目。

149
PI: Hěn kě'ài de cǎo xì shénshòu. Bèi tā de yǎnlèi pèng dào dehuà, huì chénchén de shuì qù ó.
150
RT: "Kusanagi very cute animal. Be met if it tears, it fell asleep, oh." (NOTE: "Kusanagi" is most likely wrong, as 草系/"cǎo xì" can be the Chinese equivalent of the Pokemon terminology "grass-type", since 草 = "grass" and 系 = "-type")
151
#37 - 神機 (Shén jī, Resourceful (Strategist), "God Machine") (NOTE: Was originally spelled out as 神機軍師/"Shén jī jūnshī" in the original Water Margin, shortened to 神機 for technical reasons)

154
RT: “Once upon a charge of formerly secret fairy, was removed because of leaking secret fairy post.” (NOTE: Check on this, because it doesn't sound right, especially the parts about "secret fairy")

#39 - 病尉遲 (Bìng yùchí, Sick Yuchi, "Disease Yuchi") (NOTE: "Yuchi" is for Yuchi Jingde, who was a general of the Tang Dynasty and incorporated into folk religion of China as a "door god".

162
RT: "Caused the death of the Ancient Warrior, looking for Sushi enemies and everywhere." (NOTE: "Sushi" is most likely wrong in this context despite the pronounciation, given that the setting is 12th century China, not Japan. 宿世/sùshì most likely means "past life" instead, please check)
163
#40 - 醜郡馬 (Chǒu jùn mǎ, Ugly Prince Consort)
164
OD: 記憶力不怎麼靈光,常常會忘記自己要做什麼……

170
RT: "Body as soft as cotton, it will be very warm winter holding yo!"  (NOTE: As with creature #2, "yō"/"喲" is a "final particle", means nothing)
171

172
OD: 在戰場上。如果有牠的幫助,就一定會打勝仗。

174
RT: "On the battlefield. If it helps, they will win the war." (NOTE: Or "win battles", or "be victorious". The description sounds an awful lot like Victini's, even though Shui Hu Shen Shou was released 9 years prior to Pokemon Black/White)
175
#43 - 天目將 (Tiānmù jiāng, General of Heavenly Vision, Tianmu/Third eye/Celestial eye will/would)
176

RT: "Just look in its eyes, there was a reminder of the dangers ......" (NOTE: as far as monster #43's sprite shows, it only has a single eye. The Chinese language has a lack of significant "grammatical numbers" like English does, relying on "numerical classifiers" instead, and real-life creatures are expected to have multiple eyes (generally two). So, a more accurate translation would be to replace "eyes" with "eye", no plural)

#84 - 病大虫 (Bìng dà chóng, Sick Tiger, "Disease Beast") (NOTE: Even though the proper translation for the nickname is "Sick Tiger", monster #84's sprite is that of a bug resembling a cross between the Pokemon Caterpie, Weedle, and Butterfree, not anything that looks remotely feline. This is presumably because 病大虫 can also literally be interpreted to mean "Disease Big Insect" when separating the three hanzi, creating a pun that cannot be as easily understood in English, since 大虫/"dà chóng" means "beast"/"tiger", while 大 means "big" and 虫 means "insect". Also of note that for some reason, the game decides to use the Simplified Chinese version of 病大蟲 even though most of the rest of the game is in Traditional. This is presumably to save space on the ROM, as Chinese is already a space-demanding writing system to begin with, possibly even moreso than Japanese. Of note that Shui Hu Shen Shou already uses 2,904 total 16x16 characters for use by the text printing engine (the original Japanese version of The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past, the first game in the Zelda series to make use of Japanese kanji outside of its title screen, only uses approximately less than 10% of that amount of characters by comparison, and that's counting the Latin characters and Hylian symbols). This includes hanzi, punctuation, arrows for signs directing where to go, and the Arabic numerals 0, 1, 5, and 8 (108 is a prominent number both the game and the original Water Margin due to the "108 Stars of Destiny"))

#103 - 母夜叉 (Mǔ yèchā, Female Yaksha, "Dominatrix/Hag/Bitch(es)") (NOTE: A yaksha is a nature spirit who is benevolent caretaker of the natural treasures within the earth and tree roots. Although according to Nciku, 母夜叉 can also be a derogatory slang word for "an ugly and fierce woman" (a possible English equivalent is "hag", "witch", "shrew"), most likely derived from the original Water Margin, as Sun Erniang (on which monster #109 is based on) used heavy cosmetics. The double meaning could explain why monster #103 looks like an "expy" of the Pokemon Jynx, complete with the all-too-controversial blackface-like look (Keep in mind that by the time Shui Hu Shen Shou was released, Pokemon Gold/Silver/Crystal were already out at that point (where Jynx's skin color was changed to purple only on non-Japanese versions), and Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire wouldn't be released in Japan for another year (where Jynx's skin color was changed to purple for all releases, even the Japanese version))

Other side notes in general: The original game used 3 maximum 16x16 characters for names, so once the font gets converted to a Latin 8x8 font, that will up the character limit to 12. Admittedly, that is a little bit more leeway than what non-Japanese Pokemon names allowed prior to Pokemon Diamond/Pearl, so having a 12-character limit brings it on par with Pokemon Black/White (and their respective sequels) and X/Y/Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire's naming limit. However, even 12 characters are not enough to convey the literal intent of the nicknames. So, sadly for Water Margin purists, the translation will have to "localize" the names to put it more in line with the sometimes punny English naming conventions of Pokemon. Expanding the character limit would be tough to pull off while still making the game look good (heck, as noted many times, even the original Water Margin nicknames from the original Chinese version of the game had to be changed and/or shortened to omit one character, sometimes even two), so even if we added 4 extra 8x8 characters to the limit (making it 18 total characters), it still wouldn't be enough to convey the very long nicknames' literal intent. If done right, the names would be considered a "Woolseyism" and actually a better choice than the original. However, we shouldn't stray too much from the original script (see: Tomato/Clyde Mandelin's complaints about J2E's fan translation of Final Fantasy IV (then known as Final Fantasy II in North America), http://legendsoflocalization.com/reader-feedback-ffivs-fan-translation/ and http://legendsoflocalization.com/final-fantasy-iv/baron/). Besides, it's not like Suikoden (another RPG loosely based on Water Margin, but this time for the PS1 and Saturn, developed by the Japanese company Konami, and officially licensed by their respective consoles' manufacturers) and its many sequels kept the names even in the original Japanese versions anyway. On the topic of name translation, only the monsters with actual Chinese names rather than nicknames will keep their names in English for story reasons (you'll see why once you actually play the game). Their names should be short enough to fit the 12 character limit.
