Research direction

The issue asks whether the wrapper recognizes Pokémon names in languages other than English, but it names no file, test, or entry point. First determine the wrapper's current name-handling scope; done would require a clear answer or a separately defined implementation plan.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

As stated in the title. Is it even possible, as I understand this projekt is a 'wrapper' for the pokedex API.
Thank you and kind regards!
