Parody titles in America only?

Hey, ever since I moved to California from Japan you know how originally in Japan all the Pokemon episodes have titles like "Kettou! Pokemon hinamtsuri!" (Battle! Pokemon Girls's day)", where they explain out the title and hint out stuff which is about to happen? Well I was just wondering why in North America do you make fun with the episode titles where you make fun of something or parody it! You have titles which ryme as puns such as "Turning Over A New Bayleef" and "Got Miltank? Do you have titles that describe the episodes properly in North America like we do in Japan or do you only have pardoy titles?

Lol thats a good point now when I look at it. I kinda checked the episode listings and there does seem to be quite alot of the Parody Titles you do speak of. But there are also quite a few straight forward ones that are self explantory I think. "Ash Catches A Pokemon", "Pokemon Emergency", "Bulbasaur and the Hidden Village", "Challenge Of The Samurai". The episode "Charmander The Stray Pokemon" is as simple and plain as it gets in describing an episode without parody or even a summary. ^^

Ah yesh those sounded close to the original, guess you did have some normal titles before they turned out more parody like.
