Exactly what I was missing after 15~20 questions (and then I left)

Seemed easy at first (got the first 5 right), but I guess that was mostly luck because I got a lot of the next ones wrong.

Edit: being from France, pokemon here have different names, making the english names less recognizable (I never played the games anyway so that doesn't change much for me)

French here too but playing Pokemon Go in English. After a while I can recognize most names but I still think the French names are funnier. The translation team did a real good job. Also, a lot a English names are straight coming from Japanese (e.g. Zubat) which make use of some English in the first place, so there is a bit less creativity on this side.
