The reference to the bodily fluid resulting from perspiration in the name of the beverage tends to have a certain offputting or humorous connotation for native English speakers. However, the name was chosen by the manufacturers originally for the purpose of marketing the product as a sports drink in Japan, where people generally do not mentally translate names appearing in English and are therefore not bothered by the connotation. It was largely derived from the notion of what it is intended to supply to the drinker: all of the nutrients and electrolytes lost when sweating. The first part of the name, Pocari, does not have any meaning. The word was coined for its light bright sound.

The distance from Leta's natural to Flash's main is ridiculously short, so Leta had an easy time attacking Flash's main. Leta then was able to keep a sizable portion of Flash's tanks at home while sniping quite a few of Flash's units that popped out and just in general denying Flash his main. | ||

He also had a really bad attack sometime in the midgame as well... I don't remember exactly where it was though. | ||
