hey friend, that google ngram thing is faked, the OP admitted to it & it can be looked up on google ngram viewer... neat information about cornish, but unfortunately not the explanation for a recurrence of "pokemon" bc that didn't exist in the first place.

What a weird coincidence that they picked the decade when a book was published with the word in it, then!
Thanks for letting us know. I’ll go back and edit the post now, but I’m leaving it up because it’s a pretty weird double coincidence.
