Pikmin 3's "Scaly Custard" had quite a different name in Japan

As is tradition in Pikmin games, everyday items from our world are given completely different names, as the main characters in each game have never seen these items before. That includes batteries, coins, and in the case of Pikmin 3, an avocado.

Back in Pikmin 3 on the Wii U, the avocado is given the name 'Scaly Custard,' as it describes the skin and insides of an avocado. That localized name is extremely different from what Japanese audiences saw. In the Japanese version of the game, the avocado is called a 'Crocodile Scrotum!'

I think it's pretty safe to say that Pikmin 3 Deluxe is going to retain the 'Scaly Custard' name for it's localization!
