This might be a controversial thing to suggest, but I think we should be using the full game names as the main tag names for mainline Pokemon games (and their respective anime/prototype tags) instead of the shortened versions. With other copyrights, using shortened name as the main tag name is something that's only done as an exception in case the full name of the series would be really long, and this is not really the case with Pokemon games.
Try searching for Pokemon SWSH in Google for instance and you'll see that it appears as "Pokemon Sword and Shield" in just about every search result, same goes for other Pokemon games. I understand that it's often referred to as Pokemon SWSH by fans in discussions and such, but this is what we have utility aliases for, which are still going to redirect people to the right tag when they type pokemon_swsh, and to an outsider it might not be immediately clear what these shortened names refer to, which doesn't seem ideal for a copyright tag name that is being displayed in wikis, on the posts in tag lists, and so on. Even among Pokemon copyright tags, Pokemon mainline game and their related tags are the outliers in using shortened names instead of the full ones (aside from Pokemon TCG technically, but it should be well known what TCG stands for since it's far from being exclusive to Pokemon).
