Amusingly enough, 'Audino' would make a perfect answer for this too.

It totally knows the answer to Ash's question.

This is a good time to use "Audino?"

What, a double-language pun?

Perhaps "Maybi" or "Mayabee" would've been a better name for Audino?

Sure it could. Instead of saying it doesn't know, it already knows he won't make it so it refuses to say.

At any rate, Audino to "I dunno" is more of a leap than Tabunne which literally means "maybe". It's my opinion that localizing things is fine but one should translate word puns very conservatively.

The joke doesn't work with the English name.

Maybe = Chance of success.
I dunno = No answer, positive or negative

But this is japanese and Tabunne mean "May be". So the translation is correct

Considering Tabunne's english name (Audino) which is meant to be a pun too (Audino = I dunno), does that mean it should be translated to 'I dunno' instead of 'Maybe'?
