Sure, things get lost in translation. But are those things always important? And is it always a matter of ethnocentrism? No, I don't think so, not always.
Consider the target audience of Pokémon. Could children that age be expected to know what onigiri is, or to easily find out? I'd say no. 'Donut' is definitely ... not what I'd gone for, to be quite diplomatic; the only excuse for it that I can see is that it probably fit mouth movements pretty well (o + something else, could take about as long to say given how Japanese dialog tends to be reallyreallyfast). But you need to call it something, and I'm damned if I can think of a good alternative.
