Porygon-Zed or Porygon-Zee?

[Haunter90]

I am from England and i call it Porygon-zee, because Porygon-zed just sounds dumb

 

[Ichida]

It's zee. That's how the PBR announcer says it, and in a subtle way, zee sounds more technological than zed.

 

[Chibbichan]

what does ash say in the american pokemon cartoons?
Does ash say Porygon-zee or porygon-zed?

 

[Gunn]

I don't think Porygon-Z has yet been introduced into the anime. But it's likely that he will pronounce as "zee," since y'know ... "american pokemon cartoons." You answered your question yourself there ...

 

[Hideki~kun]

I'm british, but I say Zee because I think of it kinda like DBZ.

 

[Alter Ego]

Yeah, zee for me. Like the others have pointed out: 'zed' doesn't roll of the tongue as easily. :O

 

[Gysztaf]

It's Porygon Zee...I say zee 'cause I watch TV shows from the United States of America:)

 

[Alakazam17]

I doubt Porygon-Z will be in the anime, following suit with Porygon2. Ever since the Electric Soldier Porygon episode, the line hasn't been seen since. Ironically, the moment that caused the many hospital visits was Thunderbolt from Pikachu. So, Porygon and his evolutions never get in the anime again, while Pikachu gets every episode ever made.

ZEE I don't understand how Zed came about.

 

[Kotowari]

I haven't really thought about it. But since in my language (Dutch) we pronounce 'Z' as 'Zet', I think I'll pronounce it as 'zed'. But I doubt I will ever get a Porygon Z. x3

Porygon in anime=Automatic seziures for everyone, even though lights don't flash that fast anymore.

 

[Shinji_]

I say it as zee. I have never come across people that have sad Zed, and believe me I have alot of friends that play/watch pokemon..

 

[Rageman]

I never really thought about it until I was talking with a friend from the United States, heh. It's probably the only Pokemon that Americans will pronounce differently then Brits and Canucks.

So, how do you pronounce it? ^_^

HAY~
JUST BECAUSE I'M CANADIAN DOES NOT MAKE ME A CANUCK FAN.

Pore-ee-gahwn-zed

 

[PokemonRox]

i say porogon ZEE and I'm from the US i think its sounds right.. i've never heard anyone call it porygon zed anyways..

~PokemonRox

 

[Jorah]

I've never thought of it being calling Porygon-Zee, I just say Porygon-Zed. I don't really like zee although that's the way it'll be pronounced because the anime is dubbed in America...

But you're from B.C.! =P

Though neither am I. GO SENS GO!!!

 

[vizforte]

But then again.

I would pronounce it Zee, but I thought myself to name him Zed when I get one. I like Porygon, he was useless as normal Porygon, was about the lvl of an Ursaring as Porygon2, So hopefully this new Porygon Zed/Zee, is in the legendary range. Not like Mew or Darkrai, But Salamence, or what have you. One of the end page pokemon. (Endpage, ie being just before the legendary pokemon in that game versions pokedex, which generally means they are higher end, sometimes stronger. IE Bagon, Salamence, Metagross, Kabuto Dragonite.)

 

[wolfie1177]

i pronounced it ZEE right away, but then again i live in the u.s.

although porygon-zed definitely does not roll off the tongue at all, so i'm glad to be a zee-er

 

[diamondpearl876]

I pronounce it with "zee". o_O Zed sounds weird.

 

[Shiny Umbreon]

I don't know because I've never said it in English. I just say "Porygon Zeta". But by reaction I would call it Porygon-Zed
