  • 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? ^_^

    You forgot Australians D:<

    I pronounce Zee, solely because Zee sounds better than Zed in terms of Porygon. Otherwise, I say 'Zed'.

  • ...hm. I don't know if I've ever pronounced it aloud before. I think I have to agree with Angelix though--"zee" does sound better. It rolls off the tongue after "Porygon" a lot better than "zed."

    I take pride in pronouncing it "zed" at all times, though, so I'm torn. :(

    Even though I'm Australian, I'd say zee, since it's intended to be pronounced that way.

    Zed sounds so old - zee has that modern feel to it.
