    i want to know how everyone used to pronounce pokemon names before they heard the names being said in the anime or learnt better grammer skills

    the main pokemon that i can remember was Kyogre, i use to say it :

    Ky-oh-gree
     
    The one I use to pronounce funny was Milotic.
    Meh-Low-Tic..
    xD

    Hairy Mama anyone?
     
    ... XD! Hairy Mama. That is most excellent (and lulzy)!
     
    Used to say Arceus Arse-see-us. XD
     
    I used to call lots of pokemons names wrong until i saw them on the anime cant remember any names except maybe Metapod when i was like 7 i thought it was Metapond.
     
    I also used to say metapond not metapod also charizard used to be char-zard missing out the 'i'
     
    Suicune

    Sye-coon

    Mostly because of Pokemon Stadium 2, haha. I still usually pronounce it like that because I like that pronunciation better. :P

    HAHAHA. That's amazing!

    Even though I know Rayquaza isn't supposed to be "Ray-Quah-Zah" and Arceus isn't supposed to be "Ar-see-us," I still pronounce them that way. I think they sound better than the actual names. And I've been pronouncing Rayquaza that way since I was about 8. I can't get rid of the habit now! Also, "Ar-kee-us" sounds weird.

    I also didn't know how to say Gorebyss for a while. I also called Illumise something like, "Ill-um-myz." Poor thing.

    Oh, and for whatever reason, I thought that Darkrai was spelt something more like "Drakai," so I pronounced it like that (the "dra" sounding like the beginning of "dragon.")

    I always have called it Loo-gee-ah because whenever I hear Loo-gey-ah I think of someone hacking and spitting.

    Does anyone actually call *image removed* by its correct name? I still call it Eggs-a-cute.

    Also, Kirbychu, LOL at Raykwanzaa!

    I've pronounced Rayquaza's name wrong just like all the other users who posted something before me. Same thing with Arceus. I don't like how it''s pronounced. It sounds very strange.
     
    I will always pronounce Arceus with a soft C. Ar - Key - Us sounds stoopit!
