I don't like the way the anime pronounced the pokemon's names. This is what I call them...

Skarmory- skah-MORE-ee
Xatu- ZAH-too
Milotic- mill-OT-ic
Sceptile- SKEP-tile
Registeel- REJEE-steel
Regirock- REJEE-rock
Regice- REJ-ice
Rayquaza- ray-KWAZ-uh

Anyone else like this...?

I dunno. I thought I'd bump this thread. I mean, it might get some attention, y'know?

Anyways, how do you pronounce:

Arceus
Phione
Buizel
Lairon

etc.

...um...good idea?

How do you pronounce...

Kyogre (is it KY-o-gre or KEE-o-gre?)
Glalie (I've heard people pronounce it gla-LIE)
I'm pretty sure it's:

KY (a long "I" sound") and ogre.

and

Glay-LEE

OK thanks.

Btw, what do you mean "View the whole signature"? There's nothing else but the Mudkip pic.

...or maybe that's what you meant...? :confused:
Go to my profile to see my whole sig.

Hey, isn't Buizel pronounced "Bwee-zil"?

Yes; yes I do, infact, liek Mudkipz. How'd you know?

I think buizel is meant to be pronounced 'buoy-zil,' as in buoy and weasel.

What dictates the way we pronounce them, anyhow? The anime?

Your welcome. (...y'know... For bumping your thread and all...)

How do I know? It's simple. Everyone leiks Mudkipz!

Well, I heard Buizel from the anime, but as wii all know the anime doesn't always pronounce names the right way. I, too, thought it was Buoy-zel.

A wizard has turned you into a Mudkip.

Heh, I've been on this site too long. *Looks at join date*

Any other 'incorrect' pronunciations?

Azelf- AYS-elf (it's supposed to be 'US-elf,' right?
Likilicky- lick-uh-liky (Heh, New England accent.)
Zigzagoon- Zig-zuh-goon
Bidoof- bid-OOF

@W4M: Hell's yeah!!

AWRIGHT!

You're now the second person to answer yes to that question, behind Terywj. Check my sig.

I'm pretty sure it's AYS-elf.

For buizel, actually, if you break its name apart it becomes buoy-zel, which makes sense when you consider its evolution is float-zel.
