"Pokemon" pronunciation

[TeamRocketGrunt]

I do, actually. Maybe 'cause of my weeabooness.

[Ne0n-H!tch'd]

Arceus : Arse-ee-us (I guess I was not the only one.)

And I don't feel bad about calling...
Lopunny : Lap-un-ee (Because she is a sIut bunny, so she gives LAP dances to the likes of Machokes and Sawks)

[MagmaGruntTéa]

I say all the versions. Just for the heck of it.

[munchlaxboy]

I say POH-keh-mon. It's easiest to say and is smooth on the lips.

[Skyler 99]

On a related note, until a few years ago, I pronounced the technique Facade as "Fay-Kade." So foolish!

Don't feel bad... I said ****-aide. No joke

[TheEliteEmpoleon]

I say poh-kee-mon. The other pronounciations are too odd for me.

[Donesparce]

Pok-a-mon is what's most natural for me, pronouncing the hard E makes me cringe (even though it's probably more correct).

[AwesomeReshiram93]

I go for Pok-eeh-mon even though people around me say Poke-ey-mon. Its my standard way of saying it.

[trident20]

PokEmon gotta catch them all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ohh sorry

[PikaPika677]

Po-kee-mon most of the time. I use Po-kuh-mon too but not as much.

[PsychicPsycho]

I used to say Zapados, Electrabuzz, and Pelipepper. I also say Metagross so that it rhymes with floss. I also still occasionally refer to Articuno as Art-i-cue-no and Moltres as Mol-trez.

I still don't know how to pronounce Regigigas. But anyway.

I used to think the name was simply Regigas (regi-gas), until a friend happened to say the name. I've since seen it in the Giratina movie saying it's own name, Reg-ee-gee-gas (where gee rhymes with fee), so I don't have any problem now.

When I was younger, I couldn't say Zigzagoon.

Until I looked closely at the name, I thought it was Ziggazoon. I still say that accidently.

...Phanpy "Phanphy"

I still use Phan-fee, because Phan-pee makes me think of someone peeing on a fan.

Similarly, Sceptile is Skep-tile, since Sep-tile makes me think of a sceptic tank.

Ive always pronounce it like that too.

I thought Kyo-ger was the correct pronounciation (or Ky-oh-ger).

[StanTheStaraptor]

I go by what was said in the theme song. The whole "Pohhh-kaayy-mohn"

[Rigmarole]

I mostly say Po-kee-mon, but I also say Po-keh-mon and Pok-uh-mon.

[PokeWhiz]

Poke-uh-mon but I think that's just because I say it fast. Anyway, the other pronunciations are far too unusual I think.

[Profesco]

Alright, i've had enough. I've been watching the anime on Boomerang for a while now. And one thing really bugs me. The way they say "Pokemon". It's "'POH-kay-mon", apparently. It's grating on my ears to hear that, and it comes off of my tongue weird too. It sounds stunted and awkward. The way I say it is "POH-kee-mon". I've also heard "POH-kuh-mon" from the LPer chuggaaconroy, but that could be a result of saying it fast. Also, my friends say "POH-kay-mon". I hit them every time they say that :P Anyway, what pronounciation do you use and what don't you like?
This isn't an original topic, I know, but I want some opinions.

I hate to burst your Bubblebeam, but you're in the wrong. The "e" in Pokémon has an accent aigu over it - I just typed it right there in the word for your benefit. That tells you how the "e" is pronounced, and it tells you to pronounce it as "ay." Each time you hit your friends for doing something right, you're kind of being a pigheaded jerk. Of course, it's probably just friendly jesting, so I don't actually mean that seriously. But yeah, you're wrong.

[dirkac]

My little sister used to always say the weirdest poke-nunceations, like Kyogre=Kwai-or-kree-a. :P

[TeamGalacticMars]

I used to pernounce Mars's Purugly Pure-ugly! XD

[Silver Bolt]

I say po-keh-mon. I just can't pronounce it any other way.
Similar thing can be said about certain pokemon names. For example, I'll always pronounce Arceus as "ar-see-us" (the same kind of u as in "Luke"). Can't say it the other way.
I just can't pronounce some of the names the way they're "supposed" to be pronounced because it just doesn't sound right to me.

[Crimson Penguin]

Profesco's right, the correct pronunciation is Poh-kay-mohn - that's how the Japanese say it. But I usually just say Poh-kuh-mon, since it sounds more natural to me in English that way.

[32er]

Not sure how to pernounce Sigiliyph. :l
