Pronunciations of Pokemon names
Some Pokemon names have been pronounced wrong for a long time, partly due to the anime pronouncing them incorrectly. Recently, GameFreak have officially come out and explained how one such name is properly pronounced. “Arceus”
As if Silvally’s ability name didn’t literally spell it out years ago (RKS system) the name is pronounced “Are-kee-us”
Rest in peace “Are-see-iss” gang
But there are far more names that are even more controvercial.
For example: Growlithe
We’ve been pronouncing it “Growl-ith” because of the anime, but its actually pronounced “Growl-eye-th” as its a combination of the words Growl and Lithe.
My personal favorite one to point out is
Blastoise!
Because of the anime, everyone has been pronouncing this name as “Blast-ois” however, because his name is a combination of Blast and Tortoise, the name is actually pronounced “Blast-iss”
Because this is not a “tore-toys”
What a beautiful Pokemon world. Which one is your favorite?
