EEVILMURRAY Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 Now this isn't a topic about one pronounces the word Pokémon, contrary to one interpretation of the title. In actual fact it is how you pronounce certain Pokémon's names. For example, Suicune, until I saw Pokémon4Ever I said it with the Sui of Suicide, with a Koon on the end. However it's apparently said Swee-Koon. I've just been training my Lucario, now do I say it Luke-Ar-Ee-Oh, or Loose-Ar-Ee-Oh, or something completely different? Go.

Kurtle Squad Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 I say Sui (Suicide) Soon You have to remember, Americans pronounce many words awfully, sometimes in a way that makes no sence at all and breaks all laws of English. "Lou Sario" does make sence though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Bananagrabber Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 Seaking should be pronounced with a FUCK YEAH infront of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zell Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 I say Sui (Suicide) Soon You have to remember, Americans pronounce many words awfully, sometimes in a way that makes no sence at all and breaks all laws of English. That's how I always say it. I also pronounce Zapdos like you pronounce "MS-DOS", apparently it's something like zap-dös. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ipaul Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 I always used to pronounce it like Sui (sue) cune (quen?). Though that seems incorrect now.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurtle Squad Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 That's how I always say it. I also pronounce Zapdos like you pronounce "MS-DOS", apparently it's something like zap-dös. Well that is how it's supposed to be said. ArticUNO ZapDOS MolTRES The problem there was the American obsession with pronouncing Spanish O's like Oh. Carl-ohs Zap-dohs Lohs Illuminados (That one was especially retarded for a place with somewhere called Los Angeles (sp?)) Also...Is there ANY word where Sui is pronounces Swee??
