[Music] hey guys to green 7 here and in this video I'm going to simply run through all the pokemons that are commonly mispronounced and tell you why you're dumb for mispronouncing them I'm just kidding loosen up be as chill as 10 carrot Hill is what I always say anyways I have no problem with people mispronouncing any English Pokemon names especially if you're a child or have some kind of reading disability but if you're an adult who claims to be a huge Pokemon fan there are a lot of Pokemon that you should at least know the pronunciations for because for the most part they make complete sense and follow the origin of the name it's fine to mispronounce them but when you incorrectly correct someone else it looks pretty stupid it's just good to know some of these pronunciations because they indicate your knowledge of what the Pokemon are named after and I just really like learning the name origins of Pokemon so please don't take it the wrong way if you mispronounce some or all of these Pokemon names but understand that once generation 5 came out Pokemon did release the official Pokemon pronunciations they can all be found in the pokedex 3d app the anime also started to follow the correct pronunciation with Pokemon that they even was pronounced in the past but even if you for some reason don't agree with this source a lot of these names have clear pronunciations and people just seem to not know how English works like when people mispronounce sceptile as sceptile or when they add random letters for no reason like saying milk tank when no tank has only one K and it's at the end you'll definitely learn some cool facts today just keep in mind that I'm going to sound a little passive-aggressive in this video but I'm not mad at all just passionate unless you pronounce sceptile sceptile I'm mad at you if you do that for each entry I will say the correct pronunciation first and then describe the mispronunciations that I've heard now let's start with PG on now I've heard people say fidgets and I totally understand the mindset behind it since it sounds like pidgin so I'll give a pass to anybody who pronounces it that way but now that you know the official pronunciation don't do it again it's Pidgeot eken I heard he can before it sounds weird right ooh it's not riot to the first part of its name comes from the Japanese word for thunder which is ride not Ryan victreebel it plan on victory and tree so it's victory down not victory down I mean you'd understand that if you just read the name Rattata I'm also fine with hearing Ratatat since that's kind of what I think so throughout the video I won't be mentioning any Pokemon mispronunciation in which you just stress the wrong syllable because that's just not really a mispronunciation but there's no excuse to pronounce the Rakata as rat attacked or rat attack you can't just add letters that's not how language works you just sound like you never actually played Pokemon for rent not fair we don't call Pidgey pigeons so call fir it's very bloody on apparently it's ledian not ledian ariados it's named after Ariadne so it's not pronounced Aria nose chin Chow not chin Chu or chin Chow and fog while Ampharos would be closer to its name origin and pier and Pharaohs it doesn't sound like an apparent Bell awesome there's a bell in there it's not just blossom that would be a terrible name oh wait mister even if you clearly read its name you would understand that it's not mystery Deus sometimes simply reading the name help unknown I've got many people trying to tell me that it's unknown if you're one of those people stop it's unknown just imagine there was a que there there's no dispute among people who have common sense or heard any official pronunciation of the Pokemon that it's unknown pine cone like pine cone you sound like you don't know what a pine cone is if you just say pine echo sizzle not schizoar because that's not how you pronounce SC in English and it's not scissor either so that's that would be pretty dumb that's not an intimidating name swine um it's a swine so it's not swing up its swine up piloswine not piloswine Mantine i was guilty of saying Mantine but it's obviously Mantine like manta ray and marine miltank not milk tank that's ridiculous don't add case where they don't belong Reiko raikou is one word for lightning and Co means Emperor so raikou is not on the table hoo not ho-ho Sceptile if you say sceptile i will find you and I will kill you Gardevoir Gardevoir it's French and we'll see the same mistake for the evolution of dusclops slacking because it slacks off I mean I used to call it flaking so Who am I to judge nincada I know it's based on a cicada but every official pronunciation is nincada sorry man and/or lady speaking ladies Ilham is a not illumise this is also an instance of a pokemon that shares its name in japanese over there it's pronounced Edo music Milotic like venus de milo a symbol of beauty not melodic beignet Bane and marionette not Banat Chimecho I mean it's a wind chime and those can echo if you pronounce it chime Cho I don't know what to tell you Salomon as in immense salamander it's big so don't call it Salomon regice not Reggie ice there's only one I Kyogre Kai ogre kayo is ocean in Japanese and you know what an ovary Keo grease sounds stupid Groudon not Groudon or ground on Rayquaza I know it's spelled Rayquaza but it's without a doubt 100% pronounced Rayquaza like Ray and quasar vespiquen there is only one I know it's weird but it's definitely not best to Queen lopunny I used to say lopunny but it's clear when you realize that a lop is any breed of bunny that has floppy ears miss Maggie is not miss Maggie is or miss Mei Jia sir miss Maggie is I know magic the word but don't overthink it bond fly like bonzi and fly or lime because it's not really a tree mag mortar nuts mag more tar it's name comes from mortar togetic togetic in japanese Toja kiss is not a thing you should say dust knew all nut dust nor doir is black in french you see as in you and pixie not exceed that that's nasty Dialga it's the elder not dialogue I'm sorry phione not fiown it's based on the Cleo Nate so it's pronunciation is justified Arceus all official pronunciations of Arceus after generation for pronounce it this way it was originally Arceus but then they realized arses British English for but so they officially changed it but understand that every single origin of our cases name has Arcanist not ours muna like the moon's mana is an ugly name for such a pretty Pokemon its felton pronounced this way because it's a known Yomi of the Japanese word for dream it has the same name in Japanese sigilyph a sigil is a symbol sometimes with magical powers that's kind of what syphilis looks like and again modern English wouldn't have it pronounced as sigilyph although if you pronounced it like that because you thought I had anything to do with the glyphs then maybe you're in the right direction cough agree gun it's definitely not cough aggregate although I must admit that that's how I used to pronounce it it's a combination of coffin egregious and sarcophagus but to be fair this may be the hardest Pokemon to pronounce ryu nicholas because before it's split and now it's whole again so reuni as in one and funkiness or nucleus accel born like accelerate because he's fast aloma mola it's not hard if you simply read it so why is it tough for people to pronounce it it's a palindrome it's read the same backwards and has mom in the middle so hello mom hola aloma mola god damn it it's not that hard I read it once and knew it forever by the way I just listened to the recording of myself and yeah I went to really high sorry for that annoying this moving on archeops named after and based on the Archaeopteryx so not archeops Garbo der garbage and odor so it makes absolute sense I used to say garbodor back when I was unenlightened bear - it's a bear so why would you pronounce it bei Arctic draught again I used to unknowingly pronounce it dragon bouffalant from the bouffant hairstyle vallah by like lullaby so it's not bulla be Dino Silas and hi dragon they include the German numbers four one two and three which is ein thigh and I co Balian tarik Ian and Verizon yeah they're hard to pronounce fletchinder like cinder not fletchinder vivillon not vivillon because Papillon is French for butterfly same rule for corchia florges like gorgeous not florges furfrou like frou-frou and fur duh blade double blade why are people calling it do blame Aegis lash it's just aegislash man don't argue Aegis means backing or protection and was a mythical shield by nichole like bicycle or binoculars there are two barnacles let's count them together one I'll go slower one two - barnacles not drag algae like algae because it looks like algae dedenne like antennae which it has on its face a belt oh because it's a combo of people in Old English and talent this is you I'm a deciduous plant sheds its leaves annually this thing is a ghost type so it's very appropriate don't embarrass yourself by calling it death said do I think of all Rika is Old English for instance the lights upon it's a Goliath isopod nobody mispronounces those two words so why Sega Lissa pod or go with Co pod fill Val I it was named by gladion himself so valley is his silver Ally his friend so valley is simply preposterous ninja Lego until we get official pronunciation it could be nya Lee go nya Lego or nilly go because it all depends on whether or not we would pronounce it the Latin way or the English plain English would make it nylon ego while LAN would make it me heel and egg on there are more is pronounced Pokemon but that's it for now if you enjoyed this and want more high quality videos
