Is this a joke? It makes sense, but I've always called it "deli-bird" because in my child mind I thought "Ice type, deli meat stays in the fridge, this makes sense to 7 year old me" and I never thought about it after that because who the fuck uses this pokemon?
>>
>>26155799
Of course. If a vowel is followed by a consonant followed by a vowel, then the first vowel is long. A long "i" sounds like "eye," so the only way to pronounce it is "char-eye-zard."
>>
>>26155947
>camel
>satin
>professor

the list could go on, etc.
>>
>>26155936
Well, it's the "delivery" Pokemon, so I can only infer that Delibird (delivered) is right. But your kid logic makes sense to kid me, too. I guess now the question is: why is this an ice-type?
>>
>>26155947
that's only a "hard" rule if it's vowel - consonant - e, and not even then

regardless, you're wrong, because Charizard is pronounced with a short "i" in the anime

>>26155936
The anime actually pronounces it "Deli-bird" iirc and not "delivered" but "delivered" is probably technically more correct

>>26155936
Are you me? I always pronounced it like that using the same line of reasoning, from when I was a kid. The fact that the anime also used that pronunciation didn't help.

I thought Delibird was like a refrigerated chicken sandwich or something as a kid, and never gave it a second thought.
>>
>>26155855
There's a slim possibility that might have been intentional. The pun might have been one meant to be read and not spoken. I noticed the "delivered" thing a while back too, and I appreciated it a lot. But I couldn't break the habit of calling it Delibird.

I'm still puzzled on how Hydreigon is pronounced.
I've been saying Hydra-gon recently. When I first saw Ghestis' I didn't read the name properly and called it Hydree-jun, thinking it was spelled Hydregion, for about a week or so until I got my own.

>>
Lessee...

I prefer "Arse-e-us" because it makes me giggle, and nothing can make its mind up on that one.

Exeggutor was "Executor"
Back when I was a young, stupid kid, I pronounced Rayquaza as "Rock-wah-za".

Up until recently I pronounced Florges as "Flor-gs".

I prefer emphasis on the second syllable of Bidoof, without a pause between the syllables.

When I first saw it, I pronounced Giratina as "Jiratina".

I used to pronounce Dialga "Die-alga".

I pronounced Tropius like "Tropic" instead of "trope".

I'm still uncertain if it is supposed to be "Re-jice" or "Rej-E-Ice". Back when I was younger, I pronounced a hard G in all three of the Regis.

Gible was "Guy-ble" until I saw gabite and got the name theme.

I pronounced Hydreigon as "Hide-region"

Metagross was "Me-ta-graws". This one still sneaks up on me from time to time.

I got Latias right as a kid. Latios "La-ti-oose", not so much.

I did pretty good in X and Y. I even got the Binacle line right. Only Yeveltal got me. Can't spell it either. Darndest thing.

Despite all of this, I always got "Gar-de-vwor" correct.
