ITT: Pokemon whose names get misspelled FAR too often. >Ninetails

>>31213870
Why didn't they name it Ninetails anyway? Copyright problems?

Aquaranid

>>31213890
No idea. It's always been Ninetales and I get pissed off if anyone says otherwise.

>>31213908
I swear it tookme like a week to stop writting it as "aranaquid".

>>31213908
It's Araquanid.

>>31213926
Which is funny because even the OFFICIAL MERCHANDISE sometimes gets it wrong.

>>31213890
My guess is Ninetales is kind of meant to be able to wield Psychic/Ghost abilities and in the anime had a few episodes where it's associated with Shinto shrines/folkloric stuff. So whereas they went all the way with Arcanine and its species is identified as a "Legendary Pokemon", Ninetales is a slightly different take where in and of itself it's the stuff of legends.

>>31213990
Forgot to make my actual point. I mean it's the stuff of legends, or even tales, if you like.

Misspelled and/or mispronounced. It's supposed to be Dragon + algae. Dra-gal-gee.

Most mons' names are easy if you just break them down.

Not even gonna try with Kangaskhan. I know there's another H in there somewhere.

hi

I vaguely remember as a young child playing gen 1&2 half the time I would see the start and end of the name and just sort of half ass whatever was in the middle. The one example I can actually remember was instead of "chikorita" I would say/think "chi-kot-ri-ka"

Then one day I remember being all like "hold the phone, I can actually fucking read and that clearly says chik-o-rita"

>>31214163
Why do people mess up with these ones, especially in pronouncing them?

It's "execute" and "executor" but with the egg pun thrown it.

>>31214271
What do people mispronounce them as? I've never heard someone get it wrong

>>31214310
Usually it's Exeggutor as "Eggsacuter", sometimes it's worse. I remember I heard some dude miss a whole syllabal in there but I forget how he said it. It was appalling.

>>31214403
It's clearly supposed to be pronounces eggseggutor

>>31213946
Arañaquid?

>when people mix up Alola/Alolan forms.

It's called an Alola form because they're FROM Alola. Therefor they are AloLAN. Alolan Ninetales not Alola Nintales.

>>31213870
But it got 9tails so why not ninetails

It's 2017, character limitations are a thing of the past now.

Vespiquen is just them being retarded, not because of the old character limit.

For some reason I always pronounced Hydreigon as Hydredgion. I think I got it confused with Drudgion since they're from the same Gen.

>>31213890
I'm guessing it was a pun in Japanese but they translated it literally.

>>31214595
I had a friend pronounce Nihilego as "ne-hee-lee-goh" recently. It triggered my fucking autism so hard. It's "nye-uh-lee-goh"

>>31213870
>ghastly
Okay, at least Onix being misspelled as Onyx makes sense cause onyx is a gemstone, but I've never ever will understand this one.

>>31214271
Exeggcute keeps the "c" while Exeggutor doesn't. That's one way to confuse people

>>31214751

Ghastly is an actual word so I guess that's why.

Eelektross, or rather "Elektross" gets spelt wrong all the time.

>always think its spelled differently
>nope, it's just Persian
This is probably the laziest, most uncreative Pokemon name ever.

It's just Persian. They didn't even bother to change the spelling like they did with Muk and Seel. It's just...Persian. Why?

>>31214595
Druddigon, you mean.

>>31214729
[ni hi lε go'] is perfectly valid.

>>31215702
It's latin, so I'm using the latin pronounciation.

>>31215726
...that's nowhere near actual latin, anon.

>>31213990
speaking of this its weird it wasnt retyped to fire/fairy, fire/psychic, fire/ghost.

If you remember it's a palindrome it's easier to figure it out, like Girafarig!

Gyarados.
Also no one fucking knows how to pronounce it especially in non-English speaking communities
