More of the most mispronounced Pokemon names released

Another round of names have been released that covers some of the most mispronounced Pokemon.

A few days ago, an image surfaced from the 2025 Pokemon Championships showing how Rayquaza is supposed to be pronounced. The intended way of doing so is with ray-KWAY-zuh. Some fans had instead been using Ray-KWAH-zuh, which we now know technically isn’t correct.

It turns out that a few other names were showcased during the 2025 Pokemon Championships, and now those have been shared online. Here’s the full list of mispronounced Pokemon:

• Illumise (EE-LOOM-MEE-ZAY)
• Farigiraf (FUH-RIG-UH-RAFF)
• Kingambit (KIHN-GAM-BIT)
• Drapion (DRAP-EE-ON)

What do you make of the list? How many of these Pokemon have you been pronouncing? Let us know in the comments below.
