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:
