>>12669926I always found it weird that it's Pokémon and not Poke'mon. The full title is Pocket Monsters, right? Then Pokemon should be a contraction like "don't" or "can't" or "I'll" or "I'm". So the word by logic should be Poke'mon, right?
But it's Pokémon. Which is pronounced "Po-kay-mon", but the é is a little too rigid for some people to continue saying, so it became softer over time for some people (po-kah-mon). Words are weird, man.
