How the anime pronounces?

Being a combination of the French words "Garde" (guard) and "Devoir" (duty), French is probably the right way to go.

Why can't GF or Nintendo just make a list of how every single Pokemon name is intended to be pronounced?

In the Queen's English, botching pronunciation of French words is an honored tradition.

It's also a portmanteau of Garde (to protect or keep close) and Voir (to see), "Garde de Voir"

The proper pronunciation is GAR-duh-vwar in English, at least according to the anime.

Does it? I should probably listen to the voice tracks. But I'd like to see it in a written format too.

>>12683694
r in French typically sounds like a light a in english, especially if the speaker has an accent.

Its also where that weird "-eir" sound comes from in place of an acute accented e. I've been taking French for going on 4 years now and I still cannot figure out how French people with heavy accents survive.

Not if it's at the end of a word.
Gardevoir = Gar-devwa
It's not like you pronounce "Au-rev-wa" as "ay-u ree-voy-rr"

I already pronounce it like that, only I don't make the effort to make it sound French (by that, I mean putting on the accent. Like those faggots that order Italian food and put that shitty accent on to say pasta names).

You pronounce the r at the end of a word in French, except for some case like in "manger" where - er is pronounced like -é.
