ITT: names we used to mispronounce

I used to call Pichu "pie-choo" and Pikachu "pie-key-choo"
I thought that was how it was pronounced it until 2003

Somebody fucked up somewhere. Because, despite intentions, the language says that's the latter.

You crazy? It's obvious that it's pronounced like 'nibble', regardless of spelling.

English is hardly the most consistent language, it's just as important to look at context as it is to look at spelling, if not more so.

The correct pronunciation of that word is exactly how its spelled. Game Freak messed up. I get what they were going for, but Gible G-I-B-L-E is pronounced like bible.

I swear, I never even tried to pronounce Suicune as a child. When I read it in my head I'd just go 'S-------' or whatever. For someone who was supposedly a good reader I did that a lot.
And I'm one of those people who said 'Hermy-own' until the fourth book literally pronounced the name for you.
