The matter of Pokemon saying their names in the anime is something a lot of people dispute. I think some Pokemon (Staryu for instance) have way better cries in the anime, whereas Pokemon like Nidoking and Drifblim definitely have some remarkable in-game cries.
Where do you stand on the issue, /vp/, and if you have one, what's your favorite cry from the anime? Pic related, with Dewgong and Pumpkaboo('s Japanese cry, anyway, no idea what it sounds like in English) following close behind.
