I actually prefer that over WiWa.
WDWV would work too.
>>
>>59107962
winwey sounds the most plausible so far
>>
>>59107962
Why not fucking WW?
>>
>>59108115
reminds me of SS (nazi thing) (they were evil)
because two same letters
>>
>>59108115
Because I (King of all Tards) declared that "WW" gave me the ick.

If DPPt (Pt for Platinum to discern it from Pearl) is fine, then why are SwSh (both start with S so they include the next letter to discern them from each other) and WiWa (both start with W so they include the next letter to discern them from each other) considered bad?
>>
>>59108447
SwSh is not considered bad, it's necessary since Soul Silver existed before.
Meanwhile we don't have any other WW Pokémon game, so WW is enough (and WiWa is unnecessary and retarded)
>>
>>59108599
>WW
White and White2?

It is WW. Don't listen to anyone else.

>>59108653
Is that a porn site?
>>
>>59107962
Why not WaW, pronounced like "wow"
>>
>>59108115
WiWa is funnier.
>>
The real reason why WiWa is better is because is has less syllables, abbreviations (when pronounced out loud) have always lowered the would of syllables which is why SwSh was done

Consider the following
>>
>>59108115
Because imagine pronouncing it

"WiWa" is much better than "WW"
>>
>>59108963
"Swuh Shi" is basically the same syllable count as "Ess Ess" though.
>>
>>59108115
Because, like with SwSh, you can't diffrentiate them from their shortened versions.
>>
>>59108983
Doesn't matter if you're talking about the pair as a whole. Nobody refers to Pokemon Ruby as Pokemon R.
They teach you about context clues in school for a reason.
>>
>>59108996
Bulbapedia uses the shortened versions for version exclusive lists etc.
>>
>>59108982
I always say it like Swish or Switch.
One syllable.

It’s WW. Only fucking retarded, blue-haired, niggers with an IQ of 80-110 would overly complicate such a simple abbreviation.
>>
>>59108983
The fuck are you talking about? Are you retarded? There is no other pokemon game with SS, there's nothing to differentiate it from in the first place.
>>
>>59109072
Soul Silver?
>>
>>59108115
Typically an abreiviation is meant to be shorter than what you are substituting verbally. Double Double-u or Double-u Double-u is longer than just saying wind and waves.

>>59109072
Soul Silver
>>
>>59108115
Makes them easier to decern when talked about individually. Plus Sword and Shield are already SwSh. People say it's needed because the abreviation HGSS already exists and therefore, while SwSh was nessicary, WiWa (or other variations) aren't. Even if we say that's the only good reason for Sword and Shield to be abbreviated as SwSh, the inconsistentsy between SwSh and WW would be odd. Beside, we already have have W version, two of them in fact. So if Soul Silver means we should have SwSh, then White means we should have WiWa or WdWv or whatever the fuck. Besides, the vast majority of people I see online are going with WiWa, so it seems that's won out already.

Godforbid I have a little bit of fun with my dialect when discussing the childrens' media fanchise online. But noooooo, that's le Reddit.

Me when Pokémon Winds 2 and Waves 2 come out

Is that booru?
Booru is run by troons
>>
>>59109071
My IQ is 137 and I say WiWa
>>
>>59108644
Because that doesn't work anymore. Gen 8 can mean SWSH, but it can also mean PLA.
Gen 9 can mean SV, but it can also mean PLZA or Champions.
Gen 10 will also be able to refer to Champions once it starts adding Gen 10 content, as well as Legends: Galar and, assuming it reaches fruition, Project Seed.
>>
I'm-a WaWiO. I'm-a gonna win! AHAHAHAHA!!!
>>
>>59108963
One, no one pronounces abbreviations, but two, even if they did, "w, i, w, a" is eight syllables, "w, w" is six. WW is JUST faster, every time, and the fact people recognize it was Winds and Waves means I can just use WW regardless of what retards think.
>>
>>59109499
Do you fucking say Oh-Are-Aye-Ess?
>>
>>59109499
We-wah vs do-buh-you-do-buh-you
>>
>>59107962
>>59108115
It's WinWav.
>>
Well no one's ever gonna pronounce "Wiwa", so that point is moot. Has the same amount of syllables as Wind-Waves.
>>
>>59109684
Isn't wiwa some kind of SpongeBob meme?
>>
>>59109690
You're thinking of Wee-Woo
>>
If the new gen is confirmed to have no minorities, we could called it Pokémon WhiteWashed, and it would be hilarious.
>>
>>59109168
My iq is 152. I say ww. follow your superiors

>>59107962
>Those (FRLG) released before Wind Wave were shown off
??? didn't they release on Pokemon Day? the same day the trailer was shown?
>>
>>59109095

Are you fucking retarded? You don’t ever say abbreviations out loud. They’re for reading and writing
>>
>>59110005
No one says Central Intelligence Agency.
>>
>>59108129
>they were evil
No they weren't, you fucking kike.
>>
>>59108616
Retard. They’re never grouped together. It’s BW and BW2.

>>59108963
>>59109095
Do you actually read it at double you double you in your heads? Don’t most people just substitute Winds Waves? If you speak it, just say Gen 10 or Winds Waves, as like >>59109684 said, “wee wah” is the same number of syllables as Winds Waves.
>>
>>59110053
NTA, but we’re talking Pokemon games here. Nobody says RBY/RBGY “are bee why” out loud, they just say Gen 1. Same for GSC, RSE, DPPt, etc. Exceptions I’ve heard are ORAS as “ore-rass” and SwSh as “swish” but neither of those sound as rerarded as “wee wuh.” Call it Gen 10 or Winds Waves when speaking, not “double you double you.”

>>59110096

Legends: Galar? Champions in 2027? Project Seed?

I have an IQ of 167 (don't laugh). I say WiWa
>>
>>59110139
>(don't laugh)
Are you sure it’s not 67?
>>
>>59110148
Nope. Every test I've taken puts it within the range of 165-169
>>
>>59110096
IT'S B2W2 YOU FUCKING TARD

GUYS LOOK, I'M AN AMBULANCE! WI WA WI WA WI WA WI WA WI WA WI WA WI WA WIIIIIIIIIIIII WAAAAAAAAAAA

>>59108129
SS = Schutz Staffel or Skyward Sword
WW= World War or Wind Waker
>>
>>59110574
Go back to Zelda, you are in the wrong franchise dude.

Based on this thread we can all agree that WW is the correct way. And the ones who disagree are either retards or trannies or both.
