>>59113277I'm sorry your parents groonded you as a kid, anon.But they hate it when you drop their expensive dishes on the groond.
>>59113195>Rey-kwa-zathat one is actually correct
>>59113195Arse-see-us is correct.Yanks are just afraid of anything that sounds like a rude word.

>>59113412People on yt are using ray-kway-za
>>59113417>>59113432Ar-ki-yus is the correct pronunciation you fucking retard
>>59113412Not in english, lolJapanese is Rekkuza, which is pronounced exactly how it's spelled, but if you watch any (literally any) clip of the english dub, Rayquaza is pronounced NUMEROUS TIMES by english speakers. If you wanted to start from Destiny Deoxys, which is Rayquaza's first appearance in the anime proper, it is pronounced Ray-Qway-Zah for the entire runtime of the 2004 film.
>>59113459>RKS SystemSure buddy
>>59113523Yeah but thats gay
>>59113534>But my irrelevant ABILITY!!!Not this fucking shit again. Every goddamn movie, book and other media prounces it Ar-key-us you retard, RKS is meant as a reference not a literal guide on the pronunciation of the Alpha Pokemon

rayquayza like quasar
>>59113195Somehow I went from pronouncing it Ar-Kay-Us to Ar-Say-Us because it was corrected, and now I find out that I was correct (well, more correct) when I started?
>>59114788Arc-seus has always been the correct one
>>59113787Isnt iced tea the national drink of the south?
reminder Ar-say-oos is technically the true canon pronunciation (アルセウス)
>>59113195groundon is my favorite fire type
>>59114772IT'S PRONOUNCED ROCKWA-EEZUH!
>>59113459the original official pronunciation was indeed Ar-see-us, with a soft c.It was later retconned to a hard c, because people thought it sounded like arse (british way of saying ass).The retcon was bad, as the reason for the retcon was just retarded, hence why I prefer using the original pronunciation.Not to mention the Anglos doubling down on the retcon with the RKS System, which is just called Alpha System in Japanese.Raikou *should be* pronounced Rai-koh, but the localisers fucked up by not removing the u, which only exists as an indicator for an elongated o in Japanese, something that is useless in English.They should have spelt it Raiko/Raikoh, if they wanted to make its pronunciation disambiguous.Rai-koo is factually the incorrect pronunciation, but most people dont care about it and still use it.Rayquayza is the correct pronunciation, but some people intentionally use the incorrect Rayquahza, because it sounds better (a few other pokemon share this trait, such as Ferrothorn).No excuses here, though, as it is straight up just a preference to willingly use the wrong pronunciation.
>>59113733Since his name is based on the German word for the number 3, spelt as "drei" but pronounced as "dry", it should be:High-Dry-GoneFor its pre-evos, 2 is spelt "zwei", pronounced as "tsvai" and 1 is spelt "eins", pronounced as "eye-ns".The "ein" used in "Deino" technically means "a" (like in "a book") and not "1" (like in "one book"), but it is close enough to the number 1.
>>59115483Yeah this is where I got the pronunciation from, but now that I understand the pun in>RKS systemIt makes me doubt that. Because if the soft C was the intended English pronunciation that ability could have trivially been “RCS system” for the same pun, arguably even better since the spelling more closely invokes Arceus (being just the consonants)
>>59116714>which is just called Alpha System in JapaneseAR System. Which would be like if the English name for the ability were R-Sys. Which is also an even better pun than RKS.
>>59113412Ray-qway-za just seems natural to me.
>>59113459It's actually Arkoos
>>59116714>Rayquayza is the correct pronunciation,Retard
