I couldn't think of any better page to bring this up on, so I just thought I'ld say it here; I think that there should be something next to each Pokémon's name at the top of each page that says the correct pronunciation of the Pokémon's name. You could find the pronunciation using the anime and Pokédex 3D Pro. [[User:Mangaman13|Mangaman13]] ([[User talk:Mangaman13|talk]]) 12:27, 19 March 2014 (UTC)

:We definitely cannot use anime as a reliable source due to the inconsistencies of Pokémon name (Such as Raikou and Misdreavus). Official guidebooks are also unreliable due to the conflicting pronunciation between guides.--[[User:Force Fire|<span style="color:#025DA6">'''F'''</span><span style="color:#5A96C5">orce</span>]][[User talk:Force Fire|<span style="color:#EA1A3E">'''F'''</span><span style="color:#F16A81">ire</span>]] 13:13, 19 March 2014 (UTC)

::I believe we used to have a pronunciation section in the infobox, but  it was removed due to conflicting sources. For example, the [[Kanto Pokérap|PokéRAP]] calls Venusaur (I will use ^ above a vowel for short vowel sounds, and _ above it for long) Vênûsor, while "Island of the Giant Pokémon" calls it Vēnûsor.
