:Ditto that. Maybe this section should look at "repeated" designs, i.e. Butterfree and Beautifly.

==About the pronunciation==


I was looking at my old VHSs and on the back of one it gave a definition thing and gave a pronunciation as Poh-Kay-Mahn. Would that be right or wrong? As it can be a trivia on another page if not.--'''[[User:Midnight Blue|<span style="color:#191970">Midnight</span>]] [[User talk:Midnight Blue|<span style="color:#8C92AC">''Blue''</span>]]''' 05:16, 19 January 2010 (UTC)

:Well I know it's not pronounced Poh-Ka-Mon. The é makes it Poh-Kay-Mon. Also, it's accepted as Pok-Kay-Mon pretty much anywhere now. In the animation, card game, etc. - [[User:Vhayes1992|Vhayes1992]] 16:57, 19 January 2010 (UTC)

:If this article had more beef, I'd probably be against moving it. But then again, as long as there's one for each entity, why not? On the other hand, if this article was ''split'', there would be even less content in each separate article than what little is already in the unified one. Should I add a move notice at the top of the page? <!-- I know that you're either reading the source code or replying to the conversation, so don't imagine you have additional options >:) --> '''—[[User:AlexTheRose|<span style="color:#AF0000;">Дlεχ</span>]][[User_talk:AlexTheRose|<span style="color:#0000AF;">Thε</span>]][[Special:Contributions/AlexTheRose|<span style="color:#00AF00;">Rσϛε</span>]]''' 00:49, 2 February 2012 (UTC)
