*A* manga? And it links to Special? Um...there's at *least* five Pokémon mangas out there...The only reason I'm not changing it myself is because I don't know if we have a general "pokémon manga" listing. | ==Manga== | ||

::: Since I do not know how to read katakana I cannot help out with this, but I would like to make a mention to one of the [[Talk:Pok%C3%A9mon#Think_this_is_a_good_place_to_ask.|sections that is above this one]] which says that the romanization is "monsutaa" instead of "monsutā." Sorry if this does not help, but I think that it might help out in this discussion. --[[User:Super goku|Super goku]] ([[User talk:Super goku|talk]]) 00:35, 18 October 2012 (UTC) | ::: Since I do not know how to read katakana I cannot help out with this, but I would like to make a mention to one of the [[Talk:Pok%C3%A9mon#Think_this_is_a_good_place_to_ask.|sections that is above this one]] which says that the romanization is "monsutaa" instead of "monsutā."

:::::It is Pocket Monster'''s'''. [[Game Boy Tower|The title screens on the Japanese versions of Red/Green, Blue, Yellow, Gold/Silver and Crystal]] clearly translate it as Pocket Monster'''s''', so I don't understand why are you changing it all of a sudden.

== Pokemon vs Pokémon in Japan == | |||

https://youtu.be/pbgptf3H23M?t=10m29s | |||
it's written as "'''Pokemon'''", and not "'''Pokémon'''". Is this notable, or is Japan inconsistent with the accent?

:Generally speaking they're normally inconsistent with its usage, leaning more towards using "Pokémon" in recent years than in the early years of the franchise. --[[User:Abcboy|Abcboy]] ([[User talk:Abcboy|talk]]) 05:15, 5 January 2018 (UTC) | |||
