::: 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."
