::::The point is that the translation we provide is not necessarily the Hepburn romanization but the official romanization, like we do for Pokémon pages. Using {{p|Swablu}} as an example, the Hepburn romanization of チルット is ''Chirutto'', but the official romanization is ''Tyltto''. The same applies for Skyla (although it is much less extreme); the official romanization of her name is ''Hurro'', while the Hepburn is ''Furro''. Besides, the Japanese ふ/フ is halfway between ''fu'' and ''hu'' anyway. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 05:19, 15 February 2013 (UTC) | ::::The point is that the translation we provide is not necessarily the Hepburn romanization but the official romanization, like we do for Pokémon pages.

:::: It's not really complicated. The sound is the http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voiceless_bilabial_fricative , also written as [ɸ] or [pʰ]. It's an F consonant made by air blown through tight lips (like when saying "phew") instead of teeth and lip contact. It sounds much more like F than H. Thanks for the clarification, SM. I wish we could implement this alongside the pronunciation guide we discussed. --[[User:IWannaBeTheVeryBest|IWannaBeTheVeryBest]] ([[User talk:IWannaBeTheVeryBest|talk]]) 09:18, 15 February 2013 (UTC) | :::: It's not really complicated.
