hey and i'll show you the new lady on i just caught plus bulbapedia even says the latter part of its name is from alien which you say like alien not alien if they wanted it to be lady on then its name should have ended in i o n not i a n so i'm going to keep calling it lady in because lady on is dumb next up is arya dose its official pronunciation is ariados aereodose this is one i understand the first part of its name is from ariadne the princess from greek mythology that gave theseus some twine to help him navigate the labyrinth the pronunciation ariados makes sense but i call it aryados because when i was a kid that's what the show called it based on my admittedly minimal research it seems like they swapped the pronunciation when they moved from the hoenn saga to the sinnoh saga of the anime which is precisely when i stopped watching as much that's when they changed the voice actors and i just never got used to the new ones even though they're not even new anymore they've been around for like NUMBER_TOKEN years but it's still just not the same as what i grew up with i feel like i along with anyone else deserves a pass for calling an ariados because that was its official pronunciation during the sagas of the anime that i watched the most i acknowledge that area dose is correct and makes more logical sense but since arya dose was official i think it's okay for me to stick with it next up is ampharos its official pronunciation is ampharos ampheros i don't like it at first i thought this was a situation like arya dose where it was pronounced a certain way when i was a kid but has since changed to another but it turns out that's not the case they've flipped back and forth and for us and for us and for us they started by saying ampharos and then went to ampharos and then went back to ampharos guys if you could just be consistent regardless of the anime though ampharos is a much more logical pronunciation since its name comes from amp and pharos the greek word for lighthouse also my pronunciation just sounds cooler ampharos sounds like a powerful figure from greek mythology like kronos whereas ampharos sounds like that one guy from friends got turned into a frog next is mantine the official pronunciation is mantine mantine it's a combination of manta and marine okay makes sense but you know what else makes sense it being a combination of manta and brine thus being mantine obopedia acknowledges both potential name origins and you know what else does the freaking anime a mantine go man they used to call it mantine which is where i got my pronunciation but now they call it mantine i am of the opinion that if the anime pronounces it a certain way at any point in time then that pronunciation is valid so mantine that's great go for it call it that but i'm gonna keep calling it mantine because i'm not wrong at least i don't think i should be considered wrong next is ninketa the official pronunciation is ninkada this situation is an odd one
