Why "pokkiiman" in the katakana?
- Because Pokémon is a combination of Pocket and Monster, which are English words. --~~FlareNUKE (Page Talk Contrib ☻) 09:03, 3 August 2006 (UTC)
Hmmm... Pokemon comes from "POKEtto MONsutaa" which is "Pocket Monsters" So it's PO-KE-MO-N (ポケモン)
- Well, techincally in Nihon-land, it's just "Pocket Monsters", they are never called Pokémon. ~~FlareNUKE (Page Talk Contrib ☻) 22:52, 6 August 2006 (UTC)
