I remember this thread....

Um... Most of the cities in Unova... ^^" i still have trouble spelling them

And "feraligatr". I used to spell it as Feraligator

Same here, if it weren't for the fact that the games have a 10 character limit like Serebii does :)o), I'd probably still spell it that way.

Feraligatr and Gyarados are my main two.

This. I have a hard enough time remembering them.

For the longest time I thought Phanpy was Phanphy. I'd been saying and spelling its name wrong for over a decade...

I still don't know if it's "Mr Mime" or "Mr. Mime". Maybe it's just me, but putting a period in a Pokemon's official name just isn't right in my opinion.

I too thought Phanpy was Phanphy. My friends can't even say Alomomola, but it doesn't really trouble me. I think I can probably spell them all pretty well.

Cool story bro
One of the hardest for me is Cryogonal (had to look up, I always try to write it with G and really weirdly). And I also thought Feraligatr was Feraligator for really long time. ;080;

I can never remember if it's "Ninetails" or "Ninetales." I practice every time I see the Pokemon. I have ingrained in my brain now that it's the latter, but we'll see how long that lasts.

And for our obligatory "My god, fifth gen names are weird" entry, Druddigon.

Here's a few spelling mistakes I've made in the past:

Amammanmalo (I'm serious) = Alomomola
Feraligater = Feraligatr
Shyman = Shaymin
Arseus (See what I did there?)= Arceus
Groundon =Groudon... because it's a Ground type...

I used to always add an extra S to Froslass (I spelled it "Frosslass"). Jigglypuff and Wigglytuff can trip me up as well, and I always want to spell Venipede like "Venopede." I also have a habit of spelling Diglett with only one T. Bouffalant, Wobbuffet, and Forretress can give me trouble sometimes, too.

I still don't know if it's "Mr Mime" or "Mr. Mime". Maybe it's just me, but putting a period in a Pokemon's official name just isn't right in my opinion.

Its official name is spelled with the period, just like Mime Jr. It's really no different from the hyphens in Ho-Oh and Porygon-Z or the apostrophe in Farfetch'd.

I can't spell Reuniclus (Rayuniclus) either.

Exeggutor? Exegcuttor? I could never spell its name correctly without a little google search. I also spell Diglett as Digglet sometimes. Derp.
