Yeah, the Regis have always been tricky to pronounce in my opinion. Like, Regice sounds different than Regirock since the letter I is pronounced in the word ice... so it's like redge ice versus redgie rock... right?
I say Regigiags like pichu bros. rox, just looks like it would sound that way.

Regigigas? I've been saying "rej uh GIG us" . . . is that even remotely correct???
Either that, or "REJ ud gig us" would be correct.

I do it Re-Ge-Gi-Gus, with the Ge sounding like saying the letter G.

The current comercial over at http://go-pokemon.com has the announcer saying Regigigas. It is about the way I say it, but with a strange placing of the dominant syllable (Just sounds like he is putting to much emphasis on the last syllable).

No, it's redgie-ice. That's how it was pronounced in Lucario and the mystery of Mew.

Which is stupid since its wrong. Just like Unown is pronounced Un-known, even though it should be un-own.

Well Regiice doesn't look right. I think it's common sense that it would be pronounced Regi-ice even though it's technically wrong.

As drmario pointed out, technically everybody should be saying un-own, but nobody does. Just like nobody (that I know of) says vic-tree-bell. Everybody I've met (I think) says victery-bell. the "er" in "victery" is like th "er" in "burr".

Ok, thanks for clearing up the Regice thingv guys.
The Unown is an interesting point.... but I mean but what's the difference between saying Unown and Unknown... they sound the same if you say them as a single word withourt separating them... But an interesting thing to note... on Pokegym, the symbols for the Unown, like in my sig, are incorrectly spelled "unknown" in the code Never noticed that before
:unknown-l:unknown-o:unknown-l, I actually always thought it was spelled Unknown too...
Yeah, I always just slur that together and say victery bell.

We're talking about how to pronounce it in English. I still think that it's reg-E-G-gas.
