Generation 4 · Sinnoh

# How to pronounce every Gen 4 Pokémon name

Generation 4 is the Sinnoh generation: 107 Pokémon, numbers 387 to 493 in the National Pokédex.

All 107 respellings below follow how English official media say the names. 15 names have medium confidence, usually because English media do not all say it the same way; the note under the name says how.

The Pokémon Company has corrected 2 names from this generation at its own events: Drapion and Uxie. A hyphen in a name is not pronounced: Porygon-Z is POR-ih-gon ZEE.

Capital letters mark the loud syllable: PEE-kuh-choo means the PEE gets the push.
