How do you Prefer to Refer to Multiple Pokémon?

Re: How do you Prefer to Refer to Multiple Pokémon?

... That thought has never ONCE crossed my mind... I'm trying to remember... T__T" But I generally don't talk about Pokemon in large numbers... so I THINK** I stay with the singular forms.
 
Re: How do you Prefer to Refer to Multiple Pokémon?

"There are many Pokemon." I don't like to add an "s". Pokemon is like the word "deer", you don't say: "There are many deers."

To me, adding an "s" sounds wrong. Pokemon is both the singular and plural form. As are any Pokemon names. "There sure are a lot of Poochyena!"
Ditto

I just call many pokemon, pokemon o hey theres a hoard of nosepass! i will go kill all of them! (they creepy)
 
Re: How do you Prefer to Refer to Multiple Pokémon?

yeah, I mostly don't use an s on the species names. Sometimes I forget... but since I don't write much, it doesn't really matter! (Vermont accent means that half the time I don't pronounce the end of the word anywho.)
 
Re: How do you Prefer to Refer to Multiple Pokémon?

I usually call groups without the S at the end... Uh, I guess it's because I wouldn't call Pokemon "Pokemon's"...
