    It is supposed to be Poe-kay-mon. I say Poe-kuh-mon, though.
    I switch between both pronunciations there.

    Probably because I accidently focused too much on Swedish pronounciations. XD

    The English "Poke-e-mon" would sound a lot like ['pokemon] if a Swedish person were to pronounce it, because Swedish doesn't make use of diphthongs, except for in borrowed words like "automat".
