And they can't even pronounced Pokémon right.
 
Re: Sprouse brothers to star in Pokémon commercial: Advertisement to feature HeartGol

Oooh! I posted the "making of" video in my blog yesterday!
 
Re: Sprouse brothers to star in Pokémon commercial: Advertisement to feature HeartGol

That's actually how it's pronounced, Ryuu...

Anyway, their voices seem to have gotten deeper since the Suite Life, also they're EIGHTEEN NOW.

Why am I not in a Pokemon commercial? D:
 
Re: Sprouse brothers to star in Pokémon commercial: Advertisement to feature HeartGol

I didn't realize there was so much emphasis on the Kay.
 
Re: Sprouse brothers to star in Pokémon commercial: Advertisement to feature HeartGol

I jsut listened to the Diamond and Pearl opening theme and Dylan saying Po-Kay-mon... not the same pronunciation, so either PUSA is saying it wrong or the Sprouse twins are saying it wrong.

EDIT: Bennet the Sage is our tie breaker. He pronounces it the same way PUSA does.
 
Re: Sprouse brothers to star in Pokémon commercial: Advertisement to feature HeartGol

An E with an accent over it means it's pronounced "ay".
 
Re: Sprouse brothers to star in Pokémon commercial: Advertisement to feature HeartGol

Where's the pronunciation talk coming from? I don't see a link to a video in that article. Anyway, all I can manage to this is a "meh". The Disney kids/young adults fail to impress, and these two are no less generic than any of the others.

I don't think I've even seen a Pokémon commercial on television in years. The movie theatres around here play them sometimes as a new game release approaches (I remember seeing a few for Platinum), but that's about it.
 
Re: Sprouse brothers to star in Pokémon commercial: Advertisement to feature HeartGol

I know, but it's the emphasis that is wrong.
 
Re: Sprouse brothers to star in Pokémon commercial: Advertisement to feature HeartGol

Despite what some people think, I like them doing it. It brings some new fans who may have never heard of Pokemon.

I hope no one says that the new generation of Pokemon fans will be nooby because of this. We were all nooby at some point of our internet experience. No matter how long or short. D:
 
Re: Sprouse brothers to star in Pokémon commercial: Advertisement to feature HeartGol

I'm mostly surprised TCPi was willing to invest as much in an ad as those two might cost (no doubt Disney decides the fee). Pokémon kind of sells itself these days, but I guess a few TV spots couldn't hurt.
 
Re: Sprouse brothers to star in Pokémon commercial: Advertisement to feature HeartGol

It actually pained me to watch that >_>

On that note, when was the last time Pokemon ever got a commercial with real people in it? Outside of Japan, that is.

And "Po-Kay-mon" isn't how I would pronounce it but w/e.
 
Re: Sprouse brothers to star in Pokémon commercial: Advertisement to feature HeartGol

Im pretty sure, if you listen to the first english theme song, they emphasize more on the "kay"

"Po-kay-mon! Its you and me."
Not "Po-key-mon!"
 
Re: Sprouse brothers to star in Pokémon commercial: Advertisement to feature HeartGol

Yes, but what they did thar was overkill >_>

We get loads here in Britain. I presume they're real people, not androids.
 
Re: Sprouse brothers to star in Pokémon commercial: Advertisement to feature HeartGol

one this isnt pokemon news and to clarify the e with the accent is poke-ei-mon not poke-AY-mon
and its clear they dont kno wat theyre talking about theyre just getting money out of it
