Can you guys please stop putting these in the trivia sections:

*Pokémon X's cry sounds like it's saying "_________"

They are not. So stop putting that in there. It's fine to put what sort of sound effects, but please for the love of God, no english phrases.

The only exception to this is Chatot's cry.
 
Chatot cannot be an exception. Either they all stay or they all go. And in this case, they would all go.

Like I said on Jupiter. Why is it okay for one and not some? About their hair looking like a Pokemon.
 
Chatot cannot be an exception. Either they all stay or they all go. And in this case, they would all go.

Chatot is an exception because it's actually saying "Perapuu" as it's cry. It's an integral part of Chatot's gimmick of being able to mimic sounds. It's what sets it apart from other Pokémon. Hence what the Trivia section is there for!

It's fine to mention "Pokémon X sounds like a (insert sound effect)" but actual phrases should be omitted because that's totally up to interpretation.

Cries that sound similar or exactly the same to unrelated Pokémon could be covered under their respective trivia sections.
 
You can't say Chatot is saying it's name if you won't let Clefairy's article say it's saying it's name.
 
See? It's an opinion it's saying it's name. You can't say it is because it's not entirely. true.
 
Far as I'm concerned, if you listen really closely you can hear every Pokémon saying its Japanese name.

Charizard says Lizardon.
 
Jynx is obviously Hypno's cry slowed way down. Because Gen I had room for very few cries.
