"Lugia - correct pronunciation!"
#PokemonGO: Hi,during my raids I've noticed that a lot of players are pronouncing Lugia as he is a second cousin of Super Mario green mushroom hero = Luigi:) In the beginning I didn't care but then i thought "why don't I write it here just in case somebody is wondering and willing to learn". So here it goes:Usually if "G" precedes the non-front vowel ⟨they are = a o u) it becomes the voiced velar plosive [ɡ] - example "Golf" - hard G // while when it precedes they i,e,y it may become a fricative or affricate - example "Genesis" - soft G.Lugia is an exception to the rule and the "G" is hard (as in God, Goat, Golf)Lugia is then pronounced "Loo-gee-uh"Br, J via /r/TheSilphRoad http://ift.tt/2i89P1e
