Talk:Onett

Is it really relevant to have a bunch of information about Twoson here? Twoson has barely anything to do with this stage, and there are full paragraphs about things that have no relation to it. The two things here that stand out are Burglin' Park and Bicycle Shop. You don't see anything from Burglin' Park and there is no appearing Bicycle, let alone a shop of them. It's Turtwig A!

Pronounciation?

So, if anyone doesn't know, there's a Roblox developer known as Onett, known for making the game Bee Swarm Simulator, and he said on Discord that it's pronounced "oh-nay", so is the town's name supposed to be pronounced like that, or is it "oh-net"?

Similar to a certain Fire Emblem character whose name's pronunciation has caused countless discussions, I'm inclined to believe that the pronunciation is supposed to be based on the Japanese pronunciation; I'm aware of the differences between some pronunciations, but that's what I'm going with myself.

For an actual answer to this question, I don't know if a Roblox developer has any connection to the town from EarthBound. Aidan, the Festive Rurouni 12:29, December 9, 2020 (EST)

When I Googled "Onett", the first page of results didn't show anything besides about the town in EarthBound and the developer of Bee Swarm Sim. But, well, it's spelled English, not Inglish. ThighFish (talk) 12:51, December 9, 2020 (EST)ThighFish

I mean, Onett was never name dropped in something like the Codec Conversations or Palutena's Guidance or any piece of official Smash material that audibly pronounces it (as far as I'm aware), so it's not really that big of a big deal when it comes to Smash, anyway.

According to Tomato, the way that Japanese kana works makes it clear that Itoi intended for it to be prounounced as "Oh-net". The number theme is still in the JP version but the spelling (オネット) is intended to have the first syllable pronounced "Oh".

On a side note, I have no idea how anyone can pronounce the town "oh-nay". Omegɑ Toɑd 17:03, December 9, 2020 (EST)
