I just typed Pikachu in Hiragana into a translator and got "What happiness was". Although, assuming if it were a proper word outside of a name in Katakana, using Kanji would change the meaning even further. The proper spelling is Pi-Ka-Chi/Yu-U. Have to use hacked-together Hepburn, because GameFAQs in 2017 doesn't accept other char sets. The Japanese use hyphens now? I can't type Kana out on here or it will show up as (seemingly) random characters (code used to make each Kana) because the script doesn't allow for non-Romanised character sets. So, no. But those are what the individual characters look like in Hepburn. My smart-ass reply would have been "They always have?" They use an extended hyphen to double vowels. My gf is Japanese, from the south of Honshu, so I've been studying it for about three years. <cite>zebatov posted [p:879748035] in so is our ...
