IIRC it's a result of being an English version of a Japanese version of two English words.
Pokemon = Pocket Monsters In Japan the English word "pocket" would be pronounced "poh-keh-toh." So over there Pokemon is pronounced "poh-keh-mohn." That sounds weird as fuck to English ears, so they tried to put an English spin on it, thus "poe-kay-mon." --- Official King of PotD You only need one T-Rex to make the point, though. ~ Samus Sedai ...

It's there so it wouldn't be pronounced "Poke-Mon".
