It can be pronounced 'Gi-ble' or 'Gibble'. I pronounce it like 'Gibble'. For me, the 'i' is short.

Garde -> the verb garder, which is to keep.
Voir -> to see. I'm assuming this is what the people at Gamefreak had in mind, though a second interpretation could be... Gar -> boy Devoir -> verb meaning to have to, or homework/something you have to do, depending on its use. Second one's more amusing, but I somehow doubt that it's what was intended. -------------------- |

It's actually Rai-Kou. I'm pretty sure that's the Japanese prounounciation. As for Ray-koo or Rai-ko, that's what the messed up dub did... :S
