As somebody who grew up on the anime, it's Pok-A-mon. It's in the theme song!

Is this "A" a schwa sound? Anyways, where I live, we  pronounce it with a /ɪ/ sound, like in kill, bill, etc. Also, we don't pronounce the /tʃ/ sound in the ch part of Pikachu like in the word cheese. Instead, we use the /ʃ/ sound, like in shower
