From the looks of the English footage of the game, the spelling "Yo-kai" (with a lower-case k) appears to be used, at the least regarding the characters themselves (hard to tell if the actual title uses this as both Nintendo and the anime's English trailer use all-caps).

: It's also more logical since the hyphen is there to indicate the long vowel sound. It's also used in official sources like https://twitter.com/YokaiWatchNews, http://yo-kai.nintendo.com/ and the official English game trailer with the aformentioned game footage: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=opal2gPHAD4. Seems to be pretty clear that ''Yo-kai Watch'' is the official and proper way to spell it and not ''Yo-Kai Watch'' as the Wikipedia article is titled as of this writing. I can't move the current article to the proper title because [[Yo-kai Watch]] already exists, as a redirect to the article. Would be nice for someone who can move it to do that. ^_^; [[User:GonbeFAN|GonbeFAN]] ([[User talk:GonbeFAN|talk]]) 18:23, 10 October 2015 (UTC)

Spelling of Yo-kai

From the looks of the English footage of the game, the spelling "Yo-kai" (with a lower-case k) appears to be used, at the least regarding the characters themselves (hard to tell if the actual title uses this as both Nintendo and the anime's English trailer use all-caps).
