That's what people from California think NYC sounds like.
The worst fake NYC accent is that one that Meowth has. I have never heard ANYONE who sounds like that in my life.
IDK maybe that's how Pica sounds but she pretends she can't talk around humans.
@futurebird @catmisgivings I'm from California and i love hearing people from New York saying things like "dogs" and "coffee" - it makes me chuckle.

I can't even explain what's going on out there. Here is a sample of what sounds like "a heavy accent" to my ear.

I have a spreadsheet of accents that catch my ear for being "natural" but distinctive. Minor obsession.

Wait... wait... wait...
Meowth is supposed to have a New York accent????
Mind. Blown.
I thought it was just "made up cat accent."

@futurebird @catmisgivings The (I think NYC) accent that really surprised me, when I heard him for the first time, was Isaac Asimov. I just hadn't expected him to sound like a cabbie from some film.

I like the way both of them say "robits" ... this seems to be going away. But it was common in US English a generation ago.

@futurebird @darkling @catmisgivings I have never in my lifetime heard anyone in person (or on live/modern TV) say "robit" but wow they sure said it a lot on a lot of really old TV/movies. I guess Asimov was a product of such times, so he certainly would have heard it that way a lot.
I just... I don't understand where that pronunciation even came from. It's literally spelled rob*ot, not robi*it... How do you just suddenly randomly change an 'o' to an 'i' every time despite seeing how it's spelled?

@nazokiyoubinbou @darkling @catmisgivings
I wonder if it was a product of the clipped high diction of "radio voice" where everything was said with a kind of clarity that was meant to overcome static?
