I always pick names at random anyway. I use Andrew sometimes but my last two characters were called Drake and Lisa lol.

Totally forgot this thread existed btw.

I always feel weird using a different name, occasionally I used to call myself Ash or Red but now it just has to be Charlie or my character feels wrong.

I finally found a name which I'm probably gonna use more often for my chars which is YOH, I was so indecisive all the time so I just used different names. And AAAAA for Yellow LOL.

I thought this thread was dead or something...I couldn't find it anywhere!

I remember when this was on newbie introductions, everybody struggled for conversation. I had my haitus to talk about though.

And are we talking about character names? I named myself William for Platinum, Cody for Heartgold and all my ROMS, and for Black I had the sudden whim to become female and I named myself Sophie.

Red.

In every game.

Always male.

Because the only way any of these guys can be as good as Red, is if they're alternate universe versions of Red.

There's no other explanation.

Then, on GSC, it's Red X Red?
Well, I pretty much just go with AAAAAAAAAAAA

Good thing this thing's still alive. :D

My in game name is usually my real name, or, If I'm feeling lulzy, it'll be like fart or something like that.

Mr Cat Dog · #**283** December 20th, 2011, 10:40 AM

My real name is too long for the games to comprehend (i.e. not enough characters on the screen), so normally I go for an abbreviated version. However, in Black version, I thought "screw it" and just went with Mike. Dunno why. Not even a massive fan of the name, but that's who's going around Unova now, I guess...

bobandbill · #**284** December 20th, 2011, 12:24 PM

Often I'd go with Bill or Bob or Hungry or GoCrazy. Those are the ones I usually go with anyways. Back in the day I liked going with my rl name or Silver in GSC though, heh.

Razor Leaf · #**285** December 20th, 2011, 12:43 PM

I don't remember the last time I used my real name in a game, but I'll often use a real name of a completely random person. It doesn't even matter who that person is; names just pop into my head randomly and I use them.

Alternative · #**286** December 20th, 2011, 12:49 PM

Sometimes I use my real name, sometimes I like to use Xavier because idk why it just sounds cool. Nowadays I play as the girl and usually name myself Hayley or something like that. In my current run I called myself Haruna and I have no idea why.

Meganium90 · #**287** December 20th, 2011, 04:17 PM

I go by various names in game. Plus they're both short, so they're able to fit in 7 characters. I always played as a girl, though I wouldn't mind trying out as a guy. muahaha.

SuperKirbyFan · #**288** December 20th, 2011, 04:28 PM

I always choose a guy, and then name myself Kirby.

Time to give this thing a little CPR.

Now that we're still in PGC, what's everyone's favourite Pokemon game that they've played? For me it would be SoulSilver: revamping and improving on my already-favourite region, it took full control of the DS' features and was a joy to play.

Pikapal642 · #**290** December 23rd, 2011, 03:33 PM

Gah that's a hard one to choose...On the one had, nostalgia compels me to choose Crystal because, you know, nostalgia. xD On the other hand, Soul Silver really took a great game and made it even better...Damn, so hard to choose. xD I guess I would choose Soul Silver because it has all the new features everyone loves. :P

tente2 · #**291** December 23rd, 2011, 03:58 PM

Err...well, Crystal gives me a warm sense of nostalgia (despite the fact I've only ever played the game on ROMS).

On the other hand, Emerald managed to combine both nostalgia and a little more modern features and was really "magical" to me, as cheesy as it sounds. I felt as a little kid that I was the boy in the game, walking around the mystical Heonn region.

Black was the most modern of all so it also deserves credit, but it loses brownie points because all the nostalgia is now lost. This would've been forgivable if Black was incredible and amazing, and it is to an extent, but I think if I was designing the game I could've expanded the updated graphics and features to their fullest. Maybe it's just me.

I'm really not sure...if there was a game based on the anime (any season, up to Advanced Generation--Diamond & Pearl got sort of icky) that that would be my choice.
