I always give a nickname to all of my pokemon. Because then they're special, they're not just some random pokemon, it's MY pokemon.
:3 |
i like to stick with the names they were originally givin it just feels better
|
I named my Gardevoir Helena! Because she's so beautiful! (If you know Greek myths you know why I named her Helena...)
Kyogre-Seashore Dialga-Dragonhead Roselia with mind reader-RoseReader Groudon-EarthShake Mewtwo-Anti-Mew Torterra-Terrapin(SUPER MARIO RPG LOL!!!) Gliscor-Batman |
Sometimes I give my Pokemon nicknames that sound like their original names:
Bastiodon: Bastion Cradily: Dilan (i'm particularly proud of this lol don't know why) Lucario: Luca Although some of them are competely random, i mean, wtf, i called my Cranidos, Larry! XD |
I give nicknames to those where I find it's a good nickname for them.
Starly: Starlight Turtwig: Turk Bellsprout: Bellend Weepingbell: Weepingballs Victrebell: Victrebollocks |
I like to give pokemon nicknames..
I started a pokemon ruby game recently [Duo Species Challenge] And I named my Wingull --- Latios. Lol. Alakazam --- PSYCHO Gardevoir --- PSY-FI. :D |
I never nickname my Pokémon. Dunno why, though, it just doesn't feel right.
|
I feel that certain Pokemon are screaming for nicknames. Or it could be because I just don't like the name period. I nickname probably 7% of my Pokemon. Afterall, they are my sweeties, something has to separate them from the rest of those darn trainers you battle every day. Here are a few I can wiggle out of my head for the moment. Empoleon ~ Mizuru Luxray ~ Lust Driftloon ~ Hollow Lopunny ~ Caramel or Karma (switching between the two.) Leafeon ~ Leafia I only like names with a meaning. I'm not fond of the names people give their Pokemon, like something funny or unreasonable. Or something just wrong. But its their business. >.> |
I usually do nickname my Pokémon, but sometimes I don't... it all depends to be honest ^^;

I always named my pokémon since when I first started playing. The only time I wont name my pokémon is when they are legendary, but sometimes I do name my legendaries.
My favorite nicknames: (In Emerald) Belle or Bella, my Gardevoir (NOT because of the "Twilight" series, but because the names mean "beautiful") Lovetta, my Meganium Lucy, my Chansey Scarlett, my Vulpix Metroid, my Beldum Puddin, my Arcanine Luna-Mizu, my Lapras Victoria, my Absol Ada Lyn, Ballet, Brink, Dolly, Lola Lovey, Mod, Nadine Lae, and Serina, my female Eevees (In Pearl) Exy, my Meowth (I went to a website that had a chat thing and "Exy" was an username and I just fell inlove with the name) Windee, my Pidgeot (my first caught pokémon ever was a pidgy and I always named them something that had "wind" in the name) Pimp Ruto, my Empoleon Madeusa, my Mitlotic Skipper, my Swampert Fabio, my Turtwig Ciro, my Espeon Meany, my Gyarados Jinx, my Alakazam Xal Vador, my Luxray Havic, my Rotom Bety Lou, my Miltank Lastat, my Feebas Miltrude, my Glaceon Chu, my Leafeon Lovely Lil, my Umbreon Korn Cobe, my Nuzleaf Elmo, my Mesprit Spacer, my Palkia Topsy, my Giratina Lectro, my Raikou Hydro, my Suicune and finaly my last favorite nickname Pyro, my Entei Sorry if that is a long list. I hope that someone finds them okay and what not. |
Here is my main team
Absol- Cahos Scisor- DScythe Gardevoir-Gravity Snorlax- RedM&M Altaria- Bluesky Charizard- Inferno |
I rarely give nick names and the owns I give the nicknames to always seem to later be in my team and are my favorite
josiah=blazeakanin ace=straptor sparkey=pichachu |
The only one I ever really nicknamed was my Piplup. I called it Happyfoot, because the movie Happy Feet came out when I got it.
|
I never nickname my pokémon.
|
I usually name them the first thing that comes to mind. I just got a female Charmander on LeafGreen and decided to name her Jessie. Then I got a Pidgey and named her Cedar. But the worst and most random names of all are my Emerald names.
Lara Croft/ Blaziken Car Wax/ Alakazam SolidSnake/ Metagross SuperIgloo/ Aggron McFlurry/ Walrein Dinner/ Shelgon The all time worst name I came up with was Horny the Rhyhorn. I was in 6th grade and didn't know what it was until my friends told me...it wasn't fun. It was a girl too...and I still have her, but she's a Rhydon named Conifer now. |
Ooooo. I love nicknaming my Pokemon. Although at times I'm not creative with them I do find creating them entertaining. Here are some of the names I made for my in-game team in Platinum.
Empoleon- Misuzu Togekiss- Cootie Gliscor-Robin Frosslass- Princess Gardevoir- Diva |
I mostly give simple names to my Pokemon or sometimes I give them a bit of a name that refer to the type like my Platinum team
Apollo/Monferno Sparky/Luxio Storm/Starvia Cloud/Driftblum Tails/Buizel |
My nicknames are often alternatives to their origional names.
Treeterror-Torterra Huntkrow-Honchkrow and so on... |
I named by Buizel Tails too!! xD of course I think its probably a popular name for the litte critter. I don't usually nickname my Pokemon, only the ones that I try to have in my final team. Most of their names usually have a meaning behind them or have to do with the type of pokemon they are like some of mine are:
Leader/Staraptor Tails/Buizel Sparkle/Pikachu Sparky/Pikachu with Volt Tackle Alterio/Umbreon (has something to do with night I forget...) Helaku/Espeon (has something to do with day I think) Dragon/Charizard Ryu/Charmeleon (it means Dragon in Japanese ^_^) And I have tons more...of course I ran into a person who named all their pokemon after food..really weird but funny |
That really depends on my mood...
When I began playing Pokémon, I used the name of a Pokémon and modified it slightly. Mudkip/Kippi. It's now a lv 100 Swampert, so "Kippi" sounds ridiclous. Wingull/Winda. It's now a lv 100 Pelipper, but I still like the name. Spheal/SEAL. Yeah, that nickname sucks XD My current names are usually nouns. Charmander/Flare, for example. Then I had a period with names that just sounded fitting. Seviper/Seiwe Zubat/Zede Vileplum/Noe And then the "all girl team" period... Oddish/Miss Petal Wingull/Queen Sea Wingull/Lady Ocean So it differs a lot xD |
i name all my bird pokemon Ace
|
I don't really nickname but I do have one pokemon with a nickname, It is a Dragonite called Draco.
|
I don't nickname my Pokemon
|
And now for even more of my Pokemon nicknames!
Well first of all, I mentioned in my last post that I have a bunch of Harry Potter-themed Pokemon nicknames. Right now, I'm also in the slow process of building a list of Lord of the Rings-themed nicknames as well. So far I have: Sableye: Gollum (mentioned in my last post) Registeel: Mithril Ponyta: Shadowfax (will make more sense when he becomes a Rapidash) Torterra: Bombadil (previously named Pangaia...) Gabite: Moria Charizard: Smaug (Actually, Smaug's from The Hobbit, but close enough...) I'll add to this list once I start catching the legendaries... especially Giratina, Heatran, and the psychic trio, and maybe Dialga as well. I know exactly what to name them. ^_^ Other nicknames: Cherubi: Jubilee Monferno: Imp Luxio: Electra Gardevoir: Guinevere Gallade: Arthur Xatu: Shaman Mightyena: Ohkami (Japanese for wolf) Seviper: Slytherin (I guess I'm still working on the Harry Potter theme) Floatzel: Weasley (Likewise) Bronzor: Ferrum (Latin for iron) Teddiursa: Princess (because the "Hime" part of its Japanese name means "princess") Milotic: Dreamboat Relicanth: Granny Lanturn: Lumiere (French for light) Hypno: Mesmeria Vaporeon: Triton Jolteon: Static Flareon: Foxy Espeon: Akamaru Umbreon: Black Cat Leafeon: Leif Glaceon: Jackfrost Rotom: Robomaster Aipom: Dexter |
i find when i am trading, pokemon with nicknames dont trade as well as one without
as alot of people like them to be UT, mainly on shinys, events, etc... so i keep all mine without nicknames, as i think it ruins there value if at some point i want to trade them. |
