What kind of nickname are you, how do you represent the Pokémon you do~
By now, some of you may have played through the games and already caught many Pokémon. For now, I'm not interested in what your team is or how many you've caught; but what you've named them. Considering B/W has quite a diverse range of Pokémon, there are many nicknames you can come up with. Before you respond, be aware that there is a thread in Pokémon General Gaming, asking why you nickname Pokémon in general, if you want to discuss that, then do so in that thread - this thread is only based on what you've nicknamed certain B/W Pokémon. - or plan to nickname.
Now, what are some of the most interesting names you've named your B/W Pokémon? Have you maybe called something a certain way because you dislike its Japanese name and you prefer the fan-made name? Or maybe another reason? If you haven't played the games, what do you plan to nickname certain Pokemon? Maybe call Victini "victory" because it represents that? Or are you planning to name certain Pokémon based on someone you know what you think represents that Pokémon? Alternatively, you could just give them a Syd nickname. |
I name them actual names like Jared, Tom or Sally etc.,

I have a bunch of planned nick-names. For starters, I plan on naming my bachura after you, tbh. xD
I have more epic names picked out, these are some Ive thought of. http://floatzel.net/pokemon/black-white/sprites/images/618.png Maggyo will become Flounderp. http://floatzel.net/pokemon/black-white/sprites/images/568.pnghttp://floatzel.net/pokemon/black-white/sprites/images/569.png This will become Garbagemon until I think of something more creative. http://floatzel.net/pokemon/black-white/sprites/images/582.png http://floatzel.net/pokemon/black-white/sprites/images/583.pnghttp://floatzel.net/pokemon/black-white/sprites/images/584.png Whenever I catch one of these, It will either be dubbed Dairy Queen or Baskin Robbins. xD |

80's. For the 80's disco. I havent caught one yet but I'm in the route I think they appear in. http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/1/10/Spr_5b_579.png Bloby. It's a floating blob. http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/0/08/Spr_5b_531.png Medic. It's the healer Pokemon. http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/5/55/501.png Clam. Look at the body. I also might make a joke team with themed names. One I made was a joke team of a bunch of Machamp. "We will", "Own You", "Because", "We", "Rock". It was a joke team with all the exact same stats and movesets. The sixth member of that team was "MACHAMP" the Hitmontop. |
Churine is forever Seed bby<3 :) That is all! -flies away-

Usually I name my Pokemon after my fanfic characters, but this time I might go for an anime/manga theme this time. Already named my Pokemon after Fullmetal Alchemist characters in Emerald, so I might go for Black Cat for B/W. Pretty much this is how I'll name my planned Pokemon team:
http://floatzel.net/pokemon/black-white/sprites/images/503.png Train, because he's the main character in Black Cat and this guy is my starter. :P http://floatzel.net/pokemon/black-white/sprites/images/553.png Sven, only because of the Pokemon looking cool with glasses. :P http://floatzel.net/pokemon/black-white/sprites/images/523.png Eve, because it's a pretty name and this Pokemon is pretty. http://floatzel.net/pokemon/black-white/sprites/images/620.png Jenos, because this Pokemon is very fierce. http://floatzel.net/pokemon/black-white/sprites/images/567.png Creed, only because this Pokemon looks crazy, haha. http://floatzel.net/pokemon/black-white/sprites/images/609.png Kyoko, because the character can use fire attacks, and this Pokemon is a fire type, so yeah. :P |
I don't nickname Pokemon. :P
Except one (family). http://pokejungle.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/574.pnghttp://pokejungle.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/575.pnghttp://pokejungle.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/576.png Nickname: Gaga It's the Lady Gaga of Pokemon. :D |
http://veekun.com:81/dex/media/black-white/593.png
Lear Because he is royalty, and obviously a king, which reminds me of Shakespeare's King Lear. The ghost typing influences this also, not that Lear is ever a ghost but because of the themes of the entire play. http://veekun.com:81/dex/media/black-white/shiny/623.png Megazord Named after Power Rangers! :D http://veekun.com:81/dex/media/black-white/558.png Nathaniel I had a hermit crab named Nathaniel, who was named after Nathaniel from War of the Worlds. I also had Beth and The Journalist, so if it was a girl it would be Beth, and I might just call it Journalist anyway. http://veekun.com:81/dex/media/black-white/601.png Clockwork Obvious reasons, I would think. http://veekun.com:81/dex/media/black-white/565.png Terrorpin Because he's a turtle, but he is scary. :3 http://veekun.com:81/dex/media/black-white/579.png Jellol Named after a fakemon I created; the two don't really share any features besides the fact they're jelly-like. |
I always nickname my starters somthing like one of there powefullest moves, I called my Typlosion in SS Eruption and I want to change my Daikenki's name to HydroCannon but on the japanese game theres not enough space for the letters so ima wait for it to be released here :)

Here are some nicknames I thought up for some of the Isshu Pokemon (though I may not use any of them):
Emboar: Porky (after Porky Pig from Looney Tunes) Daikenki: Kenshi/Battousai (after the main character in Rurouni Kenshin/Samurai X) Muurando: Sugar (after my sister's dog) Yanakki: Elvis (after Elvis Presley because he has Elvis' hairdo) Kenhorou: RoadRunner (after the Roadrunner in Looney Tunes) Zeburaika: Marty (after the zebra in the Madagascar movies) Gigaiasu: Chromastone (after the alien in Ben 10: Alien Force) Doryuuzu: Grand Mole (after Neo-Spacian Grand Mole from Yu-Gi-Oh! GX) Zuruzukin: Eminem (after the rapper/singer because both look gangster) Desukan: Ramses (after the Egyptian pharaoh) Abagoora: Crush (after the Finding Nemo character) Rankurusu: Gummy Bear (it looks like one!) Shikijika/Mebukijika: Bambi (after the Disney character) Shubarugo: Lancelot (because it's based on a knight) Shandera: Skellington (after Jack Skellington from The Nightmare Before Christmas) Agirudaa: Kakashi (after the Naruto character because their faces are hidden) More to come. |

Zurukuzin shall be named!!! "Lookin' like a foo' wit yo pants on the ground" |
What a odd title, I think the grammar is off...What Nickname are you, lol, oh sorry I just had to say this
Now for nicknames: Tsutarja: Ivyss (Sounds like Abyss and has ivy in it :) ) Pokabu: Poka (short for Pokabu ) Majimaru: Nami if it's a female (I want a female one) or Umi if Male (They both mean Sea in Japanese) I still have to think of more... |
Since, I have full team down. Nicknames have all been given to them, so now I will present these Five-letter nicknames.
Jaroda = Smug- Everyone should know why he is named this. Hihidaruma = Poop- Look at the Pokedex information for Darumakka, then you will get it. Doryuuzu = DRILL- Originally I was supposed to have a Gigaiasu named GIGA, along with a other Pokemon named BREAK, so put those together and get GIGA DRILL BREAK. Abagora = Elder- Elder Turtle, not original blah blah blah. Denchura = 4Ever- Named this little girl after Forever, because Forever loves Denchura. Sazando = High- Little dumb name, the name is supposed to make fun that this guy evolves to his final stage at Level 64. |

But I think I will keep this http://pokejungle.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/575.png called Train Wreck coz thast is what it looks like. http://pokejungle.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/576.png Lady Gaga is my planned nickname as she can be a male. http://pokejungle.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/574.pngBrittany.. Thought it up on the spot. Cute name for a cute pokemon. Jarooda shall be called "Empress" Because she is a royal pokemon. |
Hmm...as of right now, here are my planned nicknames for some Generation V Pokemon:
http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/d/db/Spr_5b_500.png Enbuoo - Razorback. Alternate name for a boar. I decided on this and finalized it long ago when Pokabu was first revealed. http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/5/53/Spr_5b_503.png Daikenki - I'm still undecided. Maybe Samurotter or Daikenki... http://veekun.com:81/dex/media/black-white/shiny/497.png Jaroda - Poison Ivy (Poison implies a threat, and ivy...is ivy, I guess.) Monkey trio - Oakey, Soakey, and Smokey. They sound so cute! :) Courtesy of BleuVII Might nickname the garbage Pokemon Garbagiga, still undecided... Courtesy of #Emochu. Here some other names I might use should they not turn out as actual English names: Quote:
Iront/Aianto - possibly Antantium. Courtesy of elarmasecreta. http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/5/5e/Spr_5b_625.png Kirikizan - possibly Huricanger/Huracanger (reference to Ninpuu Sentai Hurricanger). Always wanted to use that name in some context. http://veekun.com:81/dex/media/black-white/621.png Crimgan - possibly SkulDrache (means 'skull dragon', as it seems to have rib-like structures on its abdomen). http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/a/a2/Spr_5b_587.png Emonga - possibly Sparky http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/5/5d/Spr_5b_612.png Ononokusu - Battle-Axe or Axehead; most likely the first one due to the axe-shaped tusks. Something with the word "axe" in it, for sure. Not nicknaming any of the legendaries, AFAIK right now. ~LOL at the thread title reference...! |
Pokabu: Porkchops
Tsutaja: Smugleaf Miji(...): Sadface |

http://floatzel.net/pokemon/black-white/sprites/images/574.pnghttp://floatzel.net/pokemon/black-white/sprites/images/575.pnghttp://floatzel.net/pokemon/black-white/sprites/images/576.png
Lots of people seem to use Lady Gaga for these three, lmao. But names that I see fit would be something like Lollipop. :P http://floatzel.net/pokemon/black-white/sprites/images/498.pnghttp://floatzel.net/pokemon/black-white/sprites/images/499.png I'm sure almost everyone will use Porky for Pokabu... and I was going to too, but I think Hammy looks better, especially for Pokabu's second evolution (which I previously hated ><) http://floatzel.net/pokemon/black-white/sprites/images/509.pnghttp://floatzel.net/pokemon/black-white/sprites/images/510.png The only name that I think fits these Pokemon is Violet. It just...looks right. ^^' http://floatzel.net/pokemon/black-white/sprites/images/543.pnghttp://floatzel.net/pokemon/black-white/sprites/images/544.pnghttp://floatzel.net/pokemon/black-white/sprites/images/545.png Oh how I adore this line...<3 Rugby seems to be the best name for them, IMO. :3 http://floatzel.net/pokemon/black-white/sprites/images/547.png Omgomgomgomgomg, the best Grass type in Gen 5~ I don't know why, but when I see this Pokemon, I automatically think...Caramel. <3 http://floatzel.net/pokemon/black-white/sprites/images/607.pnghttp://floatzel.net/pokemon/black-white/sprites/images/608.pnghttp://floatzel.net/pokemon/black-white/sprites/images/609.png A name that best fits this line for me is definitely Ebony. It looks good on them. :> http://floatzel.net/pokemon/black-white/sprites/images/629.pnghttp://floatzel.net/pokemon/black-white/sprites/images/630.png <33333333333 Freakin... AWESOME. ANYWAYS, the best name for them would be, like...Velma or something, lmao. It's just that when I look at the final evolution, Velma is what comes to mind. x3 And those are the nicknames I see that fit best for my favorite 5th gen pokes. :> |
Well lets see,
http://veekun.com:81/dex/media/black-white/612.png I named this guy Drago. I think it's obvious why. http://veekun.com:81/dex/media/black-white/500.png Feu, which is "fire" in French. http://veekun.com:81/dex/media/black-white/555-unblue.png Daru, just seemed to fit considering it's in its Japanese name. http://veekun.com:81/dex/media/black-white/553.png Darko, it's a Dark type...Darko sounded cool haha. http://veekun.com:81/dex/media/black-white/604.png Tryda, which is a word in a different language... I can't remember which word nor the language. XD What I did for quite a few of my Pokemon is used a word that represents them in some way and translated it into a different language. http://veekun.com:81/dex/media/black-white/619.png Named this one Pooh, from Winnie the Pooh haha. http://veekun.com:81/dex/media/black-white/621.png Dreko, part of "Dragon" in another language. http://veekun.com:81/dex/media/black-white/622.png Vaerg, if I remember right that was "Guardian" in another language. http://veekun.com:81/dex/media/black-white/633.png Heima, which is "at home" in Icelandic. For some reason, reminded me of Iceland and Sigur Ros, and I thought it'd be a suitable name. :P http://veekun.com:81/dex/media/black-white/523.png Zebua, a bit of a reworked version of it's name's first few letters in Japanese, thought it sounded cool. -------- There's quite a few others but I don't feel like listing them all. :P |
I'm naming my Ononokuso Drake after the E4 member of Hoenn and it's also dragon in a another language(I think German or some sort of Northern Europe language).
|
I've nicknamed all my Pokemon in Black, and I'll go through a few that I can explain.
Like "Penny" the Shimama. I nicknamed her that because of her Electric typing, and if she was male, I would have named her "Bolt". Since she's female, I went with a female character from the same movie, and so Penny. There's also my Dageki, named "Blue". That was the only name I could think of at the time, because of its skin color. Then I realized that Dageki looks like my manager at work, so I'm going to change Blue's nickname to match my manager. When I get White in English, my Pokemon are going to have the nicknames that I give my main Pokemon on all my games since FireRed. "Andrew" for my Mijumaru, "Ender" for my Tsutarja, and "Angel" for my Meguroco. It's just something that I do, and I don't plan on changing that tradition. I don't know about the rest of my team, but those three are planned on being on it. |
