I don't often have to do this, but I think this would be a fun game, as it's not much of a discussion. I'm gonna move this to Pokemon Trivia. :)

Callandor April 3rd, 2013 5:50 AM

Well I guess i'll start.

Cyndaquil
Knuckles

Because both the sonic character and the pokemon are based on Echidnas.

Captain Gizmo April 13th, 2013 10:58 AM

10/10
Knuckles is a nice nickname for a Cyndaquil :)

Pokemon: Dragonite
Nickname: Mellory
Reason: My Dragonite is a female and I like the name Mellory, and my Dragonite just looks like a Mellory haha xP

GarlandDaHero April 13th, 2013 12:08 PM

7.5/10
Seems reasonable.

Pokemon: Scyther.
Nickname: Psycho.
Reason: Scyther is a mantis. Psycho Mantis is a character from Metal Gear Solid.

A3R0D4C7YL April 13th, 2013 12:32 PM

8.8/10
I see what you did there

Alakazam
Hawkings

Stephen Hawkings-Smartest man.
Alakazam-Smartest Poke'mon.

Squirrel April 13th, 2013 2:16 PM

7/10! The name is clever (heh, so punny), but it doesn't naturally suit a Pokémon like Alakazam :(

Pokémon: Roserade
Name: Sakura
Reason: Japanese for 'cherry bush' (I think!), a beautiful name for a beautiful Pokémon ♥

mozartm99 April 13th, 2013 2:44 PM

8/10 I likes

Pokemon: Oshawatt
Nickname: Jiro
Reason: Jiro is a famous sushi cheff and oshowatt evolves into Samurott which is like samurai which is japanese like sushi

GarlandDaHero April 13th, 2013 3:18 PM

6.6/10.
I don't really get it.

Pokemon: Torterra.
Nickname: ExDeath.
Reason: One of ExDeath's quotes from Dissidia is "TURTLE!". Guess what Torterra is? 8D

Squirrel April 13th, 2013 3:23 PM

Torterra is a duck, right? ;p 6/10 - I like the name and the concept but the source is pretty unknown! Also having two capital letters looks weird to me, sorry. XD

Pokémon: Bidoof
Name: Butters
Reason: Bidoof is so derpy like Butters (South Park!) and it's an awkwardly cute name for an awkwardly cute Pokémon! ♥

droomph April 14th, 2013 2:51 PM

7/10 I love it! Sounds droopy just like Bidoof :)

Okay this next one is just…something I came up with four or five years ago :p

Mediocre/Medichan

I don't even.

Xaldin April 14th, 2013 3:30 PM

4/10
Don't ever underestimate Medicham! XD

Pokemon:Lickilicky
Nickname:Akaname
Why?:There's Demon Folklore in Japan about a monster with a really long tongue.it comes in and cleans a person's bathroom with its tongue at Midnight. its called Akaname,or Grime Licker. I thought it fit Lickilicky,since it has a Long Tongue :P.

Callandor April 18th, 2013 4:11 AM

8/10


Interesting, but kinda gross.


Nickname: Vixie
Pokemon: Vulpix

Reason: Because Vixen is a name for a female fox. Also I use to watch The Fox and the Hound when I was a kid.

Firox April 18th, 2013 6:44 PM

8/10 - great name, I wish I had thought of that one, I also like the movie

one I use a lot, Black2:
Pokemon: Watchog
Nickname: Zaphod
Why?: I heard that is the name of a character from a book (don't know it), got the name from my hours of watching "Meerkat Manor", got attached to that name (also, my other weasel/otter Pokemon I give them names from the same show)

Captain Gizmo April 18th, 2013 6:51 PM

6/10

It's a nice name for a Pokemon, although I don't really get the reference, so hence the 6 rating =/

Pokemon: Herdier
Nickname: Snappy
Why?: Because Herdier reminds me a lot of my dog named Snappy. Here's a picture of him, so you can judge for yourself.

Snappy:


Herdier:

iMor April 18th, 2013 6:56 PM

8/10 - Interesting. I see the resemblance!

Pokemon - Jynx
Nickname - Mrs. Mime
Reason - I know Mr. Mime can be female but let's ignore that for this reason. I can imagine Jynx being a Pokemon wife and female version of Mr. Mime.

Callandor April 20th, 2013 3:40 AM

5/10 It's a good name, but both of those pokemon creep me out, so yeah.


Totodile
Jawesome

Because he is awesome and has big jaws. Also, my Nuzlocke Totodile is named that.

Captain Gizmo April 20th, 2013 7:31 AM

7/10

I see the pun you inserted.

Pokemon - Cyndaquil
Nickname - Cindy
Reason - Because my Cyndaquil is a female and Cindy fits in with Cyndaquil

Firox April 20th, 2013 12:26 PM

8/10 - I see the reason (and gives me a great idea for a nickname too) - at first I was thinking of Cindy Campbell from the Scary Movie series.

my White2 team:
Pokemon: Mienfoo
Nickname: Mozart
Reason: two possible ideas, the muscisian, or another of the meerkats in the Animal Planet show "Meerkat Manor" (yeah, I'm a fan of the show)

Callandor April 21st, 2013 2:49 AM

8/10 - I like it. You never see those names anymore.

Cleffa
SweetyBell

The story behind this is when the odd egg hatched in Crystal, for my Nuzlocke, I was having trouble finding a nickname. So my friend suggested Sweety Pie, and because i'm a brony that turned into SweetyBell.

cyndaquiltrainer April 23rd, 2013 2:22 PM

Adorable name for a Cleffa 6/10. But a better name for Chimecho.

Pokemon: Vulpix
Nickname: Pyro
Reason: Pyro can mean Fire, Heat and/or high temperature. Sooo I think this one's pretty obvious...

Captain Gizmo April 23rd, 2013 3:15 PM

7/10
Nice suiting name for a Vulpix

Pokemon: Tyranitar
Nickname: Gojira
Reason: Because Tyranitar reminds me of Godzilla, which is named Gojira in Japan.

Arcturus. April 23rd, 2013 3:24 PM

10/10

Pretty fitting name for a Tyranatar, I can totally see it as Godzilla.

Pokemon: Lairon
Nickname: Grunt
Reason: Lairon reminded me a lot of a character from the Mass Effect series, so I thought this was the perfect name for it.

tnfsf11 April 23rd, 2013 4:38 PM

5/10
It's a good name but the first thing I actually thought about was a Team Rocket grunt, and that's kinda lame but I'm sure you can come up with a better one :)

My turn
Pokemon: Farfetch'd
Nickname: FARTFRESH
Reason: Because why not it's so damn funny xD got the idea when I saw a Total Drama AD on Cartoon Network...

Firox April 23rd, 2013 5:17 PM

5/10 - from me, I didn't really get what the nickname means - I don't watch Total Drama AD, why I didn't get it.

My White 2:
Pokemon: Mienfoo (female, shiny)
Nickname: Maria
Reason: when I first caught her, I couldn't think of a nickname, so I just named her after my mom and my grandma. A typical Spanish name too, for me easy to remember.
