  • I nicknamed all my Pokemon after different drugs. :P
    Delphox was Delorazepam, Blastoise was Clonazepam, Garchomp was Bromazepam, Gengar was Estazolam, Yveltal was Pyrazolam and Raichu was Zolpidem. That was the team I used to defeat the League, but right now, I'm still sorting my team out. Once I've sorted everything out, I'll probably give a new batch of nicknames to my new team. Probably also drug related. XD

  • Garchomp, bred with perfect IVs, with the mega stone, named Toothless. Toothless is my favorite character in one of my favorite movies, every time I see How To Train Your Dragon, I think of playing Pokemon. Seeing the mega of Garchomp just made the connection, the difference is that my Toothless is female.

    My Abomasnow with mega is named Jack Frost, it just fits.

    Lety is a reference to The Fast and The Furious, a Talonflame with gale wings.

    Those are the only three that really stand out. Most of the other names I choose are some reference to their original names or types, like a Scizor named Blade.

    Vaporeon(male): Azriel
    Gogoat(female): Dagny
    Pachirisu(female): Minzy
    Inkay(female): Iris
    Dragalge(female): Narcissa

    I just recently replaced half my team; so I have some leveling to do. X3
    Also, I can't decide who my 6'th team member will be. I think I want a fair-type, but I'm not sure... (I'm sort of thinking about Jigglypuff or Mawile)

  • Here are some of the nicknames I gave my Pokemon:

    Chesnaught - Espada (had wanted to name him Spike but the game wouldn't allow me :()
    Blastoise - Kamblast
    Meowstic - Feraldine (probably my favorite out of them all)
    Aegislash - Soul Calibur (so glad it was able to fit!)
    Scrafty - Yakuzed
    Malamar - Krakrau
    Salamence - Bertha
    Alakazam - Merlin (obvious)

    I tried not nicknaming the new Pokemon as much because I wanted to learn their names.

    "Espada"? Ten blades? How does that even work?!

    Breloom:
    Kogasa. Because Touhou.​

    Volcarona:
    Ulgamokou. Because Touhou.​

    Gardevoir:
    Patchouli. Because Touhou​

    Tyrantum:
    Chomper. Just Because.​

    Gengar:
    Yuyuko. Because Touhou.​

    And together, my elite six and I form...

  • I don't like to nickname my Pokemon, I think it's because I like to learn the names, but I'm called L-Meister by the other 4 kids, because my name is too short to have a real nickname.

    However, I called my Xerneas "Xerces" because I called it that in front of my mate and he demanded I name it such....

    I have a lot of Pokemon, so I'll just talk about my current team. My Trevenant is named Trelawny after Professor Trelawny from Harry Potter. Thought it sounded like a good name for a Grass type. LAWN. Get it? My Houndoom is named Aiden just because it's a more alternative name. My Dragalge is named Serenade because it's a beautiful Pokemon, like a serenade. Barbaracle is named God Forsaken. Have you seen it? Hands down the best name I've given in this game.

    Granbull and Pidgeot were obtained through Wonder Trade with no names sadly, but if I were to name them, they'd be Gracie and Poncho respectively. I just call them that in my head even though I can't actually put the name there.

    My current party:

    Lapras - Poseidon (God of the Sea)

    Lucario - Kratos (God of War)

    Salamence - Alduin (World-Eater of Skyrim)

    Blaziken - he was the Mystery Gift Torchic, so I couldn't rename him.

    Sylveon - Erana - No particular reason, just a feminine name for the only girl on my team.

    Sneasel - not sure if he'll be a permanent party member, but I needed a Dark-type, so he's on a trial run. :)
