Me and my brother were having a conversation about this the other day, and I thought to myself, I wonder what the members of PC will think about this?

Our conversation turned to the worst nicknames we have ever given our Pokmon in any of the games (either through lack of ideas, or choosing a name and realising how bad it was later!) I think that the grand prize of my worst Pokmon nicknames has to go to:

"Cutetwist" the Clefable
"Stingpin" the Nidoran Female
and my brother called a Mankey "DEFORM", which I thought was rather harsh! Luckily I made him change that name and I evolved it into a Primeape when he traded it to me! He also called a Hitmonchan "Hitfaceo", in a moment of madness!

What are your worst nicknames you've ever given your Pokmon, and then looked back and shuddered?

worst nickname ever on one of my games was a Venonat my brother nicknamed "Fury", which he later told me was him misspelling "furry". Funny thing was that when that venonat evolved later, it was an uber weak venomoth named "Fury" XD

After catching grudon, I named it Dinosaur. That's what I call lame and pointless...

Ohh, I tend to give a lot of my Pokemon dumb nicknames when I can't think of anything. ^_^; Like once when I caught a Magikarp, I named it 'Maggie'. That's cute, but... er, now I have a Gyarados with that name, and it just doesn't fit, lol. I also named my Tentacool 'Tenty', etc. I'll have to check my game to find more...

Oh, and bepe, please don't double post, okay? Use the Edit button if you need to make any changes. Thanks!

My friend had a reaally bad.. 0~0 erm.. name for a voltorb once... ****&****. There! Guess. 0.0 !

I also had a Espeon named Blacky. I was trying to evolve it by training it at night, but when the battle ended with an evolved Espeon, it was day! I was dissapointed too, because I really wanted an Umbreon, It being my favorite Pokemon... Darn! v0.0v

I nicknamed my Magikarp 00ber, but I didn't see the point of having it cause I already had a Gyarados and the Magikarp was in the box all the time XD

I think carefully about naming them, so I never really give any daft names
Icer is back! YAY! :shocked:

Let's see..... Oh once in blue version I think I got an eevee from bill or somethin and I nicknamed it eevee.>.< When I evolved it to Vaporeon I felt really stupid that I'd now have to live with that name.

YAMI!

^That looks painful...

He is my love! All mine! Stay away! *hiss*

I once named my Feebas, Ugly. That was before it evolved into Milotic XD
I also once named a Caterpie, Godzilla. I just found that funny at the time, but it kinda wore off when it evolves into a Butterfree. They've taught me in future not to give any nicknames to Pokemon, and to accept them for who they really are XD

I named my Yellow version Lickitung "Salty". There were a few others, like "Poot Poot" the Hoothoot and "Ursula" the Ursaring.

Nevertheless, I think that the most frustrating names are those of Pokemon you receive in trades from in-game trainers.

Pretty much any of mine. I revel in picking bad pokemon nicknames :):

Muttface - Poochena
Zapman - Voltorb
Cyberbird - Skarmory

I also called my starting pokemon on LG "coolface" (substitute cool with the worst expletive that fits :)) and soon after realised I couldn't battle my friend's Ruby, so exchanged it for Sapphire without deleting the save...

I keep picturing some 10 year old kid having his first go og LeafGreen on his birthday and saying "Mam! What's a coolface?"

lol...
