I did on Silver...there is a great reason why I never nickname my Pokemon on Emerald and Diamond. And here it is:

Selma - Pidgeot
Reddy - Shiny Gyarados
Milly - Dragonite
Mark - Lugia
Mick - Ho-Oh
Mike - Feraligatr

Oh dear. My Silver's internal battery has died so my Pokemon have died with those names...I can never put through any of my Pokemon through terror like that again.

i always give all of my pokemon nicnames. unless i catch them accidentaly, in the safari zone or something. i also cant stand not being able to nickname the pokemon that i get in a trade. sometimes it keeps me from doing the gts.

I usually nickname the Pokémon I plan to use in my team for a longer time.
Some names are random, some are based on their Japanese name.

Empoleon- Stefan
Pikachu- CHuI (I name all my Pichus, Pikachus and Raichus like that)
Roserade- Blumi (the German word "Blume" means flower)
Infernape- Hikki (because of Chimchar's Japanese name)
Staraptor- Mukki (from its Japanese name once again)
Luxray- Kiki
Floatzel- Ken
Togekiss- Jimmy

Oh my gosh! I named my Luxray Kiki!!! That is too weird!

I nickname the Pokemon that aren't so dear to me. I use insanely random nicknames like...

Blissey=Jimulah
Carvanha=Vancarhaha
Sandshrew=Tonxedrin
Meowth=Mentosisou
Drowzee=Toejamlyze.

I could go on with this. These nicknames will be passed around.

I nickname most all my Pokemon out of habit. If I can't think of anything, I just retype the name/final evolutions name properly instead of all caps. |D

I remember reading somewhere that it made the Pokemon happier or something when I was a kid and I wanted them happiness evoltions, dangit. Plus, if I have duplicates, it makes things easier for my lazy self. And I also think about if I called all my pets "Dog," "Bird," "Bird," and "Fish." Which would be a little weird.

I do! I do! ♥

Marowak ~ Cubby (♥)

Gengar ~ Genny

Lapras ~ Lappy

Wobbuffet ~ Wobby

Porygon 2 ~ Porry

Aerodactyle ~ Daccy


Hahaha, simple and predictable, I know. But after I've been training them for a while, I feel like they deserve a little more individuality. Plus the names sound SO adorable. <3 (well, to me anyways ♥)
