4th Gen Did you nickname your starter?

[Shiny_Flareon]

Hey! I want to know who nicknamed their starter pokemon.
I nicknamed my turtwig twiggy, i nicked my bulbasaur Black, And my torchick was uhh... Torchick XD.

 

[Hooh]

Never did, I was dumb little child and didn't care about nicknames.

 

[pikakitten]

Sinnoh: Turtwig, Twiggy xD

Johto: First time, Cyndaquil: Blaze; Second, Chikorita: Brittany

 

[Seki]

I never really nickname my Pokemon, because I am bad in this kind of things.

 

[PikachuAddict]

I usually nickname my starter. In the FireRed I just nicknamed my Bulbasaur Bulbasir. My Cyndaquil is Flame.

 

[curiousnathan]

Nope, I hardly ever nickname my Pokemon; so the starters I chose in each region aren't exceptions.

 

[Rainbow Arcanine]

I did <3, I love giving my Pokemon nicknames that are cute and simple :3. If I remember correctly, I called my Turtwig Basil and my Totodile Jaws <33.

 

[Hikamaru]

No, I always tend to never nickname my team and my starter is no exception.

 

[Brendino]

Yes, in Platinum my Piplup was nicknamed Czar, and my Cyndaquil was nicknamed Ty (both names given with their final evolution in mind).

 

[SoraTheTruth]

i nicknamed my Chimchar SausageBun

 

[mishy.]

Infernape - Razu. Named it after a friend of mine
Empoleon - Genis. named it after a character in Tales of Symphonia
Torterra - Tiny. Named it that because... well Oxymoron or whatever.
Feraligatr - Cooly. For Nostaglia.

Never got a Typhosion or Meganium as starters for this generation. Or at least as my very first Pokemon.

 

[Kikaito plush]

I named my chikorita Chikentika for the heck of it
I named Turtwig Ben after a friend

 

[Deceit]

I only nickname starters if I already have an idea for the name, or I am going to use it in game. If not, I usually just give it its normal name.

 

[Mama-Mamo]

I nickname during my play through of games. (:

My starter in HeartGold was a Chikorita named Mint. ^_^

 

[CourageHound]

I always name my starter(all of my pokemon really), it feels right that way. I named my chimchar Cinder.

 

[Rivvon]

Pengu the Piplup, because penguins.
And Cutey the Chikorita, because that's what I named my Chikorita in Crystal!

 

[Seth Rollins]

No. I never nickname my Pokemons, only Pikachu, if I get one I nickname him Pika xD.

 

[Miss Anne Thrope]

I named my Totodile Torrent.

 

[Bounsweet]

I never ever used to name my Pokemon, but now I'm obsessed with nicknames! They have to have them, even if they're the dumbest most boring names you can imagine.

I haven't played through any Gen IV games in quite a while (though I want to do Diamond Version really soon), where I'll definitely pick Piplup and perhaps name it... Sashimi? I named my Samurott that in Gen V and loved it, it goes excellent with most Water-types cx

In HGSS I always pick Chikorita, and I almost always end up nicknaming it the stereotypical Sakura, which is perfect for Meganium!​

 

[Sweets Witch]

In 2nd gen my Totodile was (and will always be) Crocogator, but I could never really come up with anything good enough for the others.
