    I love giving nicknames to my Pokemon
    I usually get my nicks from WOW.
    Curious whether most people like to give nicks to their team
     
    Same, I always nickname my pokemon.

    For me I tend to base from weather

    Salamence (Hurricane)
    Garchomp (Jetstream)
    Skarmory (Clearsky)
    Tyranitar (Erosion)

    So I usually go to an online weather dictionary and pick a name that would fit nicely, If I run out, I may get them from common saying or may even name them my friends online.

    But most of the time, it's pure randomness.
     
    I give my nickames to my Pokèmon randomly.

    Take Skarmory, for example, he turned into Capriollè.
     
    I hate nicknaming my pokemon.
    I usually hate the first form's name
    but, the thing is, I usually love the final form's name.
    Therefore, I keep the name, evolve them, and voila, I have the final form =D
     
    I hate giving them nicknames, especially on older games, like Pokemon Yellow. Makes it very hard to find out which one you want. Newer ones like FR or LG makes it easier with the little icon though. Still don't like to give nicknames though. I only catch 1 of each kind of Pokemon so I have no need.
     
    I take the first few letters of pokemon names and turn them into little cutesy nicknames (i.e. Jolteon=Jojo, Charizard=Charzo, etc.) In case you were wondering, i AM a girl so don't stare at me like that.
     
    I like giving nicknames to my Pokemon. Not sure why, I just do. The only exception ish that I don't nickname my legendaries.

    Most of my ideas for nicknames come from animes that I've watched, and Japanese/Russian words that I know =D
     
    The first pokemon I had was a Cyndaquil which I named after the person who helped me with my game :).

    Once on Sapphire, I named them all after foods :).
     
    I usually name most of my Pokemon... specially my Starter <3

    I can't stand not having somthing from a trade nicknamed >.>
    It makes it seem so... bleh D=

    I remember naming my Pikachuu in yellow "Paprika" for no apparent reason xDD
    and the Origin for "Torchy" and "Torcher" came from ... maybe a Torch's flame? (This was for Torchic {Now, my Blaziken})
    Pyro, My Infernape, I remember very clearly. I named it "Pyro" because 'Pyro' meant fire (I think), and Chimchar/Monferno/Infernape was a fire-type =3
    "Charlie" came from a fic I read... I thought it was good, so I used it for my Charmander/Charmeleon/Charizard, just like the person in the fic did o_O
     
    Before my "leave from Pokemon" I used to name everything! And I was 10...so... they're kinda' wierd. Here's some examples from my Uber Sapphire game:

    Blaziken: Torch 3 (I named all Torchicks "Torch" and this was the 3rd.
    Mewtwo: Harry (Harry Potter)
    Mewtwo: Urasakia (No idea)
    Zapdos: Wat (not so wierd)
    Kyogre: MARINE (Not so wierd either)
    Rayquaza: SHARK (idk)
    Sceptile: Treepan
    Banette: Suragha
    Breloom: Cucumber
    Flygon: Valin
    Aggron: Ron
    Kyogre: Lord Drile
    Groudon: TERRA (After that girl on Teen Titans who controlls the ground named "Terra")
    Dragonite: Champ
    Alakazam: Bioshay
    Charizard: Moms
    Walrein: Spevzy
    Rayquaza: Luffy (off of One Piece)
    Pelipper: Pidders
    Groudon: LORD Ciov
    Groudon: DAWN OGRE
    Ditto: Stirk
    Ninjask: Kid
    Linoone: Streak
    Delcatty: Phoenix
    Vileplume: Fefe
    Bellossom: Fofo
    Sableye: Sajiay
    Alakazam: Mon Giock
    Wynaut: Wynikoi
    Lanturn: Licflo
    Magikarp: REMKO
    Charizard: Nightcross
    Manectric: Treeky Zap
    Registeel: Steelbo

    Lopunny (x2) - Longears and Mimiroll
    Glalie - Tricker
    Chikorita (x2) - Chiko and Chico
    Torchic - Chixxie

    Usually I give nicknames to the Pokemon I use for Super Contest
     
    I name my Pokes after

    --anime characters (Serena the Persian, Lita the Pikachu)
    --game characters (Zelda the Gardevoir, Tails the Floatzel)
    --Disney characters (Meeko the Linoone, Ariel the Vaporeon)
    --foriegn words that suit the Pokemon (Luce the Ampharos, Estrella the Staraptor)
     
    I usually name all my main Pokémon. I get names from Japanese names, the first letter of the Pokémon's names or the first thing that pops into my head.
