Do you name your character after yourself?

[Dastr95]

Yes. I didn't in my first ever playthrough, but I've done that since. For a couple of reasons, but one of which is that there was a period where I'd finish the national Pokédexes, and I didn't want any other name as the owner of a Pokémon in my collection.

 

[ForsetiMaster06]

I usually name my character after myself, but I occasionally have named my character Brolax. I came up with the name a long time ago as my "super cool name i'll use on my future Youtube channel." That never happened, but the name has stuck as one of my go-tos for alternate names, Pokemon or otherwise.

 

[I FORGOT TO SAVE]

Both yes and no In game I do name myself my real name but I also come up with seprate names because 9 chamions all named Caynon which isnt a very common name doesnt really make sense.

Chris from kanto
Mark from johto
Sam from hoenn
Austin from Sinnoh
Michael from Unova
Jack from Kalos
Lunas From aloha
Vincent from Galar

I do change them somtimes for instance I had Chris and Sam as Ash and Max in reffence to the anime.
