How do you name your PC storage boxes?

I don't name or organise my boxes. Whatever goes into them stays as it is. I do make sure there are no empty spaces in any filled box though. Doesn't look good.

Oh, there is one exception. I put all my legendaries and pokemon with hidden abilities into a separate box. I feel that they are special and need special treatment lols.
 
Sometimes when I feel up to it I would ocasionally feel like organising my box by their type, or usage, or whether they need training or not. etc. different things. And sooner or later I eventually mess it up only for me to maybe fix it much, much later
 
I usually don't name my PC boxes until end game or late into the game. Though, when I do name my boxes it is according to type or in a way as to sort the Pokemon that I am breeding and their eggs, etc.
 
All I do is use a few boxes left from 1 for storage of things I use, to keep them apart from PokeDex fillers.
 
I put all 600+ pokemons in numerical order.

in my older games, I started at box 1, but now I'm going to skip to about box 3/4 before I start listing out all the pokemons. Easier to organize this way.
 
I name mine by number. So, Box 1 is 1-30, and so on. I generally like to try and get one of every Pokemon in my Pokemon games, and it's easier to organize and keep track of them all that way. I'll occasionally label one "Trade" or "Teams" though, to keep track of what I need to trade over, or my team setup.
 
I've gotten lazy since my 3rd gen games. I used to always sort my Pokemon by their range of levels, but I've basically left all my boxes unsorted in the 4th and 5th gen games, aside from a few exceptions. I do have a seperate box for all the Unown on my HeartGold, and for all my legendaries in every game, but other than that, they're just all over the place. Now that I've looked through this thread, it almost inspires me to go and re-organize all of my boxes.
 
The only 4 boxes I name: Team, Events, Legendary and Shinies.

The rest of the boxes are at their generic name.
 
I'm too lazy to organize the PC.I just keep whatever pokemon lands in whatever Box but i do change the wallpapers.I might keep the legendaries in a seperate box.The only time i organized a box is when i caught all different Unowns and arranged them alphabetically in Platinum.
 
I name my boxes by family. For example, I have a Skitty and a Delcatty. I name the box Ms. Delcatty and Family. I don't put a lot of Pokemon in storage, so running out of space isn't possible.
 
I don't organize my boxes, wherever the Pokemon land they tend to stay there.

Although, in Black 2 I did organize my legendaries into one box.
 
The only time I ever organize my boxes is when I get National Dex and then I organize the boxes by thier type or habitat. For example, Magcargo and Heatran would go in Mountain section with Golem and other rock, steel, and ground types while Magmar, Blaziken, and other fire types will go under Fire section

I also keep a box for my eggs, eons and of course, my strongest Pokemon or "Stars".
 
I don't really organize my boxes.
Althought I have two organized and named boxes. One for my Unown collection and the other for the Pokemon I'm trading with other people.
 
I... don't. I don't catch enough Pokemon to fill even one box, let alone 10-15 or anything else. Filling the PokeDex has never been a goal of mine, and neither have RNGing/shiny hunting, so I only capture the Pokemon that I'm going to use on my team. And those that are given to me by NPCs, but there aren't that many of those. If I'm using anything other than 'Box 1', then that's very, very unusual for me.
 
In the past it was either by Type or (In Soul Silver) by Dex Color. But since then I've gotten lazy and haven't bothered with my boxes' names at all.
 
I keep them organized by 'Legendarys', 'Valubles', 'In Game Pokemon that are worth keeping', and 'Teams'

Yup,
