    Which do you do/think is better nicknames or no nickname?


    Personally I nickname the pokemon in my team because I think it's more fun and personal. However a lot of people just leave them as they are. What do you think?

    Empoleon - Crumb [So cute, so cute.]
    Palkia - Pearl [For obv. reasons...]
    Giratina - George [I thought it looked like a George..]
    Cresselia - [No nickname! ;0... ]
    Magcargo - Margo [^^ Hehe...]
    Volbeat - Fuzz [Why not buzz...?]

    I don't nickname mine. I never have any good names so I just leave them. I prefer the normal names anyway.

    I don't nickname my initial team (when I first start out) but I after I beat the league etc, I'll nickname my "Dream Team" Pokemon.

    I kinda do it like that ^^
    Or maybe I nickname them just before I go to Elite4. Before that, I always change my party members a lot... heh. I usually nickname my starter though. Since it's "special" :3
     
    I usually nickname my in game team, but not my competitive team.

    Awr Cute. I have a special one too. Hehe. :]
     
    I like nicknaming my in-game starter, but that's about it. (My Empoleon's name is Poseidon)
    I occasionally nickname one of the Pokemon in my competitive teams, but it's usually something vulgar. >.>
     
    Sometimes I "nickname" my Pokemon when they're fully evolved. But usually that nickname is just their regular name in lowercase letters.. (BLAZIKEN -> Blaziken) xD

    Heh. :] That's cheating. >;]
     
    I nickname the ones I use...and ones I think would be funny I.E.: Destroyer- Jigglypuff
     
    Nicknaming your pokemon gives you a bigger bond & feeling it's your pokemon in my opinion.

    I always nickname mine, and love finding interesting nicknames for them as well.
     
    I've only nicknamed my shiny pokémon.

    Bellossom : Bella
    Piidgeot: Sora
    Golem: Rocky
    Shinx: Lycan
     
    Sometimes. If it was real life I probably would, but in-game, I rarely do. Only if it's like a special egg or something.

    I did nickname a shiny once, but I've only caught about three. I called it Glimmer. =]
     
    Hahaha sometimes I do it. I named my Treecko "Geico".

    But most of the time, I prefer the actual Pokemon's name. It also helps when you need to start recognizing new Pokemon.
     
    NAh

    I don't Nickname i Find it very annoying but the funny thing is i always try to nicname something but i can never think of any names
     
    I only nickname everything I EV train...it's a waste of time nicknaming everything you catch lol
