Giving nicknames to your Pokémon is fun. It's better than having to see their names repeated over and over again. Giving nicknames to your Pokémon can also be a way to set your Pokémon apart from others of its species, IMO.
i don't really name my pokemon. partly because i have no imagination when it comes to names, plus i actually like the majority of the original names for pokemon.
when trading pokemon you can't change the name of the pokemon you received. i remember i was looking for a cranidos and found one but the nickname read "dick head". i could have traded for it but i didn't wanna pokemon called dick head.
