Possibly some type of storm or story. Doubts an ending like -torb (as in, Voltorb), -tord, or -tork. Cannot rule out -tors. Might be a name, especially with a vowel ending (-tori, -tora, -toru).

Not Nightor*. Nearly guarantees a vowel after the leading 'N', but what? Tried N-vowel-letter. Recognized nothing with six letters in. Could have sped over it, of course. Needs to cement that vowel.

'U', please.
 
Has to be an 'I' for the first blank, right? Leaves this: N I _ S T O R _

Draws from the following letters: BDFGIJKMPQVWXZ. Creates 14 * 14 = 196 possible words, given 'I' in the right spot. Tried them all. Remains clueless. Glanced at Cramorant to double-check its Pokedex entry, in case of being a stork. Calls it the "Gulp Pokemon", though.

Alternatively, is it backwards? Might do that for a password. Becomes _ R O T S _ _ N. ...Probably not.

Shrugs. Chooses to lock in the vowel. Lacks a better idea. Might pop up somewhere useful.

'I' as in Indeedee, please.
 
The only thing I can find that's remotely close is still one letter fewer than what's in the word...but regardless I'll guess an M please. Fingers crossed I'm not the last strike ^^;
 
Oops, so, I double checked and I added an extra letter that shouldn't be there. My bad.

Still both were hits this turn and since people will probably guess the word pretty soon since we're only missing a letter, it won't be too much of a blunder.

Code:
N I _ T O R M
Guesses: O L R C H E N T A Y S U I M
Strikes: 7 / 8

My bad
 
Aren't we on 8 strikes now then, though?
Since the S is a miss then.

Anyway, it's probably 'Nixtorm'
If we haven't been hung from the gallows yet.

Let's start my good ol' reliable. 'R', please.
 
Not Drakloak, Dragalge, Primeape, Prinplup, Trapinch, Graveler, Ursaring, Articuno, or several others. Hoped to find a direction among the first few letters. Appears to be very stuck on Pokemon, rather than items/moves/abilities. Could always be a name.

What about the ending? Cannot be -er. Views -es, -ed, and -en as likely. Cares less for -ex, -el, -ew, and -em. Not Sharpen, Ninetales...or anything eight letters, really. Does not count Frighten. Sees no way to build off that.

Lacks a great way forward. Selects the letter decent at the start, end, and maybe even a double-letter center.

'D', please.
