  • I'm my real name
    I can't even remember what my rival is called :/ It's probably Silver

    I nickname my pokemon because I hate the block captials (yes, I'm really that OCD)

    I've got:

    Female Dewgong - Isla
    Ho-oh - Calcifer
    Female Rapidash - Willow
    Male Espeon - Solo
    Male Ampharos - Sparx
    Female red Gyarados - Lantern

    My team is a mess. It really needs changed....

    Player's name is 'Drew'.

    Rival's name is 'Silver'.

    & I'm pretty sure this is the first Pokemon game I've ever played where I didn't feel like nicknaming my Pokemon. o_O So they all kept their regular names. Dunno what made me not feel like nicknaming them but oooh well. After time, maybe I'll hit up the name rater's house.

    I'm OCD about the block letters too, lol.

    My name is Zack, and my rival is Kidek. That name just reeks of evil.

    And I name all my Pokemon after German words that correspond to their gender, some fitting and some completely random.

    Bayleef - Apfel (Apple)
    Togetic - Hals (Neck, very fitting because of its giraffe neck.)
    Graveler - Gegend (District, completely unrelated.)
    Gyrados - Verlierer (Loser, I caught it as a Magicarp >.>)
    Haunter - Wolke (Cloud, it worked better for Gastly.)
    Stantler - Weinachten (Christmas) <3333

    Myself: Sabrine
    Rival: Ashes (Ash is usually my rival's name but this rival is mean so i named him Ashes instead. ^-^)
    Favorite Pokemon: (Vaporeon) I named him ALMAZEON, because ALMAZ is Diamond in another language. Once a get a female Shiny Vaporeon for a two on two battles, she'll be name LOULEEON, because LOULEE is Pearl in another language.

    Genius right?

    Normally, I just name my pokemon after their species names, just with good grammar. This means I have a team of NFEs until Goldenrod City, at least. It adds variety to the game :)

    Me: Gold
    Rival: Silver

    However, on my runthroughs where I pretend to be a PokeSpe character, they tend to have nicknames. Here's my team now:

    On Hand

    - Explotaro (Typhlosion) -
    - Poltaro (Politoed) -
    - Utaro (Sudowoodo) -
    - Sintaro (Sunflora) -
    - Aitaro (Ambipom)

    In Box

    - Mantaro (Mantine) -
    - Totaro (Togepi) -
    - Pichu (Pichu) -

  • I always go with the actual names of the characters so:
    Me: Gold
    Rival: Silver
    Pokemon: I don't give them nicknames.
