5th Gen What did you nickname your Liberty Pass Victini?

[Otamajakushi]

The Liberty Pass was special in that it allowed the player to capture, in their game, the mythical Pokemon Victini. Events like these are/were super-duper rare, because most of the time they were either not released or Japan-only. On top of that, most event Pokemon can't be renamed. (I hope that changes in the future!)

So, what did you end up naming your Victini back in the day?

I went with low-key nicknames. I called one of my Victory and the other Voyager.

I got my copy of black the day after the event ended... I was so crushed...

But I would have named him Vic, because I am so clever and all my names have always been the first couple letters of their name. Char, Squirt, Bulb, etc...

 

[Otamajakushi]

I've seen a lot of people name their Victini Vic, and there's nothing wrong with that name. In hindsight, I think I would have also liked to name it Vivi, from Final Fantasy IX, or Valiance (a cool word.)

I wonder if anyone gave theirs a name that didn't start with V.

 

[Nah]

I never nicknamed it actually. I rarely nickname my Pokemon really, and was just glad I was able to do the event, though I did get White the day it released.

Why Voyager though?

Why Voyager though?

I'm a Trekkie and it was a spur of the moment thing. I kind of still like the name and it would make sense if I actually used the Victini on a team.

 

[Starry Windy]

I decided to name my Victini as Victi-Ace, because I think Victi-Ace might be rhyming with a certain shampoo's main features back in the day, and I also wanted Victini to become my ace as well, which is why "Ace" is included as last part of my Victini's nickname.

I nicknamed that Victini "MissingNo" as it is pokemon 000 and that is missingNo number.

 

[Otamajakushi]

I nicknamed that Victini "MissingNo" as it is pokemon 000 and that is missingNo number.

I remember when the game came out and I was legitimately confused when Victini was #000 instead of at the very end, like most other legendaries. I totally didn't mind, but it was certainly different. I wouldn't be surprised if more people named theirs MissingNo to make a similar reference!

 

[Jay]

I named my Victini Pulsar. I can't even remember why, but that right there is the name I went with.

Something to do with a star, I cannot remember for the life of me.

 

[Rivvon]

I nicknamed mine Bang. I was really into Blazblue at the time and I felt that Victini's signature attacks were something that Bang Shishigami would do if he was a Pokémon, ha ha.

I'm not sure what I'd name one now if I got the chance, but I do wish we could go back to being able to nickname event legendaries...

 

[RedJ]

I named mine Victor because I was feeling especially creative at the time. I had planned to change it at one point, but I ended up forgetting about that before trading it over to White 2 and restarting White, so the name stayed.

 

[Hikamaru]

I never caught it, but even if I did I probably wouldn't have nicknamed it.

 

[Sydian]

In my Japanese White, I named it Kaori. In Black, I named it AppleBunny. :) I never got around to using the one from Black until like...last year I think? I put it on my team in OmegaRuby for one of the challenge events.

 

[TheLegendaryGuy]

i named my victini "PYROMONSTER" in black . before playing black, in hacked gba games, i cot victini twice, and both of the time, i named it vicsquirrel.. heh heh bcoz it looks a lot like a squirrel

 

[Xertified]

I named him Naruto.

I just thought that it is fitting.
