    For some reason this reminded me of my female Raichu, Thundere.
    If you can figure out what that's a reference to, you must know what TV Tropes is.
    If you don't, for the sake of your free time do NOT google Tv Tropes or go to tvtropes.org.
    I warned you. I did.

    I usually give them names in different languages, or just give them a name that goes with how they look. I have a Feraligatr named Crasher for example.

    Usually before I get my starter Pokemon, I pic a theme of which I'll name all my Pokemon. For example, when I started Platinum, I chose Dragon Ball Z as my theme, so my main team is named after DBZ stuff.

    I named all my pokemon in Japanese names/words. XD;
    Except for a few of them. The only ones I can remember that aren't Japanese are my Muk (PWN-SLIME) and my Kricketot (Mustard).

    I don't nickname legendaries that are one-of-a-kind ('cause it IS their name), but I give people names to pokemon with genders. Genderless ones are the only time I get creative with the names-

    I sometimes nickname my Pokémon.

    Floatzel - Pretzel
    Torterra - Terra
    Crobat - Kiva
    Electivire - Buzzshock

    I don't really have a theme, just plain random nicknames.
