Topic: Pokemon nicknames

Clever/Funny pokemon nicknames!
I'll start it off...

Slakoth - bread
"bread is loafing around"

I named my Tepig "Pork Roast."

I tend to give my Pokémon party theme names as I feel it promotes team synergy. I like to kind of decide what my Trainer is into before I start the game and then base the names on that. Like when I played Platinum, I decided my character was into video games, so she named all her Pokémon after Final Fantasy summons.

I have a lot of weird OCD tendencies when playing Pokémon so...

Well I named my Level 4 Pidgy Birdy, and then my Level 3 Mousey, as well as my Level 10 Magikarp, his name is Fishy! That's about it... what? Wondering where my starter pokemon is? Well, I threw him out, can't just name him Squirtley or Charamandery, that would sound SOOOOOO LAME!

Only one I have right now is Klinklang: MetalThing.
I am thinking of getting Vanniluxe and naming it Ben&Jerry.

i always went with anime characters for mine back when i used to play seriously. haven't been able to really play any of the newer games for very long, though; i always get bored :3

In some games I did nicknames, and other times, no nicknames at all. I rarely nickname legendaries... but otherwise, I usually pick a pattern for the whole game. Like maybe using the first gender appropriate real (human) name I think of that begins with the same first letter (Maria the Magikarp, for example). Once I did just nickname them the first word that popped into my mind... it led to very random nicknames, none of which I would remember. Rarely something clever, though.

I remember for Pokemon Silver I used Digimon names.

It was as dumb as it sounds.

The only game I used nicknames in was Platinum. I named all the pokemon I caught after creatures from Pikmin.

I don't always nickname my pokemon, but when I do it's usually goofy. My Garados is named Cutie Pie, while my Wigglytuff is called Stud Muffin!

I had patterns in some of my games, others, none at all. The first time I nicknamed all my Pokemon was in Emerald. I named them after the first thing I saw when I looked up. It just so happens that when I was naming Torchic, I looked up and saw a picture of Elvis, and it seemed like a good idea (not so much when I looked up and saw a table, but I did it anyway). I named them after Fire Emblem characters in Platinum, and in SoulSilver I named them after my favorite classic rock artists; both band names and names of people in the bands. Right now in my second play through in White, I haven't nicknamed any yet.

my sister named my mudkip puppy but i named my seedot - nuts

I named my Arceus "Yoyoma".

I once had a Horsea which my friend named "Amy". Another friend made fun of it later because it was his dog's name >.>

I once had a Panpour called Chimpansea as well as a Darmanitan called Grilla.

I named my Turtwig sapling, my Vanilluxe chocolate, and my Blaziken Flames

I forgot about that Tangela I caught in HeartGold last week. It's called Spaghetti.

Oh, I forgot! I named Panpour Seamonkey; Pansage Treemonkey; and Pansear was Heatmonkey. Pretty stupid, I know, but I felt like naming the stupid things!
