Lord Vectra Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 I got into pokemon like a week ago, but I have the following nicknames. Darkrai (fav pokemon): Reaper Hydreigon (2nd fav pokemon): Hades Charizard: Infernal Gallade: Don Froslass: Jura Luxray: Nightray Tyranitar: Lark Ariados: Sulven Haunter: Phantom Note: All male names except Jura (and reaper since it's kind of gender neutral) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rose of Versailles was one of my favorite Animes when I was like 7 years old. Lady Oscar is such a noble character, and a female Aegislash is like the perfect Pokemon for her.

pyrromanis Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 These nicknames never change in any playthroughs Raichu-Alola: Cakes Emboar: Bacon God Rotom-Mow: Grass Munch Charizard: Either Hamilton or Zippo depending if it's physical or special respectively Mamoswine : T H I C C Muk: Boogy Muk-Alola: Mr./Mrs. Rainbow depending on gender Swanna: Dolan Conkeldurr: Pennywise Torkoal: Raphael Eelektross: Scoopa Aegislash/Doublade: Hexcalibur Zoroark: Surprise Venusaur: Rivy Staraptor: Piwerkflu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doombotmecha Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 Most of the time, I try to go with a theme, naming mons after characters in a particular series, but otherwise... Blaziken is always "foghorn leg" after Foghorn Leghorn, Cartoon Rooster Garchomp is always Ryouko ever since it was pointed out to me that Mega Gar is an identical upgrade to the one Ryouko used to beat Gamagori. Magnezone tends to be ZEL, because Reborn spoilers lol Alolan Muk is "Billious Slick" after a frog in homestuck that was also a universe and also because it's based on an oil slick Ironically, Metagross is my favorite pokemon, but I've yet to come up with a nickname I really like. Maybe Wintermute, after the AI in Nueromancer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Froiky Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 One that I recently started using was Play Dough for Tangrowth because it looks like play dough from one of those toys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Autumn Zephyr Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 I personally try to nickname the majority of pokes I get, though many are sort of on-the-spot and lame. Still, there are some diamonds in the rough, so let's focus on those! Breloom (Male): Yoshi Rex <Similar body type, and shared stretchy bits. Besides, the mushroom cap looks a bit like headwear, right?> Breloom (female): Jabbers <Am I the only one who's always found this species' arms to be mildly humorous?> Grovyle: Sliver <A reference to the bladed monsters in MTG; decidedly less applicable as a sceptile, though> Kyurem (White): Fuelado <The Spanish words for fire and ice, combined in a somewhat awkward package... kinda like the pokemon itself!> Porygon Z: Program: Insufficient Number Generator <P:I.N.G. for short; RNG's always a pain the butt, so why not personify that?> Cinccino (Male): McSwiffer <If you're gonna be a clean freak, might as well do it with style! Especially when you're cleaning up an absurd about of the game on your own *cough, solo'd black kyurem. cough*> Luxray: Pride <7 Deadly Sins name to match the 'dark' design? Check! Big cat joke? Check! Is probably a trait among members of a Champion's team? Check! Simple, but effective, I'd say> Girafarig: Palin <From 'palindrome', which the species name happens to be; also sounds like shorthand for 'paladin', which I find fitting after one took a Shadow Force to the (main) face, teaching me that Normal is immune to Ghost the hard way> Milotic: Borealis <It's less stereotypical than Aurora, and more androgynous to boot> Chimecho: Echologica <It's got the words echo and logic in it, hitting both its theme and its Type, while sounding not English. Worth it? Maybe> Cradily: Matte <From 'stromatolite', which I though might have some connection to the design. I mean, they're both ancient plant-like entities that are actually quite stony, so it's not that much a stretch, right?> Vileplume (Female): Eufloria <Kinda cheesy, mayhaps, but that's vileplume for ya. She was named before I found out that she had a Naughty Nature, though...> Sharpedo: Slavedos <While the first one's name stemmed from being my second HM slave for the file, I couldn't help but like how the name came out. I'll just tell the successors that it has 'slaver' as the root word and they'll be nonethewiser! ...Hopefully> Probopass (Female): Ms. Impasse <Mr. Potato Head joke combined with a jab at her overly-defensive nature. Not that I have a problem with tanks, myself!> Tynamo: WishiNotMe <Am I the only one who thinks this guy and wishiwashi's Solo form look similar?> Wishiwashi: Mr. Wishes <As in, he wishes he were stronger on his own. Still doin' better than magikarp, at least> Drifblim: Hindenburg <A century later isn't 'too soon', right?> Gourgeist (Supersized, Male): Squashen <Is what he's hopefully doin'! There's also the obvious pun aspect, but oh well> ...That turned out to be longer than I initially anticipated. My bad! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BandorKitty Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 I just remembered one name that has served as an in-joke between my brother and I for many years. Spoiler "Bread is loafing around" Lame, I know XD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
