I named my Mudkip muddy.
I named my Sudowoodo woody.

Whoa there are a lot of posts here! I'll share mine I guess...

1. 'FN DRAGON! Male
2. ELF EARS Male
3. MAI BOI
4. LADY GAGA
5. PINKAMENA Female
6. MITTROMNEY Male

Why these names?
1. It's a mother friggin DRAGON! YEAH!
2. Name. Says. All. Take a good long look, you'll see it.
3. I have no idea how to explain this.
4. See #2 above.
5. Because she's lonely.
6. See #4 above.

I give my pokemon long nicknames that involve them in some way. I have a gardevoir that boosts it's evasion then chips away at their health with Psychic and Toxic. It's nickname is Tormentor which is short for Gardevoir the Tormentor. Or my Castform that I named Stormagdon which is short for Stormageddon: Bringer of Death because storms.

On the previous page, I posted about my Rapidash, but I'm doing another HG game and I want to nickname all my Pokemon.

Solanum: Solar + Meganium, and I surprisingly noticed a bit later that "Solanum" mean "Potato" in latin.

Ace: She's Timid, so she gets a boost in speed.

I'll update when I get more Pokemon in my team.

In mystery dungeons I nicknamed my partner Powerful and when you first met him he said "Hello, Im powerful."

I usually give them French-ish names, many times in some way derived from their official French name. In Pokémon Blue, my team was:

- Dracau, from its French name Dracaufeu (Fire Dragon) - ♂
- Bella, which is more Italian than French, but this was because of there being a 'bell' sound in all its evolutions' names. - ♀
- Piko, from its French name Triopikeur (Three Miners, I believe) - ♂
- Renée, from its French name Feunard, which means Fire Fox. Renard is fox in French, and Renée sounds like that, so... - ♀
- Roli, from its French name Pyroli. - ♂
- Colvert, which means 'mallard', because for some reason 'mar' reminds me of the word 'mallard'. - ♂

And then my other guys that I didn't really use on my team. Like, ever.

- Jackie. Guess where that's from! Roseanne... - ♂
- Lukas, from its French name Lokhlass. - ♂
- Trilo. According to Bulbapedia, these dudes are based on trilobites. So, Trilo. - ♂
- Terry. Its French name is Ptéra, and I was going to call it Terra, but in LeafGreen (which is where I got all these dudes' genders) it was a dude, so I changed it to Terry. - ♂
- I was going to call it Moltrois, but in the end I decided not to give Moltres a nickname. I don't really think it makes sense to give a unique Pokémon a nickname. It's not like you'll mix it up with someone else's Moltres... I did, however, rewrite it so it wasn't all capitalized.

Something I just noticed: all these names are disyllabic. Totally not on purpose. And also, Lukas and Moltres are the only ones I used (for Surf and Fly, respectively) aside from my main team, and they're the only ones whose names end in a hard sound. Colvert ends in a soft sound, like Stephen Colbert from the Colbert Report. Parce qu'il est français.

Oh, I might as well share the names of my other two teams (a water one and a grass one).
- Cara ♀ - Dardeur ♂ - Surri ♀ - Kali ♀ - Firos ♂ - Staros - Cuno (to keep up with the disyllable thing goin' on)
- Rizar ♂ - Victor ♂ - Kailu ♀ - Neo ♂ - Tali ♀ - Koko ♀ - Zapdos (just made it not all capitalized)

this is very nice sharing about the nicknames of pokymon i really like it

Oh my god, no, haha! The letters on the right indicate gender, lmao but let's just pretend for a minute that I'm a comedic genius

I name all my Pokemon after foods. But some dont make sense (Apple the geodude)
Any names for a Slowpoke (Food name if you can plz )

Chef's Knife
Named since it what I came up with at 2am of launch day when I caught a Honedge, It stuck

Gyarados(mega)-(F) Net Ball
Gunkanmaki (Warship sushi-roll)
Named for obvious reasons.

Florges-Blue-(F) Premiere Ball
