Pokemon naming thread! Get and give ideas for pokemon nicknames in here!
Lotsa times I can't think of a good name for my pokemon. So I figure we can use this thread to share ideas for cool pokemon nick names.
So bookmark this post and if you ever need a nickname for your pokemon you can come here ask for suggestions or see what people came up here before.
Also post your own names either ones you used on your own pokemon or any good names you can think of! Note that pokemon names are limited to 10 characters.
If you see a cool name here but yoi've already named your pokemon, you can always go to the name rater in Eterna City and he will change your pokemon's name (unless it is a traded pokemon)
Have fun and lets come up with some good pokemon names!!
Examples of name ideas:
Zubat/Golbat/Crobat: Hover
Geodude/Graveler/Golem: Rocky

I think a good name for a Zubat/Golbat/Crobat is "Hover".
Thats what I named my Zubat when I caught it.

One name I use for Pidgey is Pergy, because of how I used to mispronounce the name.
Aero would not be too bad either .

Re: Pokemon naming thread! Get and give ideas for pokemon nicknames in here!
Seriously though, one of the things i do when trying to come up with a nick name for a poke is to go online and look up names from literature of folklore... The names of old knights work well, and i found a lot of usable names in a wikipedia article about the bogeyman...
I think one of the oddest is my metagross, whose name is 374.12 I was using it as a location specifier while breeding, and got used to it, so i left it.

Re: Pokemon naming thread! Get and give ideas for pokemon nicknames in here!

I hope you liked my names! I'm still taking a bunch to the name rater. Tell me what you think of them :D

Re: Pokemon naming thread! Get and give ideas for pokemon nicknames in here!
me? sometimes whimsical, sometimes practical, sometimes tongue-in-cheek and other times proving just how big a nerd i am.
Dragonite: mine is currently called Puff (because he looks like a magic dragon) but for a while i was debating Captain Planet because of his movelist: Earthquake, Fire punch, Wing Attack & Aqua Tail, and the power of heart~ er... Inner Focus! by your powers combined...
Garchomp: Bulette. for the non-D&D players, a Bulette is a monster commonly nicknamed "land shark"
Gallade: Gotcha, due to his moveset tuned to help me capture with ease: Mean Look, Hypnosis, false swipe & Close Combat (i so wish it could learn Foresight).
Useless & Pointless: while not ones you would use in most combats, these Bibarel sibling have between them 7 TM moves (waterfall, rock smash, strength, whirlpool, surf, cut, rock climb) and headbutt. they are my 2 most useful pokemon when moving about the routes and caves.
Electrode: Flashlight. it should be obvious why.
Staraptor: Boeing, after the airplane. he gets me from A to B but doesn't do much in the distance between.
Magmotar: his flame body trait has caused him to gain the name Incubator.
Charizard: Burninator
Mamoswine: Pumbaa
Luvdisk: Truman. because only a true man could beat another senseless with heart-shaped fish.
Infernape: SonWukong, the monkey king whom he is affectionately modeled after
all 28 unknown are named after the ASCII character they resemble so they can spell things out.
i tend to name only the ones i feel particularly attached to.

Re: Pokemon naming thread! Get and give ideas for pokemon nicknames in here!
oh, if only i could fire up my DS to see some crazy names, but sadly, i misplaced my DS Lite charger a while ago...here are some good nicknames of mine:
I have an Aggron named Lil' Guy, i named him that when i first caught him as an Aron, and i just felt the name was too cool, sentimental reasons. I'm emotional with my Pokèmon, sue me :P
One of my favorites was Burny Pony, for my Ponyta :3
Cresselia named Tsukijin, which is my broken sort-of Japanese meaning of "Moon King", but, you know, it's CRESSELIA, so it's kind of odd
My Pelipper named Dingle Hopper, but i had to shorten it to DinglHopr (and if anyone gets the reference that name is making, you totally rock)
And one of my final favorite is my Metagross named 1337itite, because he's just THAT awesome.

Re: Pokemon naming thread! Get and give ideas for pokemon nicknames in here!

Re: Pokemon naming thread! Get and give ideas for pokemon nicknames in here!
I normally have the worst names for my Pokemon.
I have a Bibarel called "HM Slave" because Bibarel can learn all the hm's except for fly.
I have a Hypno called "Snore"
I have a Rotom called "Matter"
I have a Gyrados called "Red Eel" because it's shiny.
I have a Kyogre called "Whale"
I have a Marshtomp which is called "Mudkipz" I evolved him accidently. :(
