Post good nicknames.
Is this

Pikachu

>>31466109
Faraday
>>31466096
>he doesn't nickname his story team
>he doesn't nickname his shinies
>>31466132
Those are not nicknames.
>>31466139
Exactly
>>31466096
>Not nicknaming your pokemon
Kill yourself for the sake of humanity.
>>31466096
这是一个Jojo指称吗
>>31466109
Magmortar: Kallinikos (inventor of Greek fire)
Yanmega: Apache
Vespiquen: Victoria
I agree with OP though people who gives bad or jokey nicknames are subhumans
>>31466096
It's entirely possible to prefer nicknaming without forcing said preference on others, which is what grieves you and what you are doing right now with this thread.
>>31466109
Here are some of mine:
>Shiny Hoopa
Gilgamesh
>Landorus-t
Shiva
>Shiny Aegislash
Ea
>Blaziken
Zarathustra

Sandmaargh
>>31466225
I named my Sandyghast CastleOfSand
>>31466109
I like naming my reliable Genie of healthy meta Vajra, because it reminded me of Vajra from God Eater as a kid.
This idea that nicknames need to be clever to be good is retarded.
>>31466158
Why would you knowingly fail a simple request?
>>31466137
>He didnt nickname hisprimarinaJotaro
>>31466269
Because he couldn't succeed if he tried. This at least gives him the illusion of power and competence for a couple minutes, followed by self loathing.
>>31466096
>Decidueye: Reginald (english male name)
>Incineroar: Chantico (god of fires and volcanoes)
>Primerina: Siren
I named my Tornadus Osama because when I first found him he looked like Osama to me
>>31466109
I nicknamed mine "Edelweiss"
HOW YOU LIKING THEM PATTIES BITCH
Friendly reminder that naming your pokemon after some vague pseudointellectual reference makes you as much of, if not a bigger, fag than the people who have ebin XDDD Allahu Akbar nicknames.True patricians name their pokemon after anime characters
I wouldn't really give a shit if you were able to change the names of traded pokemon. There's no need for that bullshit.
Fuckoff, I like naming my mons
>>31466208
Tydormu the Cubone
Hydrolancer the Gastrodon

>>31466109
I won't, because there's the possibility to some anon like them and steal one of my pokemon nicknames, which would make my pokemon less unique.
>>31466109

This is why no one will ever come close to the bond between me and Piyokorota the Blaziken
>>31468974
Clow Cards are not Stands, dipshit.
Okay but don't you guys ever look at your nicknames and find them cringy? Any time I have nicknamed them I resort to just renaming them their species name.

>>31469241
>weeb and a furry
I'm a pokephile and I still think you should kill yourself
I named my Mareanie Poison
>>31469275
Oh no I like nicknaming my Pokemon after stuff I like how horrible.Also you have no room to talk pokephile.
I usually name them after those silly basic descriptive words, but in other languages. When bank hits, my team will have six mons of shitty cringey names, but two are in Latin, two are in Norwegian, and two are in Irish Gaelic.
>Micari, Tenebrae, Jegeren, Kamphane, Lasair, Fuaire
I have some mons in German and a couple in Russian, and I think one in Dutch.
>>31469259
Clow Cards are not Stands
>>31469241

Nah I like living right now thanks.
>>31469305
>Not stands
>Pulls up a pic of what are practically stands
What did anon mean?
>>31469345
They are not Stands because Cardcaptor Sakura is not Jojo's Bizarre Adventure.
It's like calling Voltron a Megazord.
>>31469345
it's something from cardcaptor sakura, can someone explain what the fuck this is?
also, any tarot set that isn't Rider-Waite is objectively shit
そして、時は動き出す。
>>31466135
I named my Magnezone that on an SS run. Goddamn did that thing carry.
>>31466471
Lame.
>>31469028
Clow Cards are jojo references so that counts too you dumbfuck
>>31470214
not everything is a jojo reference you dumb fuck
Shiny Araqnuid after the metroid fusion spider boss because of the colors.
>>31466109
Hamlet, since in the play within hamlet and i think in medieval times women werent allowed to act, so the guys just crossdressed
I originally named him manuel, guess why.
I'm being that enormous faggot that names his team after the Seven Deadly SinsPride reserved for the trainerand not one of you fuckers can stop me.
>>31466109
>>31466109
Falsa Wood or the always classic Shamrock
I name my pokemon references to my tastes or something very silly.

>>31466109
Scientific names are best. Physalia for Nihilego as an example.
>>31466206
If you dont call Arcanine "Hot Dog" you are doing it wrong.
>>31467315
Wonderful taste my friend. My Empokeon is ChillPenguin.
For me raising a pokemon starts with naming them. From there I decide a personality, EV spread, and move set. My monsters wont ever be tournament juggernauts but I'm not playing to beat a 12 year old in a battle. I'm playing because I enjoy the pet raising aspects.
Venusaur named Hestia, Ledian named Scarlet, Mewtwo named Erwin, Banette named Andy, even the recent additions of Tapu Lele (Nut), and two celesteelas (Columbia and Challenger) all bear nicknames not because I think they're clever but as a very direct way of showing I took the time and effort to raise this one the way I think it should be raised.
>>31469364
Those are in all essence stands and denying it is fruitless
>>31466225
I chuckled.
>>31471297
Fauxliage also works
>>31466096
I like to have themes within my team and will nickname my guys around that themepic related
>>31466397
What if we do both AND occassionally silly names?
>>31471297
Shamrock is 10/10.
>>31466471
Not even Sylvester or Rocky? Just... Punchy?
>>31473070
Maybe it's a pun off Pinchy
>>31467376
I disagree with your opinion.
All my Shinies in SM have nicknames.

I wanted to name my mega-Kangaskhan "Pistol Packing Mama" but it doesn't all fit so she's just Pistol Mama now.
Salamence is Salazar.
Tapu Lele is Tura Lura, Tapu Fini is Finna.
Male Fomantis isBoiPucci
I name all my female Slowpokes Poppy, have been since Gen II.
Golisopod is nicknamed Prodigal. "Ah, so the prodigal son returns" joke. Stupid. But yeah.
Scizor is Milwaukee.
Leafeon is Hemlock.
Pancham/Pangoro are Undies.
And my favorite: Sia the Chandelure
>>31471377

>>31473051
Yeah I also do this, I have a team based on the premise of pinchers. So they all have silly names to go with them. Pinchy Pinchy is still my bro.
>>31466096
Fuck you I love my Muk named Goopy.
Litten - Cinder
Slowpoke - Slow Moe
Pancham - Panda Monium
Sandile - Snappy
Xurkitree - Live Wire
Lairon - Fuckasaurus Rex
Kyogre - Apophis
Zebstrika - Lightning Colt
Deoxys - Extro
Poochyena - Chill (he had Ice Fang when I caught him)
Some of these would be too long or would be blocked.
>>31473391
Oh yeah, I named my Torterra "Yggdrasil", seemed like a cool name.
>>31473360
>Naming Muk as Meinkumpf
>>31466096

>>31466109

>>31471171
Then why didn't you name him Ophelia
Hamlet is a guy, the actor wouldn't crossdress
Ophelia makes much more sense
>He doesn't name his Pokemon after Fire Emblem characters
>He doesn't name his Dragon Quest party after Fire Emblem characters
>He doesn't name his Final Fantasy III Famicom party after 90's gangsta rappers

Friend of mine named his Sandelure. It's a pun on a different Pokémon's name, which is also a pun
>>31466109Misaka
>>31466109
I at some point named an articuno Vanilla Ice (I think I had to shorten it to) V. Ice since the name limit didn't go up to 12 characters until either gen 5 or 6 and I think this was during Gen 4 in HGSSthis was before I had any idea of what jojo even was
