There's literally nothing wrong with naming your Pokemon ingame. On the other hand, if you nickname Pokemon in Showdown then you shouldn't have the right to live.

I only give nicknames to shinies I find, and usually try to make it punny / related to their color. Eg I have a green Machamp named Hulk, red Aegislash named Royal Blood, and blue Carbink named Slurpee.
I need nicknames for a golden A-Exeggutor and orange Goodra, if anyone has ideas.

>>32562505
That is only bad if you have to look up name of mythical/divine beings before you name a Pokemon.
If you name a Pokemon after something mythical you already know about, that's perfectly fine.
Pokemon aren't human, so human names on them sound off. Most mythological names are also unusual, making them a good match for Pokemon.
>>32562896
So do you name your character "CHARACTER" or
In gen 3, i named my torchic Blazekick (knowing it become blaziken)
I did not realize it would actually learn a move called Blaze Kick.
>>32562973
I just go with my handle because there's actually a point to doing such.
what is wrong with naming your pokemon?
>>32562911
I recommend trying to get a new bromon to carry with you through the games, Anon. It won't replace the ones you lost but it might help a little.
>naming your Pokémon after Stands from Jojo's Bizarre Adventure
[spoilers]its really hard because a lot of them are so weird or have really long names but I try[/spoiler]
>>32562997
I've never seen a non-shit nickname

>>32562503
yo but what am i supposed to name my machamp if not Lesnar
>>32563011
If you can't give a good nickname you shouldn't give one at all
>>32563035
but why?
it's not going to affect your life
it's just something people like to do nothing much
>>32563051
If you don't share them that's fine but the instant you make them public your point is moot
>>32563063
i don't post them
but why get so worked up about it?
if you don't like it , just ignore it
>>32563066
>getting worked up
Nah nigga nah. It's a minor annoyance at most. But at the same time, I shouldn't have to ignore you being annoying, it's your responsibility as a social creature to be as not annoying as you can be
>>32563090
but what is so annoying posting the name someone gave to a digital monster?
you should say that to shitposters and people who make starterwars threads
>>32562504
>Not naming your fighting type &KNUCKLES
Every Pokekemon nickname ever is a cartoon, anime, video game, celebrity, deity/paranormal or meme reference and that's if the namer isn't just dicking around with wordplay.
I don't nickname at all, but at this point where at least a good couple hundred people will have the same idea for a nick, what do you care what other people name their pokemon?
>>32563113
>telling people who are deliberately being dicks that they are annoying others
You're not very bright are you
>>32563143
i just used your own statement
> I shouldn't have to ignore you being annoying, it's your responsibility as a social creature to be as not annoying as you can be
and answer me why are they annoying, i'm curious to why you think so
>>32562644
>>32562638
>Naming your pokemon in order to seem to be smarter than others
>not naming your pokemon fucking nigger
>>32563142
Would a Kartana nicknamed Origamurai be word play?
>>32563150
They know, and they are deliberately doing otherwise because they don't care. Again, you're not very bright are you?
As to why they are annoying, it's minor but the nicknames are always either stupid, tryhard or cringeworthy.
>>32562495
>>32562505
guilty
>>32563428
i guess i'm not very bright if you say so, but if you are trying to insult me it wont work
and they do care but because they are attention whores,which is quite pointless if i do say so myself,
why do you think they keep doing it over and over again?
and for the reasons why you find it annoying is quite ludicrous, i never fully understood the point of "cringe", since the only thing that makes me cringe is gory stuff, because i'm a bit on the squeamish side
>>32563014
i do this all the time,really dumb but fun at times
>>32562544
>not naming every mon a letter so you can get multiple messages of opp saying : ``what does it spell ?´´

Geodude sounds like it was done by treehouse.
ITT: Anons get triggered over a bunch of silly letters attached to ones and zeroes that usually aren't even meant to have any specific meaning to anybody else outside of their trainers
Clearly you people were born without skin if this shit irritates you this much.
>>32564917
Not when you misspell 'Poseidon'
>>32562505
Named my fem-decidueye in moon "Arduinna" (it's spelled right in the game but I can't be bothered to look it up) which is a Celtic or Norse goddess of nature
Naming shit after normie gods like Zues or Ra is gay tho
>>32567276
>making references that you can't spell correctly on command nor know the details behind
Truly the mark of a pseudo-intellectual.
>straight up named my fire type pokemon Fire

Ein is more akin to the English 'a' than one.
>>32565558
>not naming your box legendary BAGHORSE

I am 100% confident that the people who made that call knew absolutely zero German and overrode this objection if anyone brought it up because Deinso sounds stupid.

I tried to do this with Super but couldn't bring myself to. We were friends when I played through the other games and it feels weird naming the Partner after anyone else.

I called my dog "dog" because I couldn't think of a name, and it stuck because I took too long to think. Best boy I ever had, he deserved a better name.
