What Do You Name Your Pokemon?, 'Cause I can't find a topic like this already Options

[Crystal Talian]

I was just curious. I always nickname my Pokemon when I play, I like to know what other people name their Pokemon. I also like to know if anyone who plays the games nowadays even bothers (especially people around my age). I couldn't find any topics about this already, so I decided to make my own!

Anyway . . .

Do you name your Pokemon? What do you name them? Why? Any names you really like?

I'll go through a few of my nicknames - I just started some new game files.

I have a charmander named Pepper. I usually name my charmander Firestorm, but this one was a girl so I decided to change things up a bit. I named my chimchar Firestorm instead.

I named my pikachu Jupiter. 'Cause the Roman name for Zeus is Jupiter . . . and he throws lightning bolts!

I totally blanked and ended up calling my mudkip Pisces. Yeah. The fish constellation.

The only other one that comes to mind right now is Artemis, my poochyena. I named it that because it's a dark-type and I associate dark-types with the moon . . . and Artemis is a moon goddess. She's a hunting goddess too, so that works great for poochyena.

Back again! I guess I'll do my names from Ruby and Sapphire today. =3 I think these are the first games where I used some abbreviations and shortcuts. Oh, as a side not, I changed Hurricane the Drifloon to Downburst the Drifloon. Much happier with that. Anyway . . .

Riptide the Marshtomp, Foxtrot the Kirlia, Fenrir the Mightyena, Kestrel the Swellow, Fantasia the Breloom, M-Therium the Vigoroth, Chatter the Ninjask, Mischief the Skitty, Snapdragon the Mawile, Titan the Aron, Anubis the Electrike, Glutton the Gulpin, and LiteBrite the Volbeat.

Sapphire (as of the third badge):
Evergreen the Grovyle, Pinecone the Linoone, Showers the Masquerain, Schooner the Pelipper, Stereo the Loudred, Catmint the Skitty, Cushion the Hariyama, Echo the Golbat, Sterling the Aron, Quartz the Sableye, Chipper the Plusle, Gummy the Gulpin, ToxiThorns the Roselia, and Dazzle the Illumise.

As per usual, my best work is in bold. Also, feel free to ask me what the heck I'm referencing with some of my names. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lalatounge.gif)
