Clever Pokémon Nicknames

One time, when Wonder Trading, I got a female Froakie named Little Obama. It's level 100 now.

Also, I named my Chesnaught and Blastoise in Y "Pistachio" and "Riptide" respectively.

I realize that I am horrible at giving Pokemon clever nicknames, so my default is the English transliteration of the Japanese name: Charizard is Lizardon, Typhlosion is Bakufun, and Mamoswine is Manmuu. My other favorite thing to do, that I am actually fairly good at, is nicknaming them random human names that somehow work: my Torterra's name is Bradley and my Golduck's name is Webber. Otherwise I have a very limited amount of good, quality, and clever nicknames: Luxray named Shadowbolt, a Goodra named Geeewwwww, or an Espeon named Solstice. Thanks!

OR Team:
--Sceptizard (Sceptile)
--Clay-Doh (Claydol)
--Big Poppa (Hariyama)
--D77-TC (Pelipper)
--Kreese (Crobat)
--Boogaloo (Manectric)

New Y team:
--Bulbapedia (Venusaur)
--Mozilla (Delphox)
--DEVASTATOR (Tyrantrum)
--Surfin' Sam (Simipour)
--Red Demon (Hawlucha)
--Mawlile Cyrus (Mawile)

I never considered myself very good with coming up with nicknames, but I try to be creative.

In my Y, I have a Pidgeot named "BirdJeezus" after the TPP Meme, and an Omanyte named "Twitch", for the same reason
 
on Crystal (yes, I'm going retro) I named my Cyndaquil: Alpha and my Poliwag: Tadpole. Those are currently the only ones I have as I just started. Cyndaquil's name came from an AMAZING show called Teen Wolf.

Edit: got more Pokemon-
Batty the Zubat
Stiles the Rattata
Quacks the Psyduck

I don't have it yet, but I'm planning on naming my first Seel "7335"... because that's how you spell Seel on a calculator (Seel is the only Pokémon with a name that can be spelled on a calculator)

Or 0066175 if you consider 1's to be i's.
 
Saw a Ditto named Kim Kardashian on the GTS yesterday. Found it pretty clever (and hilarious) because both of them are addicted to adultery.

TV Tropes needs to update their Pokémon Characters page. (Damn, Sliggoo)

I got a Turtwig via Wonder Trade named "Raphael" after the Ninja Turtle

A male Jigglypuff I sent away for my Wonderlocke run was given the name Riki. Hopefully he'll be the Legendary Heropuff for his recepient. :XD:

And earlier, I had sent away a male Exeggcute named Wesker. (was also a bit of a stupid name, but whatever,)

Growlithe: Katy Perry.
It is fun to see the pun text when using Roar... :-D
 
I finally got my 3DS and DS Lite back, and I am currently making a House of Night novel team. EVERY Pokemon is gonna have something to do w/ the books. Right now I'm playing Heart Gold, and I named my Totodile 'Night'. Just started, so that's all I have, but in Omega Ruby I found a 3 star Pikachu with the Dex Nav, caught it, and named her Star. I'm gonna go on a naming/breeding spree, but I need some names for these Pokemon:
Latios
Latias
Raikou
Suicune
Entei
Ho-Oh
also, is it worth the risk to try to get a Contrary Snivy w/ the event Pokemon? I don't wanna lose Leaf Storm.
 
I have so many stupid/clever/inappropriate nicknames it would be offensive not to share them:

Slurpuff: Cream Dream
Blastoise: Shelldor (Mega)
Ampharos: Mullet (Mega)
Floatzel: I Am Buizel
Infernape: I.R.
Nidoking: Purple Haze
Lopunny: RampntRabbit (Run out of space, use your imagination.....)
Trevenent: Evil E Tree (The E stands for Enchanted)
Garchomp: Toothless
Mawile: Cap'n Crunch
Machamp: Legs
Aggron: Metal Minion
Talonflame: T-Bird
Crobat: Ozzy
Tropius: Farmer Ted
Quagsire: Derpfish
Exeggcutor: Mary-Jane
Blaziken: Gobbles
Darmanitan: Fisto
Pachirisu: Nibbler
Serperior: Mr Slithers

I have so many more. They are all bred so all 5/6IV, I have far too much time on my hands.......
