Clever Pokémon Nicknames

I always like to nickname Eeveelutions after Starfox characters or planets:

Vaporeon - Zoness/Aquas
Jolteon - Katina
Flareon- Solar
Espeon - McCloud/Krystal
Umbreon - O'Donnell
Leafeon - Corneria
Glaceon - Fichina

I have no idea what I'm gonna name Sylveon when I train one. Kat maybe?
 
Yeah, so i modified my Pokemon White Team. here's the new one: Team Yu-Gi-Oh!!!
Charmeleon-Bakura (he is NOT evil, in my opinion. i just LOVE Bakura. that's YAMI Bakura. as such, this one will ALWAYS be on my team.)
Servine-Marik (Another cool person. i like him, too.)
Staravia-Téa (she is ONLY good for Bakura, if you ask me. screw Yami Yugi. i like Bakura more. this one also will never leave my team. she's the mate of Bakura.)
Delcatty-Ryo (the 'light' half of Yami Bakura. just like Yugi is the 'light' half of Yami Yugi.)
Wartortle-Yugi (don't ask WHY i included Yugi. i don't even know myself. i'm just glad it wasn't Yami.)

So i am now going to stay true to the Yu-Gi-Oh theme. THANK YOU fanfiction.net! you inspired me with these nicknames.
 
I don't really give my Pokemon nicknames anymore but here the nicknames I would give my dream team:

Rayquaza- godfang
Arceus- supreme
Giratina- Hades
Kyurem- Frostwing
Garchomp- Ripjaws
Charizard- Bruce
 
Re: Pokemon Nicknames! What have you named your team and what meanings do the names h

now i have made a COMPLETE Egyptian-Themed team. they ALL have Egyptian names. here they are! The meanings are in parentheses.
Dewott-Akila (INTELLIGENT)
Charmeleon-Subira (PATIENT)
Servine-Atum (WHOLE)
Pignite-Ra (THE SUN)
Houndoom-Safiya (PURE)
Prinplup-Naunet (GODDESS OF THE OCEAN)

don't ask me how to pronounce these. i'm not exactly sure how. at least, a few of them i'm not sure. i hope you like them! :spin:
 
I wouldn't call this clever and I'm sure other people have thought of this first but back in Gen IV I named my Porygon-Z "Porigami."
 
I am Nicknaming all of my pokemon, I really love searching in the internet for a clever one or something my friends could not understand.

Derpeon (Eevee...it was just hilarious)
Kaede (Chikorita-maple leaf in japanese)
Bruit (Whismur-means sound in french)
DVD (Luvdisc-yeah not the best name)
Yeah there are wayyyyyy better names in my arsenal, i just don't really seem to play pokemon that much since its my freshman year in highschool and i really want to focus on that. I started a Sacred Gold Nuzlocke though, so i might be returning to my awsomeness in naming.
 
One name I've been pretty proud of was for my now-deceased Flygon (dat Nuzlocke). The name is Myrmelea, which is derived from Myrmeleontidae, the "family" in which antlions are classified.
 
Maractus[F] Sharp. Because it has somthing to do with music.

Marowak [M] Grimbone. Cubone has a sad backstory, so this name is fitting.

Jellicent [M] King Terror I or K. Terror I. He looks like a king, he is part Ghost-Type.

Sawk [M] Bruce Lee. A famous Kung-Fu fighter.

Jigglypuff [F] Lullacute. She sings a Lullaby, she's cute.

Clefairy [F] Galaxairy. She comes from space.

Garbodor [M] Gasinator. He sprays smelly liquids to defeat foes.

Croagunk [M] Venphibian. It's a Poison dart frog. A mix of Venom and Amphibian.

Skorupi [M] Toxscourge. Somewhere in The Bible Scorpions are also mentioned to mean Scourges, and Toxic.

Chandelure [M] Eternalier. A haunted area in The Pokemon Universe, The Old Chateau, can be found in Eterna Forest. Chandeliers are also popular in Mansions.

Sigilyph [F] Cleopatra. It looks Egyptian, it's a girl. So I decided to name it after Cleopatra.

Grimer [M] Pileocrap. It's sludge, Rotting crap, enough said.

Charmander-Blazer
Luxray-Thunderclaw
Silcoon-May

Flawless Platinum Favorites:
Celebi-Sammy (I'm sure you know why)
Charizard-Temper (LOL)
Raikou-Thundercat (it always looked more like a cat than a dog to me)
Deoxys-DNA (Couldn't think of a better name)
Jirachi-Wishmaker (BEST.NICKNAME.EVER!)
Porygon-Polygon (that's what it's name means in Jap.)
 
I wanted to name my Onondo Fangore, but it's a Japenese game so he got キバゴー (Kibagou).
 
Here are some name that I thought of & really liked:

Luana for female Lucario.
Luana is a name that means "warrior maiden".

Gaberiel for male Togekiss
If I remember correctly, Gaberiel is the name of an archangel.

Chandra for female Chandelure
Chandra means "maiden of the night", I belive...

Vespera for Vespiquen
Vespera means "gem of the evening sun" or something like that... (I should look these names up again...)

Charles for male Charizard
I never looked up what Charles means, but it starts with "Char" so I thought it'd be a good name for a male Charizard.
 
Things like..."Oh fuck he". So when it levels up..."Oh fuck he leveled up to level 5!"
 
My uber-geeky dad's playing Pokemon Black right now, and I traded him a Solosis named "U Jelly?"
