Stupidest nickname you ever gave to a Pokemon

I named my Ducklett in White "Duc" *faceplam* what was I thinking
I named a Mr.Mime Mimey
A Cofagrigus "Tut"

These weren't originally mine , but I got a used Diamond with Christmas money to replace my original copy. ( I lost it when my family went on vacation to Atlanta. I left it in the hotel ;~; ) I thought I should PokeTransfer the original player's Pokemon to my White version.
The player before gave his Pokemon the worse nicknames.
He named a Floatzel BAMMMMMMM and another Floatzel CDS
He named a Medicham "WHY AM I"
A Roselia named ABABABABAB
A Budew name CHALK BABY

I looked into my Pokemon Gold cartridge recently and discovered that I had a Zubat that I named "Dracula". :rolleyes:
 
i named my gulpin dingleberry. not sure why.

a few years ago i was replaying crystal and i named my team after STDs. i think my espeon was named syphilis. not sure what i was trying to do there.
 
Gawd, when I started playing Sapphire at about 11, I gave everything a stupid nickname.

-My Mudkip (now Swampert) was very creatively named 'Muddy'. I still have her, she's the best.
-For some reason, I had a Raichu called 'Eggbert'. I don't know what I was thinking.

But the best dumb nickname has got to be 'Missy', which is what I named the Beldum Steven gives you after the game is complete. Then I migrated it over to my brother's Pearl, and to this day he still complains that he's stuck with a Metang called 'Missy'.
 
for a challenge i'm taking, i have to name a bidoof HERPDERP XD

and on my own i once named a Infernape Insinfree for NO reason WHATsoever
 
The best (and worst) EVER, which I will never top, was a Ditto named Slutputty.
 
It was Augomon I thought I was cool because it sounded awesome then I kinda realized that it was a Digimon name and I was like Awhhh :( lol :p I named my bagon that to be clearer.

I named my Torchic/Combusken/Blaziken "KFC." The best part- I got his father in a GTS trade with a guy in Kentucky. ^^.

Well, I once named a Rapidash I caught in Pearl Wild A**, since, well, because.

I also, when I was younger, caught a Dewgong in FireRed (With a Master Ball, I might add!) and I named it Sparky, lord knows why! XD
 
The only times I nicknamed any Pokemon were in the days of the original Gold and Silver, I gave my entire squad anime-based names:

My Pokemon Silver Squad
Meganium - Shenron (after the DBZ dragon)
Quagsire - (Shenlong after the Gundam Shenlong)
Ampharos - (Jupiter ... cos Sailor Jupiter had lightning powers I guess?)
Gyarados - Escaflowne (if you know the series it's self explanatory, if not Escaflowne was a dragon, a robot dragon but still)
Lugia - Silverbolt (wasn't actually an anime name I admit)
Ho-Oh - Phoenix (I don't really need to explain this one right?)

My Pokemon Gold names
I know nicknamed my main squad in this game but someone saved over this game so I can't remember all of these, though I do remember:

Typhlosion - Mercury (I'd not long found out the planet Mercury was super hot)
Quagsire - Shenlong, (same as Silver for same reason)
Noctowl - Triton (it had 3 head feathers like a triton, thought I was being clever haha)
Red Gyarados - Typhoon (because I remembered the original Dragon Rage attack scene and thought of storm, typhoon?)
Lugia - Silverbolt same as Silver
Ho-Oh - Phoenix same as Silver

Since those days of pre-DS passed I just haven't felt the need to nickname anymore, especially my main squad, just haven't felt like it *shrugs shoulders*
 
Looking through my games two gyarados: Stupid and Magikrap
My bros Serperior: SSis.
My friends shiny ursaring: Mr. Shine XD
