What are you nicknaming your other Pokemon?

If I like the Japanese names better, I'll nickname my Pokemon them. That's probably about it. I always name my Shiny Pokemon though, so we'll have to wait and see for that.
 
I don't normally nickname my Pokémon, but I just have to name my Braviary "Washington." 'Cause, you know, washi = eagle, so Washington = awesome eagle a ton of awesome, even.

He's probably the only one I'll rename.

I too usually don't nickname pokemon, but I gotta do it. Imma catch a Karrablast and name him Buggli! I <3 Buggli!!! :)
 
I never nickname starters or legendaries, but I'm trying to find names for everyone else! I'm naming my Klink Cogsworth, but I want to think of some other ones.

Firebert is NOT A GOOD COMMANDO NAME! Cookie please!
 
well the only ones i know for sure currently are goth for the gothic looking thing, my oshawott will be female and named either aqua or aquamarine depending, deerling will be bambi,little electric spider foof,fluff for the cottony looking blk exclusive, and probably Kiba for my axew.

Everything will probably get a nickname im just not sure what theyll be yet cause it kinda depends on my mood
 
Since my newer save of Firered I started a tradition to nickname all the Pokémon I ever catch. But of course the main team is the most important one ^_^ I already have all the names in mind, although my game doesn't come until Tuesday or Wednesday:

~Oshawott, male Asari [Japanese for "shell". Yeah, pretty original but I like it, my friend suggested it too.]
~Snivy, female Serefine [Beautiful name that just popped into my head. Reminds me of "vine".]
~Minccino, female Cappucino [Minccino's name reminds me of the word "cappucino" and I think it's pretty cute name! :3]
~Emolga, female Momo [Just a cute name which is fitting. Means "peach" in Japanese, altough in this case it isn't important.]
~Victini, "male" Chikachi [chibi + kachi = "little win", fits for its personality. My friend suggested this and I liked it!]
~Ducklett, female Impi [This is a reference to our national epic called Kalevala. Ilman Impi or Ilmatar [basically "Maiden of the air"] is a virgin spirit of the air in the story. So that's where the name "Impi" comes from. This fits for it more once it evolves into Swanna.]

I love to nickname my Pokés~ ^-^
