Clever Pokmon Nicknames | Page 78

Publish date: 2024-06-14
Most of the nicknames I use for my Pokemon are based on tv show characters I like, or from Movies, some special ones from my own Family (such as my shiny female Mienshao in W2). I finally got into the habit of nicknaming every Pokemon I catch (the only times I forgotten was when I had to leave the house - and didn't have time to give it one).
____________________________________________________________________

TV show "Meerkat Manor" [yes I am a huge fan of the show] is probably my biggest inspiration for nicknames. Sophie & Mozart are two that I use a lot especially for the same two Pokemon that are always on my teams,
male Patrat/Watchog takes Mozart
female Mienfoo/Mienshao takes Sophie

I will also use many of the other names too - I tend to give them to Pokemon based on Mustelids (such as Furret, Linoone, Sneasel, Zangoose, Buizel, Floatzel, other Mienfoo, Mienshao, Patrat, Watchog), some of the names are (in spoiler)

Spoiler

Flowers, Yosserian, Tosca, Daisy, Mitch, Axel, Cazanna, Nikita, Wilson, Zorro, Lola, Maybelline, & Zaphod

What about my non-mustelid Pokemon? - I will rely on other movies or other TV shows, I try to give them a nickname based on the animal the Pokemon is based on & gender too. Sometimes I will run out of ideas for some I will just use names of some of my favorite real world people (mainly sports).

My male Espurr/Meowstic I nicknamed him Milo (from the movie "Milo & Otis")
My male Fennekin/Braixen/Delphox I called him Roman (from the movie "Le Roman de Renart")
A female Bibarel I used on my first Y team after defeating E4/Champ, I called Marlene (after the female otter in the TV show "Penguins of Madgascar")

For Examples, in my two teams:
Y (storyline finished, defeated E4/Champ):
• Roman, male Delphox - nicknamed from the movie "Le Roman de Renart"
• Sophie, female Mienshao - from "Meerkat Manor"
• Danny, male Lucario - I couldn't come up with one, so I named it after my real-life nickname
• Victor, male Vaporeon - named him after one of my friends
• Sigþórsson (Y game Sigthorsson - since þ can't be used on game), male Sylveon - named him after my favorite Icelandic football player
• Mozart, male Watchog - from "Meerkat Manor"

Current Y Team (a different copy not a restart)
• Renard, male Delphox - named him after the French word for fox
• Sophie, female Mienshao - from "Meerkat Manor"
• Zaphod, male Furret - from "Meerkat Manor"
• Flowers, female Delcatty - from "Meerkat Manor" I know that Delcatty isn't a meerkat, but I liked that nickname, so I kept it
• Mozart, male Watchog - from "Meerkat Manor"
• Fiona, female Skuntank - I think it was from the show "So Weird" (I think that's what it was called)

I'm going to reread all post from page 1 and probably - copy & paste - many names down on notepad to use on future teams, I know along the way I'll find a few interesting ones.
