Most Creative Nicknames

[Princess Niki]

Boy I could go on about these, but to keep my post short I will do one game every week just to keep the thread alive.

This is my Ruby game from when I was 10 to now
Absol - Aslan (I was into Narnia at the time)
Phanpy - Little Fan
Volbeat - Little Vol (Named after his father Volt)
Venomoth - Yay (I caught it in the safari zone)
Exeggutor - Exit
Entei - Lord Flame
Tangela - Angla
Beautifly - Color (Its a Shiny Pokemon)
Jigglypuff - Juwpy (missed the M)
Wigglytuff - Simger (missed the N)

I used to nickname all my pokemon but then I stopped because I was getting confused.

I have an Alakazam that I nicknamed Ganondorf, but in retrospect Voldemort would have made more sense.

For some reason I named my Poliwrath Link, and I still can't remember why it reminded me of the Link from Zelda.

And the reason I stopped nicknaming pokemon is because I once named a whole team "No Mercy." That got really confusing.

I caught a ton of Mighteyanas and named them different verses from Eminem's No Love. I left out the cusses though, so don't call me obsene. Anyways, I usually just name my Pokemon two words that sound really cool, and are completely ruined when put together. (LordSlayer, BossDemon....)

Your nicknames strategy shows just how deep Pokemon can be

 

[Man_of_Squid]

I always name my Pokemon some variant of "slartibartfast", or "phartyphukbill" or just "stupid".

Every time I play I end up in giggling.

 

[MikauIncarnate]

On one of my games (I think ruby) they're all named after characters from broadway musicals (except for some are the actors, because I couldn't think of ones that began with a certain letter for the unknowns).
