Yeah, but can Shuckle EXPLODE?

Anyway, brace yourselves, guys. I nickname everything.

Abomasnow - Yeta
Honchkrow - CrowTRobot
Toxicroak - Toxicity
Rotom - RotoRooter
Garchomp - Chainchomp
Empoleon - Nappy

Cloyster - Smellyjack (long story)
Roserade - Lemonade
Hitmontop - Yeah, mon
Skarmory - Tuesdays
Forretress - Luther
Claydol - Clayface

Lickitung - Luke Luck
Hitmonchan - Jackie
Hitmonlee - Bruce
Breloom - Dr. Bre
Girafarig - Thingmajig
Dewgong - Do the Dew
Dugtrio - Tritoch
Manectric - CheapTrick
Machamp (Shiny) - Knux
Xatu - Mr. X
Clefable - Aesop
Porygon-Z - Wire Frame
Kyogre - Shrek
Azumarill - For Rill!
Blissey - Ignorance

Okay, now, for fun, see what obscure references and lame puns you can pick out of all those names.

And if you don't want to,

Spoiler Below
Abomasnow - Yeta - Zelda: TP
Honchkrow - CrowTRobot - MST3k
Toxicroak - Toxicity - System of a Down
Rotom - RotoRooter - The Plumbers
Garchomp - Chainchomp - Mario enemy
Empoleon - Nappy - Napoleon. This is referring specifically to Napoleon Bonaparte the VGF member.

Cloyster - Smellyjack (long story)
Roserade - Lemonade - just a name joke. I do that all too often
Hitmontop - Yeah, mon - self-explanatory
Skarmory - Tuesdays - Tuesdays with Morry. Tuesdays with Skarmory. Yeah, I'm retarded.
Forretress - Luther - 'cause it's a Mighty Forretress.
Claydol - Clayface - Batman Villain

Lickitung - Luke Luck - Read Fox in Socks.
Hitmonchan - Jackie - Jackie Chan
Hitmonlee - Bruce - Bruce Lee
Breloom - Dr. Bre - Dr. Dre
Girafarig - Thingmajig - Name joke again
Dewgong - Do the Dew - again with the name joke
Dugtrio - Tritoch - Old VGF Admin
Manectric - CheapTrick - Old band
Machamp (Shiny) - Knux - This is kind of an homage to him, since his favorite pokemon was Machamp. I saw the shiny Machoke and he was the first thing I thought of.
Xatu - Mr. X - Dr. Wily's stupid costume in Mega Man 6
Clefable - Aesop - Aesop's Fables
Porygon-Z - Wire Frame - This is another stretch. You fought the Polygon team in SSB, and then in SSBM when things were smoother, they were the Wire Frame team. Porygon-Z is very smooth and that's what it reminded me of.
Kyogre - Shrek
Azumarill - For Rill! - For real, man.
Blissey - Ignorance - Ignorance is Blissey.
