What do you name your Pokemon? - VGF

SephirothKirby · 05-31-2007, 02:58 PM

I name mine a variation of different things, but otherwise, I try to keep it funny.

Chansey; Big Momma
(Male) Tentacool; Jenny
Piplup; Prinny*
Empoleon; Dood*
Rapidash; Epona
- - -

*Cookie for anyone who gets the reference.

And several I've named after VGF members.

Haunter; T3hDarknes (T3hDarkness)
Lucario; CrzySwrdMn (CrazySwordsMan)
Alakazam; Lord Kenny (Um...Lord Kenny)
Golem; Marchie (Marchie?)
Dialga; Ace (Ace Mercury. Because the closest thing I could've put was "Ace Mercy.")
Ralts (She's evolved, but I have no idea how to spell her third evolution.); ZeldaGirl (ZeldaGirl)
Magikarp; NameChange (What ever his name may be now.)

I could've sworn there was more, though, I will have to check. I also plan on some other pokemon on being named after VGF members.

I have to find the perfect one for Valigarmander, though.

**March of the Covenant** · 05-31-2007, 03:04 PM

WHy a Golem?
Haha
It's Gardevoir, btw.

The Doctor · 05-31-2007, 03:23 PM

HAhahaha.

My Piplup is called Prinny too, Dood. (Disgaea, Makai Kingdom, etc. (Greats games)
My Starly is called StarLight.
Drifblim is called Galeforce
Spiritomb called Albert. (Named after my Great Grandad, who I never met.)
Female Abra called Sharon. (coughs)
Torterra called Tor (after the old Power Rangers Tor Zord.)
Chimchar called Chimp ( a friend named it)

Do have a few other but hardly use them. Although I expect the names for some of them to be the same as the old games. So I guess.
Geodude *depends on male/female* is called Geonn/Geanna.
Machop is called Ma.
Wingull is called Waterstrike.
Gastly is called C02.

Why a Golem?

http://www.vgf.com/forums/sinnoh-region-pokemon-forum/

My Starly was named Stanley.

I might get another (female) bird pokemon and name it Helen. (Now I really don't expect anyone to get this reference...)

I also have a pokemon named LampShade whom I cannot recall, because I was being random. I named a Clefairy "Urine" out of randomness, and named her daughter Bell-Chan.

And I just realized I so should've named Lucario after Galefore, he is the Gunjin mod, after all.

**March of the Covenant** · 05-31-2007, 04:06 PM

Half the people that post here love Golem, so I tossed that in there.
Shuckle >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Golem
Sorry guys.

Sim Kid · 05-31-2007, 04:51 PM

I don't ordinarily give nicknames to my 'Mons, but I do have a tendency to screw with people by giving names like "Celebi" or "Jirachi" to random pokemon (Usually weakstuff like Marill). It's only really funny when you can see their faces. (I DID trade a Piplup over Wi-Fi named Celebi as a joke once...I certainly hope he's carrying on the legacy.

Other times, I mostly give nicknames to pokemon I don't like or those I capture by accident in the Safari Zone. Believe it or not, I didn't know I got Pokerus and infected my Zubat...Which I named "AIDS". (Because Zubat certainly would be carrying around diseases...)

Tad Venture · 05-31-2007, 05:00 PM

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.

**March of the Covenant** · 05-31-2007, 06:50 PM

Annoyance is Blissey mang, just you wait till I'm done with that thing

Tad Venture · 05-31-2007, 11:19 PM

Do you get it?

**March of the Covenant** · 06-01-2007, 05:33 AM

I just got the Forreteress one when I was you put in what it meant, do you think I get that one?

I read that 5 times and still don't get it.

**L007 is Undecided** · 06-01-2007, 12:17 PM

I don't nickname my 'Mons.

Ever.

**March of the Covenant** · 06-01-2007, 12:44 PM

^^I just fail. There.

ADVENTURE BUS · 06-01-2007, 12:45 PM

I've nicknamed several.

I nicknamed a Marrill Berry Jerry (Blue Jerry....the mouse damn you).

And My Totodile (now a Feraligatr) Boss.
Hitmonchan is named Small Fire, after the "guy" that voices "Lil'D" from class of 3000.

I've got some weird ones but can't think of them.

SephirothKirby · 06-01-2007, 01:21 PM

Ah, I searched and I found two more member named Pokemon I had forgotten about.

But I forgot them.

Bomby was a Polywrath...

Who was the second? Dammit.

And Shuckle, in my opinion, sucks. You will be teh Golem and you will like it.

**March of the Covenant** · 06-01-2007, 01:41 PM

I will pwn your ass with a Shuckle of mine SK, you wait till that tournament.
You now have your first round opponent.

SephirothKirby · 06-01-2007, 01:42 PM

Oh snap?

Rivalry!

Question. Will this tournament be Lvl 50, Lvl 100, or Free? I'm not certain if you ever stated that.

**March of the Covenant** · 06-01-2007, 01:45 PM

Probably 100.

SephirothKirby · 06-01-2007, 01:56 PM

Well then. Seeing as how only my Empoleon is lvl 100, I will have to work on that.

**March of the Covenant** · 06-01-2007, 01:57 PM

They'll be leveled at 100 automaatically in the Wi-fi Battle.
