Signature Pokémon Nicknames?


Wolfox

Recommended Posts

Nicknaming Pokémon is probably one of the oldest features of the franchise, and if you ask me one of the best.

Now, Nicknaming Pokémon is not always easy. Some Pokémon are just harder to nickname for some people than others. So now I ask, what are your Sigature Pokémon nicknames?

Disclaimer: this is not nicknames for your Signature Pokémon, but nicknames you always.usually use.

 

Here are a few of mine:

 

Shiny Gardevoir = Lucina (My favorite FE Princes, if not gaming princes. she also has Blue hair.

Roserade = Summer (Reference to Summer Rose, mother of Ruby Rose. Who is the Main Protagonist of RWBY)

Togekiss = Flügel der Freiheit/Flügel for short (it means Wings of Freedom)

Infernape = Zuko (should make sense)

Emboar = Iroh (Same reason as Nape. And Iroh is chubby like Emboar)

Serperior = Sniper (My first starters nickname. I just can't do anything else for it)

Klefki = Key Resonator (reference to Jack Atlas and his Resonator monsters)

Azumarill = Truck (It hits like a truck. nothing more to be said)

Mega Charizard X = Firewall (reference to Firewall Dragon)

Mega Charizard Y = Topologic (reference to Topologic Bomber Dragon)

Yanmega = Heather (SHELLY!)

Scolipede = Diesel (idk. I'm bad at nicknames)

Samurott = Jack (Captain Jack Sparow. Samurai Jack. It writes itself)

Venusaur = Fizzlebeef (the true savior of Mankind)

Mimikyu = Kevin (the singer of Ghost town is called Kevin Ghost. Mimikyu is a ghost)

Primarina = Azura/Shigure based on gender (FE Fates nicknames)

Lycanroc Dusk = Sif (The Great GreyWolf from Dark Souls)

 

And those are all the ones I could think of at the top of my head.

Well, the list would go like this:

 

Infernape - Jericho, or Y2J ( go figure )

Shiny Haxorus - Taylor 

Aegislash - Krivbeknih ( I know it  "Kremvh" would've been more fitting, as Kremvh is the melee weapon, and Krivbeknih is the book, but it sounds better )

Lycanroc Midnight - Shepherd ( from MW2, a loose end )

Luxray - Logan ( mostly due to the hair, reminds me of Wolverine )

Dragalge - Hemlock ( the poison )

Samurott - Zeke ( from InFamous ) 

Garchomp - Cole ( from InFamous, also. I know he used electricity,  but heck )

Archeops - Archer  ( I was watching "Archer" when I was thinking for a name )

Metagross - Excelsus ( from MGR Revengeance, due to its 4 legs )

Braviary - Patriot

Pidgeot - Hendricks

Mandibuzz - Sephora ( From the "Alien" movie )

Lucario - Mayday ( Female ) or Richter ( Male )

Steelic - Jasmine ( Female ) or Colossus ( Male )

Swampert - Everglades

 

And there are more, but I think these are enough.

Blaziken - Soryu - variant of Shoryuken, Ryu and Ken's signature uppercut

Swalot - Poisma - the poison skill from Persona

Alakazam - Cognitus - from the word "cognition"

Steelix - Metal Gear - from Twitch Plays Pokemon

Nidoking - Fonzie - also from Twitch Plays Pokemon

Gardevoir - Aria - I guess that's the first thing that came to mind when I thought of her nickname, since she's a fairy and all

Charizard - Shinryu - the dragon from the FInal Fantasy series

Metagross - Maverick - from the Mega Man series

Blastoise - Kamui - partly inspired by Naruto, partly because it's close to "kame", japanese word for turtle

I usually forget to nickname things or can't decide on one.  These are the only two I've used more than once.

 

 

Haunter/Gengar-  Spooks-   it's so stupidly generic that I love it.

 

(mentioned this next one quite a few times, but one more time shouldn't hurt)

 

Gardevoir-  Granzon-   named after the black-hole creating mech from the Super Robot Wars: Original Generation(s) series, matching up with Gardevoir's Pokedex lore

Blastoise (has to be female): Big Mama

Zangoose: Killercat (<3)

Primarina: Brioncé (#teampopplio)

Solgaleo/Lunala: Nebby (that's so cliché, but I can't not do it xD)

Arcanine: doesn't really have a fixed nickname, but whatever the name will be, it'll HAVE to have "Doge" in it.
