@walpurgis if you plan on using Metagross please name it Promethium for me.

Good ole Dragonlance. Good taste. And I have to say that's a great nickname!

Hiya folks! So, after considering which pokemon I tend to most relate with (after viewing this post), I found that the majority of the pokemon that I tend to most associate with are those that I give fun and unique nicknames. So the question here is, for one reason or another, do you have any cool pokemon nicknames that you tend to give to certain 'mon? Also, why did you choose said nickname and what significance does it have to you? To share some of mine, ever since ORAS, I have given my Gardevoir the honorary title of Titania, queen of all fairies. And for one reason or another, it always seems to be instrumental in almost all of my victories in which I use it. Another one of mine would be how I always have to nickname my Roserade Rosé (I am moderately upset that you can't put in accents in Reborn). And a nickname I made in Reborn for Hawlucha is Hawk Hogan, the greatest wrestler of all time, brother! Seriously though, I haven't even used a Hawlucha until recently in Reborn and it has quickly become one of my all time favourites. So everyone, feel free to share all your best (and worst) pokemon nicknames!

I mostly try to mix up my team for each game, but there are a few stars that I tend to use if I can get them. Dragonite is my dragon of choice. It my official Poke-mascot! Roserade's one of my fave's and is pretty much the only grass type that I'd ever use (until Rowlet came along). Lucario's always a choice pick, especially if I can get a Lucarionite. Although in Reborn I have been using Hawlucha in my main team rather than Lucario. Gardevoir is probably my most commonly used 'mon since it's both my psychic and fairy of choice. And my favourite looking pokemon. Ever since it got its fairy typing, I've even begun to worship it as Titania (no not that Titania), the fairy goddess of pokemon and the divine image of grace. Although in my newest run in E17, I must admit I have been using Alolan-Ninetails rather than Gardevoir. I have strayed from the path of greatness, and may Titania have mercy on my soul. Although I can add that Ralts is officially my favourite starter (after millions of resets trying to get it as a jackpot starter in Rejuvenation). So I guess you could call any of them my sig.

Welcome Ember! Do enjoy your stay here and may your art be ever glorious!

After recently blowing through E17, I have to say Titania and Taka. I think that Taka's just a real sweetheart. Going through the Reshiram route, his dialogue is quite interesting and really depicts his life. He was born into his own hell and listening to how he copes with it, in addition to coming out and aiding your character really makes me feel for the guy. As for Titania, well, she comes off as an ass, but despite her cynical nature, she really comes off as a caring individual. During the events before the WTC, she spent her time dealing with the Meteor threat by giving them false intel and even shouldering the work of dealing with them to herself. During the events of the WTC, you get to see her selflessness (towards Amaria) despite her own well being. Seeing the events of the Reshiram route, its rather nice to watch her begin to trust the player and begin to start acting for her own well-being (despite resulting in Amaria's breakdown). Her most common phrase is "I feel like shit" and to actually watch her feel good about herself is quite heartwarming. So overall I just find those two to be the most developed and interesting characters in Reborn. Before E17, I'd probably take Cal over Taka. I loved his redemtion in Ametrine. As for gym leaders before E16, I'd either say Adrienn and Shelly. Adrienn because I find xys resolve to rebuild Reborn quite admireable. Out of all the gym leaders, I feel like Adrienn is the one that has the greatest difference towards the well-being of the citizens of Reborn. And Shelly cuz I find her adorable and she needs love. Also why is Terra on the list twice? I understand she's both a gym leader and a Team Meteor member, but why? Yeah me too. I think this is why we can't have nice things. True, Cain is an excellent character. He should be on the list. Maybe as "other" or something for characters like him, Anna, and Laura. EDIT: Oh, he is up. whoops. I vote for Cain now.

Hiya Shaggy! Welcome to Reborn and do enjoy your stay here!

Howdy Caimie! Welcome to the forums of Reborn! Worry not! For exclamation mark are the greatest form of punctuation there is!!!!!!!!!!!!1!!!!!!!1!!!!!!!1!!!11!!!!1!1!1one

Hiya, welcome to Reborn! Do enjoy your stay!

Howdy there! Welcome (back) to Reborn!

Hiya Khouji! Welcome to Reborn! Enjoy your stay here!

Part two! Everybody vote for Budew! Also glad that Aegislash and Lucario are in the lead.

Question not the folly that is the inner mechanisms of Ame's mind. For it serves as the hearthstone for all of Reborn. So in other words, why not? So no one likes Spearow, Nidorina, Alolan-Diglett, Geodude, and Voltorb. RIP I'd be lying if I said I wasn't bothered by the fact that people actually like normal Diglett, but oh well. Also really glad Flygon's staying up in the top 3. Show 'em you don't need to be a pseudo to be a dragon!

How many times can I vote for Dragonite? Yes. Ampharos is beautiful. It's Oddish in German. Also, HEIL MYRALPA!

I can confirm that Zangoose is in the wild post city restoration (available in Peridot and Obsidia). As for Zoura, the event no longer involves the alley, but I'm not entirely sure if it is still available.

Howdy Zebra! Welcome to the forums of Reborn! Do enjoy your stay! Also, might I recommend a Wash-Rotom for your trip through the desert? It'll definitely help you out with all the ground types you'll encounter (and it has levitate).

Howdy Contego! Welcome to Reborn! Do enjoy your stay here!

Well, since I suck at choosing the most of anything, I'll just go with the top 3. Ribombee is just adorable. @andracass Yeah, the Eeveeloutions are pretty damn cute too. My favourite would have to be Umbreon. Both in effectiveness and looks. And finally, to throw an oddball in (pun intended), I'll go with Spheal. I mean, it's a baby seal. How much cuter can you get?

Howdy Kaylee! Welcome to Reborn! Hope you have a great time here.

Hiya Rowan! Welcome to Reborn! I love your profile pic. Ribombee is adorable! Also, watch out. Cardboard crack (and by that I mean Magic: The Gathering) can be very bad for your wallet. Nevertheless, do enjoy your stay here!

@Swampellow Alright, thanks for the clarification! Sorry if my previous comment came off as a little rude, just trying to make sense of the situation to the best of my ability. Yeah, it seems the eggs now are super complicated. Also by early game events, you mean like how Espurr is now a 50/50 for it or Minccino? What other events you know are different?

Yep! I'm assuming that Swampellow confused that one with the Obsidia egg, so I guess it's a 50/50 for Cacnea or Bronzor.

@DarkMasterKendall It was in the wrecked train in Crysolia, no other requirements. The train is kinda hidden though... (yes, a giant ass train is well hidden) The train is behind a tree that when you walk into it disappears.

But I got a Ducklett...... well, thanks for the info on the other egg!
