My question for all you guys is this: Do you have any nicknames you're really proud of? I've hatched a bunch of shinies in Y and I've nicknamed every one. My personal favorite is my shiny Gengar named Doopliss. If you get that reference I love you :D

For some reason as of late, don't know why, or where it cam from to suddenly think of it, but I've been obsessed with the word "Obelisk." The one term I know it from is Yu-Gi-Oh!. But I haven't played Yu-Gi-oh! in years. My parents made be get rid of all my Pokemon cards and Yu-Gi-Oh! Cards about five years ago. They also wanted me to get rid of my Game. Boy Advance and my Game Boy Color games when I wanted to get a DS Lite, mostly for Diamond and Pearl. But that's a story for a different time. Anyways, Obelisk "The Tormentor." A fitting name that I wanted to give my oh-so clever strategize Slaking that I WAS planning for the Special Inverse Battle Season...until I learned it was singles and not doubles. :X. And I've been caught up poke checking everything before Wifi shuts down. (By the way, it's May 20. Anyone have any clue when the exact time is that the service shuts down? Or has it already shut down?). Another one I've been holding on o if I ever get a Vileplume and run it in whatever tier it's in is "Despair." Just because it sounds fitting, and my parents always utter some one phrase that goes "...gloom, despair...agony..." In X, I had-ER, have, rather, a Malamar named Venus, and I named my Chespin/Chesnaught Philmore. BeCAUSE HE's SO HAPPY!! Actually, I just randomly came up with the name on the spot, like most of my nicknames, but it was actually something that I thought was clever, a good name, and fitting to the extent of how much credit Chespin never got, except the moment that everyone saw its final evolution.. I used to think Musharna was "Misharna." So now that's its permanent name from me. Oh, and how could I forget? My shiny Zebstrika is, "ZebSHINSTA!" and my shiny Ampharos is "Amphradiance. I can't think of anything else spectacular at the moment. Although Id is kind of undergo and evolution (no pun intended) with how I nicknamed stuff. When I was a kid, I would name stup like,much...Mudkip was "Mudskipper," Swampert was "Swampy," Pidgey/PIDGEOT was "Pidger," stuff like that. Then as I grew up, I abandoned nicknames. Then at one point I would give everyone on-the-spot nicknames, unless I liked their name as is. Nowadays, I never nickname right away, but when I intend to use something, I usually sprout one up in the next day or two. A few times, I would nickname a Pokemon when it asas special. Like when I got my first Critical capture, and didn't know how the heck I did it, since I bhadn't beaten the League yet, I found an Azumarill in the Black/White 2 Victory Road that was 10 levels higher than everything else in the wild there and higher than my Pokeemon, and just so happened to have an Adamant nature and Huge Power. And was a Crit Capture. Stuff like that...- OH!!!! Another one. I've gotten so frustrated and the Bug-Catching safari in G/S/C, but when I cam back to Crystal years ago and took it on from a new perspective, remembering that in-game randomized stats and weights determine wins and the Species itself, I randomly caught a Scythes. Since that Pokemon never won me anything in my life, as far as I can remember, I later caught a Paras and replaced Scyther, and decided to go with it. Of course, as I saw coming, I won, went berserk, and promptly named it "IMBIWINNIN!" Darn character limits... The VERY NEXT contest I entered, I decided to find and catch a Pinsir, pulling no stops. I somehow won again, and stuck to my trend and named it "CharleShn." (Charlie Sheen.). Again, why no more character?? :X *looks up* Oh MY...my bad...

I love nicknaming!! I always name my Gengar Grim, it is short, appropriate for Gengar and just sounds cool. I started nicknaming my Salamence Toothless after I watched How To Train Your Dragon (amazing movie, watch it if you haven't). I also name Cobalion, Terrakion, and Virizion Aqua, Terra, and Ven after Kingdom Hearts Birth By Sleep main characters :)
Some other nicknames I always use are Blaze, Inferno, Haunt, Aura, Lust, and Venom.
