Jp. Black (they're now on my Ger. White Version)
Bambi the Sawsbuck - pretty common nickname for Deerling & Sawsbuck I guess.haha
Miju the Samurott - Miju for Mijumaru which is the Japanese name of Oshawott.
Daru the Darmanitan - Daru for Darumakka/Darumaka/Hihidaruma.
Nazca the Sigilyph - because it resembles a Nazca bird.
Taro the Galvantula - I was gonna name it Tara for tarantula (it is also female) but I accidently wrote Taro, then I got used to Taro and kept it that way.^^
Kibo the Haxorus - Kibo for Kibago which is the Japanese name of Axew.

Ger. White:
Serpi the Serperior - I was very creative.. the German name of Snivy is Serpifeu and the German name for Serperior is Serpiroyal so it is really just shortened.
Fasan the Unfezant - German word for pheasant..
Shuu the Mienshao - its German name is Wie-Shu, so yeah..xD
Yorki the Scoutland - pretty lame again, but whatever..
Leonardo the Carracosta - Ninja Turtles reference.
Pandora the Scolipede - its Japanese name is Pendoraa and its German name is Cerapendra..

I know, my names are pretty lame, but I like them anyway.^^

It'll be a Timid nature with
- Fire Blast
- Will-o-Wisp
- Sunny Day
- Rest

As I have yet to start breeding, I don't know the characteristic yet. I will keep breeding untill it's a female with Timid nature, so these things are certain.

Some of my nicknames:

Dewott = Rotter
I wanted to name it something similar to "otter," so I chose this in order to make fun of it. :p

Pansear = Basalt
Because basalt is an igneous rock, which are said to be "born of fire."

Munna = Organs
Well...it kinda looks like an organ to me. O__o

Tranquil = Roast
It makes me think about eating meat.

Karrablast = Screw You
Because it looks like a wrench. :D

Sawsbuck = Starbucks
The names sound similar, so I decided to go with Starbucks for fun.

I havn't got white personally yet but my friend let me play it for a bit when he came round my house. I called my patrat Timone after the guy from the lion king. I also called my Woobat Woo-Woo because my friend hates them and nicknaming it made him even more annoyed.

Semi-random names for my team:

Emboar: Pokabu
Japanese name for Tepig, like the sound of it.

Liepard: Tenebrae
Cat-like being of Darkness from Tales of Symphonia 2

Crustle: Hermie
Named after childhood hermit crab (I wasn't that creative back then)

Simisage: Broccoli
Pansage's head looked like Broccoli to me.

Sigilyph: Creepozoid
It looked creepy to me, and also after the movie Creepozoids, reviewed by the Cinema Snob.

Sismitoad: Pimple
It's covered in bumps, and also in honor of the Battletoads.

Although he doesn't have an in-game nickname, I usually "call" my Gigalith "Megalith" or "Gigamilk" just for fun.

I nicknamed my starter Pokemon, Oshawott his name is Aqua. My Pansear's name is Pyro. I also caught a Lilipup and a Purrloin and named them Bernie after my dog and Buster after my cat.
