Cinderace - Amatsuki - I´m not sure why, I thought it was cool. Plus "tsuki" refers to the moon, which rabbits are associated to.
Dubwool - Chuuya - Bungou Stray Dogs reference, for the character is the "King of Sheep".
Thievul - Dazai - Also from BSD. The character is cunning as a fox and some merchandise shows him as a kitsune.
Hatterene - Morgana - The legendary sorceress from King Arthur tales.
Female Meowstic - Tsuneko - A gloomy waitress from the book "No Longer Human". And sure, the "neko" (cat).
Shiny Galarian Rapidash - Lily - Delicate aspect and colors of the flower fit him perfectly.

I named my Scorbunny Robbie at first after Robbie the rabbit from Silent Hill. Then he became a Cinderace and I’m like “Yeah you’re Ronaldo now.” Especially after seeing him use Pyro Ball. That was so cool. Being Portuguese, I also felt like my heritage demands me to name him after a Portuguese soccer player

Got my six Kubfu and named him “Wavey” as I intend to evolve him using the Water Tower scroll.

I started a new save in Sword and I chose Scorbunny and named him Hotshot which I think is fitting given Scorbunny’s inspiration.

My Pincurchin in the game I actually nicknamed Duny after the Urchin Knight/Emhyr from Witcher.

I also nicknamed my Dracozolt, Wallace, cause he's in the wrong trousers.


Also nicknamed my Single-Strike Urshifu as Mando cause my GF nicknamed her Rapid-Strike Urshifu as Beskar.
