Why
I'd like for the rules to change, maybe make us pay to change them or something? Because I've gotten a lot of Pokemon with bad or dumb nicknames, like HeilHitler the Charmeleon(Whom I quickly bred and then released), DUBSTEP the Pawniard(In all caps and surrounded by hearts) and loser the Golett. Not to mention all the hatched Pokemon I've gotten through Wonder Trade with numbers for names.

Though I have gotten quite a few Pokemon with nicknames that I found nice or cute, like my Espurr named Reggie.

Yes. I get the part of why we can't change the name, but I really don't like it when I get Pokemon with ridiculous names.

Okay, if you go on Wonder Trade and get a shiny Zangoose named "Hskdneofk", would you be happy? If I'm the new trainer of this Pokemon, I should be able to rename it.

It would be nice. It's kind of annoying to get obnoxiously nicknamed Pokemon from wonder trade only to realize that you can't change it.
