Ragnos, The Male Magikarp
and Rex, The Male Shinx

Spankums/Quagsire - My friend named this one. It's my favorite Pokemon, and a very unique and funny name. When I went to a tournament, it put a smile on everyone's face. (And everyone started rooting for him).

Shady/Staraptor - Just a cool nickname I thought of.

Darknut/Weavile - A very cool nickname. It's so cool, one of my friends started nicknaming all of his sneasles that...-_-
