The Nicknaming Thread

Status
Not open for further replies.
I only give nicknames to those that I actually raise properly, here are a few of mine -

METAGROSS- ADAMANTINE
Unbreakable/an extremely hard substance, befitting for Metagross I thought;3

MAGNEZONE- Magnestorm
Just 'Magnetic' and 'storm'. Well I liked it;P

GYARADOS- Chaostorm
Like above, just a combination of two words, 'Chaos' and 'storm'.

SCIZOR- Ragnarok
So called because Scizor's sleek red body reminded me of the Ragnarok from FF8...

TOGEKISS- halcyon
'halcyon' basically means 'Peaceful, Gentle, and Calm' which I found perfect for Togekiss' nature:]
It also happens to be a bird from Greek Myth.

LINOONE- Wet Willie
Um, this was never ment to sound 'rude' or anything:p
I called him so because he is a Water themed Linoone, caught in a Dive Ball and knows Surf, Thunder, Icy Wind, and Rain Dance.
Novelty, but one of my favourites regardless;3
