Names names names...

Let's see... *works nickname magic*

Yannmega: Pest Killer... okay, but try to incorporate something about machinery...

Gible: Hmmmm. I think that fantasy names are best for dragon types... I just read a book with a dragon called Raedon, how's that?

Shiny Salamence: Is it a guy or a girl? I can't choose until I know.

Carnivine: Demeter. I like greek myths, and Demeter is the goddess of plants.

Venomoth: Dusken. Don't know why, but it seems to fit.

Female Ninetales: I have one named Mariko, try something like Natsuki or Mirele.

Male Quagsire: Try Flotsam, or Shoreus.

Cloyster: Leseee now.. Try Jetsam, or Darkperl.

*Nicknaming magic wears off*
That's all I got.

I nickname anything I use competitively, so I have like 50 Pokemon w/ nicknames. Here's a few:

Lucario: Iron Fisted
Arcticuno: Fridgidair
Nidoking: Baron Luis


I need some names too. Heres the Pokemon:

Magby
Phanphy
Leafeon
Carnivine
Treeko
Slowpoke
Dustox

If No one has gotten to this yet, I'll help you out. I do most of my nicknames in Swedish now, around 10/50 nicknamed so far, and I'm changing the ones I can at a steady rate.

Magby~ Branna (Burn); Barnen Av Eld (Child Of Fire); Vulkan (Volcano)
Phanphy~ Smuts (Dirt); Elefant (Elephant); Son Om Jord/Dotter Om Jord (Son Of Earth/Daughter Of Earth)
Leafeon~ Skog (Forest); Plantan Hund (Plant Dog); Lov Barnen (Leaf Child)
Carnivine~ Gud Av Plantera (God Of Plants); Vagglusen Atet (Bug Eater); Vin (Vine)
Treeko~ Gron Hud (Green Skin); Kvist Tugga (Twig Chewer); Trad Dvaljas (Tree Dweller)
Slowpoke~ Langsam Puff (Slow Poke); Steg Bakom (Step Behind); Lognaktig I Vanta (Lying In Wait)
Dustox~ Mal Av Raseri (Moth Of Fury); Toxin En Pa Himmelen (Toxin In The Sky); De Gamla Mask (Aged Maggot)


I remove all the accents, which may have changed the meaning of some of the words. Be wary if you are going to use these in battle against a Swede. Add spaces where necessary to make the longer ones fit.

I don't nickname my Pokemon anymore. Once I nicknamed a female Geodude after my GF then she broke up with me about a month later. I hated nicknames after that

I always nickname pokemon that I'm planning on using It makes it more personal. ^__^

Some of my nicknames of note are:
Slamsady the Dragonite
Ruble the Arcanine
Bird Flu the Lapras

...Er... They all have stories behind them, sort of. Slamsady was what I nicknamed a dragonite on yellow which was the first pokemon I ever manually trained to level 100. Ruble was my cousin's golden retriever's name. As for Bird Flu, it has pokerus and I thought it was a random/funny nickname. XDD

I have a lot of other ones, those are just the fist that came to mind.

EDIT: I also have a Garchomp named Sassafras because it has a sassy nature. My friends made fun of me for that one. xD

I namd my Porygon Dual-Layer
 

O Fortuna

Velut luna.
The best possible names for the Porygon line are all related and are what they should have been called if whoever was responsible for the English names was as clever as me (although not even I would've come up with Relicanth):

Porygon - Cybird
Porygon2 - Cybird 2.0
PorygonZ - Cybird DX

Oh yes, you know these names are the best.
