Dokusa sounds very Venuasaur-like too! Very round and large sounding! ^o^

All my pokemon have very weird names, but I'll just mention the weirdest. In my LeafGreen version, I named my Sneasel Shui. I don't know why, I just thought of it at the time because I read it on some website a little earlier.

I never name mines,I don't see the point in it.
Customization, personality, a better ring, flow... many points to it. ;)

And well... I like to nickname a few Pokémon of mine. :)

Bellossom - Kireihana (I like the ring her japanese name has.)
Blastoise - Aquarius (Star-related nickname.)
Gardevoir - Gardy (Just a shortened name. Fits her, even... :))
Salamence - Etowa-Ryu (Star Dragon in Japanese. :D)
Pinsir - Crusher (Sounds tough, and couldn't think of a star-related name for him...)
Jolteon - Sparkster (Nice ring...)
Magmar - Solaris (Star-related again. :D)
Metagross - Alpha (Star-related... =o)
Steelix - Terrato (Cool ring, and greek-rooted.)
Hitmonchan - Apollo (Star-related. XD.)
Gengar - Sirius (Take a wild guess. ;))

A few were chosen based off a few characters in my own fictional story. :eek:

I named my Scizor Zero after my favorite character. My Blastoise was named Big Blue for awhile, but I changed it back to his natural name.

As a rule I usually don't nickname my Pokemon. However I always make an exception for shiny Pokemon. My Pelipper from my friend is named Green (creative, huh?) and my Dusclops from my friend is Rare Red (a little more creative). My own, self-caught Linoone is named Ziggy. I thought that was a great name for a Zigzagoon-Linoone Pokemon.
