Torchic-Mr.Chicken

Oshawatt-Mr.Otter

Tepig-Mr.Pig

My Chespin was named Rabbattack because I was drawing pictures of possible evolutions of the starters. Chesnaught was Bandillion a bandit armadillo with an eye mask. Rabbattack was a rabbit in trousers.

All my fire starters always get named Rainier, all my grass starters always get called Hawthorn, and all my water starters always get called Molan

As clarification, Rainier is a volcano in Washington state, Hawthorn is a tree, and Molan means "servant of the storm"

Once I got a whole team to be named off of plants and I named my Beautifly Butternut and I liked it so much that now my butterfly pokemon get named Butternut

I also always name my Vespiquen Tuilelaith, which means "abundance princess" although she's a queen but I say it's close enough~

I name mine after FE and Touhou characters.

And in X/Y, I put my name as Eliwood and told my new friends to call me "my Lord". It was glorious and hilarious.

Also Durandal the Honedge.

There's also the [fragment of name]ea and naming them after notable characters (ie gym leaders) that use them.

I have a pancham named toad… because panda was taken. (My vulpix panda actually doesn’t have a dumb name though, it sounds dumb but it’s very smart if you think about it) I also have a steenie named berry2, a drednaw named glooshtick, and a xatu named bird. I named Eternatus blueguy and when I played Pokémon Emerald I decided to name my treeko…. Adel (or Addl, Addle, Adle, Adl, Addel, I only remember what it sounded like) By the way, if the nickname wasn’t capitalized in this list, it isn’t capitalized.

I'll never be able to get over what I named the Dugtrio I loved using back when I was like 11. It was Sasuage. It wasn't even spelled wrong on purpose I legit just didn't know how to spell sausage. Haunts me to this day.

Considering I make up names in the moment most of the time, I usually don't have obvious candidates. Exceptions exist though. Looking at my AS file I have:

The ALL CAPS CREW

Spoiler

Cofagrigus called IT'S A TARP! (Well I'm pretty sure that's intentional.)

Muk called THE THING! (Well, don't you think you're clever? You're really not.)

A Garbodor named STAND BACK! (I am a..... not a fan that's for sure)

Klingklang named WALLOP! (No idea what I was going for)

Castform named ALL THE RAIN

Two separate Pelippers, WROARR Peeko and DAT WINGSPAN

Grumpig named BOUNCE! (I used this guy in my playthrough)

Staryu named Star O' WAR!

Darmaniatan named 555 GFY (this is under the category of this one broke out of multiple balls)

Name allusions aren't clever:

Spoiler

Pidgeot named 2nd Coming (Bird Jesus was Twitch Play Pokemon referencing)

Boldore named Rokey (I must have been trying to make a joke about it's preevo being a rock with what I thought looked like an eye)

Dewgong named Gu Don

Jigglypuff named Jegglyperf

Sawk named Pawnch (Should have gotten a Throh named Flling)

Alomomola named Medpakakapdem (I actually like this one)

Sawsbuck named Bambiberker (This too)

Latios named Latinos, Latias named Latinas

Stop being literal:

Spoiler

Lombre named Little Stool (referring to the fact Lotad could be a seat)

Azumarill named Marril Lynch (I know, right?)

Pichu named Machu Pichu

Zebstrika named Lightstripe

Magnezone named Magnets!

Clawitzer named Blaster (Sheesh)

Crustle named Stone Hostel

A Gurdurr named Lumber Lift (Someone had evolved)

Octillery named Pop Dart (Another evolution victim)

Braviarys getting names relating to America (I regret these in particular)

Hydreigon named No Eye Willy (One Eyed Willy wouldn't work with this one)

I thought I was being clever

Spoiler

Spinda named ()⤸(Rightround. Geddit?)

Torkoal called Reticen (Reticent? Ah?)

Porygon named Drop-tables (This one should be evolved)

Wobuffet named Yawei

Gastrodon named Es Kar Go (.... Yea)

Magcargo named Moltoff (Why molting? From the shell? The lava from the snail trail?)

Growlithe named Barkolemew (This is not a cat. Stop it me, though it's more of a Bartholomew)

The rest:

Spoiler

Pinsir named Henny (Honestly not sure about this one)

Donphan named Not a Ginger (referring to the first not-LoR Gyarados shiny I ever saw, from my brother's file)

Apparently I was trash with my AS names.
