Dragoncat Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 (edited) Has anybody else done this? Example 1: I was doing an Emerald run awhile back where I named everything after Zelda characters. Niko: swampert Tetra: breloom Midna: mightyena Pipit: swellow Gondo: manectric Etc, there were others but I don't feel like listing them all. Example 2: Xenoblade characters on Go. Soon she'll be promoted from princess to empress...just a little longer... I freaking love this guy and it makes me sad how little attention he gets in the fandom. After Melia evolves I'll make him run laps for his own evolution. Got this gal during the squirtle community day! I made sure I caught a female with good CP. Planned additions: Shulk(lucario), Dunban(gallade). Gen 4 has to be added first of course. Share your own and stuff!

Anacybele Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 (edited) I named my Sun team after Disney princesses and Disney princess related characters! Primarina: Arie (because it was male, so it couldn't be Ariel) Mudsdale: Philippe (Belle's horse) Lycanroc: Bruno (Cinderella's dog) Tsareena: Tiana (because she's my favorite princess and I had to name something after her! Tsareena is also kinda related to food which Tiana works with since she owns a restaurant) Alolan Ninetales: Elsa (obvious lol) Alolan Marowak: Naveen (because favorite Disney prince. Yeah, I'm in love with the royal frog couple! :P If Lilo & Stitch was a princess movie though, this guy would've been David for sure) Alolan Raichu: Jaq (one of Cinderella's mouse friends. This one was later replaced though, sorry Jaq!) I also named a Braviary Ike. :P As for GO: Spoiler Of course I had to name two after my favorite FE knights! Especially Frederick and of course Frederick the Aggron is the strongest I have because. <3 Spoiler I got a shiny Blastoise during the previous Community Day! Keegan comes from Medal of Honor: Vanguard, a Wii game. He's the character you play as. MoH was the only shooter series I ever played much and it was rather fun. Spoiler And a couple special Raichu with pony names! lol I named them after MLP ponies because of their themes. Second anniversary Raichu wears a brown hat like Applejack and party hat Raichu has a party theme and Pinkie Pie is a party pony. :P I also have a lot of others named after characters from other fandoms, but that'd be a lot of screenshots, so I'll just list the rest. Aerodactyl: Petrie (from The Land Before Time franchise) Ninetales: Vixy (from The Fox and the Hound) Kingler: Dr. Claw (from Inspector Gadget. Also because of Kingler's big claw lol) Halloween Raichu: Jerry (from Tom and Jerry) Ariados: May (Spiderman's daughter, who's also named after Spidey's aunt May) Gengar: Freako (one of the Boo Brothers from Scooby Doo Meets the Boo Brothers) Sunglasses Blastoise: GI Joe (the GI Joe franchise) Golduck: Donald (Donald Duck, not Donald Trump lol) Magmar: Zuko (from Avatar: The Last Airbender) Clefable: Merryweather (one of the three fairies from Disney's Sleeping Beauty) Seadra: Azura (FE's Azura) Arbok: Sir Hiss (from Disney's Robin Hood) Swellow: Jaqomo (from Thumbelina) Seaking: Marlin (from Finding Nemo) Vaporeon: Bubbles (from the Powerpuff Girls, though this Vaporeon is male. I want to name a Leafeon Buttercup and a Sylveon Blossom when those become available and I get them too lol) And that's all of them right now. :P Edited July 16, 2018 by Anacybele Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dismissed Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 I'm naming my Lunala "Luna". It's just a really neat name. It's also a tradition of mine to always give Lunala the same nickname, which has also seeped into my fanfic lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magical Glace Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 I like naming Pokémon after Gym Leaders who use them. Except Vivillon. Viola isn't allowed by the censors... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything with "viol" is censored because it means "rape" in French, IIRC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know why the censors refuse it, haha. It's just annoying that I can't use a name from elsewhere in the game because of that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sasori Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 Most of my Pokemon are video game themed or after myth stuff. I don't remember most, but here are some. Two of my Pokemon where called Hanbei. Roserade because he reminded me of the white haired, mask wearing Hanbei and Meowstick since the Samurai Warriors Hanbei is a fan of cats. I called my Alolan Raticate Profiteur since it reminded me of a certain fat, rat faced midget in Bravely Default. Pokemon using Powder moves like Venemoth, Vileplume, etc are usually called Derosa And sometimes I just call my Pokemon after a Fire Emblem character. Early bug types are named after Jagens and I remember my Solrock being called Zealot because his stats and jointime reminded me of him Edit: Oh yeah I called my Psyduck Corrin since it looked like he wasn't very bright.

DodgeDusk Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 I named my goon squad in Sun after the main characters in Trails of Cold Steel. If I'm remembering correctly, it's: Albarea, the Crabominable Claussell, the Lyncanroc Craig, the Primarina Regnitz, the Vikavolt Schwarzer, the Turtonator Armbrust, the Alolan Marowak Can't forget Valimar, the Zygarde, too. Probably a few others, but I can't recall them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragoncat Posted July 26, 2018 Author Share Posted July 26, 2018 We have an empress! LONG LIVE EMPRESS MELIA OF ALCAMOTH! ...And we have this good doggo boy. I swear his spirit animal is a German shepherd because he's fierce, protective, and a badass. This works better than a gallade anyway, because he's got that sibling bond with Fiora now, both being canines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZeManaphy Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 I usually nickname my Pokemon off characters because I'm bad at nicknames lol. Here we go: FE nicknames: Primarina: Azura, Shigure ( Had a female in my Moon playthrough, all my other Primarina are males. ) Goodra: Kana Altaria: Hinoka Haxorus: Siegfried Palkia: Corrin Lunala: Nohr Solgaleo: Hoshido Togekiss: Sumia ( Though mine is a boy. ) Lopunny: Yarne Gengar: Sallya ( Used her Japanese name because I already had an accident Gengar with her English nickname. ) Braviary: Subaki Mandibuzz: Severa Celesteela: Kjelle, Effie Dragonite: Grima Kommo-O: Hana, Ryoma Salazzle: Nina Bisharp: Epione ( Went with the Japanese name because I already used her English name. ( Glaceon: Felicia, Kaden Vaporeon: Silque Mismagius: Nyx Latias: Anthiese Slowking: Celica ( Mine is a girl) Lucario: Inigo Octillery: Laslow Ampharos: Lucius Whimsicott: Henry Volcarona: Delthea ( Mine is a boy. ) Naganadel: Gerome Ninetales-A: Selkie Both on Ultra Moon and GO: Disney Characters: Suicune: Aqua Greninja: Naveen Cresselia: Belle Mawile: The Beast! Lanturn: Lumiere Entei: Mufasa/Simba Thundurus: Jupiter Virizion: Artemis Book Characters ( Some overlap with previous categories) : Leafeon: Leafstar Espeon: Crookshanks Charizard and Rapidash: Apollo That's all on the top of my head. I don't have my 3DS because its on its way to Japan for capture card installation. @Anacybele I was wondering... How do you upload your photos? I want to show off my Alolan Ninetales, but Whenever I try uploading photos from my Phone or my laptop when I send those photos from my laptop; it says exceeds the size. Am I the only one who has this problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
