I noticed that whenever I looked through the daycare offspring of my Pokemon, nobody ever named any of them, so I was curious... Do you nickname your Pokemon on here? I always do, and I find it a little sad nobody named them.

This sounds like it was meant for the GPX+ section. General Pokemon is meant for discussing the games.

I nickname Shiny pokemons, special pokemons obtained from friends, unsummonable legendaries (if I dont have one yet) and the ones that are good in Vs. Seeker or Battle tower/subway.

I nickname those Pokemon which I'm sure I won't be abandoning within a year. These mostly include shiny mons, nice IV'd mons, favourite Legends and some Novelty mons.

Named my shinies, pokemon I need in Battle Tower/Vs. Seeker, and pokemon which I will need to be on Daycare later.
By naming them I feel like my fondness is growing in them, it's hard to do the exchange event with my shiny pokes, but I had to. :") -------------------- Meet me at GPX+ I'm currently unavailable to trade away Sky Gifts!

I nickname my shinies, and the Pokemon I use in the battle tower. I do keep one of every legendary I have, but I'm just not paying as much attention to them

I have pre-planned nicknames for every unique species I obtain, including all 28 Unown. This doesn't always include alternate forms, but sometimes it does. Wow. I'd be interested to see that list I nickname a lot of my 'mons: all my shinies, legendaries and novelties. And some others, if I have a reason in my head for it. I describe them too, but I want to go back and redo a lot of those :V -------------------- |

Like most of the people that have replied, I only nickname shinies and Pokemon that I like, and sometimes novelties if I can think of a cute nickname for them~

I usually nickname Pokemon when I'm not on a hatching spree. Though I almost always name the ones I have in my party. But sometimes I try to give a name from on the tip of my hat. Like naming my Manaphy.... Marine.
Say has anyone else had trouble coming up with (good) names at the start? |

My shinies, legendaries, battlers, and "Original Six" (the first six Pokemon I got, ever) have nicknames, but sometimes I'll nickname a Pokemon if it's special to me for some reason, or just because I feel like it.

I nickname some of them [ex. Deadpool the Yveltal, Orion the shiny Togekiss], at least. Really, whether I nickname a Pokémon or not depends on my current mood + if I can think of a good name for a 'Mon.

I do name my Pokemon every so often, particularly noteworthy Pokemon. Examples include my first Pokemon on the site, novelties, and Shiny Pokemon (if I ever find any).

I always put a name on a shiny pokemon, always trying to mimic the pokemon's real name, like a female Tyranitar and call her Tanya, just an example, I like this way haha

I'm always surprised to hear when people say they don't nickname their pokemon. Like others mentioned here, I nickname them if I'm attached to them at all, though sometimes it takes me a while to come up with a good name.

Typically I just nick name them their original names and doubles I leave them without nick names.
