Naming!

[cheyinka]

So I was curious about how other people name their Pokémon. I've had little luck getting anything nicknamed off the GTS or Wonder Trade, even with asking for a nickname in the message box in X. On the other hand, I see people elsewhere giving their Pokémon really clever names, while I end up usually having a clever name for my starter and then just going with boring things like "Grassasaurus" for Bulbasaur or "Fairy-Gem ♦" for my Carbink.

What do the rest of you do? :)

(the Bellsprout I carry in my Pokéwalker is named Leafy Belle; I can't decide if that's clever or boring.)

*snerk* Well, a lot of the time I go oh hey that's totally $character, and make a team based around that, rather than the other way around? Yeah. Probably not the most effective way of choosing stuff, but you know.

I should do that! Odds are good I will get Z or X' or whatever, and I should really do that with that game.
