I've nicknamed too many Pokemon to think about listing off nicknames, but I almost always do themes with my party nicknames. Generally all characters from a particular work of fiction, but in the run of LeafGreen I currently have going I did a bunch of my favorite female characters, and I've also done music themes, nicknaming all of my Pokemon after songs and whatnot.

Though honestly the nickname I think I'm still most fond of is the one I gave to the first Absol I found in Ruby version, which was "ABSOLutely."

No, I will never get sick of dumb Pokemon puns, particularly not that one.

These are for Pokémon Y.

My Greninja is Al Capone.
Fletchling is John Lennon.
Pikachu is Ringo (Ringo Segundo didn't fit in the space given).
Slowpoke is Turbo Lover.
Azumarine is Tina Turner.
Charizard is Commander.

There's more, but these are the ones I remember from the top of my head.

Gardevoir - Brick
Regirock - Stallone
Hydreigon - K.Ghidorah
Scizor - Cutler
Greninja - Ezio
Tyranitar - Godzilla

And my Torterra had the misfortune to be nicknamed back when I was really uncreative with nicknames. It's name is Green Guy.
You may point and laugh.

If you thought that was bad, back when I was like 7 or 8, in my Diamond game, I named a Geodude Rock. Yeah, most creative name ever.

I typically like to maintain a part of their original name when I nickname.

In X, went with a chess theme for my guys-
Chesnaught- Chesmate
Pyroar- Pyrook
Clawitzer- Clawitzpawn
Aegislash- Aegiknight
Slurpuff- Slurqueen
Charizard- Charishop

In my first game, Red, I named my Venusaur after the Venusaur in the first Pokémon movie. Unfortunately, I had no idea that his name was "Bruteroot" and I affectionately named mine "Brootroot." Other stars from that game were Pidgit (Pidgeot) and Raiadichu (Raichu, pronounced Rye-a-dee-choo).

And so on. Not the best, but good when you are speedrunning and can't think of names...

EDIT: Although I usually don't catch Pokemon other than my starter and the legendary when I am speedrunning. I always name my Treecko "Twig", though.

I've nicknamed a a good amount of my Pocket Monsters in my time playing this series; here are the ones I can remember off the top of my head:
:004:>:005:>:006:: Salamander (because mythology)
:142:: Dactus (you know, Aerodactyl? :p)
:025:>:026:: Elecamouse (very punny, I know. :p)
:183:>:184:: Mousse (because fairy type + sweet dessert)
My Rayquaza in Emerald was named "Quetzalcoatl" (one's a winged serpent, the other's a flying serpent; it made sense at the time. :p)

HOW DARE YOU TAKE MY NICKNAME FOR FLYGON!!!

. . . Just kidding! But I find it hilarious that someone else thought of that name for a pokémon synonymous with sandstorms!
Yeah I use it because of the sand stream ability. I actually saw yours and was like "WAIT I NAME MY TYRANITAR THAT!"

I always name my :094: (whom I train in every game without fail) "friend" in various languages. Because that's what the ghostly dude has been for me since I was little. :3

Other than that, my nicknames devolve into really dumb stuff. But I still try to have nicknames for most of the dudes in my party.

The only time I ever name them something is if I have a ton of duplicates and I've bred one a certain way - I'll usually name him or her something different. Otherwise, almost every single Pokemon has the default name.

Usually my Pokemon get nicknames based on Warcraft heroes. I had a good run with Kael'thas the Cyndaquil.

I admit that I've given a lot of Pokemon weird nicknames and have sent them over Wonder Trade, mainly for giggles.

The names include:

Grimer: "CONKER BOSS"
Marill: "AHORA MISMO!"
Many Pokemon: "AAAAAAAAA"


The list goes on. I've also received a lot of Pokemon with weird names. Like a Fennekin nicknamed "75", a Beautifly named "É", and a Smeargle named "pbs"

All I can say is that the people who received my Pokemon must have been awfully confused, heh.
