I just take the first letter in a Pokemon's final evolution's name and make their nickname start with the same letter. So my Torchic is named Bert, my Zigzagoon is named Larry, my Ralts is named Gerome, you get the idea. |

My best name remains Super-Fish the Mudkip, but I've had some other cool ones that escape me at the moment. Whatever sort of fits the Pokemon in question, usually nouns, is about as thematic as it gets for my teams. |

My two best have to be Perseus the Gallade, and Gala the (female) Gardevoir. These are recurring names that I use almost every time. |

I name essentially every Pokemon I catch with something either thematic or based on their name if I can't think of anything fitting. That'd be too many names tho, but my teams in X and OR respectively were named thus: Greninja - Hanzo Charizard - Brimstone Beedrill - Sting Raichu - Electra Lucario - Romulus Tyrantrum - Nidhoggr Blaziken - Sol Shiftry - Mokushi Flygon - Terra Relicanth - Ankh Metagross - Unnamed since it was the shiny event one. Would've named it something like Intel or a string of characters signifying mass production Crobat - Rogue Honorable mentions, Pokemon that I like to use: Murkrow - Piotr Quagsire - Baron Sableye - Sanguine Durant - Skitter Zoroark - Kurama Noctowl - Gryff And not really mine but rather my sister's, but since I use those... : Delphox - Katy Talonflame - Pilo |

Being a person that played a whole lot of tabletop games, while rarely I give nicknames to my pokemon, I ended up to name a bunch of them after either some of my characters (or familiars/pets/whatever), friends of mine, or pets I owned IRL. Sometimes, though, I just threw some random reference here and there. I nicknamed once a male Audino (which had only healing/helping moves) with the name of Mr. Rogers when I finally ended up catching one, for example. |

Yenek has the correct reference there. Also something relevant, my ORAS starters seem to be named by a theme of Sun, Moon/Ocean, Earth. I like it so far, might keep it for the next runs I do, whatever game that may be. |

I don't really theme-name. However, I've nicknamed so many different pokemon over so many games that I have trouble remembering them. Here's a few that I can think of off the top of my head... Seto-Blastoise: was my starter in leafgreen and my trainer name was Kaiba. I was a big Yu-Gi-Oh fan at the time. Skorchy-Blaziken: My starter from Ruby. Flygon Jin: Just as it says on the tin. Maxim-Zangoose: One of my team in Ruby, and again in X. |
