Yeah. I usually do it in themes, too.

I'm playing Alpha Sapphire along with someone, for example. He's naming all of his 'mons after Dreamworks characters, and he told me that I should name all mine after Pixar characters. It's pretty fun.

And you know, you couldn't just name them after anyone. Unless you wanted to. I like to be creative about it, though. Like, I named a Banette Sid, for example. You know, the bratty kid who abused his toys in Toy Story? Because Banette is an abused toy. So it all kinda links together like that.

No but that's 'cos I don't play the pokemans

Deleted · December 24, 2014, 06:03:01 PM

I do.

And the name rater in OrAs is a Mass Effect fanboy. I named my Treko Kelly-087 and he told me to change the name to Tali'Zorah

Only on nuzlocks or theme teams

All the time. Typically characters from MGS.

But my comp Pokemon are always named cleverly, if I do say so myself.

It's a slow-building battle that escalates into all out war.

Just in Nuzlockes. They tend to be named after internet acquaintances.

OT yes I belive nuzlocking is the hardest thing I've tried in a videogame. I've only ever tried crystal version and emerald version. The newer games are way too easy. thats just my opinion

Verbatim · December 24, 2014, 07:38:09 PM

it's so easy dude lol

you're just bad

OBVIOUSLY

3rd gym on emerald is objectively the hardest thing in a pokemon game when you're Nuzlockeing with Treecko.

Verbatim · December 24, 2014, 07:49:01 PM

it's challenging, i'll give you that

i know more than i'm willing to admit about pokémon though, so i guess i just have an edge

You don't have 6 usable pokemon in x or y or ORAS
I'm not a fan of getting a magikarp and a air balloon rotem-f while other people get victini and speed boost blaziken

Verbatim · December 24, 2014, 08:06:08 PM

except all the pokémon you get are fully evolved and the levels are balanced out to make it fair

air balloon rotom-f is... the funniest thing i've ever heard in my life

I'll stop now. The joke has gotten stale and the forum will be more enjoyable for everyone if I stop going out of my way to be a dick to him

Luis · December 24, 2014, 11:42:43 PM

Miia · December 24, 2014, 11:48:31 PM
