Nickname: Difference between revisions

At least two [[Pokédex holder]]s in each region name their Pokémon. Quite often, the Trainer will nickname his or her Pokémon with a particular pattern, such as how {{adv|Crystal}} ends most of her Pokémon's nicknames with the "ee" sound, and {{adv|Gold}} ends most of his Pokémon's names with "bo". Several other characters nickname their Pokémon as well; for example, [[Brock]]'s six Geodude are each named after a number, from "Geoone" to "Geosix".

Unlike in the games, nicknames of owned Pokémon can be changed when the owner of the Pokémon is changed. Examples of this include [[Mr. Stone]]'s {{p|Castform}} being named Fofo by {{adv|Ruby}}, [[Gurkinn]]'s {{p|Gengar}} being named Garma by {{adv|X}}, and {{kal|Grace}}'s Rhyhorn being named Rhyrhy by {{adv|Y}}. Also, nicknames may be removed by the new Trainer, as {{adv|Silver}}'s Kingdra was nicknamed ''Tat-chan'' when she was under {{adv|Green}}'s ownership.
