As in the games, nicknaming Pokémon is optional. It is very seldom that main characters have nicknamed their Pokémon, leaving nicknaming largely unique to [[characters of the day|one-time characters]]. Often, these characters possess more than one of a species of Pokémon, and nicknaming is to provide distinction, such as in ''[[EP101|Get Along, Little Pokémon]]''. At other times, the nicknames help to drive the plot, as in ''[[EP100|Wherefore Art Thou, Pokémon]]''.

The only main characters to possess a nicknamed Pokémon are {{an|Misty}}, who has a {{p|Luvdisc}} known as [[Caserin and Luverin|Caserin]], and [[James]], who has a {{p|Growlithe}} called [[Growlie]]. [[Ritchie]], a recurring character, also uses nicknames.
