As in the games, nicknaming Pokémon is optional. It is very seldom that main characters have nicknamed their Pokémon, leaving nicknaming largely unique to [[Character of the day|characters of the day]]. 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, like in ''[[EP100|Wherefore Art Thou, Pokémon]]''.
