The following is a list of words that are banned from being used as Pokémon [[nicknames]] and other player-inputted values in the [[Generation V]] games. Most of the words are sex-related or otherwise considered offensive. They are not case-sensitive, and Japanese words are banned in both hiragana and katakana.

The censor only prevents inputs in which exactly match the keyword. However, previously, when trying to [[trade]] a Pokémon on the [[Global Trade System|GTS]], the keyword only had to be contained in the name. This caused problems with Pokémon whose names contained the keyword, such as {{p|Cofagrigus}}, preventing them from being traded without nicknames, so the filter was eventually removed. However, the filter still prevents some Pokémon from being traded, such as {{p|Nosepass}}.

Additionally, no more than four numerical digits may be included in any text entry field, although in {{game|Black and White|s|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2|2}}, this restriction is removed for [[Pokémon Storage System#Naming Storage Boxes|Box names]] only.

In [[Generation]] {{gen|VI}} and {{gen|VII}}, as well as [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity]], the games use the [[Nintendo 3DS]]'s built-in text-entry filter rather than a filter in the game itself. The Nintendo 3DS filter can be changed by system updates, so the list of censored words varies depending on the 3DS firmware version.
