Have you ever made a nickname for a pokemon you just have to laugh at every time you see? Until recently I never nicknamed pokemon but now I think it's quite amusing to name them and send them off on wonder trade.
What I want to know is what amusing names do some of your pokemon have?
For me, I have a ton of Eevees, some names include Bill Cosby, Kodak film, The Void, and The Civil War. I run out of creative ideas while breeding so these came about.
Right now I'm training a Litwick named Pat Sajak, which is disappointing cause I bred one named Mitt Romney right before and Sarah Pailin right after.

Well, for me I name all of my gen 1 starters after the starter that beats them. Bulbasaur=Charizard, Charmander=Blastoise, Squirtle=Venusaur. I bred a whole bunch of Bulbas, named them Charizard and then Wonder Traded them away~
Also I've been breeding Litwicks, so for a while I would name them after whatever time it was, like 11:59PM. I also Wonder Traded those away too~

Oh I got a Bunnelby and Inkay named Mewtwo, and a Plusle named Gyarados.
Also have an Inkay names Jay Leno from a friend, we have way too much fun.

When I was about 7 or 8 years old, I had an Ampharos nicknamed "Got Lucky." I told my friend that my Ampharos could beat his Blaziken. He disagreed. We set up a battle, Ampharos opened up with a critical hit Thunder, OHKOing him. I laughed, but even at that age I agreed that was unfair and agreed to a rematch. Ampharos then opens with a critical hit OHKO Thunder again. As soon as that battle was over, I went back into my game and renamed every one of my level 100 Pokemon "Got Lucky." I even still have my Got Lucky Swampert from that day and age, and it will be transferred to X and Y as soon as Bank comes out.
Though recently, I was asked to nickname a Froakie and a Metagross. I named them Glenn and T100. Points if you understand both those references.

I started playing Y last night and immediately I'm actually nicknaming every Pokemon that I caught, which ends up with me apparently having a really strange naming system for Y. I'll just list off the nicknames for all the Pokemon that I've currently caught. Braixen- Lilabye Fletchling- Filbring Scatterbug- Skitterfly Pikachu- Chupaloo Panpour- Pourapon Pansage- Sanapan Pansear- Searapun Caterpie- Catterwaul Pidgey- Piddletin Zigzagoon- Zigglepin Weedle- Deezix Farfetch'd- Pexdel Litleo- Teluvio Bunnelby- Bugglefel Burmy- Wurwavel Bidoof- Doofadoo Azurill- Bizubi Dunsparce- Twicklebi Flabebe- Babale Ledyba- Bedypool Skitty- Szila Budew- Wellbeu So yeah... As you can see I definitely have a strange naming convention going on in Y right now. XP

Well, when I was five/six and I was going through my first run of Emerald, I caught a Zigzagoon near Fortree City. Of course,I thought it would be funny to call that Zigzagoon SEX. That's right... Oh, and I have a lot of other weird nicknames in Emerald. There's a Solrock with 10 Hs as its name and lots of Pokémon with Oivz in their name (including a Weezing called Oivz3*male sign*). :S If we're counting Pokémon Showdown, my favourite nickname is Franziska for my Glaceon (try and get the reference). But yeah, my Franny is incredibly lucky, and barely ever gets OHKOed. And wwe can't forget Rawk Hawk the Hawlucha.

New tendency for me in X/Y is to use french names...Like "châtaigne" which is 'chestnut' for my Chespin XD

I give my Pokemon regular US/Mexican names, with two tradtions: a Pokemon named Sam and every Squirtle is named Wayne. Though in Y, I started using Japanese names too. Also tried giving each of my Pokemon names (EVERY SINGLE ONE). It gets hard a lot, but I feel it adds so much more.
