I've come up with a few by putting Ground/Desert related words together with words that could be related to Sandslash

Dryspine
Hotclaw
Groundslash
Earthspike
Dustclaw

I like Dustclaw and Dryspine but I'm not totally sure...

Blaziken - Cinderslash
Mightyena - Scarouge - combination of 'scar' and 'rogue'
Tropius - Timberwing

Currently trying to think of a nickname for a Sandslash...
Thinking something to do with its Ground typing, and the spines/spikes on its back... :/

In my opinion, Blaziken will always be better because he was my first Pokemon, and his deisgn is awesome too. But I did enjoy a playthrough on Platinum with Infernape, named Chimpchamp.

So, I've been reading a few Nuzlockes and most people use Pokemon that they've traded over as Eggs.

How do you do this right at the start of the game? I'm wanting to do a playthrough on White with a Petilil. Is there any way I can trade one over before I get the C-Gear, or any way to get an Egg for Petilil?

I have chosen Flygon as the last member of my team, with Earthquake, Dragon Claw, Flamethrower and U-Turn (until I can get Solarbeam).

I've never liked Purrloin. It's evolution, Liepard, is slightly better.

Thanks! I'll consider using Haxorus, it seems like a solid Dragon type. I was thinking about using a Psychic or Ghost type as my last Pokemon. I've never used a Ghost type before, so I think it would be fun to use one...
Any suggestions? :)

So, to those people out there who do nickname their Pokemon, what are your favourite nicknames you've used? Why did you pick them? Do they have a meaning?
Here are a few of mine:

Samurott - Tirradya (Teer-Ad-Ya) - Female
Tirranna means Water, and Adya means First. Samurott was my first Pokemon on White 2, and is a Water Type Pokemon. I think it sounds really nice ;)

Reuniclus - Echoplasm (Echo-Plasm) - Male
I thought that Reuniclus looks like a single being inside a bigger copy of itself. This reminded me of an echo because an echo is a copy of a sound repeated over and over. Plasm comes from cytoplasm.

Sawsbuck - Horae (Oh-Ray) - Female
Horae means Goddess of the Seasons. Sawsbuck changes with the seasons and I thought it was fitting.

Ferrothorn - Acacia (Ak-Ah-See-Ah) - Female
Acacia means thorny. I thought it was a simple, feminine name that describe Ferrothorn perfectly.

Scrafty - Kerina (Care-Ee-Na) - Female
Keri means dark, and Dina means warrior. I fused them together to make Kerina, meaning dark warrior, which describes Scrafty's Dark/Fighting type.

Mamoswine - Adarilei (Ad-Ah-Ril-Ay) - Female (Shiny Pokemon)
Ada is taken from Adana meaning Earth. Ril is taken from Amarilla, meaning Shiny, and is like Amarillo, which is yellow in Spanish (Shiny Mamoswine is yellow). Ei is taken from Eira which means snow.

My nicknames usually take a long time to decide on because I like to play around with different names and see how they sound together... Do you like simple nicknames or complex ones?

General Pokémon Discussion / Re: best out of all types
« on: August 23, 2013, 17:48 »
I'm just basing this on my favourite types to use, not in order of 'best' or 'strongest'. I'll do my top 5 :)

1. Fire. I've always loved the Fire types, ever since I picked Torchic as my first Pokemon! I prefer double-typed Fire Pokemon than pure Fire. I've always liked the Fire/Fighting Pokemon but I hope that they'll change it up a bit in Gen 6.
2. Ice. My favourite Ice type is Mamoswine, which is Ice/Ground. Ice is great for taking out the Dragons, but obviously has major weaknesses, although I've always liked them. Except Jinx. Eww.
3. Electric. Having only one weakness, Ground, Electric seems like a pretty formidable type to me. My favourite pure Electric types are Luxray, Ampharos and Blitzle, although Zebstrika doesn't have the same appeal.
4. Ground. Ground types always come across as quite bulky, which I like. They have good attacks though, and some awesome designs to boot.
5. Dark. I've always been a bit attracted to having a Dark type in my team. I don't know why I like them, I just do.

Rules:
-The first Pokemon seen on each Route can be caught. If it flees or faints, there are no second chances. This rule doesn't apply until after the Trainer can catch Pokemon.
-All Pokemon must be nicknamed to form stronger bonds between Trainer and Pokemon.
-If a Pokemon faints, it is considered dead. It must be boxed and not used in battle. It can, however, be used for HM purposes.
-A black out = game over.
-In-game trades are acceptable.
-Pokemon will evolve naturally. Evolution must not be stopped, through use of Everstone or by pressing B.
-If the Trainer requires a HM move to pass a certain point in the game, and the Trainer doesn't have any Pokemon that can learn the move, another Pokemon may be caught, but must be boxed and not used in battle.
-The Trainer's starter will depend on the last digit of the Trainer ID. 1-3 = Grass, 4-6 = Fire, 7-9 = Water and 0 = free choice.

On with the Nuzlocke!

Well, as my mum gave it to me I guess I'd better make a start on this journal. I guess I'd better introduce myself. I'm Gemma. I live with my mum in Twinleaf, which is this little town in Sinnoh. I've lived here all my life, and to be honest, I think I'll be living here forever. Twinleaf has a few houses and is surrounded by tall grass. The nearest town is Sandgem, and then on from that there's Jubilife. I've never been further than Sandgem though... It's annoying. I'd like to travel the world, see the sights but I'm not allowed. My mum's a bit scared of me running off and leaving her, I guess. My dad left Twinleaf a couple of years ago to see the world, and he hasn't come back since. I don't blame him really. If I could get away from this place, I'd never return. Never.

I guess that sounded a bit horrible, but it's true. I just wish I could visit somewhere exotic. Far away. But it's never gonna happen. Not unless I get my own Pokemon. And what's the chances of that?

So, I'm planning on starting a new Pokemon White game, and I've never used Snivy so I'm using him as my starter. I've got my five other Pokemon, but I'm not sure what movesets or items to use and which Abilities I should try and get. I'm not breeding any Pokemon by the way.

Serperior
Seismitoad
Darmanitan
Klingklang
Conkeldurr

I felt Brandy's soft head on my hand. I looked down at him. "Brandy?" I said. Upon hearing his name, he gave a little squawk. "I'm sorry," I told him. He looked up at me, as if he knew what I was saying. I picked him up, and turned to face my other Pokemon. They were stood together, a team; Spore, Foamy, Splish and Bristle all together. As they should be. I placed Brandy on the ground, next to Spore. "See? You are meant to be together," I sighed. I felt a hand on my shoulder, and turned around to see my mum.

"You're back," she said. We stared at each other for a second, before she looked down at the ground. I thought I saw something in her eyes... guilt? "I heard about... about your Whismur," she said and gripped my shoulder tighter. "I'm sorry," she said. I lifted her chin so that she was looking straight at me again.

"You knew," I said. "You knew!" my voice became shrill, angry. "You knew all along yet you didn't tell me! How could you do this to me mum? How?" I screeched. I could hear my Pokemon shuffling backwards, scared at my sudden outburst of anger.

"Yes, I knew. But I wanted you to go on a journey, to have the chance of freedom and adventure. I didn't tell you because I thought that you wouldn't go if I told you... and I see now that I was right. Here you are, abandoning your Pokemon..." she said.

"I'm not... I'm not abandoning them! I'm freeing them! I can't let them get hurt!" I retaliated. I was hurt that my mum could suggest such a thing. She walked over to the Pokemon, stroking each one gently before picking them all up.

"They trust you, Gemma. They have put their faith in you. You can't let them down." She gave me all five of them, and hugged me, enveloping me and my Pokemon in a loving embrace. "You are together for a reason," she said.
