What do you like to name your rivals and characters /pkmn/?This turned out great
PancakeFlapjack didn't fit.
If knew how to hack, I'd totally name every one in his crew THOSE FUCKERS and then all my pokemon OUR SHITBut I always name the rival whatever version I'm not playing. FUCK YOU, OTHER VERSION.
>>9193Then what do you do for the third versions?
>>9202Never had one outside of Platinum. I went with the name of an actual rival.
DicksI wasn't very original.
My rival in HeartGold is named Roberto, but that's mostly because I have a love-hate relationship with Luongo of the Vancouver Canucks. Love him during the regular season, HAET during the playoffs.
I traditionally name them "Rival" simply for the sake of convenience.I did name Barry "Flapjaq" in Platinum, though, and HG/SS Silver earned the name "Giorno" out of my love of bad and/or esoteric puns.
In platinum, I named him Iago, because as of right now he's my most favorite "villain" from any piece of literature (Othello just in case nobody knew)In Red it was Blue >>9193In Crystal it was Jeff (my ex)In my Soul Silver I named him Silver, because I'm unoriginal.and for the other games I forgot what I named them.
When I was 11 or 12: Asshole, Shithead, Faggot, surprised I never used Gaylord. I'd restart my game so many times for reasons I can't remember.Nowadays: I just pick a name off the top of my head, I went with Bill in Pearl because that was the classmate I was talking to at the time, used Damien in SS because it seemed appropriate for the character. Think I used Bill in Plat too, but I can't remember.
I tend to use "Douche" or "do me" as it is amusing in conversation.To me.Cause I'm like 11 years old or something.
I tend to name my rivals, "Barkus," as of late, nickname of a guy I consider to be roughly the closest thing I have to a rival.
I'm dildos at naming, so I simply stick to official names. OP anon is genius.
I just choose names that I think fit the characters. Not that exciting, haha. This guy's name is Liam in my game.
I named him Guile because he sort of reminds me of Street FighterI named Blue Wangus cause he's a total wangI named Silver Douche for obvious reasons
I named the rival in Pearl "Asshole", because I'm immature, and find it hilarious when his mom comes in and asks "Has anyone seen my little asshole?".I named the rival in Heart Gold Sanchez.
Named Silver "Massimo" because he was my favorite rival and I love the name.Can't remember the others, think I just stuck to the computer supplied ones.
"DOUCHE"Always DOUCHE. I name my Pokemon with lowercase letters. I name myself with lowercase letters. My rival is always DOUCHE.
In DPPt I name my player character and rival after my favorite pairings. XD; I also do that in Fire Red from time to time. But in my first Diamond playthrough I named Barry Jason simply because I like that name. And in one of my Fire Red games...I think I named the rival n00b or Dick or something silly like that.In Sapphire and Emerald I name the player after my favorite female characters.
In SS I named my Rival Kanye....it worked so well.....And in Platinum I named him Flash
I named him Akira because I thought it suited him..
I name my rivals girls' names. My rivalguy in SoulSilver is named Cheryl. (I did the same thing to my player character, mind you. His name's Susan.)I think the only time I didn't do that was with Red/Blue. I named him Gary that time because I was like 8 years old and watched the TV show.
Stupid or DumAss. I'm not 11 butt it's still funny.
>>9331>butt
My rival's names are usually my friend's names from my school, except for HeartGold its Silver.
I don't remember what I did when I was younger. I named Barry Horatio because Lysander didn't fit. Don't ask me why I chose those names. I named Silver, well, Silver. Because I love him.
RBY - Gary, Joshua, David. The last two are guys I hated in grade school.GSC - ???, Jerk. Because I'm clever.RSE - NOPE, LOLDPPt - There was a name I originally had for him that I liked, but then I forgot it the instant a friend of mine suggested I use his name. He really does look like a 'Martin.'HGSS - Silver, because fuck, I couldn't think of anything else.
I only named my rival in SS. Named him DOUCHE because seriously he's the douchiest rival in the entire series. Even more than Gary. The guy just steals himself a pokemon.
