flareon - nicknamed BANE FLAME ♂
sassy nature - it's strong willed
game: pokemon XD: gale of darkness
i liked flareon and ik its not the best eeveelution but i love how fluffy he is. i think i changed the name after i evolved him but im not sure it was a hot minute ago
sceptile - no nickname ♀
quirky nature - it has a sturdy body
game: sapphire
from a copy of sapphire i bought, the og player's name was Nicole and it seems like she had a friend named terry, she had a lot of pokemon from them. this was one of them, level 100
togekiss - no nickname ♂
lax nature - it's highly curious
game: ???
this pokemon was from branden? i think that was a friend of mine, his real name was smth else tho. it says he's from kanto but i honestly don't remember how i got him, i'm thinking maybe heart gold or smth idk
flygon - nicknamed ALABASTER ♂
hasty nature - it nods off a lot
game: pokemon colosseum
this is my actual son. he was from the first EVER pokemon game i played, and that was pokemon colosseum on the gamecube. i think u get a vibrava as a shadow pokemon, i had a cheat code disc that i played with but im p sure this guy was unaffected by that
arcanine - no nickname ♂
sassy nature - it's alert to sounds
game: fire red
the OT name is landon, i think this was another one from my friend. he was level 100 and caught in a master ball, he's pretty cool but i think when i got him he was missing the pre-evolution moves rip
weavile - no nickname ♀
bold nature - it likes to run
game: diamond
This pokemon was from the first game of diamond i played, i have a few from this game. i thought i had turtwig as my starter but recently i found that i had an infernape so ig i restarted and changed my starter? but turtwig is still my favorite for sure. anyway this one is caught in a master ball too bc i wanted them to be special lmao
some runner up pokemon that i would have included if there was space + i had the motivation:
moltres - MO.MO. - a moltres from the first fire red game i played through, my friend helped me catch them and i was gonna name all the legendary birds something to that effect. he wasnt amused lmao but i never actually got around to it
shiny ponyta - named icy, that was my first shiny but i lost them when i sold my first copy of diamond. i bred another shiny with ivs and named them the same thing as a nod towards that
uxie - from my diamond game, i caught them in an ultra ball while i was helping with a school flea market kinda thing. i was excited abt it but my friend thought it was dumb lmao
charizard - from a game of fire red i let my friend borrow, im p sure he restarted the game but this one was left over on his new save file. my first charizard was named kiki (i thought the blue symbol meant it was a girl, bc blue was my favorite color)
clefairy - a little pink friend from my first playthrough of pokemon black / maybe black 2
eevee - named kristoffer, from heart gold. i never evolved him and i wanted to save him for the next eeveelution that came out; i didnt feel like sylveon fit him but if there isnt a new one next generation i might evolve him
