Best and worst names for Pokemon?

hmmmm the name i always liked the best was feraligatr.................it's just so awesome..............least favourite? i dunno, probably........magneton......yeah i dunno why i just don't like it.....
meh~
 
I have to say the best Pokemon name is Wooper, purely for the fact that it's so much fun to say it's name like the pokemon does. XD Woo-pah!
The worst? I'm up between Hippopotas and Seel. It just doesn't seem like they cared when naming those guys. >>
 
Favourite? Kangaskhan. It would be a wholesome sight to see a giant kangaroo going around and pillaging everything in sight.

Least favourite? Kangaskhan. It would be ridiculous to see a giant kangaroo going around and pillaging everything in sight.
 
The only one that bothers me is Ninetales, because they wasted a perfectly good opportunity to play with the words 'kitsune' and 'fox'.
 
I may have to quote my friend here, who hasn't kept up-to-date with Pokemon since Gen III and was looking through my Pearl PC Boxes:

"Buneary. BUNEARY? Because it's a BUNNY and has EARS?"

I have to say I really like Meganium and Tropius just because my friends and I can't agree on how they're supposed to be pronounced (Muh-GAY-nee-um, MegANN-ee-um, Meg-uh-NEE-um; Tro-PYE-us, TRO-pee-us, TROPE-ee-us). Good times.
 
One of my favorites is Illumise.(Isn't it just fun to say?) Alakazam is cool, too. It just like so magical. I likes it.
The only one I dont like is Spinda. Whenever I say it I sound stupid. think about it. It's spin-DA. Say it with the right noise at the end and you just sound stupid.
 
Seel is just so uncreative. I kind of like Bagon, but I can't help but think about breakfast.

On the flipside, Pikachu and Girafarig are both really cool names. =>
 
I don't know why. I don't know why. I don't know why I just didn't copy the first sentence and paste it again. But, what I want to say is, I don't know why I kept giggling while reading through the whole topic.

Anwayz,
(Some) Worst names:
Ninetales, for zero creativity
Mankey, :(
Zigzagoon, straightlineoon, verticaloon, yadda they don't make any sense
Tangrowth, Tangela sounds better, but Tangrowth???
Regigigas, May the world explode the day I pronounce it right

(Some) best names:
Poliwag, I love to say it fast, over and over and over...
Zoroark, nice word, and fun to say

More soon, probably...
 
Best: Giratina. Yay.

Worst: Hoenn weather trio. The debate about Kyogre's pronunciation (I used to be on the kai-oh-gree side, but most people say kai-oh-ger, so I had to cross over to a avoid looking like an idiot) is irritating - not to mention the whole Rai-qwah-zuh/Rai-qway-zuh thing. Besides, Groudon is just ground with an extra o and some rearranging.
 
I like Gastrodon, Beautifly, and have always thought Ludicolo was amazing. Least favorite, Rattata. It is weird to say and I hate how that Pokemon looks.

Ninetales is rather uninspired, seeing as Kitsunine would have worked much better.

Mime Jr. isn't as stupid as you think: remember that Mr. Mime was uninspired as well, and the names fit together. If Mr. Mime had a decent name, then Mime Jr. would be plain outright intolerable, but he doesn't.

Bonsly and Sudowoodo have pretty witty names, imo.
