"You should be able to renickname pokemon from trades"

I get why it started out with sentimental roots. That fit well with the time, seeing as the only way you could trade pokemon was with friends, one on one, usually with a link cable. However, now that you can trade with literally anyone at anytime via the GTS, it loses that personal flair.I'm only saying this because I'm looking to trade some 'mons, and I have to wade through countless pokemon nicknamed 'machamps.com' or 'gengars.com'. It's nothing but advertisements, and I would absolutely hate using any of them in battle. An advertisement nickname completely devalues the pokemon imo. It's so frustrating and I just needed to vent somewhere. 😤 via /r/pokemon https://ift.tt/3kPAMmD
