I always had fun with this game so I'm going to try to revive it.
First, I select three Pokemon. These will be the Pokemon that people will be nicknaming. Sometimes the Pokemon might have a theme, and if this game does well, later on nicknamers can have a say in what they want the next set to be.
People think of nicknames for all of the Pokemon (You may exceed the 10-character limit of the games and make your nicknames as long as you want, but don't go rambling on) and post saying them, with five nicknames each maximum. Do not categorise the nicknames when you're posting them, the judge will decide what category they think the nicknames fit into.
If there is enough submissions, after 72 hours the nicknaming will be stopped, so the judge can decide on the winners. If given the option, this is when nicknamers can say what they want the next set to be.
The judge then posts with the winners of each of the categories: Random, Creative, WTF, and Best Nickname. Unfortunately, for the time being there won't be trophies for the winners, unlike previous Nicknaming Contests, but that may change.
Another set is chosen and either edited onto the end of the judges post or posted seperately. The cycle begins again.
Rules
1. Follow all SPPf rules.
2. As said before, the maximum nicknames you can have per Pokemon is five.
3. Only post after the nicknaming has stopped for good lucks, predictions and suggesting the next set.
4. If two people use the same nickname and it wins, they both get the award unless it is clear that one of them copied.
5. Again, as said before, you can use as many characters as you can for the name.
6. Anyone can play.

Here are the records of the winners in each set.

Bans
Disobeying the rules earns you warnings, then strikes, and if you keep ignoring the rules, you'll earn yourself a ban from the game.
Aw, this game holds a special place in my heart, and I always feel a little happier when I see a new version pop up. Best of luck with your version, Ponymon!

If you are a true Swiftie (a Taylor Swift fan) like me and not scared to show it, "Drop Everything Now" and copy and paste in your signature.
Second, there's some good nicknames so far, but I need more to judge. If you're reading this right now and you haven't nicknamed yet, take some time to nickname. Don't be afraid.
Ohh I love nicknames :3 I've had some good ones over the years!
Lucario: Abby [I currently use this name on my female lucario] Cobalt Oracle Aaron
Levany Mantis
Grace Mystery Serenity
Skuntank Redolent Feteocide Malodorous

Lucario: Iron, Man Of Aura, Bossgodora.
Leavanny: Vein, Sewer, Calmer, Hahakomori.
Skuntank: Firefart, Stinker, Killer Of Smell.
For Lucario, I used Aggron's Japanese name, and the last name I used for Leavanny is Leavanny's Japanese name.
Any nicknames posted between now and the start of the next set won't count. Post suggestions and predictions now. If you post a successful prediction and suggestions, its likely that at least one of the suggestions will be chosen. Results will be posted soon.
Be nice for one of mine but I'm cool with it if it's not.
anyway...suggestions: Lopunny, Pikachu (female) and and Shiny Crobat, lol
