Pokemon Nicknames
Forum-Index → Suggestions → Pokemon NicknamesI have a suggestion that I think would be good to add for battling; keeping the Pokemon nicknames in battle.
All my teams are based off the Grand Magic Games teams from the anime "Fairy Tail", and I have nicknamed each Pokemon in the teams after a character that would suit them. But when I battle, the names don't show up (take my Emboar renamed Natsu Dragneel for example. When I battle it says "OceanArrow sent Emboar into the battle!" etc. instead of "OceanArrow sent Natsu Dragneel into the battle!") which pretty much defeats the whole purpose of having my teams based off the anime.
I haven't been playing Pokeheroes for very long, but I'm guessing the real names are kept in battling so the opponent can google that Pokemon and find a way to beat it. So maybe to work around this, have that fancy dotted line underneath the nickname, which opens up a bubble with the Pokemon's real name written.
But, it could be optional to have the nickname in battles. Just something you can toggle on or off on the Pokemon's profile.
