I can't nickname Zephyr, she was a Wonder Trade. :roll:

All of my main Pokemon (aside from Decidueye) are Wonder Trades. :lmao:

^I find that fact that you can't change a Pokemon's nickname if it's been traded very annoying. Why, exactly, is that a thing?

What's worse is the fact that you can't give the pokemon a nickname if it came from someone else, even if they don't have one.

^That's the reason why my Vulpix in Moon cannot be actually named Sakura like I wanted. :x

Just do what I do: pick your nickname and ignore the fact that (default nickname) is it's real name, and when your talking about that pokemon out loud, say it's name, and it'll stick eventually. 8)

Selene sounds nice. [The old Greek goddess of the moon.]

I'm not sure. The name originated from the old Greek goddess of the moon [I'm not sure if Artemis/Diana/Cynthia came before or after Selene, or Apollo came before Helios. It's hard to say.]

Selene and Helios came before Apollo and Artemis. Helios passed his sun-responsibilities to Apollo when he felt devastated after the death of his son, Phaithon (or whatever his name is spelled). Selene...I'm not exactly sure.

^What I meant was, which myths came first, or are Helios and Selene just different names for Apollo and Artemis/Diana? Who knows?

I wonder what would be a good name for a male, midnight form Lycanroc.
I've been thinking of naming it Wily, like Wile E Coyote. :mrgreen:
