Everyone's got a name or at least something close to it. But do you guys know what your names actually mean, or the reason you were given that name? We give pokémon names to set them apart, but does the way you name yours mean anything special? I just named this guy Lemon Twist since he reminds me of striped lemon candy.

[It’s been a boring day, for once Killua didn’t feel like doing something insane. Instead he’s just laying on his Dunesparce.]

It's interesting when you think about it: someone or you yourself has been given this word to identify by and it could have some really deep mean behind it. It could be something that a person thought sounded cute but in the end it's pretty sucky for you. For example, someone could have named their kid after a word that sounds cool yet it could mean horse-shit in the language its from.

I sort of lucked out with the way my parents named me and my siblings, but it has me wondering about everyone else. So tell me what your names mean.

Nah, I didn't choose. Just— [ he gives a shrug ] I dunno. Hatched with it.

[ thinking, though . . . ]

Guess it can mean one clownish motherfucker.

[ heheh honk honk ]

They be real chill with 'em, though. Guess harshwhimsy's the only one that's a little salty, but . . . That motherfucker's always salty.

[ he says it fondly, though. oh, would he love to just hang peacefully with that venipede . . . one day . . . ]

So you just had the name when you were uh hatched? Sound pretty convenient.

[He is so unsure of what motherfucker could mean in that context.]

Some pokemon have a preface when it comes to names. I don't know your Harshwhimsy, so it could be anything.

I guess, yeah. And, uhhh— Aight, hold on a sec . . .

[ if he only remembered where he kept his pokeballs— ah, okay, he thinks ( thinks?? ) it's this one. he kind of just . . . drops it on the ground at first, mistaken for a full ball when it's an empty on. uhhhh . . .

okay so maybe it's this one—

and with a flickering flash of light, out comes a venipede! ]


'Sup my salty frien— [ the venipede doesn't even let him finish, though— giving a loud hiss, clicking its antennae together and crawling to a corner. gamzee stares for a moment, then, he gestures. ]

See? Dude's a harshy.

Oh I have one of those, I named them Bitter pill. You didn't really do anything to set off that reaction. [At least he knows what the pokemon is now.]

Why don't you bribing him with food? That use to work on Uncle Pissed. [Uncle pissed was an angry mafia assassin not an angry bug.]

[ maybe not right now, but on the day they met . . . well, let's just say harshwhimsy's got an extreme aversion to face paint. ]

Like . . . Berries?

Something better then a plain old berry.

[He picks up a small plastic bag to the left, emptying the contents in his palm. In his hand are a colorful array gummies.]

My friend and I sell all sorts of sweets. These are evo-gummies they are made just for pokemon.

All the pokemon that try them seem to think they're awesome if it any indication. The evo-gummies is just one of the pokemon only items in our shop..
