I'm not on the AIM chat room, but I'll see what I can come up with.
I'll just head on over to Serebii.net and...
Naetoru - My first inclination is "Naturtle," as there have been more
turtle pokemon than turtle names already. Seeing it's evolutions,
though, I'd have to name it... eh... Ankylbyta
Hayashigame - Ankylbyta's first evolution. Shall henceforth be called
"Ankylchompa"
Dotaitos - Ankylbyta's final evolution. I will call him...
"Ankylobord," as in "Shmorgishbord," or however its spelled.
Hikozaru - "Sparkanzee," from "Spark" and "Chimpanzee."
Moukazaru - "Flairkanzee," from "flare."
Goukazaru - "Inferkanzee," from "inferno."
Pochama - "Penquire," from "Penguin" and "Squire."
Pottaishi - "Penight," from "Knight"
Penperuto - "Penperor," from "Emperor." Clearly, what the Japanese had
in mind, as well.
Mukkuru - "Quiquail," from "Quequay" (the character from Moby Dick, I
think), and "Quail."
Mukkubird - "Aquail," from "Ahab" (from the same book)
Mukkuhawk - "Moquail," from "Moby Dick."

Rukushio - "Electrikat," from "Electric"
Rentoraa - "Enercat," from "Energize."
Subomi - "Rosbud," as in "Rosebud."

"Rose Red."

Mimiroppu - "Klutzare," from "hare."
Muumajii - "Mischevus," from "Mischevious." Evolution of Misdrevus
Donkarasu - "Donkrow." Evolution of Murkrow. I wanted to call it a
"Pimpcrow" 'cause it looks like a pimp to me, but I doubt it'd fly. No
pun intended.
Nyaruma - "Coiline," from "Coil" and "Feline."
Bunyatto - "Coilaste," from "Coil" and "Baste," an Egyptian cat
goddess. Doesn't sound too much like "Coil-assed," does it?
Riishan - "Teenco." From "tinkle" or "teeny." Prevolution of Chimeco
Sukapuu - "Skunpew," from "Skunk" and "Pew."
Sukatanku - "Skunink," from "Stink." Also, "Skuntank" and "Stintank,"
both from "Tank."
Doomira - "Medaly," from "Medal" and, for no reason, "Melody."
Dootakun - "Medagong," from "Gong."

meaning "Foot."

Hippopotsu - "Hippolicon," from "Hippopotimus" and "Silicon."
Kabarudon - "Hippopoemoth," from "Behemoth."

Yukinooh - "Rediyeti," from "Ready."
Jibacoil - "Magnecore," from "Core," or "Magnegeddon," from
"Armageddon," or "Magnenaught," from "Dreadnaught" or "Astronaught."
Evolution of Magneton. BBBers will agree that the second name fits.
Beruberuto - "Lickiball," from "ball." Evolution of Lickitung.
Dosaidon - "Rhyett," as in "Riot." Evolution Rhydon.
Mojanbo - "Trogela," from "Troglodite." Evolution of Tangela.
Elekible - "Electrabul," from "rubble." Evolution of Electabuz.
Buuburn - "Magmeyser," from "Geyser." Evolution of Magmar.
Leafia - Either "Leafeon" or "Floreon." "Leafeon" sounds and looks
less like "Flareon."
Glacia - "Iceon" or "Glaceon."
Manmuu - "Heaposwine." What's another word for "Pile"? Evolves from
Piloswine
PorygonZ - "Porygon3," just to stick to the current nomenclature,
though its current one is cooler.
Erureido - "Gardeuvo." Just let me say that I think this one looks
totally cool. I saw this dude and said, "Whoa." Anyway, since
Gardevoir ends like "Noir," I figure the male version would end in what
I think is the opposite of Noir, or "Neuvo."
Dainoosu - "Nosego," 'cause I think it looks like it's made of Legos.
Yonowaaru - "Duscitan," from "Titan." Evolves from Dusclops.
Yukimenoko - "Glala." Female version of Glalie
Rotomu - "Teslon," from Nikolai Tesla, the inventor of the Tesla Coil,
among other things. Or we could call it "Roton," after a fake Pokemon
I heard of once.
Yukishii - "Lerna," mispelling of "Learn."
Emuritto - "Emoto," from "Emotion."
Agunomuu - "Volito," from "Volition."
Diaruga - "Chromond," from "Chrono" and "Diamond."
Parukia - "Univearl," from "Universe" and "Pearl."
Hiidoran - "Meteoride," from "Meteorite."
Regigigas - "Regiking" or "Regiga." Aw, who am I kidding? I just
wanted to point out there's a Regigigas.
Giradina - "Anarkaos," from "Anarchy" and "Chaos."
Kureseria - "Crescendra," from "Cresent" and "Dragon," although it's
not a Dragon-type.
Darkrai - "Androgubus," from "Androgenous" and "Succubus" or
"Incubus."
Sheimi - "Corshodge," from "Corsage" and "Hedgehog." Easiest. Rename.
Ever.
Aruseus - "Originus," from "Origin."
Phew! That took a while! I like most of it, though.
