Hey, a question...

Jun 18, 2007 20:36

For all of you guys that are collecting UNOWN, and how there's 28 varieties, do any of you pick nicknames for them when you catch them? Like trying to guess what letter they are? I mistook a C for G, actually. XD ( Read more... )

I just name them for what letter they are XD

eevee June 19 2007, 03:56:05 UTC

I named them all their spellings.

frostdemn June 19 2007, 04:01:32 UTC

Eh? Like what? YOO for U?

eevee June 19 2007, 04:27:04 UTC

Yeah; aitch, cue, kay, etc. I was doing it off the top of my head, though, so I probably got a few wrong.

bjornskjold June 19 2007, 11:14:09 UTC

I did that too. AY, BEE, CEE, DEE etc.

I just caught em all, but you know that.

G does not look at all like a G

V also is kind of off

xbenji65 June 19 2007, 05:56:24 UTC

yea, i thought G was a Z.. >_>

I name them for their "Unown" name. Like Nuzzle, Quicken, Reassure..I don't remember the rest.

hunh? I don't think i understand.

did i miss something?

toxilan June 19 2007, 04:54:07 UTC

I think in the Gold/Silver versions, if you got the Unowndex (catch three or five different unown and show it to the scientists outside of the Alph ruins) and then caught an Unown, its info would be put into the Unowndex as well as the Pokedex. The Unowndex showed the Unown letter shape's "name".

So like, A is supposed to mean Angry, B is supposed to mean Bear, etc.

Check Wikipedia for more details. :P

i will do that. I didn't start playing until gen 3, so i missed that stuff. Actually, I only started playing because my nephew was so into it, and I wanted to learn a bit about it, so that i understood what he was talking about. Now I'm more hooked than he is.
