Fire type nicknames

Fire types are some of the coolest Pokémon in the franchise and some of the rarest (thanks to Water supremacy) so if you’re picking a nickname, you’ll want something that really stands out.

Nicknames

My methodology for picking fire themed nicknames is as follows:

• I will list some games from the franchise and note down characters from each
• I will then assign Pokémon I think would match well with those characters
• It might be that some characters lend themselves well to more than one Pokémon, particular if they’re based on regular animals such as fish or horses
• I will only mention fully evolved Pokémon (if they evolve) but if you don’t plan to evolve the Pokémon in question, the name should still fit
