OMFG is it really happening?! Yes it's been a while but it's time for a new name-change period!

Pokemon Name Rater

If you would like to change your username, you can do so very soon. As usual this thread is open for a few days before the names can be changed, to give everyone time to see they are coming. You may also wish to post an answer asking for others' opinions on possible names you're considering.

Username changes will open Friday 1st August and close Sunday 3rd.

Username restrictions:

  • The maximum number of characters for usernames is 20. This includes all letters, numbers, symbols and spaces.
  • Due to technical restrictions these 3 characters cannot be used: @ + /
  • Usernames may not contain 'Pokemaster' or any profanity in them.
  • Invisible characters (e.g. zero-width spaces) are not allowed. Regular spaces are fine.

You will keep the username you choose for at least another six months (probably a lot longer lol), so ensure that the name you choose is one that you like!


Name changes are now closed.

Suggestion: why don’t we leave the username changes open for the foreseeable future, especially if you don’t know when they’ll happen again?

Also, reminder about promotions. They’ve been waiting since winter
Because we don't want people changing their name every 5 minutes. It caused too many problems in the past.
First login after god knows when and I missed it by 8 days. Lucky me.

It’s kind of weird that no one actually has ditto as a username

  • ~SporaSporaNoMi~ or ~MushiMushiNoMi~
  • ~Shroomish.D.Spore~

Etc

I decided to make a very brave decision and go from ~Silver~ to ~Silver~.

What do you think?

Edit: Mr. Fish suggested ~Silver~. Maybe I'll go with that! But I'm still not too sure....

Edit Edit: Revlis is a contender, but I might also go to SiIver

Edit edit edit: I am going with siiver

Absolutely terrible name choice.

~Silver~ is a better name to pick.
you're absolutely right. I will consider that in my options.
i suggest ~Silver~
I think... you should pick ~Silver~
~Sliver~, take it or leave it.
what do you mean Sliver
I like Siiver with a capital second i but Si|ver would have been cool too

This is SO AWESOME!

This is the first username change time since I joined (I think) and definitely the first one since I actually understood to some extent how the site works. I've been changing my username almost every time I go on the DB to the most random things. When I changed it to "001" (so it would say "user 001" on my page" I kept trying to put in "froggyfrogsock" on the username bar and then getting momentarily nervous when it didn't work. When I changed it to Froggyfrogsock but with scrambled letters, I forgot what my username was, and started freaking out the next time I tried to log in because I couldn't remember it, but then I realized that I could just put in my email.

Thanks for listening (which you probably didn't) to me talk about my endlessly boring experiences with the DB! Hope I was annoying enough!

The actual point of this answer: I decided at the beginning that before the session ends, I'll just make it froggyfrogsock and not change it anymore (or at least until next time!)

Also why can't I change my username unless I'm on the main section?

by
I did the exact same thing

If you are not seeing my avatar, that's because I changed my email to a legit one.

Anyways, The Pink Cat Chick → Gallade Rules because I love him so much.
