Explanation:
Guys, I love nicknaming Pokemon. I love it even more than breeding, raising, and getting my ass kicked online. I love it so much that I have a nickname planned for every single Pokemon I intend to raise, which is QUITE A LOT.

So I thought I'd make a game out of it.

Guess the species of the Pokemon I nicknamed and state the game series the nickname is from.

Rules

1. All nicknames are from other video games (with one notable exception).
2. Pokemon are fully evolved (unless otherwise stated).
3. If a name is specific to a gender or form, it will say so.
4. Use of Google is allowed!
5. Only one guess per post. Edits and double posts don't count.
Bonuses: Vary case-by-case, but always relate to info already established.

Scoring
Guess the Game: 1 pt
Guess the Pokemon: 3 pts
Guess both at once: 5 pts
Bonus answers: 5 pts

Current: This time I nicknamed my Pokemon...
IT'S OVER!

I don't have multiples of any one thing unless gender is involved.

So let's start with an easy one, okay? This time, I nicknamed my Pokemon...Bombchu. In this form, at least.

You might be overthinking it. One generation ago, I wouldn't have needed to mention a form for this Pokemon...

Right! And the game the name is from?
Zelda (Wind Waker first I think)

there's 27 games in the main series, raichu is available in all of them.

Close enough! It was an item in Ocarina of Time first, a type of enemy in Majora's Mask second, and then rats holding bombs in Wind Waker were called that.

But now I hope we have the gist of it and I'll manage stuff.

EDIT: Name list and scoreboard added! Further nicknames will be picked by RNG.

This time I nicknamed my Pokemon...Nruff.

And no, it's not Mamoswine either. ;)

I can tell you are trying your very hardest.

It bears a mention here that not all these translate over *exactly*. I do my best to pick fitting names, and coming up with my list was surprisingly difficult at times. In our current case, while Nruff is a boar and there are boar-like Pokemon, the one I gave the name to may share other similarities with Nruff.

Anything else come to mind?

Rephrased, while Nruff is a boar, the Pokemon may share other traits and similarities without actually being a boar itself. ;)
