04/03/2022 UPDATE (Small changes + 6 new Pokémon)
Greetings to all. The following changes have recently been applied to the thread
:- Updated general Introduction and added trade thread Index (Post 1).
- Merged the Pokémon from the "Legendary Pokémon" sections to their respective generations.
Updated star shiny icon:★Since this thread is meant to list my Pokémon collection as it’s listed on my Pokémon HOME, I’ve decided to use Pokémon HOME’s shiny iconnext to each Pokémon, due to the fact that Pokémon HOME doesn’t recognise star and square shininess and shows this icon under every Pokémon. This also doesn’t create confusion since square shininess doesn’t exist in games like BDSP or PLA, and helps me keep things organised as I only keep my Pokémon on HOME nowadays.
- General nickname revamps and fixes (more to do).
- Some Wormhole Pokémon got recaptured with better spreads via CitraRNG (0 Atk ones).
- Added thread banners. Courtesy of the Pokémon Center website!

#212. “Mifune”
OT: Christian | ID: 001337 | Alola (Sun)
Impish - Technician
31 | 31 | 31 | 0 | 31 | 31
252 HP / 16 Def / 240 SpD
Swords Dance | Bullet Punch | Knock Off | Roost
The nickname is a reference to Mifune (ミフネ), a master swordsman and samurai warrior in Naruto. He wields the katana "Kurosawa" (黒澤, "black swamp") and is widely renowned as a master of Iai — a style of swordsmanship which involves the user rapidly unsheathing his blade to slash the enemies, and then re-sheathing it after completing the attack. Mifune's mastery of Iai is such that Hanzō and others have stated how it was useless to try and perform hand seal-induced techniques against him. The speed and precision of his strikes are able to inflict a lethal blow on his opponent without staining the blade with blood, and even slice open the head of a large summon creature such as Ibuse. "A blade that is kept keen becomes a legend to be inherited by future generations and endures!".

#324. “Terrorpene”
OT: Christian | ID: 001337 | Alola (Sun)
Quiet - Drought
31 | 0 | 31 | 31 | 31 | 0
252 HP / 252 SpA / 4 SpD
Eruption | Heat Wave | Solar Beam | Protect
The nickname is a reference to Terrorpene, an enormous fire turtle featured in the World of Warcraft MMORPG developed by Blizzard Entertainment in 2004. Terrorpene lives in the fire near Sulfuron Spire and is known for being the only lavatortoise to be tamed by hunters. The gray smoke that spouts from volcano on his nose is quite an attraction for those who wish to catch him.

#773. “Sirrush”
Ø
OT: Christian | ID: 122080 | Alola (Ultra Sun)
Naive - RKS System
31 | 31 | 31 | 31 | 31 | 31
252 Atk / 252 Spe / 6 SpA
Swords Dance | Multi-Attack | Crunch | Flamethrower
The nickname is a reference to the Sirrush, a creature from ancient Mesopotamian mythology. It is a mythological hybrid, a scaly animal with hind legs resembling the talons of an eagle, lion-like forelimbs, a long neck and tail, a horned head, a snake-like tongue, and a crest. The Sirrush most famously appears on the reconstructed Ishtar Gate of the city of Babylon, dating to the sixth century BCE. In fact, in 1902 the German archaeologist Robert Koldewey brought the Ishtar Gate to light: a semicircular arch covered with glazed bricks of different colors, built under the reign of King Nebuchadnezzar (605-562 BC), that marked the point from which a very wide road branched off, protected by mighty walls. On the door there were three animals depicted: the lion, the rimi (aurochs) and the Sirrush.

OT: Chris | ID: 828229 | Alola (Ultra Moon)
Timid - Beast Boost
31 | 31 | 31 | 31 | 31 | 31
252 SpA / 252 Spe / 6 SpD
Stealth Rock | Power Gem | Sludge Wave | Knock Off
The nickname is a reference to Carl Gustav Jung (1875-1961), a Swiss psychiatrist and psychoanalyst. His theory, known in Jungian psychology as either death of the ego or psychic death, can fittingly relate to Nihilego as a creature with no ego, only having the Id, the portion of the human psyche governed by impulses and pure instincts. The death of the ego is an absolute dissolution of the ego into the unconscious, a complete loss of subjective self-identity: consciousness is emptied and the ego is swallowed, because "its contents are attracted by the unconscious as by a magnet". Jung goes on to explain it as a “shift back to the existential position of the natural self”. Ego death is an extremely powerful experience which can be incredibly rewarding: "By sacrificing the self and the separation that is inherent to selfdom, you are gifted the keys to the kingdom of unity and selflessness. You destroy yourself and gain the world".

Timid - Torrent
31 | 31 | 31 | 31 | 31 | 31
252 SpA / 252 Spe / 6 SpD
Hydro Pump | Ice Beam | Dark Pulse | U-turn
Maryām (מרים) is the Judeo-Amaraic variant of the biblical name Miriam (Prophetess Miriam, the sister of Moses). The name may have orginated from the Egyptian language and has a long tradition of scholarly etymologisation: Eusebius of Caesarea, translates the name as "drop of the sea" (stilla maris in Latin), from Hebrew מר mar "drop" (cf. Isaiah 40:15) and ים yam "sea".

Jolly - Guts
31 | 31 | 31 | 2 | 31 | 31
252 Atk / 252 Spe / 6 Def
Obstruct | Knock Off | Facade | Close Combat
The nickname is a reference to Ziggy Stardust, the fictional character created by English musician David Bowie, which was Bowie's stage persona and alter ego during 1972 and 1973. In various interviews, Bowie confirmed that the '50s rocker Vince Taylor was the main inspiration for his character. Ziggy Stardust is an androgynous, alien rock star who came to Earth before an impending apocalyptic disaster to deliver a message of hope. His exuberant fashion made the character and Bowie himself staples in the glam rock repertoire well into the 1970s, defining what the genre would become.

Hyia Christian, this is a voluntary stick-up. I've spotted some of your mons that I'm interested in, and will now commence the robbery - if you agree!
I'm interested in your Typlosion “Adranos”, Furret “Diana”, and your Qwillfish “Harisenbon”. Could you please CMT for them, and let me know if anything catches your eye?
Additionally, if you still have them in Gen 7, I would strongly prefer to receive them there: but it's okay if this is no longer the case.
Thanks!

Greetings, Blizz! I can get these Pokémon for you, no problem at all. Also, you can have them for free since you have considerably helped me in the past, trading me Pokémon for free in your GAs but also trading multiple Pokémon of yours for just one Pokémon of my collection.
And yes, I generally keep copies of the Pokémon I get in Gen 7 as well so I can trade them to you in Gen 7, if you prefer so. I will DM you on Discord too coordinate this.

Nasty Plot | Sludge Bomb | Air Slash | Heat Wave
The nickname is a reference to Paul Carruthers, a chemist and physician appearing in The Devil Bat, a 1940 black-and-white American horror/howcatchem film produced by Producers Releasing Corporation (PRC). Carruthers is offered a $5,000 bonus from his employers for his contributions to the company, a pittance compared to the million dollars in income the company earned from his work. Embittered and insulted, he seeks revenge and develops a system in which ordinary bats are enlarged to massive size, training them to be drawn to a new, pungent aftershave he is testing. After many murders, his plan is discovered by reporter Layton who dumps a sample of the aftershave on Carruthers, leading the bat to attack and kill its own master.

Her title is "Master of Weapons", as the viera are known for their extraordinary craftsmanship, grace, and intellect. She has a "rabbit tail" style decorative piece at the small of her back, even if not noticeable as her hair obscures it most of the time. "You've let your eyes betray your heart".

31 | 31 | 31 | 31 | 31 | 31
252 Atk / 252 Spe / 6 Def
Stealth Rock | Head Smash | Wood Hammer | Sucker Punch
The nickname is a reference to José Arcadio Buendía, the family patriarch and main protagonist in One Hundred Years of Solitude, a 1967 novel written by Colombian author Gabriel García Márquez. After a life spent as a charismatic, forceful and always-curious visionary man, at the end of his life he becomes mad and, to keep the town safe, he is tied to a chestnut tree in the backyard of his house, thereafter speaking only Latin. In this way, he is also euphemistically tied to the family tree, a recurring scheme and theme in the whole novel. The Safari Ball, Gen 8+ exclusive on Sudowoodo, and its camouflage/military pattern can link to the the long interlude of civil wars, military uprisings and banana-republicanism, which is included in chapters 6-9.

Wataame (わたあめ) is a Japanese feminine name, being also the word for "cotton candy". The inspiration for this nickname came from the Jumpluff sprite featured in the Gold&Silver Spaceworld 1997 demo where Jumpluff is pictured as a pink cat with a ball of cotton upon its head, resembling a cotton candy. The Love Ball matches with shiny Jumpluff color palette but, hey, could match with a cherry flavored cotton candy as well!

The nickname is a reference to Trevor Belmont (トレバー・ベルモンド), one of the main protagonists in the Netflix original series, Castlevania. He is a monster hunter and the last descendant of the Belmont family, who were (wrongfully) exiled and excommunicated. One of his weapon, the Morning Star, found at the Belmont Estate during his plan to defeat Dracula, is a whip consisting on a long metal chain with its tip endsing in a heavy metal ball with spikes protruding from it. "Trevor has a quick whip and even quicker wit. He's not one to be messed with". The Fast Ball was chosen because it connects to the light orangish of shiny Ferrothorn's body, and, ironically, was also chosen to contrast with its nature and IV spread.

Hey hey, how about your Dream Ball Horsea for it? I will DM you on Discord when I can trade (which should be in 4 hours from now).
05/31/2022 UPDATE (Pokémon HOME compatibility + 7 new Pokémon)
The Pokémon HOME compatibility for the BDSP and PLA games is out for 2 weeks now, meaning that my Ribbon Masters finally have the Twinkling Star Ribbon and they are back to their Ribbon Master status
. I've also slightly changed the order of how I list their ribbons, to reflect how they are similarly shown on Pokémon HOME. The compatibility also means that a plethora of old Pokémon (mainly the ones obtained in Gen 7 and 8) can now be fully ribboned with the BDSP returning ribbons! I'm also almost done in completing this work. Lastly, I'm also currently revamping the Pokémon that have been cut from SwSh but are coded in the BDSP games that have old obsolete moves like Hidden Power, Return, Pursuit etc. These Pokémon are being updated in the main sections of the thread.New Pokémon:

Info about Nikephoros
"Πλάσματα μιας ημέρας! Τι είναι ο καθένας;
Τι δεν είναι κανείς; Ένα όνειρο μιας σκιάς
Είναι το θνητό μας ον. Αλλά όταν πρόκειται για άνδρες
Μια λάμψη λαμπρότητας από τον ουρανό,
Τότε στηρίζεται πάνω τους ένα φως δόξας
Και ευλογημένες είναι οι μέρες τους."
(Pindar, Pythian 8)
Nikephoros is my seventh personal Ribbon Master project from Gen 3, featuring every possible ribbon from Gen 3, 4, 6, 7 and 8. Colosseum shiny Metagross has always held a special place in my heart because it is the only Metagross that you can Ribbon Master that can be obtained outside of a Pokéball in the Generation 3 games: the one you find at Steven's House after Defeating Elite Four in RSE is, in fact, in a plain Pokéball. Even if Colosseum Metagross is not as laborious to obtain as Raikou, it still requires a few tricks to do in battle to advance your battle frames in a consistent way. I decided to run the Choice Band set on Nikephoros, Metagross's staple set since the Gen 3 era, with Explosion obtained via BDSP, otherwise incompatible with the Master Rank ribbon. Nikephoros (Νικηφόρος) is a Greek male name, meaning "the one who carries victory".

Είναι το θνητό μας ον. Αλλά όταν πρόκειται για άνδρες
Μια λάμψη λαμπρότητας από τον ουρανό,
Τότε στηρίζεται πάνω τους ένα φως δόξας
Και ευλογημένες είναι οι μέρες τους."
(Pindar, Pythian 8)
Nikephoros is my seventh personal Ribbon Master project from Gen 3, featuring every possible ribbon from Gen 3, 4, 6, 7 and 8. Colosseum shiny Metagross has always held a special place in my heart because it is the only Metagross that you can Ribbon Master that can be obtained outside of a Pokéball in the Generation 3 games: the one you find at Steven's House after Defeating Elite Four in RSE is, in fact, in a plain Pokéball. Even if Colosseum Metagross is not as laborious to obtain as Raikou, it still requires a few tricks to do in battle to advance your battle frames in a consistent way. I decided to run the Choice Band set on Nikephoros, Metagross's staple set since the Gen 3 era, with Explosion obtained via BDSP, otherwise incompatible with the Master Rank ribbon. Nikephoros (Νικηφόρος) is a Greek male name, meaning "the one who carries victory".

The nickname is a reference to Tatsumaki (タツマキ), the S-Class Rank 2 professional hero of the Hero Association appearing in the Japanese superhero franchise One-Punch Man. Tatsumaki is the most powerful esper in the series and her psychokinetic output surpasses even Geryuganshoop. In addition to having significant telepathy abilities and the capacity to erect psychic barriers, Tatsumaki's true power was shown when she was capable of effortlessly stopping a very powerful bombardment attack from Boros' giant spaceships as well as sending them back with the same, if not more, force. "When the time comes, don't go expecting someone to come save you."

The nickname is a reference to Naoto Date (伊達 直人), the main protagonist of Tiger Mask, a Japanese manga series written by Ikki Kajiwara. Naoto, known as Tiger Mask on the ring, was a feared heel wrestler in America that wore an identifiable tiger mask over his head during the matches. In the manga, Naoto was originally part of an evil organization named “Tiger’s Cave” that would train wrestlers in exchange for royalties. Ultimately, he ended up leaving the organization and set out to establish his career on his own, using his earnings to donate money to the orphanage he grew up at. This is the Raikou that roams Johto after it is disturbed by the player in Ecruteak City's Burned Tower.

Barong is a panther-like creature and character in the Balinese mythology of Bali, Indonesia. Entei's lion-like appearance and masses of fur make it appear similar to this kind of feline spirit. This is the Entei that roams Johto after it is disturbed by the player in Ecruteak City's Burned Tower.

The nickname is a reference to Shokotan, the nickname by which one of the hosts of Pokémon Sunday, Shōko Nakagawa (中川翔子), was known. The OT Shokotan (しょこたん) was given to the event Tropius distributed at Pokémon Centers in early 2007 to sponsor the show.

The nickname is a reference to Higuma (ヒグマ), a mountain bandit and the leader of the Higuma Bandits in One Piece. Higuma was an arrogant, brutish man, always ready to boast about himself and brutalize the weak. He wore a long red coat over a white shirt, black trousers, and a golden necklace. Both Krookodile's shiny palette and the Ultra Ball connect well with the black and yellow motif of Higuma's necklace.

The nickname is a reference to Akana Sōemon, the samurai appearing in Kikka no Chigiri (菊花の約), a tale included in Ueda Akinari's Ugetsu Monogatari (雨月物語). One day, a Confucian scholar named Hasebe Samon meets Akana Sōemon, a seriously ill samurai and decides to take care of him. A deep friendship is born between both of them and, once recovered, the samurai leaves Hasebe's house, promising to return before the end of autumn, for the chrysanthemum festival. Unfortunately, Akana is captured and imprisoned; this makes it impossible for him to keep his promise to his friend. So he decides to kill himself, in order to reach his friend in the form of a ghost and tell him that nothing could prevent him from keeping such an important promise.

06/13/2022 UPDATE (7 new Pokémon)
Managed to (finally) fully ribbon my Arceus on BDSP and completed another Ribbon Master project so here's another update :>
Since BDSP RNG is relatively new, I've added Arceus proof exclusively for this update under each entry.
Darkrai and Shaymin are coming up next! (along with a special Quilava project from Colosseum I've been working on recently which I plan to Ribbon Master and then evolve in Hisui).

The nickname is a reference to Haniel (הניאל, "Joy of God"), an angel in Jewish lore and archangel of the sephirah Netzach. Haniel is also sometimes reported as the angel who led Enoch to heaven and he is typically represented as an androgynous with broad gray wings, wearing an emerald green dress and a brown lantern. The name, which probably derives from the Hebrew hana'ah, meaning "joy, happiness", was chosen as Togetic is partly based on an angel and it's known as the "happiness" Pokémon, appearing before kindhearted people and showering them with happiness. This is the Togepi that hatches from the Mystery Egg returned to the player by Professor Elm's aide in the Gold/Silver/Crystal Virtual Console games.

128 HP / 252 Atk / 128 Spe
Swords Dance | Extreme Speed | Shadow Claw | Recover
In the mythology of William Blake, Urizen is the embodiment of conventional reason and law. Urizen's features are similar to the conception of Yahweh, the God of the Old Testament. The name Urizen could derive from the English "Your Reason", the wisdom recognized by his experience; or from the Greek verb "ορίζειν", "to delimit". Urizen has clear similarities with the philosophical figure of the Demiurge, an artisan-like figure responsible for fashioning and maintaining the physical universe in the Greek schools of philosophy. He is usually depicted as a bearded old man holding a compass in his hands, element borrowed from Masonic symbolism which he uses to create and constrain the Universe and which refers to God as the "Great Architect of the Universe".
(Shiny catchable Arceus has at long last been made available in the BDSP games after 16 years from Diamond and Pearl's Japanese release, however, I decided to give Urizen a nostalgia touch by specifically RNG abusing the 17 IV in SpA, to reflect one of the Adamant spreads that you could have used to catch Arceus in the original DPPt games if the Azure Flute had been released by Game Freak in those games.)

In the Vedic religion, Ṛta (ऋत "order, rule; truth; logos") is the principle of natural order which regulates and coordinates the operation of the universe and everything within it. In the hymns of the Vedas, Ṛta is described as that which is ultimately responsible for the proper functioning of the natural, moral and sacrificial orders. It can also be interpreted as the "cosmic order" to which the whole reality is subject and can be viewed as a prelude to the more widespread and subsequent term of Dharma.

Info about Raanana
Raanana is my eighth personal Ribbon Master project from Gen 3, featuring all the Gen 3, 4, 6, 7 and 8 ribbons (bar National Ribbon, only obtainable on Colosseum/XD purified Pokémon). A few years after obtaining Oceania, my Gen 4 Milotic caught a few months after I joined Smogon in 2009, and learning RNG Abuse in Generation 3, I thought it was finally time to get my hands on a shiny Milotic from the Hoenn region, which would have become Oceania’s beloved sister right after the moment I would have captured her. Water-type Pokémon are my favourites and Milotic is my favourite Water-type Pokémon, hence a Ribbon Master Milotic from her game of origin could not be missing from my collection. I checked that a Bold 0 Atk spread was possible and hittable in Pokémon Emerald thanks to the Synchronize mechanics, and RNG abused a square shiny savefile with 00350 as TID, to match Milotic's Pokédex number. Luckily, this spread had multiple encounter slots, and I eventually managed to run into a wild shiny Feebas. After securing her in a Dive Ball, Raanana's ribboning journey finally began! Milotic, in a certain sense, has been my thread mascot throughout the generations and I really wish she will be included in every Gen 8+ Pokémon game. The nickname Raanana (רַעֲנָנָּה) is a Hebrew feminine name, meaning "rebirth". I decided to pick this nickname as Raanana has been trained and ribboned during the challenges that the world is recently facing, marking the desire to start a new, positive and prosperous cycle.

Hey there, mate Gaudi,
indeed, long time no see!
Sure, I’d be happy to trade you a copy of Ṛta (Let me know on which game you’d like it - it was purposely obtained for PLA but it can work on BDSP too with a Pixie Plate and with Earth Power instead of Hyper Beam).
We can also move this conversation to Discord if you’d like~

In the painting, the female figure is perfectly central, seen from behind, with her arms spread in a gesture that seems to indicate either amazement or admiration.

The nickname is a reference to the Koh-i-Noor (کوه نور), one of the largest cut diamonds in the world, weighing 105.6 carats. It is part of the British Crown Jewels and is currently set in the Crown of the Queen Mother. Probably extracted around 1300 from the Kollur mine, one of the famous diamond mines of ancient Golconda, in the state of Andhra Pradesh in India, the legend says that if a man owned the gem, he would be the ruler of the world, but he would suffer from great misfortune; if a woman owned it, she would be very lucky instead. The legend derives from the fact that in history all the male rulers who came into possession of the diamond either died shortly after obtaining it or lost the kingdom.

This pearl, which belonged to Doña Inés de Bobadilla, the female governor of Cuba, was one of the most special pieces of jewelry of the Spanish crown in the early 18th century. The pearl was famous for the perfect shape, size and luster of its mother-of-pearl. Like La Peregrina, La Huérfana was also found off the Panamanian coast, not in an oyster, but in an oyster bed. La Huérfana was, unfortunately, lost in a fire in the mid-18th century.

The nickname is a reference to Nyarlathotep, a fictional character created by American writer H. P. Lovecraft. He is a malignant member of the Outer Gods, a pantheon of malevolent cosmic beings from the outermost edges of the universe. Nyarlathotep enacts the will of the Outer Gods, and is their "messenger, heart and soul", "the immemorial figure of the deputy or messenger of hidden and terrible powers". His goal is to sow despair and woe wherever he treads, thereby spreading the chaos that he was born from and to engulf the light of God in his darkness. "And where Nyarlathotep went, rest vanished, for the small hours were rent with the screams of nightmare".

The artist's chromatic choices are concentrated on warm colors: the orange invades the whole sky and illuminates an uncontaminated nature, without an apparent trace of human presence.

The nickname is a reference to the Koh-i-Noor (کوه نور), one of the largest cut diamonds in the world, weighing 105.6 carats. It is part of the British Crown Jewels and is currently set in the Crown of the Queen Mother. Probably extracted around 1300 from the Kollur mine, one of the famous diamond mines of ancient Golconda, in the state of Andhra Pradesh in India, the legend says that if a man owned the gem, he would be the ruler of the world, but he would suffer from great misfortune; if a woman owned it, she would be very lucky instead. The legend derives from the fact that in history all the male rulers who came into possession of the diamond either died shortly after obtaining it or lost the kingdom.

La Huérfana was, unfortunately, lost in a fire in the mid-18th century.

Hiya, yeah, everything in this thread is available and up for trading. I’m currently on holiday and I will be back at home in 5 days or so, I will message you when Ravatogh is ready to be picked up~
Sure thing, I will try to find a good legendary to trade for it in the meantime.
EDIT: Sorry, I'm being stupid for the hundredth time, I don't have a trade thread yet lol.
Anyway, please ignore the request.

Hey fam, usually the “don’t post in my thread if you don’t have a trade thread” rule is mainly directed towards the people who directly CMT in my thread, as I don’t have an easy way to check Pokémon that are up for trading. In this case I’m giving you a Pokémon for free so this rule doesn’t count. I’ll be back tomorrow evening so let me know if you’d still be interested in that Pokémon or in any other Pokémon.Sure thing, I will try to find a good legendary to trade for it in the meantime.

Thanks for the clarification. I will be available tomorrow, although I'm not sure specifically when. (My timezone is GMT -8, if it helps.)
Drop me a PM when available and we will get this done!
Hi Christian,
You have a very impressive collection of Pokemon! I've really enjoyed reading about some of the nicknames (as someone who doesn't usually nickname Pokemon myself) and their origins.
I don't have a CMT of my own, but I have bred a few Pokemon recently that I may be able to offer in return for the two below? These included: Treecko, Torchic, Scorbunny, Ralts and Lileep.
Interested in: Nithiliam and Gruosi. (Gen8 if possible)

Seh (שֶׂה) is the word most often associated with lambs that were used in the ancient Hebrew system of sacrifice and atonement, especially in the Exodus, the second book of the Bible. The most famous use of "Seh" was found in the story of the Passover, when Moses faced the Pharaoh of Egypt and God sent plagues on behalf of the Hebrew people. "[...] On the tenth day of this month each man is to take a lamb [Seh] according to the house of his father, a lamb [Seh] for each household. And if the household is too little for a whole lamb, they must share one with their nearest neighbour, having taken into account the number of souls there are".

Ndakazi featured in several TV shows and films, including a documentary named "Virunga," but it was her photobomb in 2019 that brought her global fame. In the image, Ndakazi is pictured alongside another female gorilla, named Ndeze. The pair appear to be naturals in front of the camera; one stands proudly in a power pose with her feet wide apart, while the other leans forward to make it into the shot alongside Virunga National Park ranger Mathieu Shamavu. A parallelism can be made between Ndakazi and Slaking, which both take a pose typical of mankind.

Proof
Ein Sof comes from the Hebrew term אין סוף (infinity, or limitlessness) and can be conceived as the opposite of what is conceived as "being", the transcendental par excellence, beyond the finite and the infinite, the limit and the boundless and even beyond all the anthropomorphic representations of God. In the Kabbalah, it is understood as God before any self-manifestation, and can be translated as "unending", "(there is) no end". The term is found for the first time in the text of Azriel that, sharing the Neoplatonic belief that God cannot have any desire, thought, word or deed, emphasized by it the negation of any attribute. Of the Ein Sof, nothing ("Ein") can be grasped ("Sof"-limitation). It is the origin of the Ohr Ein Sof, the "Infinite Light" of paradoxical divine self-knowledge, nullified within the Ein Sof prior to creation.

"Take three pints of the best cream, boyle it with a blade of Mace, or else perfume it with orang flower water or Amber-Greece, sweeten the Cream, with sugar let it stand till it is quite cold, then put it into Boxes, ether of Silver or tinn, then take Ice chopped into small peeces and put it into a tub and set the Boxes in the Ice covering them all over, and let them stand in the Ice two hours, and the Cream Will come to be Ice in the Boxes, then turne them out into a salvar with some of the same Seasoned Cream, so sarve it up at the Table".

The nickname is a reference to Wuuthrad, a unique two-handed battleaxe that appears in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. It was originally wielded by Ysgramor, the legendary leader of the Five Hundred Companions, during the Nordic-Falmer War which took place across much of Skyrim and Solstheim in the Merethic Era. Wuuthrad was forged by Ysgramor's son, Yngol, the day after the Night of Tears. Wuuthrad has blades on both sides and a long handle, ending in a sharp point at the top and is re-forged by Eorlund Gray-Mane after all the fragments of it are retrieved from the Silver Hand. "Ysgramor named his axe Wuuthrad, which means "Storm's Tears" in the language of Atmora [... ]".

252 SpA / 252 Spe / 6 HP
Dynamax Cannon | Sludge Bomb | Flamethrower | Meteor Beam
Proof
Ein Sof comes from the Hebrew term אין סוף (infinity, or limitlessness) and can be conceived as the opposite of what is conceived as "being", the transcendental par excellence, beyond the finite and the infinite, the limit and the boundless and even beyond all the anthropomorphic representations of God. In the Kabbalah, it is understood as God before any self-manifestation, and can be translated as "unending", "(there is) no end". The term is found for the first time in the text of Azriel that, sharing the Neoplatonic belief that God cannot have any desire, thought, word or deed, emphasized by it the negation of any attribute. Of the Ein Sof, nothing ("Ein") can be grasped ("Sof"-limitation). It is the origin of the Ohr Ein Sof, the "Infinite Light" of paradoxical divine self-knowledge, nullified within the Ein Sof prior to creation.

03/20/2023 UPDATE (General nickname revamp + 2 New Pokémon)
I would like to extend my special thanks to Eppie for providing useful parents and for giving important advice related to Gen 9 breeding/obtaining flawless mons in general. Currently working on both expanding my Gen 9 collection and on future Ribbon Masters (Snorlax I'm looking at you
).
Also, removed both Manu and Ancalagon from the Trophy Case section, as I would only like to display Pokémon that could obtain the Battle Ribbons there + to not clog up too much the section.
