Final Submission

Skullarva

Skull + larvae

Pronounced: skuh-lar-vuh

 

[dex]

Final Submission

Grubnaw

A combination of "grub" and "gnaw"

Pronounced: GrubNAW
IPA: grəbnɑ

Reasoning behind the name is pretty simple, grub is another word for insect larva and gnaw means to, well, gnaw. I figured since Miasmaw is probably gonna be taking chunks out of its prey with that massive maw, its prevo can only "gnaw" at what the parents bring back.

Final Submission

Aromaw

Aroma + maw

Pronounced: "uh-ROE-maw"

This name seemed the more popular out of the two. :) As described in the last post, Aromaw -> Miasmaw is a thematic and punny transition, with an aroma evolving into a miasma.

Final Submission

Skullarva

Skull + larvae

Pronounced: skuh-lar-vuh

I'm not sure if it's a problem, but a fakemon named Skullarva already exists in Pokémon Sage.
It's a really good fangame BTW, i'm playing it recently :)

Final Submission

Smaw

A combination of smog, maw and small. Also a shortening of Miasmaw.

[Pinesmoke]

Final Submission

Pneumaw

Combination of pneuma (Greek for “breath,” origin of the word “pneumatic”) and maw.

Pronounced: noo-maw
IPA: ˈnumɔ

I chose this name for Miasmaw’s prevo because pneuma and miasma are counterparts: both words come from ancient Greece, and were the basis for outdated medical beliefs. Pneuma was believed to be a divine substance in the air that encouraged health, whereas miasma was bad air that caused disease.

Final Submission

Reekle

A combination of "Reek" + "Beetle".

I don't have too much to say here; I like when Pokemon names are simple and to-the-point. Reekle manages both while also being cute!

 

[G-Luke]

Final Submission

Nymfang

Nymph + Fang

Pronounced: "nim-FANG"

Nymphs are immature insects that look similar to their adult forms sans wings, while fangs are kinda self explanatory
