Yes. Because seeing "Go! TOTODILE!" or "Your CLEFABLE is really happy!" is annoying.
Makes me think that everyone in the Pokemon world yells the Pokemon species names, and speaks normally the rest of the time.

Only Kakuna and Metapod gets named. For obvious reasons depicted here:

Depends on how attached to the Pokemon I am. Sometimes I won't name it when I first catch it, but later on visit the Name Changer Old Guy, and change the names to whatever I please.

Reminds me that all wild/trainer Pokemon names always have all capitalized letters in their names. It bugs me so much I just rename them to having only the first letter of their name capitalized ---
...And then to only make a typo in doing so sometimes....¬､¬

If I didn't have other people within earshot I would totally make a video describing how reading that sounds. Because all caps usually means yelling, so it would be like...
"Hi, I am looking to find a
PIKACHU! do you have a
PIKACHU! to trade with me?"
Imagine screaming JUST the Pokemon names at the top of your lungs...

.: I always name my Pokemons. If they're the ones I like best or am going to use in my party, I try to think of really nice names for them (I want to look at nice names if I'm going to see them all the time). For some pokemon though, or ones I'm going to trade (to be a butt more often than not hehehe), I give them strange names like "Urlover". Ditto is one of my favorites to name this, or "Mr. Pimp" and such like that. xD
I also get in the habit of wanting to name the rival "Urlover" as well. Always gives me great luls. ;3
