Hey there,
A long time ago, we saw a "problem" with the way names are presented for formes. While the "species" should remain as-is, the chosen name for a forme Pokémon should be the base forme name to stay true to the game. Reviewing all the stuff I never finished and things to do, I've tackled this issue again and I think this is something worth a discussion.
Thing is, when for instance you use a Rotom-Wash, teambuilder would show Nickname: Rotom, Pokémon: Rotom-Wash. In battle, this would be shown as Rotom (Rotom-Wash). So, the ideas are:
Thanks for your input!

Thing is, when for instance you use a Rotom-Wash, teambuilder would show Nickname: Rotom, Pokémon: Rotom-Wash. In battle, this would be shown as Rotom (Rotom-Wash). So, the ideas are:
- Keep it as it is right now: Rotom-Wash, or Nickname (Rotom-Wash) [On tooltip, only shows nickname in battle]
- Show the forme name in parenthesis as if the base species name is a nickname: Rotom (Rotom-Wash) [On tooltip, would display Rotom in battle]
- Update PS so formes are shown below the name: Rotom Forme: Wash, Nickname (Rotom Forme: Wash) [On tooltip, battle keeps only showing nickname, it's a matter of style when showing the forme compared to the previous option]
Thanks for your input!
