>>29688855If you have multiple of the same species, then yes. Also a lot of people on farms with tons of cattle and shit will have ID tags on their animals, which is essentially a name.
Pokemon also can't be told apart visually because all models are exactly the same save for a few and shinies, so nicknames are one of the few ways of telling multiple pokemon of the same species apart.
Also, you're a faggot for not nicknaming every pokemon you catch.
