City Names is a unique playthrough conducted by Rockapheller in the main series Pokémon games. In each playthrough, the player character is given the name of a city, and the regular party members are assigned nicknames based on a specific theme. For example, in the initial playthrough following this theme, which emulated Pokémon Legends: Arceus, the player character was named Athens, after the capital of Greece. The Pokémon within the party were named after Greek gods and goddesses from Greek mythology.

The alternative playthrough is Brandt where the male player character only catches Pokémon that correspond to the game of the generation it is based on. His female counterpart is Brandy who follows the same rules as Brandt except the Pokémon Brandt has already trained.

Trivia

  • Out of 18 available types, so far only 12 types have been trained in city names runs.

  • The player characters during the city runs do not have any restrictions in terms of regular party members, except the Pokémon that have already been trained by Brandt and Brandy.
  • Out of 12 Pokémon, 7 are male and 5 are female.
  • Athens in Pokémon Legends: Arceus is the only trainer to have a shiny Pokémon in the regular party.
